answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/05/2016 answer text <p>For all data collected by the National Health Service there is a standards approval process. This is managed by the Standardisation Committee for Care Information (SCCI), a subgroup of the National Information Board. All mental health data standards are approved via this process and result in an Information Standards Notice being issued which mandates Electronic Patient Record System suppliers and providers of NHS funded services to collect and submit the data.</p><p>The Mental Health Services Data Set reference is SCCI0011 (<a href="http://www.hscic.gov.uk/isce/publication/SCCI0011" target="_blank">http://www.hscic.gov.uk/isce/publication/SCCI0011</a>). It should be noted that this standard relates to the specification for data flowing from NHS-funded care providers to the Health and Social Care Information Centre for secondary use purposes. The standard has been designed so that it includes only data which can be derived from local clinical records and only data items which need to be directly collected. It also supports the principle that data is collected once and used many times.</p><p>In relation to data quality, the Department and NHS England successfully worked with Improving Access to Psychological Therapies providers to ensure consistent data quality. We will take a similar approach as we continue developing the new mental health dataset and would expect the five-year data plan which will inform future data collections on mental health to consider data quality.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 23/05/2016 13:56:48 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many and what proportion of clinical commissioning groups increased their spending on children and young people's mental health as a proportion of their overall budget in 2015-16; and how many are forecast to increase such spending in 2016-17.

uin	37373
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/05/2016 answer text <p>For 2015-16 we do not hold details on the increase in spend by clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) on children and young people’s mental health. However a detailed and robust assurance process was set up and 123 Local Transformation Plans to improve children and young people’s mental health and wellbeing at local level were submitted to NHS England during 2015-16. This process covered every CCG in England. An assurance process was established with detailed financial tracking arrangements to ensure that the additional money was spent for the purposes intended and that locally determined key performance indicators are being met. No funding was allocated without full assurance in place.</p><p>For 2016-17 we are currently collecting planned spend on mental health services as part of NHS England financial planning processes. Programme level spend, including children and young people’s mental health spend, will be monitored routinely throughout the year and any adverse variances from agreed plans will be escalated through the routine financial reporting.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 23/05/2016 13:49:15 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

uin	37423
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/05/2016 answer text <p>The Department, its agencies and non-departmental public bodies are committed to developing their staff and equipping them with the skills and knowledge to carry out their work. Away-days, other similar team-based development activities and very occasional residential training all make a contribution to such development. This type of development activity is typically arranged by individual teams within the Department, its agencies and non-departmental public bodies. No central records of these events are held, and to collect this information would incur disproportionate costs.</p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 23/05/2016 10:30:50 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison

uin	37328
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/05/2016 answer text <p>Should a person have to leave a care home, the Care Act requires the local authority to carry out an assessment of their needs. The local authority must decide if the person has eligible needs by considering the outcomes they wish to achieve, what their needs are and how these impact on their wellbeing.</p><p>Where a person is assessed as having eligible care and support needs – for example, for care and support, public assistance with the cost of care, help with arranging care or information and advice – those needs must be met by their local authority.</p><p>For a person placed in residential care by a local authority, the authority would continue to have a duty to meet their needs and to arrange alternative care services. Should a person be able to fund their own care but lack capacity to arrange it, the local authority has powers under the Act to meet their needs.</p><p>Statutory guidance issued under the Care Act sets out when a local authority should use these powers.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 24/05/2016 09:43:56 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
