However, it does collect data on the conclusions recorded at inquests.</p><p> </p><p>Coroners cannot by law investigate cases in which a child has not lived independently of its mother. They can open an investigation if there is any doubt over whether the child has lived independently, once they have received a report of a death. They can also investigate perinatal deaths which occur in the six days following birth. The Chief Coroner, HHJ Peter Thornton QC, is considering actions to improve consistency and good practice in relation to neonatal deaths.</p><p> </p><p>The table below sets out the number of inquest conclusions which were recorded as stillbirths.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/06/2015 answer text <p /> <p>The National Offender Management Service (NOMS) has a comprehensive drug strategy for prisons, which includes elements to both reduce the demand and supply of drugs in prisons. The success of the strategy is illustrated by the reduction of drug misuse in prisons, as measured by the random Mandatory Drug Testing (MDT) programme, which has declined by 17.5 percentage points over the past 17 years, despite the fact that NOMS is testing for more drugs than previously. Positive rates were 7.8% in 2009/2010 and 6.9% in 2014/2015.</p><p> </p><p>The table below shows the 81 prisons in England and Wales that reported no drug misuse, as measured by random MDT, in at least one month of the 2014/15 financial year.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="4"><p><strong>Prisons that recorded no positive random MDT results in </strong></p><p><strong>at least one month in 2014/15</strong></p><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Ashfield</p></td><td><p>Full Sutton</p></td><td><p>Lowdham Grange</p></td><td><p>Swinfen Hall</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Askham Grange</p></td><td><p>Gartree</p></td><td><p>Low Newton</p></td><td><p>Thorn Cross</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Bedford</p></td><td><p>Garth</p></td><td><p>Maidstone</p></td><td><p>Usk</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Blantyre House</p></td><td><p>Glen Parva</p></td><td><p>Moorland Open</p></td><td><p>Wakefield</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Brinsford</p></td><td><p>Grendon</p></td><td><p>Mount</p></td><td><p>Warren Hill</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Bronzefield</p></td><td><p>Guys Marsh</p></td><td><p>New Hall</p></td><td><p>Wellingborough</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Brixton</p></td><td><p>Haverigg</p></td><td><p>North Sea Camp</p></td><td><p>Werrington</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Buckley Hall</p></td><td><p>Hindley</p></td><td><p>Norwich</p></td><td><p>Wetherby</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Bure</p></td><td><p>Hollesley Bay</p></td><td><p>Onley</p></td><td><p>Whatton</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Chelmsford</p></td><td><p>Holloway</p></td><td><p>Peterborough Female</p></td><td><p>Whitemoor</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Coldingley</p></td><td><p>Hull</p></td><td><p>Peterborough Male</p></td><td><p>Winchester</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Dartmoor</p></td><td><p>Humber</p></td><td><p>Prescoed</p></td><td><p>Woodhill</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Deerbolt</p></td><td><p>Huntercombe</p></td><td><p>Portland</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Drake Hall</p></td><td><p>Isle Of Wight</p></td><td><p>Ranby</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>East Sutton Park</p></td><td><p>Kennet</p></td><td><p>Rye Hill</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Elmley</p></td><td><p>Kirklevington</p></td><td><p>Send</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Erlestoke</p></td><td><p>Lancaster Farms</p></td><td><p>Spring Hill</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Featherstone</p></td><td><p>Leyhill</p></td><td><p>Stafford</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Feltham</p></td><td><p>Leicester</p></td><td><p>Standford Hill</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Foston Hall</p></td><td><p>Lincoln</p></td><td><p>Stocken</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Ford</p></td><td><p>Lindholme</p></td><td><p>Styal</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Foston Hall</p></td><td><p>Littlehey</p></td><td><p>Sudbury</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Frankland</p></td><td><p>Long Lartin</p></td><td><p>Swaleside</p></td><td><p> </p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 03/06/2015 13:19:36 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/06/2015 answer text <p>Following a public consultation, fees were introduced in Employment Tribunals to reduce the burden on the taxpayer of paying for Employment Tribunals and to encourage parties to seek alternative ways of resolving their disputes. <br><br>The Government has ensured that fee waivers are available for those who cannot afford to pay, as well as diverting people away from potentially acrimonious hearings, where possible, through a new early conciliation scheme which has already been used by over 60,000 people in its first six months.<br><br>The Government is currently considering the options for a review of Employment Tribunal fees. A further announcement will be made in due course.<br><br></p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 02/06/2015 16:45:57 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
