answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/10/2024 answer text <p>It would not be appropriate for the Government to comment on individual claims or cases whilst there is ongoing litigation. It is right that such matters follow the appropriate legal process, which can take time. There are, however, currently no plans to launch a consultation on increasing the limitation period for court claims relating to COVID-19 vaccines.</p> answering member constituency Gorton and Denton answering member printed Andrew Gwynne question first answered 30/10/2024 15:12:47 answering member 1506 label Biography information for Andrew Gwynne previous answer version 13329 answering member constituency Gorton and Denton answering member printed Andrew Gwynne answering member 1506 label Biography information for Andrew Gwynne

It does not prejudice the right of the disabled person to pursue a claim for damages through the courts. Other Government support remains open to claimants with a disability or long-term health condition, including Statutory Sick Pay, Universal Credit, Employment and Support Allowance, Attendance Allowance, and Personal Independence Payments.</p> answering member constituency Gorton and Denton answering member printed Andrew Gwynne question first answered 21/10/2024 15:23:16 answering member 1506 label Biography information for Andrew Gwynne

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2024 answer text <p>The closure of the footpath in this location is because there are breaches in the banks of the Hampshire Avon along Winkton Common upstream of Christchurch. These breaches have worsened over the last 6 months because of the exceptionally high-water levels in the river.</p><p> </p><p>The Environment Agency (EA) is working with the Meyrick Estate, South West Water (SWW), Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole Council (BCP) and Natural England (NE) to understand and mitigate the long-term implications. We are jointly exploring potentially significant environmental benefits in the form of new wetland habitat, but there are a number of important considerations, such as assets owned by SWW which run across the common.</p><p> </p><p>While the EA is neither responsible nor funded to maintain the banks of the river in this location, we are supporting Natural England in their work with the Meyrick Estate to identify a long-term alternative route for the footpath. NE have worked with the Meyrick Estate on a Countryside Stewardship Higher Tier application which will include a review of public access in this area and aim to identify a new sustainable route for the footpath.</p><p> </p><p>We recognise that the situation is frustrating for those who want to access the Avon Valley footpath, but changes in river levels associated with climate change do mean that the historic route is likely to be unsustainable.</p> answering member constituency Coventry East answering member printed Mary Creagh question first answered 21/10/2024 11:31:12 answering member 1579 label Biography information for Mary Creagh
