	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/10/2014 answer text <p>Good progress has been made on introducing flexible ticketing. The Thameslink, Southern and Great Northern (TSGN) rail franchise includes an obligation to introduce carnet-based season tickets on smartcards by 30 September 2015. The Essex Thameside franchise includes a similar obligation to introduce flexible season tickets and carnets. We plan to trial flexible ticketing through a combination of research and analysis, as well as evaluation of data from these flexible ticketing schemes. Conclusions around price, flexibility, the impacts on operator revenue and other ticket prices will be central to any decisions on wider roll-out.</p> answering member constituency Devizes answering member printed Claire Perry question first answered 28/10/2014 15:51:31 answering member 3974 label Biography information for Claire Perry

There is anecdotal evidence of increasing waiting times in some areas. We do not know whether or not this is due to an increase in referrals or in the prevalence of mental health conditions but will be seeking further information by commissioning a survey into the prevalence of mental illness in children and young people.</p><p> </p><p><br> <br></p><p> </p> answering member constituency North Norfolk answering member printed Norman Lamb question first answered 28/10/2014 14:48:00 answering member 1439 label Biography information for Norman Lamb
