	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>The Home Office does not centrally collect data on the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder among serving police officers or former police officers. However, Home Office officials continue to consider the latest academic research on policing wellbeing, including in relation to trauma.</p><p>The role of a police officer can be challenging, and individuals may be exposed to traumatic incidents. It is the duty of Chief Officers to ensure the welfare of their officers, supported by the College of Policing. The College of Policing published guidance on trauma in policing in February 2018, ‘<em>Responding to trauma: a practical guide.</em>’</p><p>This Government takes police wellbeing very seriously and has invested in programmes to provide direct support to officers, including Mind’s Blue Light Wellbeing Programme which provides targeted support and information. In 2017 we also awarded £7.5m to the College of Policing from the Police Transformation Fund to pilot, and if successful, fund a national welfare service. As part of work to develop this service, the College of Policing are overseeing a pilot led by the Metropolitan Police Service which is focussed on trauma support.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 20/11/2018 16:16:14 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford

	question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if he will publish the advice used to inform his Department on the requirements that (a) the decision to prescribe medicinal cannabis products must be made by a specialist doctor and (b) medicinal cannabis products may only be prescribed when the patient has an unmet special clinical need that cannot be met by other treatments.
	tabling member constituency	North Norfolk

	uin	188750
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/11/2018 answer text <p>The prescription of these products by doctors on the Specialist Register of the General Medical Council (GMC) and only where there is an unmet clinical need follows the principles used by the Interim Expert Panel on cannabis-based products for medicinal use. This approach was agreed by senior clinicians on the Expert Panel, Chaired by Dr Michael McBride, Chief Medical Officer for Northern Ireland. This approach was subsequently supported by the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs (ACMD) in their advice to the Home Secretary on rescheduling cannabis. The ACMD advice has been published and is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/further-advice-on-scheduling-of-cannabis-derived-medicinal-products" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/further-advice-on-scheduling-of-cannabis-derived-medicinal-products</a></p><p>Any unlicensed medicines, including cannabis-based products for medicinal use, will be supplied under long-standing arrangements for the supply of what are known, in healthcare settings, as ‘specials’. This process is underpinned by the Human Medicines Act and, outside of clinical trials, only allows these unlicensed medicines to be prescribed where there is an unmet clinical need. This restriction is in place because unlicensed medicines have not been through the same quality, safety and efficacy tests as licenced medicines.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 12/11/2018 17:05:51 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd
