	answer	answer answer text <p>The Government believes that animals should only be used when there is no practicable alternative and it actively supports and funds the development and dissemination of techniques that replace, reduce and refine the use of animals in research (the 3Rs), in particular through funding for the National Centre for the 3Rs, and also through ongoing UK-led efforts to encourage greater global uptake of the 3Rs. Advances in biomedical science and technologies – including stem cell research, in vitro systems that mimic the function of human organs, imaging and new computer modelling techniques – are all providing new opportunities to reduce reliance on the use of animals in research.</p> question first answered 05/02/2019 15:11:37 answering member 4021

In doing so the FRC must adhere to the requirements set out in statute. Unquoted companies are required to use accounting standards issued by the FRC, including FRS 102, when preparing their accounts under the Companies Act, except where they choose to use International Accounting Standards.</p> question first answered 05/02/2019 16:18:18 answering member 2616

	answer	answer answer text <p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) ensures that when Regular Armed Forces personnel leave Service they are well supported to translate their acquired skills, experience and qualifications into their next career in civilian life. The skills Service Leavers possess are in demand from UK employers who recognise the benefits of bringing this talent into their organisations. The vast majority of Service Leavers make a smooth transition from military to civilian life and do not require the support of Third Sector Organisations (TSOs).</p><p> </p><p>The Ministry of Defence has no plans to share the personal details of all Service Leavers with Third Sector Organisations (TSOs). Systematically sharing Service Leavers’ data with TSOs would be a breach of the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) and, even if done with consent, would present a very significant administrative burden to TSOs as around 15,000 Service personnel leave the Regular Armed Forces each year.</p><p> </p><p>Service Leavers potentially requiring support are referred to the MOD’s Veterans Welfare Service (VWS) who can provide relevant signposting to TSO support. The VWS works collaboratively with a range of statutory and voluntary agencies on individual casework in supporting veterans. Referrals are routinely made to a range of organisations, including ex-Service charities, but only with the express consent of the individuals, with only the appropriate levels of information being provided within the referral, in line with GDPR policy.</p> question first answered 04/02/2019 16:40:55 answering member 1487
