	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/04/2019 answer text <p>The UK leads the world in our long-term support for comprehensive sexual and reproductive health and rights, including safe abortion. Research shows that restricting access to abortion services does not make abortions less common – it only serves to make them less safe, risking women’s and girls’ health and lives through dangerous, backstreet abortions. At least 8% of maternal deaths worldwide are caused by unsafe abortions. Millions more women and girls are left with injuries and disabilities as a result.</p><p> </p><p>The UK’s position is that safe abortion reduces recourse to unsafe abortion and thus saves lives, and that women and adolescent girls must have the right to make their own decisions about their sexual and reproductive health and well-being. We will continue to uphold our evidence-based approach to women’s health services, including – as permitted within local laws – supporting safe abortion.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 15/04/2019 16:16:42 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin

The ADAPt Programme is jointly led by NHS Digital and the Private Healthcare Information Network (PHIN) in partnership with stakeholders from the Department, NHS Improvement, NHS England, and the Care Quality Commission.</p><p> </p><p>The programme has served to develop good working relationships between PHIN, NHS Digital and key stakeholders. The first phase focuses on ensuring that independent hospitals and National Health Service private patient units are submitting robust, complete and accurate data to PHIN, and that performance measures already required to be published by Order of the Competition and Markets Authority can be achieved as quickly as possible. The second phase will ensure the data flows from independent providers into NHS Digital, just as it does from NHS providers, enabling consistency in measurement and understanding of both risk of harm and health outcomes for patients wherever they are treated.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 15/04/2019 12:38:56 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
