answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/03/2018 answer text <p>Southport and Ormskirk NHS Trust was one of over 300 National Health Service schemes that applied for capital funding provided in the autumn Budget for Sustainability and Transformation Partnerships (STPs) transformation schemes. The spring and autumn Budgets last year announced that additional capital funding will be made available to support NHS STPs in delivering improvements in their infrastructure to support transformation of services, support their ability to better meet demand for local services and drive efficiency improvements. Provisional funding for the first 37 successful schemes was announced in July and November 2017.</p><p> </p><p>The Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust application was one that did not score sufficiently high against the criteria to be taken into the cohort to be considered for the next round of funding. NHS Improvement and NHS England informed the Trust via the Cheshire and Merseyside STP of the outcome in December 2017 and advised that where schemes can be strengthened these can be considered through the future opportunities for STPs to access future capital funding tranches. NHS Improvement has also worked with regional teams to enable systematic feedback to STPs on how their schemes might be strengthened.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 08/03/2018 17:11:35 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/03/2018 answer text <p>There has been no assessment made on whether work-related activity includes (a) considering referrals to professional services, (b) researching local self-help centres and support groups appropriate to a claimant’s health condition and (c) looking at the Expert Patient Programme online and listing reasons on how it could benefit a claimant.</p><p> </p><p>Requirements agreed between work coaches and claimants are specifically designed to help the claimants engage with work, in whatever way might be appropriate for that individual. The requirements must be reasonable and they are tailored to the claimant’s individual needs. For many of our claimants work preparation activity involves addressing their particular challenges, which can include managing their health condition. We would not ask a claimant to carry out an activity which would carry a risk to the health of the claimant, nor would we ask for a claimant to undergo medical treatment as part of their requirements. We work hard to build supportive and open relationships with our claimants so that we can agree support tailored in the most effective possible way.</p> answering member constituency Truro and Falmouth answering member printed Sarah Newton question first answered 06/03/2018 16:28:21 answering member 4071 label Biography information for Sarah Newton
