answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/02/2016 answer text <p>Sir Bruce Keogh, NHS England’s Medical Director, has undertaken a review of the National Clinical Director (NCD) resource designed to focus clinical advisory resources on areas where major programmes of work are currently being taking forward, or areas identified as priorities for improvement. As a result of the review, NHS England has proposed to change the way in which clinical advice is received in speciality areas in the future.</p><p>Where there will no longer be a specific NCD role, NHS England will secure expert clinical advice from its Clinical Networks and through its relationships with professional bodies and by appointing clinical advisors. For neurology it is planned that access to advice will be through clinical leads and members of the NHS England-funded neurology clinical networks, the Neurology Clinical Reference Group and Royal Colleges. It is expected that these new arrangements will be in place from 1 April 2016.</p><p>The Neurology Intelligence Network (NIN) is a joint partnership programme between Public Health England (PHE) and NHS England to support the generation and dissemination of neurology related health intelligence. PHE currently funds the on-going design, development and management of the NIN.</p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 11/02/2016 17:08:45 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/01/2016 answer text <p>The term 'deportations' refers to a legal definition of a specific set of removals. Deportations are a specific subset of removals which are enforced either following a criminal conviction or when it is judged that a person’s removal from the UK is conducive to the public good. The deportation order prohibits the person returning to the UK until such time as it may be revoked. Published information on those deported is not separately available. As such, the question has been interpreted as referring to enforced removals. In an enforced removal, it has been established that a person has breached UK immigration laws and / or has no valid leave to remain in the UK. They have declined to leave voluntarily and the Home Office enforces their departure from the UK.</p><p>The following table provides the total number of enforced removals of asylum cases, from Q1 2010 to Q3 2015.</p><p>In the year ending September 2015, there were 3,646 enforced removals of people who had previously sought asylum. The number of enforced asylum removals is influenced by a number of factors including the overall number of applications for asylum and changes in the nationality mix of those applying for asylum (i.e. an increase in those nationalities applying for asylum that are more likely to be granted will lead to fewer asylum removals).</p><p>The Home Office publishes quarterly and annual statistics on the number of persons removed or departed voluntarily from the UK within Immigration Statistics. The data on removals and voluntary departures by type are available in the latest release, Immigration Statistics: July to September 2015, table rv.01q from GOV.UK on the statistics web pages at: https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/home-office/series/immigration-statistics-quarterly-release.</p> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 21/01/2016 17:04:03 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire attachment 1 file name Table 21643.xlsx title Enforced removals

The Department for Education works closely with expert organisations such as the Red Cross and St John Ambulance who provide learning materials to schools, including life-saving training kits produced by the British Heart Foundation.
