answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/04/2017 answer text <p>Higher education institutions are autonomous bodies, independent from the Government. They have legal responsibilities under the Equality Act 2010 to support students, including those with mental health conditions. It is for institutions to determine what welfare and counselling services they need to provide to their students to offer that support and each institution is best placed to identify the needs of their particular student body and develop the services needed to support it.</p><p> </p><p>There is already a great deal of guidance and support available to institutions, and many offer advice and counselling services and adopt local systems to help identify students who may be finding it hard to cope, using information such as course attendance and referral systems from personal tutors or lecturers.</p><p> </p><p>In our latest guidance to the Director for Access (DfA) (February 2016) we asked for more to be to done through access agreements, to support students with mental health issues. It is however a matter for each institution to agree with the DfA the targets which are important for that institution and indeed the support services they provide.</p><p> </p><p>The Department is engaging with Universities UK on its ‘Mental Health in Higher Education’ sector led programme on the provision of mental health and wellbeing services. <a href="http://www.universitiesuk.ac.uk/policy-and-analysis/Pages/Student-and-staff-health-and-wellbeing.aspx" target="_blank">www.universities.ac.uk</a></p><p> </p><p>On 9 January 2017, the Prime Minister announced a package of measures to transform mental health support in our schools, workplaces and communities. This included a commitment for a Green Paper on children and young people’s mental health to set out plans to transform services, including within universities. <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/the-shared-society-prime-ministers-speech-at-the-charity-commission-annual-meeting" target="_blank">www.gov.uk</a></p> answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Joseph Johnson question first answered 27/04/2017 08:18:34 answering member 4039 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Marylebone

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/04/2017 answer text <p>The UK provided £112 million in aid to Yemen in 2016/17, which supported over 462,000 people with food or food vouchers, and over 889,000 women and children with nutrition interventions. Given the scale of the current crisis in Yemen, yesterday we further increased UK aid for 2017/18 to £139 million, to provide lifesaving aid to hundreds of thousands of desperate people.
