answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2021 answer text <p>Serious Case Reviews (SCRs) are locally led enquiries and as such most recommendations are for local safeguarding partnerships to implement. Those that include national recommendations are considered by those with responsibility across government. The department has also commissioned regular reviews of SCRs to analyse their content, the latest of which was published in March 2020.</p><p>Since 2018, SCRs have been replaced by Local Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews, which introduced a stronger focus on learning from serious incidents. As part of the new multi-agency safeguarding arrangements, Safeguarding Partnerships are required to report annually on how they have implemented the learning from local reviews. These are published and submitted to the National Panel.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince question first answered 21/12/2021 13:57:50 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/02/2022 answer text <p>Negative test results provide a level of assurance that an individual is not infectious when the test is taken and for a short time afterwards. The more recently a test is taken, the more assured an individual can be that any result is a valid reflection of their infectiousness.</p><p>Overall, introducing vaccine or test certification helps to reduce risks in affected settings when compared with no intervention. However, it does not eliminate the possibility of infectious people attending or transmitting the virus in these settings so individuals should continue to exercise caution.</p><p>Mandating vaccine or test certification has helped to ensure that settings that have experienced long periods of closure remain open. It was preferable to closing venues entirely or reimposing capacity caps or social distancing.</p><p>On 19 January 2022, the Government announced the end of mandatory certification requirements to access certain settings. From 27 January 2022, venues will no longer be legally required to check the NHS COVID Pass as a condition of entry.</p> answering member constituency Erewash answering member printed Maggie Throup question first answered 03/02/2022 09:29:42 answering member 4447 label Biography information for Maggie Throup previous answer version 39882 answering member constituency Erewash answering member printed Maggie Throup answering member 4447 label Biography information for Maggie Throup

In this response, the Government did not accept the recommendation to establish separate redress schemes for the three interventions discussed in the report. While the Government is sympathetic to the experiences of those patients who gave evidence to the report, our primary focus is on improving future medicines and medical devices safety. We considered the costs of redress and the existing settlement costs for claims. It is crucial that we focus funds on initiatives that directly improve future safety and we are pursuing this aim.</p> answering member constituency Lewes answering member printed Maria Caulfield question first answered 17/12/2021 12:57:44 answering member 4492 label Biography information for Maria Caulfield

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2021 answer text <p>The Ministry of Justice strongly supports the creation of the independent oversight body for enforcement agents and firms that has been proposed by the Centre for Social Justice (CSJ). Officials have met regularly with the CSJ and the working group that is establishing the body to support its development. We will undertake a review of the body within two years of its operation to see if any legislative changes are necessary to place it on a statutory footing.</p><p>The publication of the response to our call for evidence about the enforcement agent reforms, which closed in February 2019, has been delayed as a result of the department’s response to the pandemic. That allowed us to refocus our priorities, which resulted, for example, in MoJ and DLUHC introducing an extended ban on enforcing evictions to prevent people being made homeless during Covid, so protecting public health and easing the burden on the NHS and local authorities.</p><p>We remain committed to raising standards in this sector and will publish the response as soon as possible.</p> answering member constituency South Suffolk answering member printed James Cartlidge question first answered 20/12/2021 16:23:33 answering member 4519 label Biography information for James Cartlidge
