answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2022 answer text <p>Following a review in December 2021, FCDO's assessment is that the Palestinian Authority (PA) demonstrates a partially credible commitment to the Partnership Principles. There is relatively strong progress on improving public financial management and a continued commitment to delivering effective services and reducing poverty, despite the challenges of occupation. However, cases of abuses of human rights and restrictions on freedom of expression continue and there is potential for greater action to strengthen human rights protection and increase domestic accountability in areas within the PA's control. The UK will continue to monitor these areas closely and raise with the highest levels of the PA.</p> answering member constituency Aldershot answering member printed Leo Docherty question first answered 25/10/2022 16:49:46 answering member 4600 label Biography information for Leo Docherty

This aims to increase the availability of appointment types, such as face-to-face, in England, including in Birmingham, Selly Oak.</p><p> </p><p>NHS England’s guidance states that GP practices must provide face to face appointments and remote consultations and should respect preferences for face-to-face care unless there are good clinical reasons to the contrary.  While remote consultations can provide additional choice, flexibility and convenience for patients, this is not suitable for all patients or in all circumstances.</p><p> </p><p>The information requested on general practice appointments is not collected in the format requested. In the 12 months to August 2022, there were 8.06 million general practice appointments in the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care System area, excluding COVID-19 vaccinations.
