answer text <p>In November 2016 the Government Office for Science published a report “Artificial intelligence: opportunities and implications for the future of decision making” which gives an overview of ways in which AI could change the nature of some areas of work. We have recently asked Jérôme Pesenti and Professor Dame Wendy Hall to undertake a review on artificial intelligence, to contribute to the development of the Government’s Industrial Strategy. As set out in the Industrial Strategy​ green paper, published January 2017 and the Digital Strategy, published March 2017, Government recognises that the rapid pace of technological change means digital techniques and technologies will change quickly so we are looking at ways to support people throughout their working lives.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Secretary of State has a duty to make an academy order for all local authority maintained schools that are judged by Ofsted to be inadequate. If an academy is judged to be inadequate, the Secretary of State has the power to transfer it to a stronger academy trust. In both cases, these academies will generally be inspected as new schools in their third year of operation.</p><p> </p><p>We believe it is right in these cases to allow the new academy trust the opportunity to turnaround what was a previously failing school before it is inspected by Ofsted.</p><p>However, Ofsted will inspect schools at any time where information that they hold or receive causes sufficient concern.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The UK welcomes France’s efforts to promote peace. But we were always clear that a conference so close to the change of US administration, and without the attendance of the two main parties, was not the best way to make progress.

answer text <p>The Child Maintenance Service (CMS) does not take into account a person’s “lifestyle” in calculating a maintenance liability.</p><p> </p><p>The CMS has access to income information held by HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC), allowing us to capture a much wider range of income types received by Paying Parents. The definition of income within the 2012 scheme includes almost all additional sources of gross income captured by self-assessment. We refer to this as “unearned income” and it includes incomes from property, savings and investments (including dividends) and other miscellaneous incomes.</p><p> </p><p>This provides a more effective route to taking these kinds of income into account than the “lifestyle” ground which existed for the previous schemes of maintenance.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The new congenital heart disease (CHD) standards were approved by the NHS England Board in July 2015. The paper which NHS England’s CHD review team submitted to the Board at that time set out that:</p><p> </p><p>“We found no published evidence on the effects of proximity of other services so the proposed standards are based on expert opinion. Our clinical advisers strongly advocated co-location with other paediatric services, though they recognised that not everyone agrees. They considered that while responsiveness was one important factor, it was not the only thing that mattered. Delivering these services effectively requires the input of the wider paediatric multidisciplinary team, and the interaction between these teams on a daily basis, when co-located, is considered to be of significant benefit to patients.”</p><p> </p><p>The full paper can be found on NHS England’s website at:</p><p><a href="https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Item-4-CHD-Report.pdf" target="_blank">https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/Item-4-CHD-Report.pdf</a></p>
