	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/10/2019 answer text <p>Setting executive pay is a matter for a charity’s trustees to determine, acting in the best interests of their charity. In doing so the charity trustees need to consider a number of factors, including securing value for money for the charity, and the impact of their decisions on public trust. The Charity Commission for England and Wales requires charities to include information on the number of staff receiving remuneration in excess of £60,000, in their Annual Return. This information will be published in income bands on the charity register. The Charity Commission also requires charities to include information on the remuneration of their highest paid staff member. It will use this data to make a study of pay in charities and will publish its findings, once that work is complete.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Loughborough answering member printed Nicky Morgan grouped question UIN 745 question first answered 22/10/2019 18:16:52 answering member 4027 label Biography information for Baroness Morgan of Cotes

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/10/2019 answer text <p>The Department does not issue guidance on legal action in best interests cases. Decisions around withdrawal of treatment in such difficult circumstances are never easy. It is important that families and medical experts communicate and, where possible, reach agreement on the best interest of the child. Medical ethics committees and mediation services are often involved in such cases, but each case will be different and must be considered on its own unique circumstances by those who are involved – the National Health Services trust, clinicians and parents/patients. Health care professionals have a duty to act in the best interests of their patients and when doctors and families do not agree about the best interests of a child the Courts can been asked, by either party, to make an independent judgement, as in the case of Tafida Raqeeb.</p><p>The Department does not collect information on the cost of best interest cases.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage grouped question UIN 1773 question first answered 24/10/2019 10:56:08 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
