NHS England has responsibility for clinical commissioning group (CCG) allocations.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The funding per capita NHS England has allocated to (a) each CCG in York and North Yorkshire, (b) each region of England and (c) England in each year since the creation of CCGs (i) in cash terms, and (ii) in real terms (constant prices), is shown in the table below.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The final column is by way of context, and shows that NHS England has ensured real terms growth in overall CCG allocations, mirroring the Government\u2019s commitment to protect health spending.<\/p>

We are giving the National Health Service a total of £150 million to pilot new ideas on extending general practitioner (GP) access for millions more people, including offering more appointments from 8am to 8pm, seven days a week, as well as more email and Skype consultations. We invested £50 million in wave one in 2014/15 and will invest a further £100 million for a second wave for 2015/16.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The most recent GP patient survey found that 85.2% of patients rate their overall experience of their GP practice as good and 73.8% of patients rated their overall experience of making an appointment as good.<\/p>

Health Education England (HEE) has a key role in helping to improve the quality of care by ensuring our National Health Service workforce has the right numbers, skills, values and behaviours to meet the needs of patients. Their workforce planning process sets out the £5 billion worth of investments HEE will make in education and training programmes in England.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

HEE published their second workforce plan in December 2014. The plan sets out detail of the numbers of midwives they plan to train. For 2015/16, HEE plan to increase midwife training numbers by 1.6% to 2,605.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

HEE\u2019s national workforce plan for England is an aggregate of Local Education and Training Boards\u2019 plans with the advice and input of clinical advisors, patient representatives, the Royal Colleges and other stakeholders. These local and national discussions are the basis for planning and developing the workforce for the NHS in England to ensure that there is a suitable supply of health professionals, including midwives. HEE undertake workforce planning on an annual basis.<\/p>

NHS England is responsible for commissioning dental services. As such, the Department has made no assessment of the adequacy of the provision of NHS dental services in Clacton constituency.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

NHS England advises that it believes there are sufficient units of dental activity commissioned in the Clacton area to meet oral health needs. NHS England is not aware of any significant complaints in respect of accessing NHS dental provision in this locality.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

Nationally, more than 30 million people were seen by an NHS dentist in the 24 month period ending 31 December 2014. Almost 1.6 million more people have been seen by an NHS dentist since May 2010. The Government is committed to working with NHS England to increase access to NHS dentistry.<\/p>

National Health Service organisations are responsible for improving the health and wellbeing of their staff. Progress has been made on implementing the Boorman[1] recommendations as indicated by falling sickness absence rates[2] from 4.48% at the time of the Boorman Review to 4.15% in the year to October 2014 and the Royal College of Physicians[3] reporting last year that NHS trusts are beginning to prioritise staff health and wellbeing with progress made since their previous audit in 2011.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Our assessment of the effect of the recommendations on the provision of such services by the NHS is that there is no room for complacency and many trusts have more to do. Therefore, we continue to commission NHS Employers to support NHS organisations in improving the health and wellbeing of their staff.<\/p>

The content and standard of medical training is the responsibility of the General Medical Council (GMC), which is the competent authority for medical training in the United Kingdom. Its role is that of custodian of quality standards in medical education and practice. The GMC is an independent professional body. It has the general function of promoting high standards of medical education and co-ordinating all stages of medical education to ensure that students and newly qualified doctors are equipped with the knowledge, skills and values essential for professional practice.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Medical Schools are responsible for developing their own curricula, adhering to the standards set by the GMC in \u2018Tomorrow\u2019s Doctor\u2019<\/em>.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The GMC and medical schools therefore share the aim of ensuring that doctors are equipped to deal with the problems they will encounter in practice, including sudden unexpected death in epilepsy and epilepsy.<\/p>
