In their advice of 3 September, the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) suggested that the Government may wish to seek further views on the wider societal and educational impacts of universal vaccination of 12 to 15 year olds from the United Kingdom Chief Medical Officers (CMOs), with representation from the JCVI in these subsequent discussions. Consequently, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, and the UK health ministers wrote to the CMOs to ask that they consider the vaccination of 12 to 15 year olds from a broader perspective, as suggested by the JCVI.<\/p>
The UK CMOs have recommended the extension of the offer of a first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to all children and young people aged 12 to 15 years old on public health grounds. The Government has accepted this advice. <\/strong><\/p>"}

Information on vaccine wastage within the NHS England and NHS Improvement supply chain is not held centrally. NHS England and NHS Improvement\u2019s review of site deliveries, vaccination events, and site stocktakes would suggest that the number of vaccines deemed unusable at that point are within the bounds of planned expected waste.<\/p> Robust mitigations have been put in place throughout the vaccination programme to reduce wastage. Stock levels have been closely monitored at a regional, system and site level with deliveries adjusted accordingly. This includes keeping stock back in the supply chain and encouraging sites to reallocate stock at a local level, rather than draw from central stores. Vaccine deliveries have been carefully managed in line with site capacity, population density and available supply, to ensure that any vaccine being delivered would be used within as short a timeframe as possible.<\/p> Furthermore, following recent discussions with Pfizer and the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, on 17 January 2022 NHS England and NHS Improvement wrote to healthcare providers setting out that certain unpunctured and undamaged Pfizer COVID-19 vaccines have had their post thaw shelf-life extended from 31 days to 45 days. This proactive step will help to further mitigate the risk of vaccine wastage following the rapid scaling-up of the booster programme over Christmas.

Given this uncertainty, we are continuing to monitor the uptake rate and the potential impact of the regulations on the ability of care homes to continue delivering the best quality care.<\/p> <\/p> The Government published operational guidance on 4 August 2021 to support providers to implement the policy. The Guidance provides information on good employment practice for care homes, including on the importance of following a fair procedure before dismissing.<\/p> <\/p> We are working with Skills for Care to ensure that resources such as guidance and best practice are available to support providers and local authorities with capacity and workforce planning, recruitment and well-being.<\/p> <\/p> To support providers with the implementation of the policy, the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) have published high-level advice on vaccination as a condition of deployment. ACAS are developing more detailed guidance to further support and share good practice across the sector.<\/p> <\/p> The full impact assessment on making COVID-19 vaccination a condition of deployment in care homes will be published as soon as possible.<\/p> The Department has worked closely with stakeholders throughout the development of this policy and will continue to do so throughout its implementation.<\/p>"}
