No assessment has been made of the practice of National Health Service trusts using non-disclosure agreements in cases of bullying and harassment affecting staff members.<\/p>
Any clause in a settlement agreement or contract of employment which purports to prevent a member of staff from a making a protected disclosure would have no legal effect. Such clauses are often referred to as \u2018gagging\u2019 clauses and have no place in the NHS. No organisation can to put such a provision in a settlement agreement or employment contract.<\/p>
Since 2013, all agreements where confidentiality clauses are used, also require the inclusion of a clause which makes it crystal clear to the parties concerned, that regardless of what other clauses are used in the agreement, an individual will always be able to make a protected disclosure in the public interest and/or raise concerns about patient safety and care in accordance with their professional and ethical obligations.<\/p>
The NHS Long Term Plan commits £2 million per year to tackling violence against staff and bullying in the NHS. The Plan states that \u201cTo make the NHS a consistently great place to work, we will seek to shape a modern employment culture for the NHS \u2013 promoting flexibility, wellbeing and career development, and redoubling our efforts to address discrimination, violence and bullying and harassment\u201d.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4019", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-11T16:54:03.893Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-02-25", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "NHS: Bullying"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the practice of NHS trusts of using non-disclosure agreements in cases of bullying and harassment affecting staff members.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4181", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Beecham"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Beecham"} ], "uin" : "HL13967"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077086", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077086/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust has been awarded a research grant by the National Institute for Health Research to fund a LOGIC study (Longitudinal Outcomes of Gender Identity in Children) that will follow up children and young people aged 13 years and under referred to the Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS). This will look at outcomes with regard to young people\u2019s physical health, quality of life and psychological wellbeing. The United Kingdom GIDS is the largest such service in the world and this combined with the increase in referrals in recent years means that it is uniquely positioned to undertake research of this kind.<\/p>
The research will importantly investigate outcomes over time, whether children and young people and their families remain in contact with NHS services or not. This thereby investigates outcomes for the entire cohort, encompassing those in receipt of physical (hormone/endocrine) treatments and those not receiving such interventions. The findings generated from this research will help address important gaps in the evidence, enabling services to provide better and more individualized care, benefiting patients and their families.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4019", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-11T15:18:45.34Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-02-25", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Gender Dysphoria: Children"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what consideration they have given to ensuring all children under the age of 18 who have been referred to the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust\u2019s Gender Identity Development Service in respect of possible gender dysphoria or reassignment participate in an independent long-term study to improve the understanding of such conditions, possible courses of treatment and support for such children.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1879", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Lucas"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Lucas"} ], "uin" : "HL14006"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077121", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077121/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

\u2018Tackling antimicrobial resistance (2019-24): The UK\u2019s five-year national action plan\u2019, recognises that immunisation is one of the most effective public health interventions to prevent infection in humans and animals.<\/p>
<\/p>
Vaccination programmes have been successful and cost-effective in helping avert millions of cases of childhood illness, with large reductions in cases of serious infections. By reducing the burden of infection, vaccine programmes play an important role in reducing levels of antibiotic prescribing and therefore the selective pressure for the emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance.<\/p>
<\/p>
The childhood pneumococcal vaccine programme has led to declines in some antibiotic resistant clones of pneumococcus that are covered by the PCV13 vaccine. Also, the influenza vaccination programme helps to reduce the use of and requirement for antibiotics by reducing cases of respiratory illness and of secondary bacterial pneumonia.<\/p>
<\/p>

Health Education England (HEE) published its first ever Cancer Workforce Plan in December 2017 which commits to the expansion of capacity and skills including an ambition to increase improved working practices, attracting qualified people back to the National Health Service through domestic and international recruitment. This will include 668 more, full time equivalent, clinical radiologists and investing in 300 reporting radiographers by 2021 to support an increase in the capacity for earlier diagnosis.<\/p>
Following publication of the NHS Long Term Plan in January 2019, my Rt. hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care has commissioned Baroness Dido Harding, working closely with Sir David Behan, to lead a number of programmes to engage with key NHS interests to develop a detailed workforce implementation plan.

Leaving the European Union with a deal remains the Government\u2019s top priority - this has not changed. However, as a responsible Government, we must plan for every possible outcome including \u2018no deal\u2019. The Department has published guidance to industry and the health and care system to allow them to make informed plans and preparations. This is available on GOV.UK.<\/p>
We are reliant on transport and freight being re-routed but are confident that, if everyone \u2013 including suppliers, freight companies, the health and care system and international partners - does what they should do, the supply of medicines and other medical products, including medical radioisotopes, will be uninterrupted.<\/p>
The Department has put in place a multi-layered approach to minimise any supply disruption:<\/p>
- securing, via the Department for Transport, additional roll on roll off freight capacity (away from the short straits crossings to Dover and Folkestone) for goods to continue to come into the United Kingdom from 29 March;<\/p>
- asking industry to build up stockpiles in the UK before 29 March;<\/p>
- buying extra warehouse space for the additional stock to be held in;<\/p>
- supporting companies in booking space on aeroplanes for products which require an immediate shipment due to short shelf-life, including medical radioisotopes, or specific storage conditions;<\/p>
- making changes to, or clarifications of, certain regulatory requirements so that companies can continue to sell their products in the UK even if we have \u2018no deal\u2019; and<\/p>
- strengthening the processes and resources used to deal with shortages in the event that they do occur.<\/p>
There is cross-Government agreement that all medicines and medical products will be prioritised on these alternative routes to ensure that the flow of all these products may continue unimpeded. For any products that require air freight, such as medical radioisotopes, we are continuing to work with suppliers to ensure this continues as normal.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1585", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Stephen Hammond"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wimbledon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Stephen Hammond"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-05T14:34:21.57Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-02-25", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Radioisotopes"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what proportion of radioisotope suppliers have confirmed that freight provisions are in place to avoid delays at ports preventing people accessing cancer treatments as a result of the UK leaving the EU without a deal.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4368", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Neil Coyle"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bermondsey and Old Southwark"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Neil Coyle"} ], "uin" : "225530"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077148", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077148/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
