The information regarding lay members is held on a local live database known as \u201cEthos\u201d, which holds no historic data. It is therefore not possible to provide data from 2012 to 2017.<\/p>

There are currently 110 lay members for the South East Region, of which 42 are assigned to the eastern part of the Region (which comprises Norwich, Cambridge and Bury St Edmunds Employment Tribunals). Whilst lay members do have an assigned home base Employment Tribunal, they can be deployed elsewhere across the South East Region subject to their agreement.<\/p>

\u200bThe UK continues to take the lead in lobbying across the international community, urging all parties to the conflict to take action to ensure rapid, safe and unhindered humanitarian access. This call was repeated by the UN Security Council Presidential Statement proposed and coordinated by the UK in June 2017.<\/p>

The British Government has been very closely engaged on the humanitarian crisis in Yemen. The Foreign Secretary and I have spoken to the Saudi Foreign Minister about the situation several times in recent months. The Foreign Secretary also discussed this with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman on several occasions \u2013 most recently on 19 December. The Prime Minister, International Development Secretary and Chancellor all raised the importance of addressing the humanitarian crisis during recent visits to Saudi Arabia. We welcome the announcement on 20 December 2017, by the Saudi-led Coalition, that Hodeidah port will be kept open for humanitarian and food supplies, and that commercial shipping including fuel and food will be permitted to enter.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1201", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Alistair Burt"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North East Bedfordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Alistair Burt"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-01-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-01-23T17:58:29.82Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-01-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Yemen: Humanitarian Aid"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to help aid to reach people in Yemen.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4131", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jim Shannon"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Strangford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jim Shannon"} ], "uin" : "122504"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/822831", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/822831/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Statistics for waste sent for recycling and recycling rejects have been published for the 12 months to end March 2017:-<\/p>

https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/env18-local-authority-collected-waste-annual-results-tables<\/a>. Table 3b of the dataset \u201cLocal authority waste generation from April 2000 to March 2017 England and regions and Local authority data April 2016 to March 2017\u201d.<\/p>

<\/p>

In this period, 11.3 million tonnes of all waste collected by local authorities in England was sent for recycling. This amounts to 42.9% of total local authority collected waste. This includes waste recycled from residual waste streams, but excludes waste that was rejected and subsequently sent for incineration or landfill.<\/p>

<\/p>

The amount of local authority waste not sent for recycling that was originally collected for this purpose, is estimated to have been around 470 thousand tonnes in 2016/17 in England. This amounts to 1.8% of total local authority collected waste.<\/p>

The Housing Health and Safety Rating System was introduced by the Housing Act 2004. It is a risk based assessment tool which is used by local authorities to assess the risk of a hazard in residential housing to the health and safety of occupants or visitors. The system is kept under regular review, including whether the guidance needs to be updated.<\/p>

The Government has commissioned Dame Judith Hackitt to take forward an independent review of building and fire safety regulations and their effectiveness. A decision on whether the guidance on the Housing Health and Safety Rating System needs to be updated will be taken following the completion of that review, which is expected to be in Spring 2018.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4007", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dominic Raab"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Esher and Walton"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Dominic Raab"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-02-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-02-01T15:27:25.067Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "7"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Housing, Communities and Local Government"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-01-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Domestic Safety"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he has plans to review or update the Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS).", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/197", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jim Fitzpatrick"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Poplar and Limehouse"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jim Fitzpatrick"} ], "uin" : "122552"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/822874", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/822874/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

We are in the first full year of rolling out 30 hours for working parents of three- and four-year olds. Our immediate focus is on effective delivery for the spring and summer terms, and on evaluating the policy during its first year. We are not currently planning to make any significant changes to the policy.<\/p>

The government currently offers disadvantaged two-year-olds 15 hours a week of free early learning to help ensure they get the best start in life. This is in response to evidence which tells us that children from disadvantaged backgrounds, can be up to 19 months behind their better off peers in their learning by the time they start school[1]<\/a>. High-quality early learning from the age of two can help to narrow that gap, helping those children to achieve better GCSE results and ultimately earn higher wages[2]<\/a>.<\/p>

The Government recognises that organophosphates are potentially dangerous substances, and that their use needs to be carefully controlled in order to minimise the risks to people who work with them. Government policy is, and always has been, based on the best independent scientific advice. It is Government practice to regularly review all controls in line with the latest scientific advice, and to carry out research to provide more information when required.<\/p>

<\/p>

The 1999 report from the Government\u2019s independent advisory Committee on Toxicity (COT), entitled \u2018Organophosphates\u2019, concluded by making recommendations for further scientific research in the form of five questions. Subsequently, the Government committed £4.1 million funding to answer these and other research questions, exploring whether the use of sheep dips was the cause of the chronic ill health reported by some sheep farmers. The outcome of this research was provided to the COT for its work in preparation for the March 2014 statement.<\/p>

In January 2017, Government officials met with representatives from Guy\u2019s and St Thomas\u2019s Hospitals\u2019 Toxicology Department to discuss how patients who participated in various studies conducted there in the early 1990s could access their test results.<\/p>

<\/p>

During this meeting the extent of data relating to these studies that is still held was clarified, and several options for patients to gain access to their medical records were discussed. In concluding the meeting, officials agreed to produce very clear and concise instructions for how this could be done at minimal cost and share them with the group of patients concerned.<\/p>

<\/p>

The above action was completed a few weeks later at the beginning of February 2017. Since that time there have been no further meetings with the hospital, but officials have been in occasional communication with staff in the Toxicology Department in response to feedback from some patients.<\/p>

Catering services provide a wide choice of dishes to cater for vegans and vegetarians throughout the estate. Menus are changed on a regular basis to provide variety and to reflect seasonality. There has also been an increase in the number of choices for vegans and vegetarians across our venues in recent years.<\/p>

We gather customer suggestions and feedback through regular surveys and through our customer feedback email address. This assists us with our menu planning and to improve our offers and dishes on our menus where possible.<\/p>
