Skills for Care publishes data on the adult social care workforce. They estimate that 8% of roles in the adult social care sector remained vacant in 2017/18, this gives an average of approximately 110,000 vacancies at any one time. Projections show the number of adult social care jobs required will increase by 40% (650,000 jobs) to around 2.55 million jobs by 2035.<\/p>

The Government is aware that our challenge, working alongside our partners in the adult social care sector, is to ensure the workforce has the right number of people to meet increasing demands, with the right skills, knowledge and values to deliver quality, compassionate care. We are looking to address the broader challenges around staff recruitment and retention in the social care market, and consulted on this issue earlier on the year. The evidence provided in the consultation responses will inform our Green Paper on the future of adult social care, with a strategy for its workforce, later this year.<\/p>

In addition, the Department has announced the launch of a new adult social care recruitment campaign this autumn. This will raise the profile of the sector and help build awareness of the rich variety of roles careers on offer and attract the right people, with the right values, to deliver the very best care.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4545", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord O'Shaughnessy"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-10-17", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-10-17T15:07:06.35Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-10-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Care Workers"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of the number of adult social care workers required in England in the next ten years; what is the current shortfall in the number of adult social care workers in England; and what action they are taking to address that shortfall.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/259", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for The Marquess of Lothian"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "The Marquess of Lothian"} ], "uin" : "HL10555"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/985013", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/985013/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Conversion therapy is wrong and we are not willing to let it continue.<\/p>

As part of the LGBT Action Plan, we have committed to bring forward proposals to end the practice of conversion therapy in the UK.

We are aware that there was a short-term supply issue which may have affected the availability in May 2018. This was because one of the main suppliers experienced delays in delivery, resulting in a short term out of stock period. Although supplies continued to remain available from other suppliers, we are aware that some may have struggled to support the increase in demand at short notice. The delivery issues were resolved quickly and the overall supply of buprenorphine tablets improved shortly afterwards.<\/p>

Since this period, the Department has remained in regular contact with all United Kingdom licensed suppliers of buprenorphine and has been working closely with them to monitor their supply position. Based on these conversations, we have been assured that the available supplies are sufficient to meet the usual UK requirements for this drug. The Department continues to monitor this very closely to ensure that there is consistent and adequate supply of this medication across the country.<\/p>

The Department is aware that since this short-term supply issue, the market price has increased. This increased purchase price is reflected in the reimbursement price paid to pharmacies, to ensure that supplies remain available to patients. The market for buprenorphine has generally been competitive and we expect the supply situation to improve over the coming weeks which is likely to result in an increasingly competitive market.<\/p>

As such it is not appropriate for Government to intervene in these matters and therefore no assessment has been made, or guidance provided, on image re-use. We are currently in the process of revising performance indicators for all fifteen of the DCMS sponsored museums. We are reviewing a broad range of museum activity and government policy in order to inform our decision around which performance indicators will be selected for inclusion in the museum management agreements from 2020. We are not in a position, at this stage, to comment on specific performance indicators as the project is ongoing.
