The Women\u2019s Health Strategy sets out our ambitions for all healthcare professionals to be well informed about women\u2019s health and supported to provide women with the best care possible. We are investing £25 million in women\u2019s health hubs to improve women\u2019s access to essential services for menstrual problems and more.<\/p>

Women\u2019s health is a core competency for general practitioners (GPs) and is included in the Royal College of General Practitioners\u2019 (RCGP) curriculum for trainee GPs. The RCGP has developed a \u2018Women\u2019s Health Library\u2019, drawing together educational resources and guidelines on women\u2019s health, which is regularly updated so primary healthcare professionals have the most up-to-date information for their patients.<\/p>

Additionally, the General Medical Council will introduce the Medical Licensing Assessment from the academic year 2024/2025, including several women\u2019s health-related topics such as menstrual problems, encouraging a better understanding of menstrual health problems for doctors starting their careers.<\/p>

Prior to 1 June 2014, Probation services in England and Wales were delivered through 35 Probation Trusts.

Information on sickness absence, on a monthly basis is contained in the table below.<\/p>

Sickness absence is highly seasonal and therefore comparisons from month to month within a year are not helpful. Comparisons from the same month in successive years are the only reliable indicator of changes in absence levels.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

All 35 Probation Trusts ceased to provide probation services from 1 June 2014 as a result of the change to the structure of probation. On that date both the National Probation Service and the Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) were formed. Sickness absence information was published for the new organisations for the first time on 17 November 2014, in the management information release, \u201cManagement Information for Probation, 1 June \u2013 30 September England & Wales\u201d. This publication covered sickness absence data for the period from June to September 2014. The information published at that time is contained in the table below.<\/p>

Note: Sickness absence information is subject to final cleaning at the end of the financial year so the information presented in the Management Information Addendum to the NOMS Annual Report and Accounts will differ from the information as it was published in November 2014.<\/p>

<\/p>

The information in the table above relates to the four months immediately following the transition to the new probation structure. We take the health and wellbeing of probation staff extremely seriously and we recognise that the transition was a challenging time for them. Support arrangements were in place from the outset and staff continue to be supported.<\/p>

<\/p>

Sickness absence for the whole of 2014/15 will be published on 30 July 2015 in the Management Information Addendum to the NOMS Annual Report and Accounts. This will address the as yet unpublished final period of probation trusts for April and May 2014, and for the NPS from October 2014 to March 2015.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1453", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrew Selous"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South West Bedfordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Andrew Selous"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2015-06-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2015-06-23T17:00:20.36Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "54"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2015-06-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "National Probation Service for England and Wales: Sick Leave"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many days' absence due to sickness of staff working for the National Probation Service there were in each month since May 2010.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/400", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for John Healey"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wentworth and Dearne"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "John Healey"} ], "uin" : "2536"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 5, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
