The Secretary of State has received a number of requests for him to call in the planning applications for the development of Rivenhall Integrated Waste Facility.

The national curriculum includes substantial content which could be used by teachers as an opportunity to inform pupils about organ, stem cell and blood donation. Pupils are taught about the function of the heart, blood vessels and blood as part of Key Stage 2 science, and about stem cells as part of the Key Stage 4 science. The national curriculum is compulsory in state maintained schools, and is often used as a benchmark by academies.<\/p>

In addition, the Government is proposing to introduce compulsory Health Education, alongside Relationships Education and Relationships and Sex Education, and is currently consulting on draft regulations and draft statutory guidance on the subjects. Under the topic of physical health and fitness, the draft guidance sets out that pupils should know the facts about wider issues such as organ and blood donation.<\/p>

HMRC collects information on taxpayers but does not collect information on all people as it does not affect the amount of tax due. Furthermore, due to changes in the methodology over the last 10 years, it would require additional time and resource to provide all the information requested.<\/p>

The Ministry of Defence (MOD) maintains an electronic patient record for serving UK Armed Forces personnel, which has a centralised data warehouse of coded information. From this and data from the MOD's in-patient care contractor, the Government publishes annual statistics on mental health in the Armed Forces. This summarises all initial assessments for a new episode of care of personnel at MOD Specialist Mental Health Services (Departments of Community Mental Health for outpatient care and all admissions to the MOD's in-patient care contractor) by financial year (FY).<\/p>

The latest bulletin was published in June 2018 and provides Armed Forces mental health statistics for the period 1 April 2007 to 31 March 2018. This can be viewed at:<\/p>

This shows that in FY 2017-18, the latest period for which figures are available, 3.1% of personnel had a mental health disorder assessed at MOD Specialist Mental Health Services. The bulletin does not include data on patients treated for mental health problems wholly within the primary care setting by their GP or medical officer. Defence Statistics is planning to carry out work in the future to estimate the number of personnel treated in this setting.<\/p>

Information on all veterans who are currently experiencing mental health problems is not held by the MOD.

Evidence shows that the disability employment gap is narrowing, although we are determined to see further improvements, so that everyone who can work is given the right support and opportunities to do so.<\/p>

Table 1 shows the gap in employment rates between working age disabled and non-disabled people, based on the estimates published by ONS on the website at the following link:<\/p>

Notes:<\/p>

  1. Estimates relate to quarter 2 (April-June) each year.<\/li>
  2. Percentages are rounded to the nearest 0.1 percentage point. Components may not sum exactly to totals due to rounding.<\/li>
  3. Estimates exclude a small number of respondents who did not report whether or not they were disabled.<\/li>
  4. Data is subject to sampling variation and is not seasonally adjusted.<\/li>
  5. Due to an apparent discontinuity, ONS has applied health warnings to estimates for periods after Q2 (April to June) 2017. We are awaiting further advice from ONS on how these more recent figures can be used in future.<\/li><\/ol>
