The regulatory bodies are independent and it is therefore for them to set their fees appropriately. All professional regulators, are aware of the Governments position, as set out in the 2011 Command Paper, `Enabling Excellence\u2019, that we would not expect registration fees to increase, unless there is a clear and strong case that any increase is essential to ensure the exercise of statutory duties.<\/p>

<\/p>

There are eight Healthcare Professions Regulatory Bodies (excluding the Pharmaceutical Society in Northern Ireland where responsibility is devolved to the Northern Ireland Assembly). The Department does not hold information on the fees of the regulatory bodies. However, we have obtained data from each of the regulatory bodies on the Annual Retention Fee for the last five years which shows:<\/p>

in these years as the costs associated with this category are included in the
overall Contingent Labour figures.

Spend on contingent and consultancy labour has decreased significantly overall

The Department engages Temporary Staff at AA, AO, EO, HEO and SEO equivalent
Grades, the vast majority at the AA to EO grades. Contractors are engaged in
grade equivalents EO to SCS PB1 with the vast majority at SEO and G6/7.

The Department buys consultancy as a service and therefore does not engage
consultants individually.

To provide details of contract durations and equivalent grades would require
analysis of individual contracts and disparate datasets, the time taken to
undertake this task would incur disproportionate cost.<\/p>

We take the issue of coercion seriously and staff working in abortion clinics are experienced and highly skilled in discussing sensitive issues with women and identifying whether there is any coercion or other risks to the woman.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Women who present for an abortion will always have the opportunity to speak to a health professional on their own at some point during the consultation. Pathways should be in place to refer women to specialised services if coercion is identified.<\/p>

The Government recognises the environmental and cultural importance of this rare river habitat. We will study the WWF\u2019s report and consider carefully any recommendations it contains.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Chalk rivers are well represented in both the national and European designated site network, which aims to protect sites of high conservation value. Action is underway on the majority of these sites to address pressures such as physical modification, effluent, diffuse pollution and abstraction.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

A strategic programme of physical habitat restoration is underway on these rivers (including the 11 chalk river Sites of Special Scientific Interest that need restoration). Led jointly by Natural England and the Environment Agency, it involves a range of statutory and voluntary sector partners. Some 70 kilometres of chalk stream have been improved since 2011.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Defra has provided funding to support these activities. A new catchment based approach to support river basin management planning is strengthening local engagement and helping the Environment Agency to better understand and respond to pressures on the water environment.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Water companies are investing £3.4 billion between 2010 and 2015 to support the achievement of Water Framework Directive environmental objectives. This has contributed to substantial reductions in phosphate pollution, to which chalk streams are particularly sensitive, and additional investment is proposed to secure further improvements. Water companies are also engaged in research to overcome technical limitations on phosphorus reduction.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Changes have been made to 44 abstraction licences affecting chalk streams. The Water Act 2014 will enable the Environment Agency to make further progress in preventing unsustainable abstraction. The Government is also putting in place a balanced package of measures to further tackle agricultural pollution. <\/ins><\/p>

The benefits of these actions are likely to take some time to be reflected in reported water body status because the environment can take a considerable time to recover once pressures have been reduced.<\/ins><\/p>
