The Department and other bodies look at these issues regularly. Data and progress of NHS England\u2019s Veterans Mental Health Transition Intervention and Liaison Service and Complex Treatment Service is presented to the Ministry of Defence/UK Departments of Health Partnership Board, Joint Commissioning Group and the Cabinet Office led Covenant Reference Group. Both services are also continually assessed by NHS England.<\/p>
<\/p>
In England, as well as these veteran specific services, veterans are able to access mainstream mental health services. The Improving Access to Psychological Therapies dataset reports annually and data indicates that over 20,000 veterans are utilising this avenue with very positive outcomes, often better than the general population.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4065", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Thurrock"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jackie Doyle-Price"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-02-28", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-02-28T17:17:58.92Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-02-25", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Mental Health Services: Veterans"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent assessment his Department has made of the adequacy of mental health care provision for armed forces veterans.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/308", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Jim Cunningham"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Coventry South"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Jim Cunningham"} ], "uin" : "225377"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077211", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for International Development"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1077211/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The humanitarian crisis in Yemen remains the largest in the world with nearly 80% of the population, over 24 million people, in need of humanitarian assistance. The UK has shown ongoing leadership in responding to the crisis, and by the end of the 2018/2019 financial year will have contributed £570 million in support to Yemen since the conflict began in 2015.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
On 24 February 2019, the Prime Minister announced that the UK will provide an additional £200 million for the Yemen response in the next financial year (2019/2020). This support will provide vital food assistance across Yemen to those most at risk of dying from starvation and disease, meeting the immediate food needs of over 3.8 million Yemenis for a month, treating 20,000 children for malnutrition and providing 2 million people with improved water supply and basic sanitation.<\/p>

With the changing demands of employees, it is more important than ever that teaching is compatible with having children and family life. Whilst the number of teachers working part time in teaching is increasing, there is still more to do to improve the flexible working offer in schools.<\/p>
<\/p>
This is why, in January this year, the Deaprtment published the Teacher Recruitment and Retention Strategy which sets out the steps we are taking to promote flexible working opportunities in schools. This includes developing a new high-profile \u201cfind your jobshare\u201d website that will support teachers who are looking for jobshare partners; and launching a competition for EdTech providers to create innovative solutions to promote and facilitate part-time and flexible working patterns, including timetabling tools. The Department will complement this with wider best practice resources and further research to support implementation of flexible working.<\/p>
