Screening for prostate cancer is currently not recommended by the UK National Screening Committees (UK NSC). This is because of the inaccuracy of the current best test, the Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA). A PSA-based screening programme could harm men, as some of them would be diagnosed with a cancer that would not have caused them problems during their life. This would lead to additional tests and treatments which can also have harmful side effects.<\/p>

The UK NSC is currently carrying out an evidence review for prostate cancer screening, which includes different potential ways of screening the whole population from 40 years of age onwards, and targeted screening programme aimed at groups of men identified as being at higher than average risk, such as those with a family history, carriers of the BRCA2 gene, or based on ethnicity.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1506", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrew Gwynne"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Gorton and Denton"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Andrew Gwynne"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-09-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-09-12T15:18:31.43Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-09-09", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Prostate Cancer: Screening"} , "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 assessment he has made of the potential benefits of introducing national screening for prostate cancer.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/5168", "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newcastle-under-Lyme"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Adam Jogee"} ], "uin" : "4826"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1728299", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1728299/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Palliative care services are included in the list of services an integrated care board (ICB), including the Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent ICB, which covers Newcastle-under-Lyme, must commission. This promotes a more consistent national approach and supports commissioners in prioritising palliative and end of life care.\u202fTo support the ICBs in this duty, NHS England has published statutory guidance\u202fand\u202fservice specifications.<\/p>

Whilst the majority of palliative and end of life care is provided by National Health Service staff and services, we recognise the vital part that voluntary sector organisations, including hospices, also play in providing support to people, and their loved ones, at the end of life.<\/p>

Most hospices are charitable, independent organisations which receive some statutory funding for providing NHS services. The amount of funding charitable hospices receive varies by ICB area, and will, in part, be dependent on the breadth and range of palliative and end of life care provision within their ICB footprint.<\/p>

We understand that, financially, times are difficult for many voluntary and charitable organisations, including hospices, due to the increased cost of living. We want a society where these costs are manageable for both voluntary organisations, like hospices, and the people whom they serve.<\/p>

We, alongside NHS England, will continue to proactively engage with our stakeholders, including the voluntary sector and independent hospices, on an ongoing basis, in order to understand the issues they face.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4359", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Stephen Kinnock"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Aberafan Maesteg"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Stephen Kinnock"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-09-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-09-10T11:01:52.58Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-09-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Hospices: Newcastle-under-Lyme"} , "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 assessment he has made of the adequacy of the (a) provision and (b) funding of hospice care in Newcastle-under-Lyme constituency.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/5168", "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newcastle-under-Lyme"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Adam Jogee"} ], "uin" : "3883"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1726049", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1726049/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The UK is an active participant of the potential hazard issues informal working group at the United Nations Globally Harmonized System of classification and labelling of chemicals (UN GHS) and supported a mandate issued to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to conduct a state of the science review for endocrine disruptors, persistence and mobility.

NHS England\u2019s RightCare toolkit and Getting It Right First Time programme aim to improve care for people with Parkinson\u2019s disease by reducing variation and delivering care more equitably across the country.<\/p>

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence\u2019s (NICE) guidance, Parkinson\u2019s disease: Diagnosis and management in primary and secondary care, updated in 2017, sets out best practice for clinicians in the identification and treatment of Parkinson\u2019s, in line with the latest available evidence. The guidance states that if Parkinson's is suspected, people should be referred quickly and untreated to a specialist with expertise in the differential diagnosis of this condition.<\/p>

There are 27 specialised neurological treatment centres across the National Health Service in England, with the nearest to Newcastle-under-Lyme being in the University Hospitals of North Midlands, which provide access to neurological multidisciplinary teams to ensure that patients with Parkinson\u2019s can receive specialised treatment and support, according to their needs.<\/p>

We expect integrated care boards (ICBs) and NHS trusts to have due regard to relevant NICE guidelines. It is the responsibility of the ICBs, including the Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent ICB which covers Newcastle-under-Lyme, to make available appropriate provision to meet the health and care needs of their local population, in line with these NICE guidelines, including diagnosis and treatment.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1506", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrew Gwynne"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Gorton and Denton"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Andrew Gwynne"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-09-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-09-05T09:55:07.197Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-08-30", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Parkinson's Disease: Newcastle-under-Lyme"} , "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 steps he has taken to help ensure that people with Parkinson\u2019s in Newcastle-under-Lyme constituency receive (a) an early diagnosis and (b) swift treatment.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/5168", "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newcastle-under-Lyme"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Adam Jogee"} ], "uin" : "3452"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1726056", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business and Trade"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1726056/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI)\u2019s, part of HM Treasury, announced in its 2022-2023 Annual Review that between February 2022 and October 2023, £22.7 billion in frozen funds had been reported in relation to the Russia sanctions regime.

Frozen assets are not transferred to HM Treasury and there is no change of ownership. Interest accrued on frozen assets remains subject to the asset freeze, and are to be frozen immediately by the person in possession or control of them.
