We are fully committed to supporting those with mental health conditions. The assessment of mental, cognitive, and intellectual function is an integral part of the assessment process.<\/p>

<\/p>

All healthcare professionals (HPs) undertaking assessments on behalf of the department must be registered practitioners who have undergone comprehensive training in the functional assessment of disability, and mental health conditions. HPs continue to keep this knowledge up to date through continuous professional development.<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition, mental health function champions support HPs by providing additional expertise about mental health, cognitive, developmental, and learning disabilities, and can be referred to at any time during the assessment process.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4169", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Viscount Younger of Leckie"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Viscount Younger of Leckie"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-06-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-06-14T11:01:59.243Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "29"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Work and Pensions"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Work and Pensions"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-06-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Social Security Benefits: Medical Examinations"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask His Majesty's Government what training in customer mental health they give to contractors providing assessments of benefits claimants.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/236", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Browning"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Baroness Browning"} ], "uin" : "HL8277"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1235833", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1235833/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Monetary policy, including decisions on Bank Rate, is the responsibility of the independent Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Bank of England. Therefore, the Government does not comment on the conduct of monetary policy.<\/p>

<\/p>

As noted in the minutes published on 17 September, the MPC will continue to review the appropriateness of a negative policy rate as a policy tool alongside its broader toolkit.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4689", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Agnew of Oulton"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Agnew of Oulton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-10-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-10-01T11:56:36.743Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-09-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Interest Rates"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the likelihood of negative interest rates being introduced in the current financial year.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4303", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Kennedy of Cradley"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Baroness Kennedy of Cradley"} ], "uin" : "HL8277"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/916571", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "The Senior Deputy Speaker"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/916571/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Senior Deputy Speaker has asked me, as Chairman of the Services Committee, to respond on his behalf.<\/p>

Food and catering waste from catering facilities in both Houses is segregated from other waste at the kitchens; it is recovered offsite by means of anaerobic digestion to produce methane fuel and fertiliser. No catering waste from Parliament is sent to landfill.<\/p>

The measurements of waste are not broken down by House.<\/p>

In each of the last five financial years, the following amounts (kilogrammes) of food waste from catering facilities across Parliament were disposed of:<\/p>

2013/14: 140,017kg<\/p>

2014/15: 209,667kg<\/p>

2015/16: 130,384kg<\/p>

2016/17: 228,441kg<\/p>

2017/18: 266,749kg<\/p>

<\/p>

The increase in the amount of food waste being disposed of is partly as a result of improvements in waste management; this has meant that an increasing proportion of food waste has been diverted from general waste into a dedicated food waste stream. Additionally, macerators have been removed from the Estate: food waste disposed of through macerators was not previously captured in the food waste stream. In both cases this has ensured that food waste is now sent to an anaerobic digestion facility, moving it up the waste hierarchy.<\/p>

Food waste from offices is not currently segregated and is captured in the general waste stream and sent to an energy-from-waste facility. A system to collect this separately, together with compostable items, is to be introduced in the next couple of months.<\/p>
