Government Departments aim to secure value for money in meeting their facilities management requirements. The evaluation of either an in-house, outsourced, or a delivery model which is a combination of insourced and outsourced components will be evaluated on price and quality including the social value impacts such as tackling regional inequality with new skills and jobs, or ensuring those in disadvantaged groups have equal chance to become part of a diverse, resilient workforce. A minimum overall weight of 10% in the overall score is ascribed to Social Value.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/5305", "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Queen's Park and Maida Vale"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Georgia Gould"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-07-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-07-23T16:03:43.003Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "53"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Cabinet Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Cabinet Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-07-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Government Departments: Facilities"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he plans to take step increase the insourcing of facilities management services in Government departments and agencies.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/5231", "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Blackburn"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Adnan Hussain"} ], "uin" : "754"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1722081", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1722081/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The NHS Long-Term Plan sets out the National Health Service\u2019s key ambitions on cancer to increase the number of cancers diagnosed at stages one and two to 75% by 2028 and to increase the number of people surviving cancer for five years by 55,000 as a result.<\/p>
NHS England is the accountable commissioner for radiotherapy which is a prescribed specialised service. Standards for service delivery are set out in the service specification, which is available at the following link:<\/p>

Based on this, the government believes it is very unlikely that an IPP prisoner would meet the test to be considered for FTR i.e. that they would not be a serious risk to the public if re-released after 14 or 28 days.<\/p> <\/p> Instead, the Government has tabled amendments to the Victims and Prisoners Bill which will enable the Secretary of State to release a recalled IPP offender following Risk Assessed Recall Review (RARR) without the need for a Parole review when he considers it is in the interests of justice to do so.<\/p>"}
