The latest monthly statistics, taken from Stat-Xplore, on the number of Universal Credit full service claimants with a payment that has been reduced due to a sanction, by Westminster parliamentary constituency, for September to November 2022, are provided in the answer I gave to you on 6 March for HL5653<\/a>.<\/p>

<\/p>

The information requested for the total and average sum of benefit income lost and parts (1), (2) and (3) is not readily available and to provide it would incur disproportionate cost.<\/p>

<\/p>

Sanctions are only ever applied when a claimant fails to meet their agreed conditionality requirements without good reason.<\/p>

The methodology used to select Education Investment Areas and opportunity areas is available at the following link: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/social-mobility-and-opportunity-areas<\/a>.<\/p>

Education Investment Areas were selected based on poor attainment across key stage 2 and key stage 4 and our interventions will focus on raising attainment by improving school standards.<\/p>

The opportunity areas were selected using the 2016 Social Mobility Commission\u2019s Index and the department\u2019s Achieving Excellence Areas Index. The opportunity areas are working to improve educational outcomes and social mobility for children and young people in 12 areas.<\/p>

The areas will have received a total of £108 million by August 2022, since they were launched in 2017.<\/p>

Education Investment Areas include the 12 local authority areas which contain the opportunity areas. These areas will benefit from both programmes.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4703", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Barran"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Barran"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2022-02-09", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2022-02-09T16:54:00.807Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2022-02-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Education: Regional Planning and Development"} , "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 differences between (1) the Education Investment Areas announced in the Levelling Up the United Kingdom white paper, and (2) the Opportunity Areas that were announced by the Department for Education in October 2017.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1241", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Watson of Invergowrie"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Watson of Invergowrie"} ], "uin" : "HL5907"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1205380", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1205380/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

We want to get all children and young people back into education as soon as the scientific advice allows because it is the best place for them to learn, and because we know how important it is for their wellbeing to have social interactions with their teachers and friends. Our intention is for all children to return to school from September.<\/p>

Within the next two weeks, we will publish further information and guidance to help schools prepare for September. We will be guided by the latest scientific advice and are working with the sector to ensure our guidance provides schools with the further details they need, including any protective measures that may be necessary to keep children and teachers as safe as possible, staffing advice and transport considerations.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4218", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Berridge"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Berridge"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2020-07-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "HL5908"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2020-07-01T15:54:18.727Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2020-06-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Schools: Coronavirus"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what advice they are giving to schools in England on the process for reopening for the autumn term.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2569", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Greaves"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Greaves"} ], "uin" : "HL5907"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/850563", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/850563/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

On his recent visit to Burma on 10 February the Foreign Secretary pressed the Burmese authorities to investigate violations by security forces, including sexual violence. The UK Government stands ready to offer support to credible and transparent investigations.

The drug Lanosterol is not licensed for human use in the United Kingdom.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is responsible for the licensing of medicinal products according to legislation set out in European Directive 2001/83 EC. The MHRA's primary aim is the protection of public health, for which an important objective is assessing the safety, quality and efficacy of medicines, and authorising their sale or supply in the UK for human use.<\/p>

<\/p>

A medicine can only become licenced if an application is made to the MHRA for a licence, usually by the manufacturer, demonstrating that the product meets the required standards of safety, quality and efficacy. In their role as a regulator, the MHRA is not in a position to hold product licences or to solicit for new product licence applications.<\/p>

<\/p>

There has been no evidence submitted to MHRA to support the use of Lanosterol in humans at present. There have been no applications for UK clinical trials or marketing authorisations for this product.<\/p>

<\/p>

Under their terms of service, general practitioners and hospital doctors are allowed to prescribe any medicinal product, including any unlicensed medicinal product, which they consider necessary for the treatment of their patients and under their clinical responsibility. They should always satisfy themselves that the medicinal products or other substances they consider appropriate for their patients can be safely prescribed, that patients are adequately monitored and that, where necessary, expert hospital supervision is available. We would expect clinicians to also seek informed consent from their patients on the basis that there are risks associated with using an unlicensed medicine as well as potential therapeutic benefit(s). Patients should also be informed that the licensing assessment of the medicine for unlicensed use will not have taken place.<\/p>

The effect of the Ebola outbreak on Universal Health Coverage will be discussed at the next Commonwealth Health Ministers Meeting in May. Supporting countries to strengthen their health systems remains a top priority for the Government\u2019s health work in West Africa and beyond.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government has met with the Commonwealth Foundation to discuss how civil society in Sierra Leone can be supported in tackling the Ebola crisis.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The Ebola outbreak has further demonstrated the importance of supporting countries to implement the International Health Regulations core capacities in order to detect and respond to outbreaks quickly. The Government is keen to accelerate international efforts to this end, working closely with the World Health Organization and through partnerships such as the Global Health Security Agenda. The Government sees the Commonwealth Health Ministers Meeting as an opportunity for the Commonwealth Secretariat to raise awareness of the importance of health system strengthening in the Commonwealth.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government will work with the Government of Sierra Leone and partners to seek a legacy of effective systems and structures that will contribute to improved future service delivery and infrastructure. This will ensure that should Sierra Leone be faced with a subsequent outbreak of Ebola or other disease, it is able to respond effectively.<\/p>

The Treasury Solicitor's Department (TSol), which provides legal services to a number of government departments and bodies, conducted an annual client satisfaction survey in January 2014 The outcome of the survey was reported to the TSol Board and is one of the measures agreed with TSol by HM Treasury.<\/p>

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) are conducting a survey of victims of crime who had received the revised victim communication and liaison scheme which is currently being piloted by three CPS Areas. The survey is still ongoing but will feed into the evaluation of the pilots later this year.<\/p>

There have been no other external customer, user or satisfaction surveys conducted by the Law Officers' Departments during the past 12 months.<\/p>
