uin	HL11234
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/11/2018 answer text <p>The Government recommends eating some meat, fish, eggs, beans and other non-dairy sources of protein as part of a healthy balanced diet. Government advice is that we should eat on average no more than 70 grams of red meat a day due to the increased risk of bowel cancer. It also recommends eating two portions of fish a week, one of which should be oily, as oily fish provide long chain omega-3 fatty acids, which may help to prevent heart disease.</p><p>Dietary recommendations for meat and fish consumption are published in the national food model, the <em>Eatwell Guide</em> and its supporting messages. The <em>Eatwell Guide</em> provides visual representation on national guidance of how a balanced diet looks. A copy of the <em>Eatwell Guide</em> is attached.</p><p>Supporting documentation includes the <em>Government Dietary Recommendations: Government recommendations for energy and nutrients for males and females aged 1-18 years and 19+ years</em>, which outlines the breakdown of calorie, vitamin and mineral intake for different age groups. A copy of the <em>Government Dietary Recommendations</em> is attached.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy attachment 1 file name Eatwell_guide_colour.pdf title Eatwell Guide 2 file name government_dietary_recommendations.pdf title Government Dietary Recommendations question first answered 15/11/2018 16:25:57 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/11/2018 answer text <p>The commissioning of health and social care services for children with disabilities is the responsibility of clinical commissioning groups and local authorities respectively. Local commissioners are best placed to assess the needs of the local population and which areas may need strengthening. Clinical commissioning groups must ensure that they secure health services to meet the needs of disabled children to a reasonable extent.</p><p>Children’s social care is the responsibility of the Department for Education. All disabled children are regarded as children ‘in need’ under the Children Act 1989 and may receive social care from the local authority. The Children and Families Act 2014 placed a duty on local authorities to assess whether a parent carer in their area has needs for support.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 15/11/2018 16:20:38 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy
