answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>The inclusion of a requirement to carry out the six-week maternal postnatal check for all mothers in the general medical services contract would need to be negotiated and agreed, as part of the annual contract negotiations. We have asked for this issue to be considered in the contract negotiations for 2019/20. The negotiations are expected to be concluded before the end of the year. The details of those negotiations are not generally discussed until an agreement on the way forward has been reached.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 20/11/2018 11:25:47 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine previous answer version 85824 answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/11/2018 answer text <p>Prior to 2018-19, local authorities were free to determine the balance of funding between their schools, high needs and early years budgets, all funded from the Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG). It is not possible to give figures for transfers from the schools block to high needs, as the precise amounts spent by local authorities will also be affected by transfers to and from DSG reserves, and any funding from other sources (for instance, local authorities’ general funds) spent on educational purposes.</p><p>In 2018-19, with the introduction of the national funding formulae for schools and high needs, we have limited this flexibility in order to ensure that the majority of schools funding that local authorities receive is going directly to schools.</p><p>Local authorities are able to move up to 0.5% of their funding from the schools block to the high needs block, with agreement of their schools forum. This is explained in the high needs operational guide, available at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/high-needs-funding-arrangements-2019-to-2020" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/high-needs-funding-arrangements-2019-to-2020</a>. Where a local authority wishes to move more funding, or the forum does not agree to the transfer, the local authority will be required to seek recourse to my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Education. Last year, after thorough consideration, 13 local authorities were granted the ability to move funding under these circumstances.</p><p>We will publish data shortly showing the amount of schools block funding the local authorities has allocated this year, compared to the amount they received, thereby providing an indication of funding directed to other areas, such as high needs.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 19/11/2018 17:18:42 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2018 answer text <p>Government Departments continue to engage with a wide range of businesses to understand their priorities and issues as we leave the European Union, both to inform our negotiating position, and our preparations in the unlikely event of there being no deal. NDAs are also a common component of contractual arrangements that are used to protect commercial considerations of the parties involved or to protect sensitives around the development of Government policy. It is entirely normal practice to use such agreements and they are therefore sometimes necessary for Government departments that are responsible for managing their preparations for leaving the EU.</p><p>For the Home Office, this is a complex cross cutting issue which has the potential to affect several Home Office business areas. Specific information relating to EU exit is not held centrally therefore we cannot give a definitive answer. However, to date the Home office has signed over a hundred NDA’s with ports to support EU exit preparations. Non-Disclosure Agreements with our key border delivery partners are crucial in supporting open exchanges of information and opinions about options and scenarios.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 27/11/2018 17:34:29 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
