answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/07/2020 answer text <p>The Millennium Development Goals expired in 2015 and were replaced by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which run until 2030. Significant progress has been made in recent decades on global health, for example the global neonatal mortality rate fell from 31 deaths per thousand live births in 2000 to 18 deaths per thousand in 2018, while the number of global malaria deaths fell from 840,000 to 405,000 over the same period.</p><p>The UK has played a strong part in this. UK investment in Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance since 2000 has supported the immunisation of 760 million children and contributed to preventing thirteen million deaths from vaccine-preventable diseases. The UK is also the second-highest country donor on malaria.</p><p>COVID-19 risks reversing these earlier gains. The UK is committed to supporting developing countries’ health systems to respond to COVID-19 and to achieving the health-related SDGs. We will do this with a particular focus on ending the preventable deaths of mothers, new-born babies and children by 2030 and also through increasing UK leadership on malaria.</p> answering member constituency Aldridge-Brownhills answering member printed Wendy Morton question first answered 22/07/2020 17:18:41 answering member 4358 label Biography information for Wendy Morton

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/07/2020 answer text <p>NHS England advises that any woman who is experiencing pain, or discomfort due to heavy menstrual bleeding should seek advice from a general practitioner (GP) as a first course of action. Advice for this is available on NHS.UK, where you can undertake a quick ‘Heavy period self-assessment’, which can advise on simple steps that may help, as well as speaking to a GP. The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence has produced a guideline on assessment and treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding, which was published in March 2018.</p><p>To ensure women and girls can receive treatment for other women-specific conditions, many GPs and clinicians are currently offering telephone consultations or consultations via social media apps to assist during the COVID-19 outbreak.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 29/07/2020 13:33:17 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/07/2020 answer text <p>The Government publishes aggregate application and approval figures for the Coronavirus Large Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS), the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS), Bounce Back Loan Scheme (BBLS) and Future Fund but does not hold specific information relating to individual companies who have accessed these schemes. HMRC publishes weekly management information on the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (CJRS) and monthly management information on VAT deferrals. On 11 June HMRC published the Official Statistics for the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme which included a breakdown of recipients by sector, but not individual companies. Therefore the Government does not collect data on the information requested.</p><p> </p><p>Regarding the Future Fund, it is an investor-led scheme with clear and published eligibility criteria. The scheme is being delivered by the British Business Bank and the Government is unable to comment on individual applications.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Saffron Walden answering member printed Kemi Badenoch grouped question UIN 74605 question first answered 20/07/2020 14:49:47 answering member 4597 label Biography information for Kemi Badenoch
