</p><p>Attendance figures are collected from churches for the first 4 Sundays of October and in the following Monday-Saturday midweek periods - this exercise is referred to as the &quot;October count”. Figures include attendance at baptisms, as these usually take place in service, but not attendance at weddings and funerals. Attendance at services for schools is NOT included in the average weekly and average Sunday attendance figures but is reported separately.</p><p>In 2013, the question was changed to specifically ask about attendance at school services. Prior to 2013, it was apparent that some churches included such attendance in their reported figures while others did not. The change in question during this year resulted in a large change in the average weekly attendance from 2012 to 2013 and a more consistent practice across the church as a whole.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 12/04/2024 13:23:00 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

uin	19962
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/04/2024 answer text <p>The Church of England law around church buildings is complex, but there are two main types; a consecrated church building where the bishop has performed a rite of consecration, setting the church building (and font and altar) aside for public worship, and a place of worship that has been licensed for that purpose by the bishop (not consecrated).</p><p>The Church of England does not have a rite of &quot;deconsecration&quot; as such – it is more usual to refer to the 'closure' of a church that is consecrated. The process of closure is a legal one, set out in the Mission and Pastoral Measure 2011 and its predecessor legislation. The bishop's consecration of a church building for worship cannot be removed. However, the legal effects of consecration can be withdrawn in order to allow the disposal of the building and a new use to be found for the building.</p><p>Since 1994 there have been around 650 closure schemes for consecrated church buildings brought forward under the Mission and Pastoral Measure. In some of those cases, the closed church building will have been sold to other Christian denominations for worship use, and in some cases some occasional worship continues, even if the closed church building is being used for community activities, for example.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 25/04/2024 12:27:05 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/04/2024 answer text <p>NHS England has developed an all-age palliative and end of life care dashboard, which brings together all relevant local data in one place in an easily accessible format. The dashboard is accessible to integrated care boards (ICBs) and their commissioners and helps them understand the palliative and end of life care needs of their local population, including children and young people. This supports commissioners in their statutory duty for palliative and end of life care, enabling ICBs to put plans in place to address and track the improvement of health inequalities, and ensure that funding is distributed fairly based on prevalence.</p><p>Funding has been confirmed to ensure continued maintenance of the dashboard for 2024/25, with discussions ongoing regarding further development and use. There is, however, existing publicly available data, such as the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities ‘Fingertips’ data on palliative and end of life care.</p> answering member constituency Faversham and Mid Kent answering member printed Helen Whately question first answered 23/04/2024 12:47:06 answering member 4527 label Biography information for Helen Whately

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/04/2024 answer text <p>The most recent data available on UK ethnicity pay gaps is for 2022. The adjusted pay gaps for the most recent 5 years (2018 to 2022) for the Bangladeshi, Pakistani and Caribbean ethnic groups are provided below. A positive percentage value for the ethnicity pay gap means that the relevant ethnic group earns less than the white reference group.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Adjusted Ethnicity Pay Gaps</p></td><td><p>Bangladeshi</p></td><td><p>Pakistani</p></td><td><p>Caribbean</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2022</p></td><td><p>UK born 8.3% Non UK born 17.4%</p></td><td><p>UK born estimate considered unreliable (-2.0%) Non UK born 14.1%</p></td><td><p>UK born 3.3% Non UK born 4.7%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2021</p></td><td><p>UK born 18.3% Non UK born 20.4%</p></td><td><p>UK born 9.5% Non UK born 11.9%</p></td><td><p>UK born 8.0% Non UK born 10.5%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2020</p></td><td><p>UK born 3.5% Non UK born 22.6%</p></td><td><p>UK born 12.1% Non UK born 20.8%</p></td><td><p>UK born 4.2% Non UK born estimate considered unreliable (3.7%)</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2019</p></td><td><p>UK born 7.0% Non UK born 20.6%</p></td><td><p>UK born 3.2% Non UK born 16.0%</p></td><td><p>UK born 6.3% Non UK born 11.9%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018</p></td><td><p>UK born 9.7% Non UK born 28.7%</p></td><td><p>UK born 6.1% Non UK born 14.7%</p></td><td><p>UK born 7.5% Non UK born 9.4%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>Adjusted pay gaps account for a variety of pay determining characteristics such as occupation, age, sex and geographical region. These figures are split into UK and non-UK born as we do not have the overall adjusted pay gap available for these specific ethnic groups. Further data on ethnicity pay gaps is available from the ONS website at <a href="https://www.ons.gov.uk/employmentandlabourmarket/peopleinwork/earningsandworkinghours/articles/ethnicitypaygapsingreatbritain/2012to2022/relateddata" target="_blank">https://www.ons.gov.uk/employmentandlabourmarket/peopleinwork/earningsandworkinghours/articles/ethnicitypaygapsingreatbritain/2012to2022/relateddata</a>.</p><p> </p><p>Closing ethnicity pay gaps requires much wider shifts in society. Our ambitious Inclusive Britain strategy, published in March 2022, set out 74 bold actions to tackle entrenched ethnic disparities in employment, education, health and criminal justice. This includes our comprehensive guidance for employers on ethnicity pay reporting, published last April, which set out best practice on measuring, analysing and reporting ethnicity pay gaps. We also launched an Inclusion at Work Panel last year aimed at helping employers achieve fairness and inclusion in the workplace.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Barran grouped question UIN HL3189 question first answered 26/04/2024 14:00:42 answering member 4703 label Biography information for Baroness Barran
