answer text <p>Discussions with Scottish Ministers on the Post Office (Horizon System) Offences Bill have principally been led by the Minister of State in the Department for Business and Trade, Minister Hollinrake. I have not had discussions with the Lord Advocate regarding the Scottish Government’s proposed amendments to the Post Office (Horizon System) Offences Bill.</p><p> </p><p>Noting Scotland’s historically separate legal jurisdiction and the unique role of the Lord Advocate and Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service in respect of prosecutions in Scotland, it is the UK Government’s view that it is appropriate for the Scottish Government to bring forward proposals to address prosecutions on this matter in Scotland, and for those to be scrutinised by the Scottish Parliament. The UK Government remains committed to supporting the Scottish Government in bringing forward its own proposals.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>The below table shows the estimated costs of various average pay rises for junior doctors above the existing 2023/24 pay scales which included an average pay rise of 8.8% :</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Average pay rise</p></td><td><p>Estimated cost in 2024/25</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>5%</p></td><td><p>£400,000,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>10%</p></td><td><p>£900,000,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>15%</p></td><td><p>£1,300,000,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>20%</p></td><td><p>£1,700,000,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>25%</p></td><td><p>£2,100,000,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>30%</p></td><td><p>£2,600,000,000</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>35%</p></td><td><p>£3,000,000,000</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>These are estimates of the expected costs if the pay rise were given in 2024/25. They cover recurrent increases to the substantive pay bill, including employer national insurance and pension contributions, as well as knock-on impacts such as agency price increases. The exact cost will vary depending on the workforce size and composition.</p><p>These estimates do not take into account any wider considerations of the impact on wider National Health Service and public sector pay.</p>

answer text <p>The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has an active programme to promote awareness of tick-borne diseases among local authorities, health professionals and the public by 2025 in line with the Third National Adaptation Programme. This includes Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis. UKHSA has worked to develop a toolkit for local authorities and key stakeholders to raise awareness of the potential risks created by ticks and tick-borne disease, a copy of which is attached. UKHSA also publishes Lyme disease data on Fingertips, which is an open access public health data platform which allows the public, health professionals, and local authorities to view trends, compare indicators and understand the incidence of Lyme disease in their area.</p><p>Clinicians are also engaged via teaching sessions for General Practitioners, seminars for infection specialists, and briefing notes to notify clinicians of the possibility of tick-borne diseases, with detail of compatible signs and symptoms. Disease messaging is shared through media, social, and stakeholder channels at a national and regional level, such as the #BeTickAware campaign which aims to raise awareness in the population, including those at risk of exposure through work or leisure.</p>
