The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) advised that COVID-19 vaccination should be offered to the following individuals in autumn 2024:</p><p>- adults aged 65 years old and over;</p><p>- residents in a care home for older adults; and</p><p>- persons aged six months to 64 years old in a clinical risk group, as defined in the COVID-19 chapter of the Green Book.</p><p>My Rt hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care accepted the JCVI’s advice for COVID-19 vaccination in autumn 2024, and so COVID-19 vaccination will be offered to all adults aged 65 years old and over in the upcoming campaign.</p> answering member constituency Gorton and Denton answering member printed Andrew Gwynne question first answered 13/09/2024 11:20:51 answering member 1506 label Biography information for Andrew Gwynne

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2024 answer text <p>The UK National Screening Committee (UK NSC) advises ministers and the National Health Service on all aspects of population and targeted screening. Screening for prostate cancer is currently not recommended in the United Kingdom. This is because of the inaccuracy of the current best test, the Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA). A PSA-based screening programme could harm men, as some of them would be diagnosed with a cancer that would not have caused them problems during their life.</p><p>The UK NSC is currently undertaking an evidence review for prostate cancer screening, and plans to report within its three-year work plan. The evidence review includes modelling of several approaches to prostate cancer screening, which includes different potential ways of screening the whole population from 40 years of age onwards, and targeted screening aimed at groups of people identified as being at higher than average risk, such as black men or men with a family history of cancer.</p> answering member constituency Gorton and Denton answering member printed Andrew Gwynne question first answered 13/09/2024 11:22:57 answering member 1506 label Biography information for Andrew Gwynne

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2024 answer text <p>The Government is concerned about the worrying rise in vaping among children, as rates of youth vaping have tripled in the past four years, and 18% of children have tried a vape. All too often, vaping products are promoted in a way that appeals to children, despite the risks of nicotine addiction and the unknown harms.</p><p>To address this, the Tobacco and Vapes Bill will reduce the appeal and availability of vapes to children. The bill will stop vapes from deliberately being branded and advertised to children, including regulations on flavours, packaging, and changing how and where they are displayed in shops. The bill will be introduced to Parliament soon.</p><p>We will publish an impact assessment for the bill shortly, and we will publish further impact assessments alongside our future vaping regulations. We will also undertake an implementation review after a set period to determine the effect of these policies on youth vaping rates.</p> answering member constituency Gorton and Denton answering member printed Andrew Gwynne question first answered 13/09/2024 11:06:06 answering member 1506 label Biography information for Andrew Gwynne

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2024 answer text <p>The UK wants to see Lebanon stable, secure, and prosperous. We are working with the authorities to support the efforts of a caretaker government to safeguard Lebanon's stability and set the country on the path to recovery, but we are clear that these efforts are undermined by the ongoing Presidential vacuum. The government of Lebanon urgently needs to end the political deadlock and appoint a President who can deliver the reforms necessary to solve the country's economic and security crises and agree a political solution to de-escalate tensions across the Blue Line boundary with Israel. Ministers frequently raise this with Lebanese interlocutors. The Foreign Secretary emphasised the need for a president to Prime Minister Mikati and Foreign Minister Bou Habib during his visit to Lebanon in August and Minister Falconer most recently raised it with Lebanon's Acting Central Bank Governor on 5 September.</p> answering member constituency Lincoln answering member printed Mr Hamish Falconer question first answered 13/09/2024 11:34:52 answering member 5148
