answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2021 answer text <p>It is not known how long antibodies made in response to natural COVID-19 infection persist, and whether immunisation could offer more protection. However, it is expected the COVID-19 vaccine would boost any pre-existing antibodies from previous infection. There is no evidence of any safety concerns from vaccinating individuals with a history of COVID-19 infection or with detectable antibodies to COVID-19. Therefore, people who have had COVID-19 disease – whether confirmed or suspected – should still receive the COVID-19 vaccine.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 10/09/2021 09:12:09 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/09/2021 answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation’s (JCVI) interim advice is that COVID-19 booster vaccinations should first be offered to the most vulnerable. The JCVI advises a two stage approach, with individuals in stage one offered a booster vaccine and flu vaccine, as soon as possible from September. Individuals in stage two would be offered a booster vaccine as soon as practicable after stage one, with equal emphasis on deployment of the flu vaccine where eligible. The JCVI suggests those aged 16 to 49 years old who are in an influenza or COVID-19 at risk group, including some patients with chronic respiratory disease and asthma are currently included in stage two.</p><p>Final decisions on the timing and scope and cohort eligibility, booster programme will be confirmed once the JCVI has provided their final advice.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi grouped question UIN 42174 question first answered 08/09/2021 15:14:12 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2021 answer text <p>The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation advises that asplenia or dysfunction of the spleen constitutes a risk group for the purpose of COVID-19 vaccination of children. Hyposplenism or reduced spleen function in coeliac disease is uncommon in children and the prevalence correlates with the duration of exposure to gluten. Therefore, children diagnosed with coeliac disease early in life whose condition is well managed are unlikely to require vaccination.</p><p>Clinical judgment should be applied in identifying these children on a case by case basis.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 10/09/2021 09:17:38 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, how many doses of covid-19 vaccine the UK has received from Covax for each month since Covax has been in operation; for what reasons the UK has received doses through Covax; and if he will make a statement.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2021 answer text <p>The UK committed approximately £71 million to the self-financing facility of COVAX, which enables high and upper-middle income countries to pool investments in potential vaccine candidates, and supported its establishment last year. This gives us the option to buy vaccines for up to 20% of the UK population - approximately 27 million doses. The Government has separately committed £548 million to the COVAX Advance Market Commitment, which will distribute 1.2 billion doses of vaccines to developing countries this year.</p><p> </p><p>In addition, I am proud that as part of our commitment to the G7 to donate 100m doses over the course of the next year, the UK has so far donated over 10 million doses to those countries most in need, of which over 6 million have gone to COVAX. Throughout the COVID-19 vaccination programme, vaccine supply and deliveries have been carefully managed by the Vaccine Taskforce to meet the requirements of the domestic vaccination programme as well as support other countries’ domestic campaigns. The recent sharing of 4 million doses with Australia is a good example of this.</p><p> </p><p>I refer the Hon. Member to the answer I gave her on 3rd March 2021 to Question <a href="https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-questions/detail/2021-02-23/157070" target="_blank">157070</a>: the UK procured approximately 0.5 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine through COVAX, which were delivered earlier this year. These doses helped the NHS deliver our vaccination programme as quickly as possible. No further doses have been received by the UK from COVAX.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 13/09/2021 13:04:33 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what steps he is taking to promote ethanol production in the UK.
tabling member constituency	Wokingham
tabling member printed	John Redwood
uin	41600
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/09/2021 answer text <p>The UK biofuel market, including bioethanol, has been supported since 2008 through the Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation (RTFO). The RTFO is a certificate trading scheme which sets targets and provides financial incentives for the supply of sustainable biofuels. This month the government has introduced E10 as the standard petrol across Great Britain. The introduction of E10 increases the amount of bioethanol blended with petrol sold at forecourts in the UK. E10’s introduction has been welcomed by the UK bioethanol industry as positive for the environment and jobs in UK production plants and supply chain.</p><p> </p><p>More broadly, the chemicals sector is crucial to the UK; with 83% of employment outside of London and the South East it provides high-skilled, highly paid jobs across the UK and supplies essential inputs to almost all other manufacturing industries.</p><p> </p><p>Last year's UK Budget sets out our ambition to spread opportunity across the UK, led by vital investment, to help important businesses such as chemical companies to grow, and improve access to skills, capital and ideas. This ambition is being supported by measures such as the new two-year super-deduction that will cut companies’ tax bill by 25p for every pound they invest in new equipment and mean they can reduce their taxable profits by 130% of the cost. In addition, the Government has a target for total R&amp;D investment to reach 2.4% of GDP by 2027 and in the recent Innovation strategy we have committed to increase our annual public investment in R&amp;D to a record £22billion.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 13/09/2021 15:22:11 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi
