answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/12/2017 answer text <p>Given the range of professions which might support a person with dementia, which includes therapists, general practitioners, consultants, psychiatrists, and social care staff, we have not made any central estimates of the number of staff that will be required to care for people with dementia in the next five years. At a national level, we have published a Dementia Core Skills Education and Training Framework, launched in October 2015, to help ensure staff have the right skills. The Framework was commissioned and funded by the Department and developed by Skills for Health and Health Education England (HEE) in partnership with Skills for Care. Development of the framework was guided by an Expert Group including a wide range of health and social care organisations, relevant Royal Colleges and education providers.</p><p> </p><p>The Framework sets out the core skills and knowledge which would be transferable and applicable across different types of service provision for people with dementia. It includes expected learning outcomes for training delivery, key policy and legal references and is aligned to related national occupational standards. The Framework is intended to ensure the quality and consistency of dementia training, and to help prevent unnecessary duplication of training.</p><p> </p><p>Under the Government’s mandate to HEE, HEE will ensure that Tier 1 (awareness raising) dementia training opportunities and tools are available to all National Health Service staff by the end of 2018. Within the Government’s Dementia 2020 Challenge we are considering how to extend tier 2 training to all staff across health and care settings who are involved in care for people with dementia.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 08/12/2017 11:30:15 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/12/2017 answer text <p>As announced at Autumn Budget 2017, HM Treasury is making £3 billion of additional funding available over the next two years - £1.5 billion in both 2018/19 and 2019/20 – so that departments and the devolved administrations can continue to prepare effectively for Brexit. We are currently working with HM Treasury and Department for Exiting the European Union to establish what we need to prepare effectively, and what additional funding should be supplied – HM Treasury will aim to agree 2018/19 allocations in early 2018. Funding requirements for 2019/20 will be affected by progress in negotiations with the EU and will therefore be decided at a later date. Additional funding received from the Reserve will be set out at Supplementary Estimates in the usual way.</p> answering member constituency Ludlow answering member printed Mr Philip Dunne question first answered 08/12/2017 11:35:31 answering member 1542 label Biography information for Philip Dunne
