Professor Dame Sally Davies, the United Kingdom Special Envoy on Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), visited Japan earlier this year and met with parliamentarians, senior officials and industry leaders to highlight the threat posed by AMR and to share experiences from the world-leading NHS England and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence antimicrobial reimbursement project.</p><p>Officials at the Department of Health and Social Care and the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office continue to have bilateral consultations with their Japanese counterparts on national research into new antimicrobial agents and UK Ministers also highlighted the importance of this during G7 Ministerial meetings.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/07/2023 answer text <p>All people in prison receive an early health assessment through a reception screening process. Every person receives a first and second stage health assessment, which incorporates a mental health screening in line with National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines. This screening includes questions and actions relating to their risk of self-harm and/or suicide, learning disabilities and neurodevelopmental disorders.</p><p>For women who are pregnant and in prison, a full health assessment is undertaken. Any risks, such as alcohol dependency which could lead to foetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD), should be monitored and managed by the healthcare team, including midwife support. Currently there is no specific treatment for FASD, but where a baby is at risk of FASD, this will form part of the birth plan with the hospital.</p> answering member printed Lord Markham question first answered 20/07/2023 15:54:33 answering member 4948 label Biography information for Lord Markham
