We are developing a national capability for collecting, assessing and storing indecent images of children (IIOC) for law enforcement agencies. This capability will also be used to provide hash set data to the internet industry, to allow them to remove these appalling images from their networks.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/10/2014 answer text <p>The decision that there should be a two-stage ex-gratia payment system was taken when the scheme was first established in 2003-04. An initial ‘stage 1’ lump sum payment was made in respect of chronic infection with hepatitis C, with a second ‘stage 2’ lump sum payment when people reached a more advanced stage of illness. The Department sought the advice of an independent group of experts regarding a medical trigger for the higher payment that could reliably be diagnosed with non-invasive tests that were available nationwide. The advice received was that the second lump sum payment should be triggered following a diagnosis of cirrhosis or liver cancer, or if a person had received a liver transplant.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>In addition, as a result of the 2010 expert review, a further condition was added to those conditions that triggered eligibility for the second stage payment, namely hepatitis C-associated B-cell non-Hodgkins Lymphoma.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 27/10/2014 17:11:03 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison
