We recognise that for the most vulnerable this can be particularly stressful and damaging however, we are focused on stopping unscrupulous fraudsters in their tracks and supporting victims so they can recover and protect themselves going forward.</p><p>Raising awareness and safeguarding victims will form a key part of the Government’s forthcoming fraud strategy. We are already taking concrete steps to protect the most vulnerable victims:</p><ul><li>We are working with industry to do more to protect victims from fraud. We have re-launched the Joint Fraud Taskforce (JFT) which brings together the public and private sectors to combat fraud and agreed voluntary sector charters with the banking, telecommunications and accountancy sectors that among other things have resulted in less scam messages reaching victims.</li><li>We continue to support the National Trading Standards on the roll out of call blocking devices to vulnerable people and the National Economic Crime Centre have recently provided further funding for the delivery of additional devices. These devices have helped to provide protection against nuisance and scam calls.</li></ul><p>We have established the Victims of Fraud Working Group which works to bring together key stakeholders from law enforcement, victim support services and the private sector to create a forum to discuss the victim support landscape, share best practice, close vulnerabilities in the system and ensure that victims of fraud and cyber crime are consistently receiving the right level of support.</p> answering member constituency Tonbridge and Malling answering member printed Tom Tugendhat question first answered 17/10/2022 16:04:29 answering member 4462 label Biography information for Tom Tugendhat

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/05/2022 answer text <p>There are currently no plans to do so. The provision of services to meet the medical and healthcare needs of children and young people with complex needs is the responsibility of the local National Health Service. This includes the provision of any medical equipment, such as special beds, bed equipment, hoists and aids to help with incontinence, mobility or hearing. NHS Supply Chain are the main provider of equipment and consumables, although providers are free to source from other suppliers.</p><p>Under the Care Act 2014, the local authority is responsible for providing any non-medical care services a child or young person is assessed as needing. This could include equipment for daily living. The provision of such equipment is subject to a Care Act Assessment of needs by the relevant local authority, which is strength-based and seeks to optimise independence and safety.</p> answering member constituency Chichester answering member printed Gillian Keegan question first answered 27/05/2022 10:14:15 answering member 4680 label Biography information for Gillian Keegan previous answer version 2207 answering member constituency Chichester answering member printed Gillian Keegan answering member 4680 label Biography information for Gillian Keegan
