answer text <p>The Department does not collect specific data around the sexual assault of National Health Service staff by patients or associated compensation payments, as this issue is expected to be dealt with locally, in line with the NHS complaints procedure. Further information is available at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-nhs-constitution-for-england/how-do-i-give-feedback-or-make-a-complaint-about-an-nhs-service" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-nhs-constitution-for-england/how-do-i-give-feedback-or-make-a-complaint-about-an-nhs-service</a></p><p> </p><p>We are committed to supporting NHS trusts to protect their staff from sexual harassment. The Social Partnership Forum has led a call to action for NHS organisations to eliminate all forms of bullying and harassment as part of creating a healthy, inclusive and compassionate workplace culture. Eradicating sexual harassment will be one of its top priorities in 2019/20.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>

answer text <p>As part of a responsible Government, the Department is doing everything appropriate to prepare for European Union exit. It is a priority for the Department and industry to work together to put in place robust preparations to help ensure a continuous supply of medicines and medical products. We recognise suppliers may incur additional costs for their contingency planning, including storage costs, rerouting products and preparing for new border arrangements. We have been working closely with industry to minimise costs and are considering how best we might support suppliers in their contingency planning. <br></p> more like this

answer text <p>On 5 August 2019 the Prime Minister announced £854 million of new capital funding to provide upgrades to 20 hospitals across England. This is on top of the £2.4 billion capital investment awarded to over 150 sustainability and transformation partnership (STP) schemes across England since July 2017 to modernise and transform the National Health Service’s buildings and services.</p><p>Of the £854 million, £21.3 million has been awarded to United Lincolnshire Hospitals Trust for the Transforming Urgent and Emergency Care at Pilgrim Hospital Boston scheme, which will improve patient flow in Boston by developing urgent and emergency care zones in accident and emergency. In December 2018, Lincolnshire also benefitted from United Lincolnshire Hospitals NHS Trust’s £1.5 million scheme for a Multi-Purpose Education Centre to support University Medical School of Excellence (Lincoln).</p><p>An additional £1 billion was also announced on 5 August to be spent this financial year, allowing existing upgrade programmes to proceed and tackle the most urgent infrastructure projects across the country.</p><p>My Rt. hon. Friend as the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care recently set out, a new Health Infrastructure Plan will be brought forward to deliver a strategic major hospital rebuilding programme, providing the necessary health infrastructure across the country for the years to come.</p><p>NHS facilities in other parts of the United Kingdom are a matter for the devolved administrations.</p>
