answer text <p>This Government is committed to protecting the rights of tenants and giving them more security. We are aware that people are living in the private rented sector for much longer. That is why we recently consulted on ways to overcome the barriers to landlords offering longer, more secure tenancies in the private rented sector.</p><p>We are considering responses to the consultation and will be bringing forward proposals that make the system work for both tenants and landlords. Our proposals relate to tenancies in England only. We will be providing more information on our consultation response shortly.</p><p>In the meantime, there is nothing to stop tenants asking their landlord for a longer tenancy. We have published a model tenancy agreement which landlords and tenants can use as the basis for longer, family friendly tenancies, available for free at <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/model-agreement-for-a-shorthold-assured-tenancy" target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/publications/model-agreement-for-a-shorthold-assured-tenancy</a>. In addition, the measures announced in the Housing White Paper resulted in many of the largest build to rent operators offering their tenants the option of longer tenancies.</p>

answer text <p>The Department’s National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) welcomes funding applications for research into any aspect of human health, including hearing loss.

Information on individual projects funded by the NIHR can be found at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.journalslibrary.nihr.ac.uk/programmes/" target="_blank">https://www.journalslibrary.nihr.ac.uk/programmes/</a></p><p> </p><p>NIHR funding for research projects into hearing loss was £8.3 million over the last five years.</p><p> </p><p>NIHR funded infrastructure supports research into hearing loss. Three NIHR Biomedical Research Centres have research themes on hearing health, conducting research into the identification, understanding, prevention, and interventions to alleviate hearing loss across the life course. NIHR funded infrastructure is supporting studies into identification and treatment of hearing loss in babies and children.</p><p> </p><p>It is not possible to further disaggregate this spend or support by age group.</p>
