answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>Student nurses in training are supernumerary to the workforce and as such do not provide any Service. It takes three years to train a nurse and we have over 52,000 students in training. The University and College Admissions Service reports show that nationally, the number of applicants to nursing courses is up 4% compared to the same point last year.</p><p>In Northamptonshire the local clinical commissioning groups report that the number of students who started in September is stable, with further work on-going locally to increase numbers for the March 2020 intake. The Department has put in place a financial package for students that means a typical student has 25% more money to live on while studying than under the bursary system.</p> answering member printed Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford question first answered 08/10/2019 14:39:34 answering member 4019 label Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford

tabling member printed	Lord Hunt of Kings Heath
uin	HL17908
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>Under the Fraud Act 2006, it is a crime to dishonestly make a false representation to make a gain, to cause loss to another or expose another to risk of loss. The Government takes fraud extremely seriously and recognises the devastating impacts that fraud can have on individuals and businesses.</p><p> </p><p>Decisions concerning how lenders assess mortgage applications, including how information from Credit Reference Agencies (CRAs) is used, are commercial decisions for banks and building societies.</p><p> </p><p>It is worth being aware that CRAs do not hold blacklists and do not tell a lender whether it should offer credit. Instead lenders use information from CRAs to come to their own commercial judgement. This means that while one lender may be unwilling to provide a mortgage due to a borrower’s credit history, that is not necessarily the case for other lenders.</p> answering member printed The Earl of Courtown question first answered 08/10/2019 12:03:45 answering member 3359 label Biography information for The Earl of Courtown

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to encourage NHS employers to introduce flexibility in recruitment procedures for doctors so that junior doctors on training programmes abroad, including the diploma in tropical medicine, do not have to fly back for interviews during their period abroad.
tabling member printed	Lord Hunt of Kings Heath
uin	HL17910
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>The Enhancing Junior Doctors’ Working Lives programme was established by Health Education England in March 2016, to improve the quality of life of doctors in training. This programme includes a specific workstream to make the recruitment process and subsequent deployment to training programmes more flexible for trainees applying from the United Kingdom and abroad.</p><p>Specialty courses who use the Multi-Specialty Recruitment Assessment (MSRA) as part of their selection process allow the test to be taken overseas, reducing the need to travel to the UK. For general practice and core psychiatry, applicants who reach the bypass score in the MSRA will progress directly to the offers stage, without the need to attend a selection centre.</p><p>HEE is in the process of re-developing its digital Oriel recruitment system for the 2021 recruitment round, which will go live in June 2020 and an electronic interface with e-portfolios has been proposed. Royal Colleges are each responsible for their own portfolio.</p><p>At present, HEE does not support Skype interviews of doctors in training as part of national selection due to a number of difficulties it would give recruiters and assessors, including verification of identity, replication of national processes and invigilation. Skype interviews are available for applicants with specific health requirements who are unable to travel.</p><p>Individual trusts are responsible for setting the application and recruitment processes to positions within that trust.</p> answering member printed Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford grouped question UIN HL17911 question first answered 08/10/2019 14:33:24 answering member 4019 label Biography information for Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford
