answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2018 answer text <p>Currently, rare diseases are defined as conditions affecting no more than five in 10,000 people in the European Union. The new European Clinical Trial Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 536/2014) will introduce an ‘ultra-rare’ condition and states that clinical trials for the development of orphan medicinal products and those of medicines affecting no more than one person in 50,000 in the EU (ultra-rare diseases) should be fostered, and in such areas, a rapid yet in-depth assessment is of particular importance. The new clinical trials regulation is expected to be implemented in the EU in late 2020. The Government has confirmed that United Kingdom law will remain aligned with the parts of the new EU clinical trials Regulation that are within the UK’s control.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 20/12/2018 17:10:46 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2018 answer text <p>The Government is committed to the safe and effective regulation of medicines in the United Kingdom; ensuring patients and the public have fast access to new, innovative medicines, including medicines for rare diseases.</p><p> </p><p>The agreement of an implementation period will ensure that access to medicines continues, and patient safety is maintained, in both the UK and European Union markets. Beyond that, the Political Declaration sets out a plan for a free trade area for goods, underpinned by deep regulatory co-operation, as well as a joint commitment to explore close cooperation with the European Medicines Agency.</p><p> </p><p>The Government also continues to prepare for the unlikely outcome that we leave the EU without any deal in March 2019. The Department has been engaging with all pharmaceutical companies that supply the United Kingdom with pharmacy or prescription-only medicines from, or via, the EU/European Economic Area, on their contingency plans in the event of a no deal EU Exit.</p><p> </p><p>Whatever the exit scenario, we will work to ensure that the UK will remain a world leader for the treatment of rare diseases after the UK leaves the EU, that UK patients are able to access the best and most innovative medicines including medicines for rare diseases and that their safety is protected. The UK life sciences industry has much to offer in creating, developing, trialing and commercialising medicines that will benefit UK patients and strengthen the ability of the UK to compete internationally.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 20/12/2018 17:07:43 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/12/2018 answer text <p>The Government collects quarterly and annual statistics on how many people make homelessness applications to local authorities in England. This information can be found here:</p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/homelessness-statistics" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/homelessness-statistics</a>.</p><p>Details on homelessness in Scotland can be found here:</p><p><a href="https://www2.gov.scot/Topics/Statistics/Browse/Housing-Regeneration/RefTables" target="_blank">https://www2.gov.scot/Topics/Statistics/Browse/Housing-Regeneration/RefTables</a>.</p><p>Current data tools do not allow for an estimate of the number of veterans who are homeless. However, in April 2018 the Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government introduced a new, case-level data collection called H-CLIC (Homelessness Case Level Information Collection), from which the first tranche of data will be released in due course. This will give local authorities and Government more information regarding homelessness and those presenting as homeless, including if they are a previous member of the armed forces and have support needs.</p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 05/12/2018 14:16:55 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler
