answer text <p>My Rt. hon. Friend the First Secretary of State and Minister for the Cabinet Office, Damian Green, has announced this month that the Government will publish a Green Paper on care and support for older people by summer 2018. The Green Paper will set out proposals to reform care and support for older people.</p><p> </p><p>With the shifts we are seeing in society, including our ageing population, caring will increasingly become a core part of family life for all of us. That is why the Green Paper will include a focus on unpaid care and how our society supports carers as a vital part of a sustainable health and social care system.</p><p> </p><p>Ahead of the Green Paper’s publication, the Department will continue to lead a cross-Government programme of targeted work to support carers.</p><p> </p><p>Once the Green Paper is published by summer 2018, it will be subject to a full public consultation.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Currently, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency only regulates dermal fillers that are placed on the United Kingdom market as medical devices, as defined in the Medical Devices Regulations 2002. The majority of these products are intended to be used in reconstructive surgery, and thus they are considered to be medical devices, although some manufacturers also indicate their products for aesthetic use as well.</p><p> </p><p>Cosmetic dermal fillers placed on the market without any medical purpose being attributed to them by the manufacturer fall outside the scope of the Medical Devices Regulations, although in practice the majority of the products on the UK market are CE marked as medical devices.</p><p> </p><p>Under new European Union legislation concerning medical devices, published earlier this year, all dermal fillers will be regulated as medical devices, irrespective of whether or not the manufacturer ascribes a medical purpose to the product.</p><p> </p><p>Medical devices cannot be designated as “prescription only”, as this term only applies to medicinal products. The Government currently has no plans to introduce such a category for medical devices.</p>

answer text <p>The Government is committed to the effective regulation of those performing cosmetic procedures. Following Sir Bruce Keogh’s review of the regulation of cosmetic interventions, the Royal College of Surgeons has published a set of professional standards for cosmetic surgery and has launched a new certification scheme. This allows patients to search for a surgeon, including those in the private sector, who has appropriate training, qualifications and experience to perform the procedure they are considering.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The General Medical Council has introduced new guidance which sets out the standards for doctors carrying out cosmetic procedures. The guidance applies to all doctors who carry out both surgical and non-surgical procedures. The guidance says doctors must advertise and market services responsibly; give patients time for reflection; seek a patient’s consent themselves, not delegate it; provide continuity of care and support patient safety by making full and accurate records of consultations and contributing to programmes to monitor quality and outcomes, including registers for devices such as breast implants.</p><p> </p><p>The Government recommends that anyone considering accessing cosmetic interventions, chooses a registered health professional or someone who is registered with an accredited voluntary register (AVR). A number of AVRs for practitioners preforming cosmetic interventions are already established. Using a practitioner registered with an AVR provides assurance that the practitioner is appropriately qualified, registered and insured.</p><p> </p><p>On 13 September 2017 I laid new regulations in parliament to impose a duty on the Care Qualtiy Commission to rate and assess the performance of providers of surgical procedures for cosmetic purposes where the procedure requires intravenous sedation, general anaesthesia or the insertion of an implant.
