answer text <p>The Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) Strategy set out an ambitious programme to make tackling VAWG everybody’s business.</p><p>Over this spending review period, we are providing £100 million of dedicated funding to tackle VAWG. VAWG services are mainly commissioned at a local level by Police and Crime Commissioners, local authorities and health commissioners. The Government’s VAWG National Statement of Expectations encourages such decisions to be taken at a local level and driven by local need.</p><p>We created a £17 million 3-year VAWG Service Transformation Fund, which is funding projects across 41 areas in England and Wales to embed local best practice and ensure that early intervention and prevention, not crisis response, is the norm. Details of the funding are available at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/violence-against-women-and-girls-service-transformation-fund-successful-bids-2017-to-2020</p><p>Through the Police Transformation Fund we are spending £5.8 million to support innovative projects to tackle domestic abuse.

We will announce successful bids shortly.</p><p>The Home Office also supports the national VAWG Helplines and recently committed funding of up to £1.1m per annum for these services until 2021.</p>

answer text <p>We are making ambitious reforms to education, as set out in the ‘Education and Employment Strategy’ published in May. This means that, from next April, prison governors will have direct control of their education budgets, will decide the curriculum and will have chosen the provider(s) of their education, promoting learning that best meets the needs of their prisoners.</p><p> </p><p>Alongside the Prison Education Framework, we have launched a Prison Education Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS), with over 170 education providers offering a huge range of learning and skills. It is through the DPS that prisons will secure Information, Advice and Guidance which enables prisoners to make informed choices about their education and future employment options.</p> more like this

answer text <p>​Within higher education, we have already made a number of changes to support part-time and mature part-time learners. This academic year, for example, part-time students are, for the first time ever, able to access full-time equivalent maintenance loans.</p><p>As stated in the government response to the consultation on part-time maintenance loans, we would like to extend these new loans to distance learning courses, but we must maintain confidence in the student finance system and ensure that adequate controls are in place to prevent the misuse of public funds. The department will extend these loans to distance learners only if robust controls are put in place to manage the risks associated with that mode of study. The department is currently considering those controls, and a final decision regarding whether it is feasible to extend maintenance loans to distance learners will be made once this scrutiny is completed.</p><p>Beyond student finance, the National Retraining Scheme is an ambitious, far-reaching programme to drive adult learning and retraining, in order to respond to changes in the economy and support people to progress in work, redirect their careers and secure the higher-paid, higher-skilled jobs of the future, focusing on those individuals that need it most.</p><p>To inform the design of the scheme, the Flexible Learning Fund is supporting 31 pilot projects across England with a total value of £11.4 million. The projects are designing and testing innovative, flexible learning that is easy to access. The pilots are aimed at adults who are working, or who are returning to work, with either low or intermediate skills. A range of delivery methods are being tested; most of the projects will make use of on-line technologies to a degree, as well as ‘blended learning’ that combines online and face-to-face learning.</p><p>​We know that technology can play a really important role in making learning more flexible and adaptive, as well as breaking down the barrier of distance. It is important that we take advantage of these developments as part of the scheme.</p>

answer text <p>Nationally, the number of dentists remain high. The latest data published in NHS Digital’s annual report on 30 August 2018 shows that 24,308 dentists delivered National Health Service dental services in 2017/18, 30 more than in 2016-17. The data is available at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/publications/statistical/nhs-dental-statistics/2017-18-annual-report" target="_blank">https://digital.nhs.uk/data-and-information/publications/statistical/nhs-dental-statistics/2017-18-annual-report</a></p><p> </p><p>We are aware that the same figures show there has been a small fall in the total numbers of dentists working on NHS contracts. NHS England commissions primary care dental services and is responsible for ensuring there are sufficient dental services to meet local need. NHS England is closely monitoring any local difficulties in recruitment and retention and over the summer held a workshop with various dental stakeholders to identify the causes and potential actions.</p>
