The discretionary payments scheme, part of the England Infected Blood Support Scheme administered by NHS Business Services Authority (NHS BSA), and the criteria under which these payments are made is currently being reviewed.<\/p>
<\/p>
As was required under the former infected blood payment schemes, the criteria for some discretionary payments may be linked to an individual\u2019s income. One way a beneficiary could demonstrate their income is through the submission of bank statements, although NHS BSA is considering with beneficiaries other possible options as part of the review process.<\/p>
<\/p>
NHS BSA will try to keep additional information requests to support claims to a minimum.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4065", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Thurrock"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jackie Doyle-Price"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-01-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-01-08T17:11:39.423Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-12-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Blood: Contamination"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what steps are being taken to remove the need for bank statements to be submitted in support of discretionary grant applications with the England Infected Blood Support Scheme.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1533", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Diana Johnson"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Kingston upon Hull North"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Diana Johnson"} ], "uin" : "120553"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/793891", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/793891/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The discretionary payments for the remainder of this financial year will not change and there will be no reductions. NHS Business Services Authority is carrying out a review of the discretionary payment arrangements and the new system will be launched in April 2018. The new discretionary payment scheme will be a fairer, more transparent and flexible system that will direct funding to those most in need of financial support. As under the existing arrangements this discretionary support will be open to all beneficiaries, including bereaved partners of the infected and their families. There will also be an increase in the overall level of discretionary funding for 2018-19 as announced in September 2017.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4065", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Thurrock"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jackie Doyle-Price"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-11-30", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-11-30T12:40:19.037Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-11-22", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Blood: Contamination"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, with reference to the oral Question of the hon.
