The Government\u2019s response to the Learning Disabilities Mortality Review Programme (LeDeR) report, published on 12 September 2018, identifies actions for the Department, as well as NHS England and other partners, to address the national recommendations in the LeDeR report.<\/p>

The Department and its partners continue to make progress towards implementing these actions, to improve support for people with learning disabilities across the health and care system, reduce health inequalities and improve health and wellbeing outcomes.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4008", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Gosport"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Caroline Dinenage"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-01-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-01-16T12:20:39.787Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-01-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Learning Disabilities Mortality Review Programme"} , "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 and Social Care, with reference to the Learning Disabilities Mortality Review report published by the University of Bristol, whether his Department is taking steps to address the recommendations of that report.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4638", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Slough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Tanmanjeet Singh Dhesi"} ], "uin" : "206447"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037778", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037778/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
Recent assessments have been undertaken of the health effects of long-term exposure to the air pollution mixture in the United Kingdom, but no separate assessments of the impact of the PM1 and PM0.1 components (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter smaller than 1 or 0.1 microns, respectively) of particulate air pollution have been produced.<\/p>
<\/p>
The reviews by the Health Effects Institute and the World Health Organization about the effects of different components of air pollution, including ultrafine particles (PM0.1), concluded that there is currently limited evidence on the effects on health of ultrafine particles. These reviews are available at the following link:<\/p>

It is difficult to attribute the relative impacts of each of these factors as the contribution varies year on year.<\/p> <\/p> Living in a cold home and being in fuel poverty represent a significant risk to health, wellbeing and inequalities. The joint Public Health England and University College London Institute of Health Equity report \u2018Local action on health inequalities: Fuel poverty and cold home-related health problems\u2019 reported that an estimated 21.5% of annual excess winter deaths are attributable to the coldest quarter of housing.
