Defra chairs the National Fly-Tipping Prevention Group (NFTPG), through which we work with a wide range of interested parties, including local authorities, to promote and disseminate good practice with regards to preventing fly-tipping. Together we have produced various guides on tackling fly-tipping and the roles and responsibilities of local authorities and others.<\/p>
<\/p>
More recently, we have been developing a fly-tipping toolkit with the NFTPG. So far, the group has published a guide on how councils and others can present robust cases to court and a new framework which sets out how they can set up and run effective local partnerships to prevent fly-tipping. These, and other materials, are available at: https://www.keepbritaintidy.org/national-fly-tipping-prevention-group<\/a>.<\/p> <\/p>
In addition to this, Defra has provided £1.2 million in grant funding to help more than 30 councils implement projects aimed at tackling fly-tipping. Case studies from round one have been made available at the link above so other councils can learn about those interventions which were most successful. We intend to launch another grant opportunity for councils later this year.<\/p>"}

It is not NHS England\u2019s role to develop clinical guidelines; however, should a new evidence base arise, clinical policy may be updated by relevant organisations, for example, National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines. NHS England would then consider the development of care pathways. Implementing treatments that are in line with NICE guidelines helps to improve patient safety and reduce the risk of harm across the health system.<\/p>
NICE reviewed its guidelines portfolio in May 2023 to identify topics that it thinks will add the most value to the health and care system. As a result, NICE identified several topics, including the guidance on haemochromatosis, where work will stop for the time being to allow focus on key priorities.<\/p>
These topics will be reconsidered by NICE\u2019s new Prioritisation Board that is being established by its Chief Medical Officer, and as work to establish the prioritisation board progresses during this year, more information on timescales will become available. NICE will make further information available on its website once topics have been reprioritised.<\/p>"}
