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>"}

Dementia remains a key priority for the Government. We will implement the Government\u2019s Challenge on Dementia 2020 (published in February 2015) in full to make this the best country to live in with dementia by 2020.<\/p>
<\/p>
Working with our partners, we continue to make progress against the ambitions set out in the March 2016 Implementation Plan which details how the commitments in the Challenge, across the four core themes of risk reduction, health and care, awareness and social action, and research will be met.<\/p>
<\/p>
In addition, the Department is working with the adult social care sector to implement Quality Matters \u2013 a shared commitment to take action to achieve high quality adult social care for service users, families, carers and everyone working in the sector. Under the Care Act 2014, local authorities are required to shape their whole local markets to ensure that they are sustainable, diverse and offer high quality care and support for people in their local area.<\/p>"}

The Targeted Enhanced Recruitment Scheme is a national incentive scheme which funds a £20,000 salary supplement to attract GP trainees to work in areas of the country where GP training places have been unfilled for a number of years. 144 places were available on the scheme in England in 2017, 11 of which were in Nottinghamshire.<\/p>"}

The current new-born screening programme in the United Kingdom screens for nine rare but serious conditions including phenylketonuria (PKU). To recognise rare conditions such as PKU, doctors and other healthcare professionals are expected to ensure their clinical knowledge remains up-to-date and to identify their ongoing learning needs as part of their continuing professional development. This activity should include taking account of new research and developments in guidance in relevant specialty areas, such as those produced by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence or the Royal Colleges, to ensure that they can continue to provide high quality care to all patients.<\/p>
<\/p>
Steps to increase the awareness of rare diseases such as PKU are being taken through the implementation of the UK Strategy for Rare Diseases. The Strategy includes commitments to improving the lives of all patients affected by rare diseases including in areas of identification/ prevention and diagnosis and early intervention. The Government is committed to implementing the Strategy\u2019s commitments and in January 2018, the Department and NHS England published Implementation Plans setting out their actions for England.<\/p>"}
