According to Government of Zimbabwe figures, the Zimbabwean average national cereal production for 2013-17 was 1,356,000 tonnes. In 2017 2,535,000 tonnes were produced, in an unusually good agricultural season. In 2018, this dropped to 1,937,000 tonnes. The current season has been negatively affected by economic crisis and poor rainfall.

Through the Culture Health Check survey, UK Sport are monitoring National Governing Bodies\u2019 (NGBs) approach to culture and athlete welfare in the high performance system. NGBs are required to develop culture action plans based on their survey results, and UK Sport hold them to account for delivering these plans.<\/p>
As I stated in my speech on 13th February to UK Sport, it is important that our top athletes are treated fairly and with respect. I support UK Sport\u2019s efforts to continue to make our elite sport system stronger.

Leaving the European Union with a deal remains the Government\u2019s top priority. However, as a responsible Government we must plan for every possible outcome, including \u2018no deal\u2019. The Department has published guidance to industry and the health and care system to allow them to make informed plans and preparations. This is available on GOV.UK.<\/p>
The Department has put in place a multi-layered approach to minimise any disruption to the supply of medicines. In August 2018, the Department wrote to all pharmaceutical companies that supply prescription-only and pharmacy medicines to the United Kingdom that come from or via the EU/European Economic Area asking them to ensure a minimum of six weeks\u2019 additional supply in the UK, over and above existing business-as-usual buffer stocks, by 29 March 2019.<\/p>
The response from industry has been hugely positive. The vast majority of companies have confirmed stockpiling plans are in place and medicines continue to arrive to deliver on these plans. We are confident that if everyone does what they need to do, the supply of medicines and other medical products will be uninterrupted.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1585", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Stephen Hammond"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wimbledon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Stephen Hammond"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-08T11:13:18.01Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-02-28", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "NHS: Drugs"} , "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, what assessment his Department has made of the merits of stockpiling drugs so that patients can continue to have access to those drugs in the event that the UK leaves the EU without a deal.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4669", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Damien Moore"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Southport"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Damien Moore"} ], "uin" : "227166"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1079320", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1079320/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
