NIHR funding for research projects into hearing loss was £8.3 million over the last five years.<\/p>
<\/p>
NIHR funded infrastructure supports research into hearing loss. Three NIHR Biomedical Research Centres have research themes on hearing health, conducting research into the identification, understanding, prevention, and interventions to alleviate hearing loss across the life course. NIHR funded infrastructure is supporting studies into identification and treatment of hearing loss in babies and children.<\/p>
<\/p>
It is not possible to further disaggregate this spend or support by age group.<\/p>"}

The Government issues a 30-day visa to all non-EEA nationals coming from overseas to stay in the UK for more than six months to enable them to collect their biometric residence permit from the Post Office, following their arrival in the UK. When a family reunion application is made, individuals can specify within a 90-day window when they would like the visa to be valid from. This is to take account of their need to make the necessary travel arrangements. The Government considers that the existing time periods for family reunion visas remain appropriate and we have no plans to review it.<\/p>"}

The Department for Work and Pensions is working in partnership with the Home Office to improve processes for refugees claiming benefits. In order to achieve this aim we have set up the Post Grant Appointment Scheme (PGAS).<\/p>

The scheme involves contacting persons at the point when they are granted refugee status to see if they wish to apply for benefits and require assistance to do so. If they say they do, an appointment at a local DWP office is arranged for them.<\/p>"}

The NHS Long Term Plan commits to \u201ctest four-week waiting times for adult and older adult community mental health teams, with selected local areas\u201d.<\/p>
<\/p>
The \u2018Clinically-led Review of NHS Access Standards\u2019 Interim Report, published in March 2019, states that NHS England will test four-week waiting times for adult and older adult community mental health teams with selected local areas. As part of this work, the report states that NHS England will \u201cconsider the interfaces with specialist community mental health services, particularly where there is an existing evidence base for rapid direct access, such as adult eating disorder services, or early intervention in psychosis services, for which there is already a national access and waiting time standard in place.\u201d<\/p>
<\/p>
The interim report sets out the initial proposals for testing changes to access standards in mental health services, cancer care, elective care and urgent and emergency care. The proposals will be field tested at a selection of pilot sites across England, before wider implementation. The information gathered through field testing and engagement will inform final recommendations from this Review, and ahead of full implementation beginning spring 2020.<\/p>"}
