No specific assessment has been made. However, we are aware that referrals for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) assessment have increased for both children and adult\u2019s diagnostic services in Cheshire West, the Weaver Vale locality provider. This position is reflected locally across Cheshire, regionally across the North West, and nationally.<\/p>
In Cheshire West, work is currently underway to improve the ADHD pathway for support for both children and adults within existing resources and with regard to waiting lists to ensure an effective prioritisation process is in place and people\u2019s support needs can be identified earlier.<\/p>
In Cheshire West, there is currently an average 32 weeks waiting time from referral to start of assessment for ADHD for children and young people, with further waits post-assessment.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4492", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Maria Caulfield"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Lewes"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Maria Caulfield"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-06-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-06-12T15:54:06.927Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-06-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Health Services"} , "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 recent assessment he has made of the adequacy of ADHD support services in (a) Weaver Vale (b) North West England and (c) England.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4667", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mike Amesbury"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Weaver Vale"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mike Amesbury"} ], "uin" : "187347"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1312108", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1312108/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Planning for the Future <\/em>White Paper sets out our intention to bring forward a quicker and simpler framework for assessing environmental implications which encourages opportunities for environmental enhancements to be identified and pursued early in the development process. The Environment Bill includes measures to make biodiversity net gain mandatory, requiring developers to ensure habitats for wildlife are enhanced.<\/p> Contributions from developers play an important role in delivering the infrastructure that new homes, and local economies, require. Local authorities can currently obtain these contributions by charging a Community Infrastructure Levy on new development, and by negotiating section 106 planning obligations with a developer. In 2018/19, local authorities negotiated over £150 million towards open space and the environment through section 106 planning obligations. The Planning for the Future<\/em> White Paper proposes to reform the current approach to developer contributions by creating a new, single system, the Infrastructure Levy, which local authorities will be able to use towards open space and environment. The consultation on Planning for the Future<\/em> closed on 29 October 2020, and we will be responding formally.<\/p> <\/p>"}
