The government launched a £1.5 million grant fund in the private sector to support people to return to work. Our grant fund is enabling charities and other organisations to launch projects for people who are currently out of work due to caring responsibilities and want to return to permanent employment. Home-Start have previously applied for this GEO funding.<\/p>

<\/p>

We have recently announced further funding to support those with additional barriers to participating in the labour market \u2013 including people who speak little English, people with disabilities, and those who are homeless or have been victims of domestic abuse. GEO is scoping how best to deliver this and will engage closely with HMT in advance of the next spending review to decide whether and how further funding should be allocated to helping people return to work.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4399", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Victoria Atkins"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Louth and Horncastle"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Victoria Atkins"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-01-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-01-15T17:39:41.67Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "31"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Women and Equalities"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Women and Equalities"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-01-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Employment"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what representations she has received on the work of (a) Home Start and (b) other charities providing support for young families and carers; and if she will discuss with the Chancellor of the Exchequer the provision of additional funding for those charities to enable more help to be given to people returning to work.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4131", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jim Shannon"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Strangford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jim Shannon"} ], "uin" : "206356"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037013", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Exiting the European Union "} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037013/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The EU and the UK are committed to an arrangement with no tariffs between the UK and the EU. However, in the event of the UK leaving the EU without a deal, goods traded between the UK and the EU will be subject to the same requirements as third country goods, including the payment of duty. For UK exports to the EU, the EU will require payment of customs duty at the rate under the EU\u2019s Common Customs Tariff (CCT). Full details are available on the EU\u2019s website (http://madb.europa.eu/madb/euTariffs.htm<\/a>).<\/p>

The current third country duty on most types of motor vehicles is 10%, therefore the tariffs would likely be £1,500 for (a) and £2,500 for (b). However, more information is needed on the vehicles in question to provide an exact answer. Furthermore, the EU may change these rates between now and March 2019.<\/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 sure the lives of those with dementia are transformed 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. Reducing health inequalities is an important priority and one that applies to all themes of the 2020 Challenge on Dementia.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government also remains strongly committed to supporting research into dementia and the United Kingdom research community is playing a significant role in the global effort to find a cure or a major disease-modifying treatment by 2025.<\/p>

<\/p>

The NHS Long Term Plan commits to better support for people with dementia through a more active focus on supporting people in the community and ongoing close work with the voluntary sector, e.g. supporting Alzheimer\u2019s Society\u2019s dementia connect programme.<\/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.

The Government expects passengers to be made fully aware of costs when booking a flight. Through the current Aviation 2050 consultation the Department is considering a new Passenger Charter that will include standards for booking information, and clear terms and conditions. The Civil Aviation Authority is engaging with industry to ensure that their terms and conditions are transparent, prominent and fair. Any recommendations resulting from this work may be adopted as part of the Charter.<\/p>

The United Kingdom National Screening Committee (UK NSC) has not reviewed the evidence for an epigenetics-based test within the cervical screening programme.<\/p>

<\/p>

It is important that any screening test introduced into a screening programme is based on robust published peer reviewed evidence demonstrating more good than harm. A change to the main screen test such as using epigenetics-based testing would be considered as a major programme modification to the cervical screening programme.<\/p>

<\/p>

Submissions to the UK NSC to consider a programme modification can be submitted throughout the year with more information available at the following link:<\/p>

The Department has not had any discussions with pharmaceutical companies to reduce the cost of liothyronine tablets.<\/p>

<\/p>

Liothyronine is an unbranded generic medicine. The Department encourages competition between suppliers of unbranded generic medicines to keep prices down. This generally works well and has led to some of the lowest prices in Europe.<\/p>

<\/p>

Concerns about anti-competitive behaviour are a matter for the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to investigate. Liothyronine, marketed by Concordia, is currently the subject of an investigation by the CMA, which has provisionally found that Concordia abused its dominant position to overcharge the National Health Service by millions for liothyronine tablets. A provisional decision does not necessarily lead to an infringement decision. Where companies have breached competition law, the Department will seek damages and invest that money back into the NHS.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Department also has its own powers to limit prices of unbranded generic medicines and will consult early in 2019 with the relevant industry bodies on implementation of those powers.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4067", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Brine"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Winchester"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Steve Brine"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-01-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-01-15T16:03:08.127Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-01-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Liothyronine: Prices"} , "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 discussions he has had with pharmaceutical companies on reducing the cost of the drug liothyronine.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4131", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jim Shannon"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Strangford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jim Shannon"} ], "uin" : "205921"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037087", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037087/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations (VCDR) requires persons enjoying diplomatic privileges and immunities to respect the laws and regulations of the receiving State. The VCDR also recognises that the purpose of privileges and immunities is not to benefit individuals but to ensure the efficient performance of the functions of diplomatic missions. The UK Government takes a firm line with diplomats or their family members who are alleged to have committed serious offences. The police and other law enforcement agencies pursue all allegations. In the most serious cases, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office asks for the diplomat or family member in question to be withdrawn from the UK unless he or she cooperates with any investigation under a waiver of immunity granted by their government or international organisation.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/343", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Alan Duncan"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Rutland and Melton"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Sir Alan Duncan"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-01-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-01-15T16:56:12.057Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-01-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Diplomatic Immunity"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to make people with diplomatic immunity accountable if they are accused of committing serious crimes in the UK.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4131", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jim Shannon"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Strangford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jim Shannon"} ], "uin" : "205922"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037092", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Cabinet Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1037092/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Government works actively to support trade and reduce barriers in all three countries, including through our overseas network and HM Trade Commissioners, through ministerial visits and bilateral working groups, and through the broad support this Department provides both to UK companies exporting to these countries and to those overseas companies wishing to invest in the UK. This work is intensifying as we leave the EU.<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition, the Government is preparing for an ambitious programme of trade negotiations and enhanced market access, including potentially opening formal negotiations for new free trade agreements with the United States and Australia.
