Fit for Work, previously known as the Health and Work Service, is comprised of two elements:<\/p>

<\/p>

i) Free, expert and impartial work-related health advice via a website and telephone line<\/p>

ii) Referral to an occupational health professional for employees who are, or are expected to, undergo a period of sickness absence from work lasting four weeks or more. The Fit for Work occupational health professional will identify obstacles preventing the employee from returning to work and produce a Return to Work Plan tailored to the employee\u2019s needs.<\/p>

<\/p>

The advice element of Fit for Work went live in England and Wales in December 2014.<\/p>

<\/p>

From January 2015 some GPs in the Sheffield area had the opportunity to try the assessment service. This will be expanded across the country over a period of months from spring, building on this experience and learning.<\/p>

<\/p>

Fit for Work Scotland is being delivered by the Scottish Government; the advice element went live in December 2014 and the referral element went live, initially in three NHS Board areas, in January 2015. As with England and Wales, this will be expanded across Scotland from the spring.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3893", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Freud"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Freud"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2015-02-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2015-02-04T15:06:55.97Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "29"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Work and Pensions"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Work and Pensions"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2015-01-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Occupational Health"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty\u2019s Government what progress has been made with the establishment of the Health at Work Assessment and Advisory Service.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/908", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Luce"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Luce"} ], "uin" : "HL4541"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/176633", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/176633/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

All police officers receive training on a range of mental health and related issues, including awareness of autism spectrum disorders, as part of the existing national police curriculum.<\/p>

The College of Policing provides national training and learning resources, and is undertaking a wide-ranging review of the guidance and training available to police officers in relation to the identification of vulnerabilities, including mental ill-health, learning disabilities and autism spectrum disorders. All police officers will be expected to participate in training to recognise autism spectrum disorders once the refreshed training programme is available, which is expected to be at the end of 2015.<\/p>

As the police training curriculum is refreshed, the College will consult the National Autistic Society and other national charities on its content as it relates to mental ill-health, learning disability and autism spectrum disorders.<\/p>

In addition to the national work of the College, last year the Government commissioned Her Majesty\u2019s Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) to conduct a thematic inspection into the treatment of vulnerable people in police custody. The inspectorate is due to publish its report in March and this will inform the College of Policing\u2019s review of training as well as highlighting other areas where improvements can be made.<\/p>

Action is taking place at local force level also. Many have developed their own tailored training programmes to support their officers and staff in the identification and appropriate handling of people experiencing mental ill-health or who have learning disabilities or autism spectrum disorders. Hampshire Police, for example, have received training from and continue to work closely with the Hampshire Autistic Society.<\/p>

Most immigration offenders are removed under administrative or illegal entry powers from the UK and are not deported. Deportations are a specific subset of removals which are enforced either following a criminal conviction or when it is judged that a person\u2019s removal from the UK is conducive to the public good.

The question has been taken as meaning all enforced removals.

The table below shows the number of Romanian and Bulgarian nationals as of 30 January 2015 awaiting either removal or deportation as a combined total, with removal directions scheduled and set for removal.

Removal Directions set<\/p>

Romania 20<\/p>

The Electoral Commission\u2019s (EC) assessment of the completeness and accuracy of the last electoral registers published under the previous household system is published in the quality of the 2014 electoral registers in Great Britian report. I have placed a copy in the library.<\/p>

The Commission will next report on the completeness and accuracy of the electoral registers following the end of the transition to IER, which will either be in December 2015 or December 2016.<\/p>

The Commission\u2019s next report on progress in the transition to Individual Electoral Registration (IER) will be published later this month. This will focus on the electoral registers as at 1 December 2014 in England and Wales.<\/p>

Almost nine in ten electors were automatically transferred to the new IER register without having to do anything. I have placed the Government's assessment of this process in the library.<\/p>
