Monday 17th April 2023

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent assessment he has made of the security of NHS data held by Palantir Technologies.

Motor Vehicles: Exhaust Emissions
Asked by: Sarah Olney (Liberal Democrat - Richmond Park)
Tuesday 18th April 2023

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether his Department has taken recent steps to prevent vehicle manufacturers from selling vehicles that contain emissions defeat devices.

Answered by Richard Holden - Opposition Whip (Commons)

The Government is committed to reducing air pollution from all forms of transport, which has significantly reduced since 2010. The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency’s (DVSA’s) Market Surveillance Unit conducts an annual emissions-testing programme to test vehicle emissions in the real world. Where testing identifies non-compliant emissions the DVSA works with the manufacturer to implement improvement plans.

In 2018, the Government strengthened restrictions against the use of illegal emissions technology by passing legislation making it an offence for manufacturers to place motor vehicles on the market which contain prohibited defeat systems. The Government will also bring forward legislation to enable it to require vehicles to be recalled on environmental grounds, as well as exploring other means of strengthening enforcement.

Mobile Phones: Fees and Charges
Asked by: Sarah Olney (Liberal Democrat - Richmond Park)
Wednesday 19th April 2023

Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, if she will take steps to restrict the extent to which phone companies may increase tariffs in the context of the increased cost of living.

Answered by Julia Lopez

The Government recognises that this is a difficult time for families across the country who are struggling to pay their bills as a result of the global rise in the cost of living.

The sector remains highly competitive and UK consumers can currently access some of the lowest mobile pricing in Western Europe. However, it is important that contracts are transparent and consumers understand what they are signing when taking out a new communications service. Ofcom recently announced it has begun a programme of work to consider whether contracts are sufficiently transparent. I look forward to their findings.

In June 2022, leaders from broadband and mobile operators agreed on a set of industry commitments to help people through the global rise in the cost of living. These include manageable payment plans and allowing households, who may be mid-contract but struggling with their bills, to switch to cheaper packages without penalty.

Employment Tribunals Service
Asked by: Sarah Olney (Liberal Democrat - Richmond Park)
Wednesday 19th April 2023

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, with reference to the Answer of 21 January 2020 to Question 3164 on Employment Tribunals Service: Fines, how many (a) warning notices and (b) financial penalty notices were issued to respondent employers under section 150 of the Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Act 2015 for failure to pay an employment tribunal award in each year since 2016-17.

Answered by Kevin Hollinrake - Shadow Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities

Workers should receive the money they are owed. We are committed to ensuring this happens and that they are protected from exploitation.

As stated in the answer to HL6685, data held on Employment Tribunal Penalties is derived from a live case management system used for internal purposes which has not been subject to sufficient validation that would be required for us to release this to Parliament at this time.

We will consider what data we may be able to publish on this subject in the future.

Mental Health Services
Asked by: Sarah Olney (Liberal Democrat - Richmond Park)
Wednesday 19th April 2023

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will take steps to publish a 10-year mental health plan instead of the major conditions strategy.

Answered by Maria Caulfield

The Government announced on 24 January 2023 that it will publish a Major Conditions Strategy. Increasing multimorbidity and complexity of conditions means it is important to ensure strategies are joined up, with care and support centred around people. A joined up Major Conditions Strategy instead of a standalone mental health strategy will ensure that mental ill health is also considered alongside other physical health conditions, meaning the interactions between them are reflected in the resulting plans. We know that many of the risk factors that contribute to mental ill-health are cross-society in nature, and we will therefore be working closely with departments across Government.

We are grateful to everyone who responded to our mental health call for evidence. The responses we received have been processed and will feed into the development of mental health and suicide prevention policies we include in the Major Conditions Strategy and the Suicide Prevention Strategy.

Care Homes
Asked by: Sarah Olney (Liberal Democrat - Richmond Park)
Thursday 20th April 2023

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many (a) care homes and (b) residents of care homes there were in April 2020.

Answered by Helen Whately - Shadow Secretary of State for Work and Pensions

As of 1 April 2020, there were 15,517 active care home locations registered with Care Quality Commission. Whilst the Department does not have an exact number of residents in care homes in April 2020, we would expect the number to be similar to the Office for National Statistics estimate of 391,927 care home residents in England in 2019/20.
