MP3 Players

18. Bob Russell: To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will commission research into the effects on hearing of the use of personal MP3 players. [203377]

Mr. Ivan Lewis: It is already widely understood that playing personal audio equipment too loud can damage your hearing.

The European Commission has asked the scientific committee on emerging and newly identified health risks for an opinion on the potential health risk of exposure to noise from personal music players and mobile phones which include a music playing function.

Water

19. Gordon Banks: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what guidance his Department issues on the recommended daily intake of water. [203378]

Ann Keen: In temperate climates, such as the UK, the UK Government advise that six to eight glasses (about 1.2 litres) of water, or other fluids, should be consumed every day to prevent dehydration. This amount should be increased when the weather is warm or when exercising.

GP-led Health Centres

20. Simon Hughes: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what consultation is being carried out at the local level on the introduction of GP-led health centres. [203379]

Mr. Bradshaw: Primary care trusts are currently talking to local people and NHS staff about how new GP-led health centre services are best provided to meet local needs. The precise nature of each consultation in each area will vary depending on local circumstances.

Pharmacy White Paper

21. Mr. Harper: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what representations he has received on the Pharmacy White Paper. [203380]


6 May 2008 : Column 747W

Mr. Bradshaw: We have received broad support for our proposals set out in “Pharmacy in England, Building on strengths, delivering the future” from the national health service, pharmaceutical and medical representatives. Dispensing doctors have expressed some concerns about aspects of our proposals. We are currently holding public events to hear views on the White Paper generally, and on some key proposals for structural change on which there will be full consultation later this summer.

Preventive Health Check-ups

22. Mr. Stewart Jackson: To ask the Secretary of State for Health when he expects to implement the preventive health check-up policy announced by the Prime Minister. [203381]

Ann Keen: The Prime Minister announced in January the Government’s intention to develop a programme to assess people’s risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes and kidney disease. “Putting Prevention First”, published on 1 April 2008, showed that a vascular checks programme for those aged between 40 and 74 would be clinically and cost-effective. We are now working with stakeholders to design the programme for delivery from 2009-10.

Health Inequalities

Ms Buck: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what recent progress his Department has made in tackling health inequalities. [203375]

Mr. Ivan Lewis: In March 2008, the Department published “Tackling Health Inequalities: 2007 Status Report on the Programme for Action”, which showed progress against a range of cross-government health inequalities measures.

Acute Beds

Mr. Lansley: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many delayed transfers of care from acute beds there have been in each NHS trust in the last 12 months; and what proportion of all transfers of care from acute beds this represents in each trust. [202544]

Mr. Ivan Lewis: The information requested is shown in the following table.
