Psychiatry

John Battle: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what resources the Government provided to support (a) cognitive behavioural and (b) other talking therapies in the latest period for which figures are available; and if he will make a statement. [220707]

Mr. Ivan Lewis: The Government are investing funding, rising to £173 million by 2011, for the provision of the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence evidence-based psychological therapies. This includes investment in cognitive behavioural therapy as well as other interventions.

Queen's Hospital Romford: Accident and Emergency Departments

James Brokenshire: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what the performance of the Queen’s Hospital, Romford was in processing accident and emergency admissions within four hours in each month since January 2007. [205371]

Mr. Bradshaw: Information is not collected centrally in the format requested. Information on the percentage of patients attending accident and emergency (A&E) departments who were seen, diagnosed and treated within four hours of their arrival is collected at national health service trust level and published quarterly. This can be compared against the operational standard for A&E waits, which is set at 98 per cent. of patients seen, diagnosed and treated within four hours. The following table shows the available information for Barking, Havering and Redbridge Hospitals NHS Trust, which manages services at Queen’s hospital, Romford.

I understand that the trust has recently achieved and is looking to sustain the required 98 per cent. standard.

Percentage of patients who spent less than four hours in A&E departments, minor injury units and walk-in centres from arrival to admission, transfer or discharge at Barking, Havering and Redbridge Hospitals NHS Trust, including activity at partner primary care trusts

Notes:
1. The Department collects A&E data at trust rather than hospital level. The table shows the data for the relevant trust. The Queen’s hospital, Romford is provided by Barking, Havering and Redbridge Hospitals NHS Trust.
2. From Q1 2007-08, the data includes services provided by the independent sector.

Radiography: Education

Mr. Stephen O'Brien: To ask the Secretary of State for Health which universities have offered NHS-funded radiography degree courses in each of the last five years; how many places each had; how many places were filled; what the ratio of places to applications was at each university; how many students at each institution failed to complete the course; what reduced rate student loan was available and how many students took it; how many students studied radiography to degree level without taking the NHS funded place; and what the terms and conditions of the NHS-funded place are. [221649]

Ann Keen: A list of universities that have offered NHS-funded radiography degree courses in each of the

last five years and the number of students placed at each institution and numbers who failed to complete the course are shown in the table. Information on the number of places each university had available: the ratio of places to applications and the number of students who studied radiography to degree level without taking the NHS funded place is not held centrally.

The amount of reduced rate loan available in each of the last five years is shown in the table. Information on the number of students, who received it, is not available.

The eighth edition of the NHS Bursary Scheme outlines the terms and conditions of support arrangements for students in academic years starting on or after 1 September 2007 and before 1 September 2008. A copy has been placed in the Library.
