Five non-departmental public bodies (Care Quality Commission, Health Protection Agency, Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority, Monitor and the NHS Commissioning Board) could provide the information requested only at disproportionate cost.

Telephone Services

Richard Burden: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many (a) 0800, (b) 0808, (c) 0844, (d) 0845 and (e) 0870 telephone numbers for the public are in use by (i) his Department and (ii) the agencies for which he is responsible. [147820]

Dr Poulter: The Department of Health Communications Directorate owns 135 0800 telephone numbers, a single 0808 telephone number and four 0845 telephone numbers for use by the public. There are no 0844 or 0870 numbers. Not all of the numbers owned by the Department are in current use.

The Department's Executive Agency, the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency, has one 0808 number, for use by the public.

The Department has a number of arm's length bodies and national programmes e.g. NHS Employers. Information about telephone services for these bodies is not held centrally and cannot be provided except at disproportionate cost.

(1) Not in existence. (2) NHS CB: The NHS CB became an Executive Non-Departmental Public Body on 1 October 2012 and will not be effectively operational until 1 April 2013. The NHS CB is undertaking a significant programme of staff transition and recruitment, and during this financial year most staff have been working on a secondment or interim basis. Therefore it is not possible to give accurate figures for 2012-13. (3) HTA: Information unavailable before 2009. When the HTA was originally set up, it did not have its own human resource systems and all its HR support was provided by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority. HTA HR systems were introduced in 2009.

Catherine McKinnell: To ask the Secretary of State for Health when he intends to publish his Department's summary report of responses to its consultation on standardised packaging of tobacco products; and when he intends to bring forward any policy proposals arising from this consultation.

Anna Soubry: The Department has received many thousands of responses to the consultation on standardised packaging of tobacco products. A summary report of consultation responses will be published in due course.

The Government have an open mind on this issue and any decisions to take further policy action will be taken only after full consideration is given to the consultation responses, evidence and other relevant information.

Ian Paisley: To ask the Secretary of State for Health pursuant to the answer of 13 March 2013, Official Report, column 249W, on tobacco: retail trade, whether his Department has estimated the potential cost of payments to tobacco companies to purchase the associated intellectual property and branding should standardised packaging for all tobacco products be introduced. [148722]

Anna Soubry: I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave him on 13 March 2013, Official Report, columns 249-50W.

When a defendant has been found guilty of two or more offences it is the offence for which the heaviest penalty is imposed. Where the same disposal is imposed for two or more offences, the offence selected is the offence for which the statutory maximum penalty is the most severe. (3) Every effort is made to ensure that the figures presented are accurate and complete. However, it is important to note that these data have been extracted from large administrative data systems generated by the courts and police forces. As a consequence, care should be taken to ensure data collection processes and their inevitable limitations are taken into account when those data are used.
