To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many a) deaths and b) injuries have been caused by illegal gas works in i) England and ii) London in each year since 2020.
Flammable gas incidents resulting in death and injury are reported to the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) under Regulation 11(1) of the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 2013 (RIDDOR). RIDDOR Reports notify HSE of deaths and major injuries arising in connection with flammable gas, which are recorded as fatalities and non-fatalities and the breakdown is published at ridgas.xlsx.
The breakdown for region and the root cause of each incident is not held.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, with reference to the Answer of 23 October to Question 201077 on Electric Scooters, if he will make an assessment of the potential impact of mandatory e-step scooter training on the (a) experience of e-step scooter users and (b) number of injuries...

The Department will consult in due course on options for e-scooter regulations, including the requirement for training before an e-scooter can be ridden on public roads. The evidence gathered will inform an assessment of the benefit of introducing a mandatory training requirement, as is the case currently for motor vehicles, rather than a recommendation of training, as is currently the case for pedal and e-cycles.
Separately, the Department is committed to using the trials extension to May 2026 to continue evaluating the usage and safety impacts of e-scooters.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how much funding his Department allocated for the treatment of people who have been injured due to adverse effects of covid-19 vaccines in each year since 2020.
There is no specific budget allocated to NHS England for the treatment of individuals who may have been injured following an adverse reaction to a COVID-19 vaccine. Treatment will be managed by National Health Service local specialist services, with funding provided in the usual way through general allocations.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department is taking to protect police officers from assault or injury.
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department is taking to protect police officers from assault or injury.
Any attack on a police officer is completely unacceptable. Assaults specifically against emergency workers, including the police, are punishable by up to 12 months in prison and could be charged as common assault. The Government’s recent consultation seeking views on doubling the maximum sentence for assaults on emergency workers shows our commitment to ensuring these attacks are not tolerated. We continue to work with the Ministry of Justice to ensure that assaults on police officers are handled with appropriate severity by the whole criminal justice system.
We have also accelerated our work to introduce a Police Covenant, recognising the service and sacrifice of those who work, or have worked, in policing and to deliver the practical support they need. The key areas of focus will be physical protection, health and wellbeing and support for families. We expect to publish our response to the recent public consultation shortly.
The Government is clear that police officers should have the best possible protection when facing the physical violence that is sometimes directed against them. Decisions on the purchase and supply of protective equipment, including Body Armour, are primarily for Chief Officers.
We also welcome the publication of the National Police Chiefs’ Council’s Officer and Staff Safety Review. We will continue to work closely with policing partners to consider the recommendations in the report.

Our injured personnel make huge sacrifices in service of their country and it is only right that we do all we can to help them in their recovery.
I am therefore delighted that the Defence Recovery Capability, supported by charities such as Help for Heroes and the Royal British Legion, has now achieved full operating capability, which I formally declared at an event at Wellington Barracks on 11 June 2013. All injured and wounded personnel who come under the Defence Recovery Capability will receive a personalised recovery plan covering all aspects of their recovery including medical care, welfare, housing, re-skilling, education, work placements, and employment issues
and opportunities. I also laid a written ministerial statement in the House on 11 June 2013, Official Report, columns 3-4WS, which gives further details.

Army detection dogs provide an important and valuable service, working with their handlers, to search for items and substances such as, arms, ammunition, drugs and explosives and can also be trained to track or detect human scent. Detection dogs have played a significant role in counter-improvised explosive device work during Operations Herrick and Telic, reducing human injuries and fatalities.
Information on the number of detection dogs injured while on duty over the last five years is not held centrally and could be provided only at disproportionate cost. However, since May 2011 we have received five reports of military detection dogs being significantly injured in the course of their duties.

The Department does not collect the cost to the national health service of treating firework-related injuries. There were 164 finished admission episodes of people admitted to hospital with an external cause code of W39—Discharge of Firework—in 2011-121. This figure is not a count of all admissions for firework-related injuries, only those with this specific external cause recorded.
Note: A finished admission episode (FAE) is the first period of inpatient care under one consultant within one healthcare provider. FAEs are counted against the year in which the admission episode finishes. Admissions do not represent the number of inpatients, as a person may have more than one admission within the year.
