Mr. Paul Marsden: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if he will list the schools in Shrewsbury and Atcham
that have received new computer suites since 1 May 1997; and if he will make a statement. [160509]
Mr. Wills: [holding answer 9 May 2001]: The Department does not hold information on the number of new computer suites in schools.
However, since 1998 the average number of pupils per computer in primary and secondary schools in England has improved from 17.6: 1
to 12.6: 1, and from 8.7: 1 to 7.9: 1, respectively. Shropshire LEA estimates that £663,770 of national grid for learning funding
has been allocated to schools in Shrewsbury and Atcham through the standards fund since 1997.

Mr. Todd: To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will make a statement on progress to date on the Information for Health
initiative. [158572]
Ms Stuart: Information for Health focuses on the best use of information and Information Technology in improving health and health
care and in supporting the delivery of patient centred care and services. It is also a partnership approach involving key
stakeholders such as front line clinicians, professional and representative bodies and IT suppliers. By being inclusive,
considerable approval and support has been gained for the strategy across the National Health Service.
The strategy was launched in September 1998 and it has had to flex to take into account major new initiatives flowing from the NHS
plan and the e-Government agenda. These requirements are now fully reflected.
There are clear and defined national targets to ensure the implementation of a national information and IT infrastructure. Record
levels of funding have been committed for investment in IT over a three-year period. Local plans produced in all health communities
are monitored and analysed to ensure that investments will meet the target deliverables. Each local community consists of a host
health authority, its constituent NHS trusts, general practitioners, other primary care contractors, local authority social services
and voluntary sector organisations. All local plans produced last year were published on the Department's internet site.
The document "Building the Information Core: Implementing the NHS Plan" (www.doh.gov.uk/ nhsexipu/strategy/update/) contains details
of key targets to be achieved over the next four years, in order to meet the commitments contained in the NHS plan in relation to
information systems. Other related targets around national service priorities will emerge in due course. Collectively they give the
immediate Information Management and Technology priorities which Local Implementation Strategy (LIS) communities need to address to
provide the NHS-wide core applications and services. These fundamental targets are listed in the table at the end of this note.
The targets stretch to 2005 but progress on intermediate milestones has been strong. All GPs will be connected to NHSnet by March
2001 which will speed up and improve communications for test results, appointment booking and other patient centred information
flows. NHS Direct services now cover the whole population of England.
In addition to local implementation major development programmes are in place across the NHS. The National Booked Admission
Programme pilots have now been running for 12 months and the Electronic Record Development and Implementation Programme (ERDIP) will
provide essential lessons for national implementation of electronic patient and health records.
Progress so far has been strong and we will maintain the effort to ensure that we fully realise the opportunities now unfolding to
support a patient focused and modern NHS.

Mr. Todd: To ask the Secretary of State for Health what guidance he has given to health authorities on their allocation of resources
to individual medical specialties. [160263]
Mr. Denham: To enable health authorities to manage flexibly the totality of resources available to them, there is limited earmarking
of funds within allocations. For 2001-02 the national health service plan implementation programme identified the following sums
included in allocations with an intention that they be spent on the purpose for which they were allocated:
_________________________________________________________________________________________________.
Priority £ million
Cancer and coronary heart disease 450
Waiting times and access 423
Intermediate care and community equipment 188
Information management and technology 113
_________________________________________________________________________________________________.
These sums reflect national estimates of investment needed to deliver targets and milestones in implementing the NHS plan. They are
intended as a guide for local health communities in ensuring that their own plans will meet these targets and milestones.
A copy of the NHS plan implementation programme will be placed in the Library.

Mr. Quentin Davies: To ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, pursuant to his answer of 4 April 2001, Official Report,
column 224W, on IACS, if IACS applicants submitting electronically can be protected against the Post Office using their names and
addresses for commercial purposes. [160241]
Ms Quin: [holding answer 8 May 2001]: Applicants submitting their 2001 IACS forms electronically must first obtain a digital
certificate which they use to digitally sign their applications. Digital certificates are issued by commercial companies who have
been accepted as competent Certification Authorities. There are currently two digital certificate providers approved by the Office
of the e-Envoy: Equifax Secure who issue SecureMark certificates and the British Chambers of Commerce in partnership with Royal Mail
Viacode who issue ChamberSign certificates.
In order to obtain a digital certificate applicants provide personal information to the Certification Authority. The information
supplied to certificate providers by applicants is held under the terms of the UK Data Protection Act 1998 and as such cannot be
used for any purposes other than that for which it was originally intended, unless authorised by the applicant. This includes other
commercial purposes.
As part of the Public Key Infrastructure which underpins digital certificate technology, some of this information (name, company
name and e-mail address) will be held in a public electronic directory. This is necessary to enable the transmission of secure
e-mail.
In addition, section 11 of the Data Protection Act 1998 also offers protection to the applicant against the use of personal data for
the purposes of direct marketing. Section 11 states:
(1) An individual is entitled at any time by notice in writing to a data controller to require the data controller at the end of
such period as is reasonable in the circumstances to cease, or not to begin, processing for the purposes of direct marketing
personal data in respect of which he is the data subject.
(2) If the court is satisfied, on the application of any person who has given a notice under that subsection (1), that the data
controller has failed to comply with the notice, the court may order him to take such steps for complying with the notice as the
court thinks fit.
(3) In this section "direct marketing" means the communication (by whatever means) of any advertising or marketing material which is
directed to particular individuals.

Ms Quin: [holding answer 9 April 2001]: The Ministry was already contracted partners to the EpiMan project in 1996. The start-up
costs were approximately £16,000. An updated version of the system was obtained and installed on Monday 19 February 2001 at no
additional cost. The associated hardware was already available and access to expertise and advice, specifically for its use in the
current epidemic, was operational from the time of confirmation of the first case. It is not possible to estimate the cost of
operating this system.
