    Baroness Byford – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs

    To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether the provision in the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005 on stop, search and seizure of vehicles suspected of involvement in fly-tipping has been commenced; and, if so, how many vehicles have been seized under that provision.

    Lord De Mauley

    In 2014/15 we plan to commence the revised powers under the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005in respect of the stop, search and seizure of vehicles. Local authorities and the Environment Agency have similar powers under the Control of Pollution (Amendment) Act 1989. Local authorities have reported to Flycapture, the national flytipping database, that 1149 vehicles have been seized since April 2008.

    Baroness Byford – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

    The below Parliamentary question was asked by Baroness Byford on 2014-05-07.

    To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Health, Dr Daniel Poulter MP, on 18 March (HC Deb, 574W), how many of the 145 serious data breaches reported for acute trusts were the result of theft; how many individuals were involved; how many trusts were implicated; and how many trusts were involved in more than one such breach.

    Earl Howe

    In the period from 1 June 2013 to 14 March 2014 where details of serious incidents have been reported through the Health and Social Care Information Centre (HSCIC) Incident Reporting tool there have been 21 breaches reported by acute trusts under the categories of either ‘lost or stolen’ hardware or paperwork. Seven of these are verified as theft and 14 are possible thefts but this has not been proven. 19 trusts each reported a single incident and one reported two.
