To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the explicit monetary value per quality-adjusted life was in the context of Homicide and crime categories of wounding, sexual offences, common assault and robbery, as quoted as part of her Department’s submission to the Inter-Departmental Group for the Valuation of Life and Health review in 2008.

A copy of the Home Office’s written response to the 2008 Survey of Departmental
Practice in the Valuation of Life and Health will be placed in the Library. The
Home Office does not have a record of its response to the questions in Stage 2
of the Survey. This is because the interviews were carried out face-to-face
with researchers at the University of Leeds.
The Home Office first estimated the social and economic costs of crime in 2000:

ds/pdfs/hors217.pdf.
The most recent update to these estimates prior to the Department’s submission
to the Inter-Departmental Group for the Valuation of Life and Health review in
2008 was published in 2005:

The monetary value per quality-adjusted life year used in the 2005 report was
£80,620 in 2003 prices. This was based on a paper by Carthy et al. (1999).
The below Parliamentary question was asked by Stephen O’Brien on 2014-04-09.
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, what the evidential basis was of his decision to withdraw Government support from Cheshire Employer and Skills Development Limited (CE&SDL); what assessment he made of the performance of CE&SDL in (a) developing (i) work-based learning and (ii) any other skills, (b) encouraging apprenticeships and (c) other respects in the period (A) following its founding and (B) at the time it was required to cease its activities; and what representations his Department received for and against its decision to withdraw support.
Matthew Hancock
The Government did not withdraw funding from CE&SDL. In 2007, at the request of CE&SDL, the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) transferred the contract for skills provision from CE&SDL to a successor legal entity, Total People. CE&SDL continued to operate when the contract was transferred to Total People but did not directly receive any further funding nor did it acquire funding as a subcontractor. It was dissolved as a company in April 2014. The Skills Funding Agency, as the LSC’s successor, continued to fund Total People, and still does so today.
Both the earliest and latest performance data available demonstrate a mixed picture. Prior to 2007 CE&SDL’s performance was below the national average. After 2007, and the transfer of contact to Total People, performance was stronger and sometimes higher than national average.
Neither the Government nor the Skills Funding Agency has received any representations about this organisation.
