you say you have put the money but according to the institute for fiscal studies, this is the tightestaying sorry for that? we have put extra money into the nhs, we have done that year in and out. not nearly enough. what we have done, consistent like when we think it needs more funding, we have put funding in. we put extra money in for coping with the winter pressures. we have also got the budget in november that we announced that for the next couple of years they will be extra money going into they will be extra money going into the national health service. we look at what is needed and we do recognise that. we also need to ensure that we are seeing across the whole of the nhs is the best possible practice. we should be proud of the fact been named as the safe st proud of the fact been named as the safest and best health care system in the world. is there more than we can do? yes there is. the headlines on bbc news. theresa may defends the government's record on the nhs, insisting it is properly funded for coping with the winter pressures. the prime minister will carry out a cabinet r

get more insight into this story — jonathan cribb is a senior economist at the institute for fiscal studiesed by machinery. we're talking about technology now, not even thinking about the more complex technology that might be coming in the future. what we see is that if we look at where the minimum wage is now compared with only two or three years ago, the jobs affected by the minimum wage laws likely to be able to the automated than they were a few years ago. we already see that in some shops, there might be one member of staff supervising self—service tills but clearly replacing several tells you have had people standing not long ago. the technology exists to do that on a wider scale already? general technology exists that is able to replace jobs that have fixed limits and fixed rules and patterns or things that involve anger dexterity. some jobs that are relatively routine and automated all our middle paid such as bank clerks so those are things that could be in the future subject automation. the irony is this good put people out of work but actually increase productivity? the design of

years, that is whyjust in the last day we have launched a major study with the institute for fiscal studiesitical debate. we would love for the government to step forward before then and say they will take this forward seriously and drive it forward. it has to come at a moment when the political class recognised notjust a moment when the political class recognised not just that they are in terrible trouble now but that if we do not act we will be in more trouble over the next ten or 15 years. the problems we are seeing now will get worse because demand is likely to increase. there are increasing calls for national insurance to increase, but also ring fence, so that people know where it is going, nhs and social care, so then everyone knows where it is going, and everyone and the nhs know what they have to spend over a five year period. that is one mechanism, in the run—up to the last alleging we suggested, and the parties did not follow that, that they should commit toa not follow that, that they should commit to a certain proportion of the economy that they were willing to put forward and s

question of whether or not we will extend fiscal stimulus but on the table from tax reform and keep it going with a big infrastructure spend. in our view, you have to studyt carefully and we have very low expectations. the efficacy of that policy from a political standpoint is questionable. we do not think there is a clear bipartisan path to passing and infrastructure package. we will have to see what that proposal says, based upon what they are putting together. package, a $1 trillion it is a $200 billion package that is supposed to be matched by partners with heavy conditions. it is not clear whether those conditions restrict the partners for taking up that money. that this is either politically viable or effectively a stimulus. we do not know enough yet. we tell investors not to get worried about it, but in the next couple of months it might be a more serious fiscal pull to take seriously, and it needs to be put in the context of the midterm elections. you: i was going to ask about that, to what extent are the midterms a policy or market catalyst? theael: for us, obviously democrats could take control of one or two chambers or republicans can hold ser

in fiscal year 2013 oca received another grant from the doj. oca established a task force to study the issue. the task force developed five training modules to assist stakeholders and recommended improved timeliness in entering the records. those recommendations became law. prior to this texas law was silent as to the time frame under which protective orders were provided to law enforcement or entered into the cjis system. without his project the significant improvement in texas would likely not have occurred. most courts have few resource tuesday devoted to developing improvements in these records. thanks to senator cornen for his bill to fix nix legislation. we ask congress fully fund for the grant programs. we ask the state courts also be included in discussions at the federal and state level as to how to improve reporting to databases and the dispersement of federal funding for these purposes. oats difficult for state courts and other agencies to verify the number of records available to nix. it limits the ability to determine if there are systemic issues with reporting. we sug

studying monetary policy, you're asked to comment on a lot of different things. at the bank of england we were dragged into debate on inequality and climate change and fiscal policy and brexit. there are lots of ways to comment on lots of issues. having a clear mandate, 2% inflation target was a discipline for all of us, we will only comment if it relates to our goals on 2% inflation target. i think that was good for our goals. internally i thought it was very healthy what i would focus on. we would meet and debate and decide where the forecast is and which then determines what we do with rates. there's a lot of variables of people with different views and different takes. you can't argue the view on these forecasts. i found it helpful to say, okay, it's 2% target. instead of x and y. i usually go through that list, here is a list of eight things i don't think are important. i won't worry about those, instead focus my discussion on the points on things that matter. bottom line having a disciplined framework internally and how you talk externally. most important is maintaining credibility of central banks. right now, central banks have a tremendous amount of power

in fiscal 201, oca received another grant from doj to improve reporting of domestic violence related records in the database. oca established a task force to study the issue and make recommendations to improve reporting. the task force developed five training models to report to databases and improved timely ns in entering the records. those became texas law that now requires court clerks and law enforcement to transmit family violence protective orders within three days after the protective order is entered. prior to this, texas law was sile silent. without the federal funding, the significant improvements in texas likely would not have occurred. perhaps the greatest challenge facing state courts today that want to report records is the issue of resources. most courts have few resources to devote to developing improvements in the transmittal of these records. thank to senator cornyn for his bill. it reauthorizes the grant programs i previously described. the bill provides good authorization funding levels for these programs and we ask congress fully fund an appropriation for the grant programs. because of the particular challenges state courts
