question text	Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the value for money for licence fee payers of those BBC journalists paid over £650,000 per year.
tabling member printed	Lord Truscott
uin	HL1200
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/07/2017 answer text <p>The public deserves to know how its licence fee is being spent, which is why the government required the BBC to publish the salary details of all BBC staff and talent paid over £150,000. This was published for the first time as part of the BBC 2016/17 annual report. The BBC is operationally and editorially independent from government, and the amount it pays its staff and talent is a matter for them. It is for licence fee payers to determine whether the BBC is value for money.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 26/07/2017 13:18:17 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde

uin	HL817
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/07/2017 answer text <p>The UK is the most generous place in Europe and one of the most generous places in the world. In 2016 alone, the British public donated around £10 billion to charitable causes and 73% of people gave money in an average month. This is a level of generosity that deserves to be celebrated. To help build a compassionate country that works for everyone, this Government will make it as easy and compelling as possible for people to give.</p><p> </p><p>The Government currently offers several schemes to incentivise higher-rate taxpayers to give. Tax relief is offered when donations are made through Gift Aid, when donating land, property, shares, or if gifts are left to charity in a will. Relief is also available for any individual or company who donates cultural artefacts through the Cultural Gift Scheme.</p><p> </p><p>At the Giving Roundtables held in 2016, the Government heard about opportunities to increase charitable giving by higher-rate taxpayers. Further announcements about those opportunities will follow.</p><p>The £4m Libraries: Opportunities for Everyone innovation fund, managed by Arts Council England on behalf of DCMS, was set up to pilot library service projects that provide benefit disadvantaged people and places in England. These pilots will be tracked and evaluated, with a view to encouraging wider adoption and investment in those which prove most successful.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 25/07/2017 10:27:46 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
