The Political Declaration recognises that the UK may choose to align with the EU’s rules in relevant areas to facilitate trade in goods or security cooperation.

answer text <p>We are unable to provide purchasing data prior to 2017. In 2017 DFID London purchased approximately 4,300 ‘Vegware’ cups every month. Made from plant material – not plastic – these cups are organic, compostable and can be recycled with the food waste. In 2017 DFID Scotland took delivery of approximately 3,000 card and plastic cups. There are schemes in both DFID offices to encourage use of reusable coffee cups, with 10% off the price of a coffee when staff use their own cup. In DFID Scotland reusable cups are available for purchase, with the aim of bringing down the number of disposable coffee cups used.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Department for International Development has not provided direct funds in the current financial year to projects in developing states tackling illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing.</p><p>DfID has provided funds to multilateral agencies and global funds which support ongoing efforts to improve marine governance including tackling illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. For example, UK support to the FAO’s core functions includes the FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department. The FAO hosts the International Plan of Action (IPOA) to Prevent, Deter, and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing (IUU), which are to be implemented by countries. In addition, UK support to the Global Environment Facility contributes to investments in international waters to improve and implement governance frameworks.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>The Government will bring forward legislation in the next session that, when enacted, will repeal the European Communities Act 1972 and ensure a functioning statute book on the day we leave the EU. This ‘Great Repeal Bill’ will end the authority of EU law and return power to the UK. The Bill will convert existing European Union law into domestic law, wherever practical and in that context all relevant legislation is currently being identified and assessed.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The table below shows the UK contributions to the World Bank (specifically to IBRD, the non-concessional lending arm of the World Bank) in paid in capital and callable capital in each of the last five years.</p><p> </p><p>Please note that the UK did not pay in additional capital to IBRD or contribute additional callable capital in 2010. Additional contributions to multilateral development bank’s capital are infrequent and only happen through General or Selective Capital Increases (known as GCIs and SCIs). The most recent of these for IBRD became effective in 2011.</p><p> </p><p>The paid in amount is fixed in US dollar terms. As such the Sterling amount varies slightly each year depending on the exchange rate. The callable element increases on a pro-rata basis as each paid in contribution is made and is reported in US Dollars in IBRD’s accounts.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td> </td><td><p><strong>Paid- in capital - Sterling paid equivalent </strong><strong>to US $31,114,059</strong></p><p><strong> (paid in December of each stated year)</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Callable capital (as stated in IBRD audited </strong><strong>accounts at June 30th of following year)</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2010</strong></p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>$7,832.2m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2011</strong></p></td><td><p><br> £19,957,703</p></td><td><p>$8,319.6m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2012</strong></p></td><td><p>£19,451,149</p></td><td><p>$8,807.1m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2013</strong></p></td><td><p>£19,047,480</p></td><td><p>$9,294.4m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>2014</strong></p></td><td><p>£19,915,547</p></td><td><p>$9,781.9m</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p> </p>
