answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/03/2020 answer text <p>The Treasury has given the FCA strong powers to ensure that products are regulated and promoted effectively. In May last year, following the collapse of London Capital and Finance, I launched a review of the regulatory regime for the issuance of non-transferable debt securities – often known as mini-bonds. This review has also encompassed the way that these products are marketed to consumers through the financial promotions regime. The Government will be announcing the results of this review shortly.</p><p> </p><p>The Government takes fraud very seriously and continues to work closely with industry to close down the vulnerabilities that fraudsters exploit and ensure members of the public have the information they need to spot a scam and stand up to fraudsters.</p><p> </p><p>I recognise that issuers of fraudulent online financial promotions have no regard for the regulatory protections we have in place. I have therefore asked my officials to work with the FCA as a priority to consider how best to respond to fraudulent financial services activity online.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 05/03/2020 09:24:35 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/07/2019 answer text <p>Public sector net investment is set to reach levels not sustained in 40 years. In addition, public sector gross investment, which is net investment plus depreciation, helps to show the spending element of this. These figures include both economic and social infrastructure, as well as spending on other areas classified as capital spending. The latest figures from the Office for Budget Responsibility show that total public sector gross investment was £79.6bn in 2010-11, £71.4bn in 2011-12, £75.9bn in 2012-13, £68.7bn in 2013-14, £75.6bn in 2014-15, £74.2bn in 2015-16, £79.2bn in 2016-17, £83.7bn in 2017-18 and £82.0bn in 2018-19. Public sector gross investment peaked around the financial crisis due to Government intervention to support the economy. According to the National Infrastructure Assessment carried out by the National Infrastructure Commission in 2017, spending on economic infrastructure had risen from £12.4bn in 2012-13 to £18.7bn in 2016-17.</p> answering member constituency Newark answering member printed Robert Jenrick question first answered 19/07/2019 11:15:18 answering member 4320 label Biography information for Robert Jenrick
