	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/03/2022 answer text The general licence INT/2022/1272278 (Wind Down Positions Involving VTB) was issued on 25 February to allow for an orderly wind down of contracts with the bank, which was designated on 24 February. The general licence permits only the wind down of existing activity for third parties and expires on 27 March 2022. The general licence has been granted to reduce disruption in the UK financial system, not to permit VTB to proactively exit positions. It ensures that VTB will not benefit from a situation where UK persons cannot close out their positions or wind down transactions involving the bank. answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 07/03/2022 18:29:32 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

This can include funding support for capital works to remove any immediate risk and, where absolutely necessary, the provision of temporary buildings.</p><p>Longer term remediation of RAAC is supported by annual capital funding provided to the sector and the Department’s rebuilding programme. The Department provides additional support on a case by case basis where there is a serious safety issue with a school building that cannot be managed independently by Local Authorities, academy trusts, and voluntary aided school bodies.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 12/07/2023 16:50:17 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
