	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/11/2016 answer text <p>By the end of 2018, my aim is for every passenger to have the choice of travelling without a paper ticket. In the first instance this means commuters having access to a smart season ticket, and other travellers being able to buy and use barcode tickets on their mobile phones anywhere on the network. Smart tickets offer passengers more convenience and choice – including better and more targeted travel information such as real time train running and platform information. My Department will oversee the delivery of these programmes.</p><p> </p><p>By the end of the year the South East Flexible Ticketing programme will have introduced smart ticketing on five of the major London and south east rail operators. In the North of England, we have committed £150m to support Transport for the North (TfN) in its plans to introduce smart ticketing. The Rail Delivery Group have brought the rail industry together to agree a long-term vision and it is critical that rail operators collaborate and share ideas to make this vision a reality. Through franchising competitions we are supporting the rail industry to develop and deliver modernised ticketing by setting challenging requirements for bidders, ensuring that customers benefit from a 21st century option.</p><p> </p><p>Flexible tickets can also offer significant benefits to customers.</p> answering member constituency Blackpool North and Cleveleys answering member printed Paul Maynard question first answered 16/11/2016 13:44:44 answering member 3926 label Biography information for Paul Maynard

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/03/2017 answer text <p>The Property Data Survey (PDS) was carried out to gather high level condition data on schools in the education estate, in order to better inform the Department on how to allocate capital funding to schools. The PDS provided condition data on 18,830 schools in England and provided condition data on each block in schools (59,967 blocks across the school estate).</p><p>Information on the age of school blocks was collected through the PDS and the categories used to define the age of blocks were Pre 1919, Inter War, 1945 to 1966, 1967 to 1976, post 1976 and temporary premises. The PDS did not specifically identify blocks built between 1960 and 1969. We did, however, identify buildings built between 1945 to 1966 and 1967 to 1976.</p><p>The PDS gathered condition data on a majority of schools in Hampshire. The Department does not hold specific condition information on blocks built in the 1960s under the Second Consortium of Local Authorities programme.</p><p>The Department is currently undertaking a new data collection; the Condition Data Collection (CDC) programme. This is the successor to the PDS. It aims to build on the successes of PDS in collecting independent centrally managed data about the condition of the school estate nationally.</p><p>The programme will commence in February 2017 and continue until autumn 2019. We aim to collect data on all state funded schools excluding Independent Specialist Providers, Special Post 16 Institutions and Further Education colleges. The data collected should provide information on areas of the highest condition need and drive our approach on how we invest in order to prioritise funding.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb grouped question UIN 65188 question first answered 01/03/2017 16:02:47 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
