answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2015 answer text <p>Armed forces veterans receive payments either through the War Disablement Pension (WDP) or the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS). The AFCS applies to veterans injured from April 2005. It has always been the case that personal injury compensation payments have been disregarded in when assessing how much a person can contribute towards the cost of local authority arranged care and support. Since October 2012 Guaranteed Income Payments made under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme have also been disregarded. The Department of Health has been in discussion with the Royal British Legion about how WDP payments are currently treated.</p><p>The Government is in the process of considering the future funding of social care as part of the current spending review.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 16/10/2015 12:04:17 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2015 answer text <p>Countryside Stewardship has introduced significant rationalisation with regard to its predecessors; integrating three legacy schemes into one. At the same time the number of environmental management options available has been reduced by 70% and the number of capital items by 20%.</p><p>Most of the elements in Countryside Stewardship (higher tier; woodland and water capital grants) remain largely analogous to their predecessor schemes. However, the application process has been inevitably more complex than intended given the need for a paper based application system this year.</p><p>The stricter EU control rules have resulted in greater reliance on record keeping and other documentary evidence to demonstrate compliance but we have already published guidance on the controls applicable to the scheme in order to clarify the requirements.</p><p>We will evaluate this first year of the scheme and simplify it wherever possible.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 16/10/2015 12:14:38 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2015 answer text <p>Seafish does not spend its levy, directly or through other bodies, on promoting the fishing industries of other North Sea or Norwegian Sea countries. At the request of the four Fisheries Ministers, Seafish introduced a transparent process in 2012 to agree priorities for spending. Seafish consults UK Industry Panels to ensure that all parts of the UK seafood sector benefit proportionately from the levy raised. These activities are set out in the Seafish Corporate Plan, which can be found on the Seafish website.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 16/10/2015 09:38:31 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice
