answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/03/2019 answer text <p>As is the case with all of our Local Full Fibre Network (LFFN) projects, DCMS has assigned a Project Director to work with the Local Body project teams. The project will firstly be assured through the formal BDUK assurance process via a series of gateway review points. As the project progresses into delivery, this will be reviewed through weekly updates into the LFFN Programme Office on delivery progress, finances/grant claims, change management, and risks/issues - in line with the North Wales project consortia project plan. We use an online Portfolio Management system called Cora PPM to facilitate this.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/03/2019 answer text <p>All projects allocated funding as part of the Local Full Fibre Networks (LFFN) Wave 3 must have completed the portion of their build funded by DCMS by March 2021. This is the end of our LFFN funding window from HM Treasury. These projects contain varying degrees of additional funding from Local Bodies themselves - who of course may choose to self fund these projects beyond this date.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 19/03/2019 11:26:34 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/03/2019 answer text <p>My department is responsible for Section 507b of the 1996 Education Act that states that: “every local authority in England must, so far as reasonably practicable, secure for qualifying young persons in the authority’s area access to sufficient educational and recreational activities.”</p><p> </p><p>During the last eight years no one has sought to make the case to me or my Department that any local authority is in formal breach of this duty. The guidance, which sets out how this this statutory duty could be discharged, has not been revised since 2012 and in the Civil Society Strategy published last August we committed to review it. We will make a further announcement about our plans to do that in due course.</p> answering member constituency Eastleigh answering member printed Mims Davies question first answered 04/03/2019 14:58:39 answering member 4513 label Biography information for Mims Davies
