answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/11/2018 answer text <p>Non-Executive Directors are paid a fee rather than a salary and this information, together with the salaries of Executive Directors, is disclosed in the Annual Report and Accounts available at <a href="https://www.hs2.org.uk/documents/collections/hs2-ltd-corporate-reports/" target="_blank">https://www.hs2.org.uk/documents/collections/hs2-ltd-corporate-reports/</a>. Non-Executive Board members are required to work an average of two days per calendar month as per their Terms and Conditions of Appointment and receive a fee of £950 per day. Additional days worked are remunerated at the same daily rate upon presentation of days worked. Therefore we do not record hours. The Non-Executive Chairman receives an annual rate of £200,000 on the expectation of an average time commitment of 2.5 days per week.</p> answering member constituency Wealden answering member printed Ms Nusrat Ghani question first answered 13/11/2018 16:43:19 answering member 4460 label Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/11/2018 answer text <p>Taxis and private hire vehicles (PHVs) provide a vital service for many disabled people. However, as of March this year, only 38% of licensing authorities required drivers to complete disability awareness and equality training; I would urge the remainder to use their existing licensing powers to ensure that all taxi and PHV drivers have the knowledge and skills necessary to provide every passenger with the assistance they require.</p><p> </p><p>Ministers are considering the recommendations made in the report of the Chair of the Task and Finish Group on Taxi and Private Hire Vehicle Licensing, including those intended to improve accessibility. A Government response will be issued in due course.</p> answering member constituency Wealden answering member printed Ms Nusrat Ghani question first answered 14/11/2018 10:44:42 answering member 4460 label Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani
