uin	27415
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/05/2024 answer text <p>Accountability to Parliament and to the public is one of the core values of this government. That is why within the Cabinet Office we have taken significant steps to ensure that ministers and civil servants act with integrity, professionalism and accountability at every level. For example, each of 244 major government projects in the Government Major Projects Programme now has a publicly named senior responsible officer accountable for project delivery. Departments and agencies are required to publish in their Annual Reports and Accounts public performance updates against their priority outcomes, ensuring that public scrutiny of departmental delivery is embedded across Whitehall.The accountability of arm’s length bodies has been sharpened up by the public bodies reviews programme and by updating the arm’s length body sponsorship code of good practice.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 24/05/2024 11:34:08 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/07/2023 answer text <p>The Office of Government Property coordinates the development of public land through the One Public Estate (OPE) programme. This drives efficiencies by supporting opportunities for co-location, disposals, relocations, land assembly and multi-portfolio collaboration. OPE has recently been extended to include the Place Pilot initiative which brings together central and local government partners to review future estate needs and opportunities.</p><p>To date it has supported over 800 projects, spanning 98 per cent of English councils, helping transform local communities and public services right across the country. OPE partnerships have delivered 37,332 jobs, releasing land for 37,733 new homes, raising £593 million in capital receipts and cutting running costs by £119 million.</p><p>In addition, OPE delivers the £180m Brownfield Land Release Fund 2 (BLRF2) in conjunction with DLUHC. This awards funding to Local Authorities across England for land remediation of local authority owned brownfield sites ready for housing.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Brentwood and Ongar answering member printed Alex Burghart question first answered 13/07/2023 15:33:53 answering member 4613 label Biography information for Alex Burghart

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/07/2023 answer text <p>Average disposal times for land sales are not centrally collected. These will vary depending on the nature of the land being sold. The Government Property Strategy commits to a smaller, better, greener estate, including raising £500m a year from disposals. Selling land expediently will help departments to meet this commitment.</p> answering member constituency Brentwood and Ongar answering member printed Alex Burghart question first answered 18/07/2023 16:58:20 answering member 4613 label Biography information for Alex Burghart
