answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/04/2022 answer text <p>The Department comprises the Core Department together with its 19 agencies and arm’s length bodies, many of which are large organisations who conduct a significant level of transactional activity and may incur a relatively high volume of low value losses. Detailed registers of all Losses and Special Payments are held locally by each agency and arm’s length body, in accordance with MPM paragraph A4.10.7. In order to meet MPM reporting requirements, the central department holds summary level information on the total number and value of Losses and Special Payments across the departmental group and specific details of items above £300,000, as disclosed in the Annual Report &amp; Accounts. Due to the high volume of low value cases, it would not be practicable for the Department to provide a detailed analysis of all Losses &amp; Special Payments below £300,000.</p> answering member constituency Pendle answering member printed Andrew Stephenson question first answered 04/04/2022 14:51:52 answering member 4044 label Biography information for Andrew Stephenson

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/03/2022 answer text <p>I can confirm that following the publication of the <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/covid-19-response-living-with-covid-19" target="_blank">COVID-19 Response: Living with COVID-19</a> plan on 21 February the Department for Transport and its Agencies has taken steps to ensure our internal Covid-19 policies and principles align with the latest Government guidance.</p><p>This includes the <a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/working-safely-during-covid-19" target="_blank">Working Safely during Coronavirus (COVID-19): Guidance</a> published on 24 February. This continues to require organisations to carry out a risk assessment which includes the risk from COVID-19. It also sets out additional actions organisations can take to protect employees and customers in the workplace, such as ensuring adequate ventilation, frequent cleaning, asking people to wash their hands frequently and asking people with COVID-19 to stay away. The guidance advises that people continue to wear face coverings in crowded and enclosed settings where they come into contact with people they do not normally meet, when rates of transmission are high.</p><p>These principles align with the current advice provided by the Department and will support and reassure our employees that they can continue to return to the workplace in a safe and controlled way. Our policies will be updated to reflect any further changes in Government advice. This includes where there may be differences in approach in the devolved administrations. <br></p> answering member constituency Pendle answering member printed Andrew Stephenson question first answered 07/03/2022 10:55:07 answering member 4044 label Biography information for Andrew Stephenson
