unstar this property answer text <p>The government has committed to increase the recycling of packaging waste and the recyclability of packaging. The recent Resources and Waste Strategy announced that the government would improve recycling rates by ensuring a consistent set of dry recyclable materials is collected from all households and businesses and that every householder and appropriate businesses have a weekly separate food waste collection. For packaging waste, we will invoke the ‘polluter pays’ principle and extended producer responsibility for packaging, ensuring that producers pay the full net costs of managing packaging waste at end of life. Government will also ensure that local authorities are resourced to meet the new net costs arising from policies within the Resources and Waste Strategy.</p> more like this

unstar this property answer text <p>The Chancellor has been clear that raising productivity is the only way to expand the economy in the long term. Doing so will mean encouraging growth in the manufacturing sector, boosting the adoption of technology and enabling more British firms to export. That’s why we increased the National Productivity Investment Fund to £37bn at Budget 2018, and have announced a wide range of productivity enhancing measures at previous fiscal events. Most recently this has included £81 million for a new extreme photonics centre in Oxfordshire, £45 million for the European Bioinformatics Institute, and £79 million for a new supercomputer to be hosted at Edinburgh University.</p><p> </p> more like this

unstar this property answer text <p>The Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) ‘Mortgage Market Review’ regulations are based on the principle that mortgages should only be advanced where there is a reasonable expectation that borrowers can repay. To provide new mortgage loans, all lenders must conduct an affordability assessment which includes a robust income and expenditure analysis, and the lender must obtain evidence of that income to support this assessment. Lenders must also comply with rules set by the Financial Policy Committee (FPC) at the Bank of England, intended to manage financial stability risks from the housing market, including a limit of 15% of new lending above 4.5 Loan-to-Income (LTI), and a stress test for loans at 3% above the Standard Variable Rate.</p><p> </p><p>Both the FCA and the Bank of England keep their mortgage market regulations under review to ensure that they meet their objectives. In May 2016 the FCA conducted a review of the MMR, finding that the regulations had been implemented as desired protecting consumers without unduly restricting the availability of credit. The FCA’s Mortgages Market Study of March 2019 also found that the market is working well for consumers. The FPC most recently reviewed their housing tools in December 2019 in their Financial Stability Report, including the 4.5 LTI cap, finding that they have had a positive impact in upholding strong underwriting standards to prevent an increase in the number of highly indebted households, whilst having only a limited impact on mortgage availability.</p>
