answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/02/2023 answer text <p>Based on current understanding of the Valuation Office Agency's register, the Government believes that comparing these two datasets is likely to produce an incomplete list of households eligible for the EBSS Alternative Funding in England, as it may omit certain eligible households. Officials will undertake further work to ascertain the viability of this approach.</p> answering member constituency Beverley and Holderness answering member printed Graham Stuart question first answered 03/02/2023 11:33:17 answering member 1482 label Biography information for Graham Stuart

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/01/2023 answer text <p>Products, including those such as vapes, whether sold through on-line marketplaces or in shops, need to comply with existing product regulation. Such products must be both safe and compliant with any restrictions relating to their sale. However, eCommerce has brought new challenges to the product safety framework as was highlighted by respondents to the Government’s Call for Evidence as part of the Product Safety Review.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/01/2023 answer text <p>The Government is not persuaded that amending section 172 of the Companies Act in this way would be workable. Section 172 already requires directors to have regard in their decision-making to the environment, employees, customers and suppliers, among other matters. Since 2019, directors of large companies have been required to make a statement as part of the annual report describing how they have had regard to these matters.</p> answering member constituency Thirsk and Malton answering member printed Kevin Hollinrake question first answered 12/01/2023 12:30:55 answering member 4474 label Biography information for Kevin Hollinrake

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/10/2022 answer text <p>The scope of the data required for the Energy Price Guarantee (EPG) scheme, and how regularly it is collected and processed, is still being defined. The Government will safeguard consumers’ privacy, whilst enabling proportionate access to energy consumption data to support the monitoring, evaluation, fraud prevention and scrutiny of the EPG. Robust security measures are in place to protect data, such as firewalls and passwords and the Government will only retain data for as long as it is required. The Government will collect any data (e.g. energy consumption) via a secure transfer from the energy suppliers. Once the scope of the data has been agreed, and before it is collected and processed, a Data Protection Impact Assessment will be completed.</p> answering member constituency Beverley and Holderness answering member printed Graham Stuart grouped question UIN 67227 question first answered 27/10/2022 16:48:43 answering member 1482 label Biography information for Graham Stuart
