answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/03/2019 answer text <p>In the revised National Planning Policy Framework, published in July 2018, we strengthened policy to create a clear expectation that all local authorities have policies in place for addressing the housing needs of older people. The number of authorities with detailed planning guidance on the provision of specialist housing for older people is not recorded.</p><p>We will publish further planning guidance, to assist councils to put these policies in place, in accordance with the Neighbourhood Planning Act commitment. We have undertaken extensive engagement in relation to the guidance, including discussions with a range of local authorities, charities and house builder representatives to identify and discuss the key issues. We will publish the guidance in due course.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse grouped question UIN 234644 234645 234646 question first answered 28/03/2019 13:40:13 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether he has made an assessment of the effectiveness of UK provision of housing-with-care for older people compared with that of other countries; and if he will make a statement.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/03/2019 answer text <p>MHCLG has not carried out such an assessment. Housing-with-care is able to react flexibly to fluctuating, or increasing, care and support needs. There is evidence to suggest that living in a housing-with-care setting can reduce the overall amount of care older people might need, whilst also having the potential to reduce loneliness levels.</p><p>In the UK only 0.7 per cent of over-65s live in a housing-with-care setting. This figure stands at more than 5 per cent in countries such as the United States, New Zealand or Australia.</p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 26/03/2019 15:03:10 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/03/2019 answer text <p>The Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme was introduced in 2012 to support investment in very early-stage companies, which often struggle to access growth capital.</p><p> </p><p>As a non-sectoral scheme, no assessment has been made of the application of the SEIS to specific industries or sectors. Since its introduction, the scheme has helped over 8,000 companies from a range of industries to raise around £800 million in investment.</p><p> </p><p>The government recognises the importance of the film industry to the UK economy, which is why it offers specific support for the production of culturally British films. Last year alone the film tax relief provided support worth £469 million, in addition to nearly £70 million in direct funding.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 19/03/2019 16:54:33 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride
