	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/02/2019 answer text <p>The Government’s immediate priority remains to ensure that UK participation in Horizon 2020 continues until the end of December 2020. The proposed Withdrawal Agreement, on entering force, would provide for ongoing UK participation in EU programmes until the end of 2020, and ensure funding is provided for the lifetime of individual projects beyond this. If the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the Government’s underwrite guarantee, which was announced in August 2016 would fund all successful competitive UK bids submitted to Horizon 2020 before exit. The extension to the guarantee, announced in July 2018, would also cover successful bids to Horizon 2020 calls open to third country participation that were submitted after point of exit, until the end of 2020. Both the guarantee and extension apply for the lifetime of projects.</p><p> </p><p>Although third country participation is not possible for some ERC and MSCA grants, the Government is working with stakeholders to identify appropriate measures that could be put in place in the period immediately after EU Exit, if needed.</p> answering member constituency Kingswood answering member printed Chris Skidmore question first answered 20/02/2019 12:09:08 answering member 4021 label Biography information for Chris Skidmore

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/02/2019 answer text <p>Bullying and harassment has no place in any workplace, including the Civil Service.</p><p>In our most recent People Survey, 11% of respondents, on average, told us that they'd experienced bullying or harassment at work in the 12 months preceding the survey.</p><p>Whilst this figure has remained stable since 2016, we recognise that certain groups of staff are more like to say they have experienced this type of unacceptable behaviour than others. This includes staff members with long-term limiting conditions who, in the vast majority of departments and agencies, were more likely to say they'd been bullied or harassed in the last 12 months than staff members with no long-term limiting conditions.</p><p>We are strengthening the routes for staff to report bullying and harassment to ensure that all staff are fully supported throughout the process, and to ensure cultures are positive and inclusive.</p><p>The high level People Survey results for each organisation, including reported rates of bullying and harassment, were published last December on gov.uk.</p><p>Each Spring, the Cabinet Office conducts and publishes a range of further analysis on the People Survey responses, including the results by gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation and health status. Similar analysis will be conducted again this year and made available on gov.uk.</p><p> </p><p>The results for the 2017 survey are summarised below.
