answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/07/2019 answer text <p>As stated in the Answer of 19 June 2019 to Question 266634, test conditions are specified in BS EN 15502-1 to ensure that the test results are repeatable and comparable. For example section 8.1.2.5 prescribes the requirement for tests to take place under thermal equilibrium conditions, with precautions taken to prevent thermostats or adjustable controls or an electronic temperature control system operating and affecting the gas rate, unless necessary for the specific test being conducted. The standard requires these precautions, where necessary, rather than stating an absolute requirement to disable or remove such boiler controls.</p> answering member constituency Kingswood answering member printed Chris Skidmore question first answered 10/07/2019 11:26:46 answering member 4021 label Biography information for Chris Skidmore

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/07/2019 answer text <p>The National Planning Policy Framework makes it clear that in rural areas, planning policies should identify opportunities for villages to grow and thrive, especially where this will support local services.
