answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/07/2017 answer text <p>The Government has shown it is committed to reducing geographical, wealth and generational inequality. It will continue to consider such issues when making public spending allocations.</p><p> </p><p>A key priority for this government is to make sure the economy works for the whole country, not just certain parts. In the latest year, the economy grew fastest in the North West, the number of people in work grew fastest in the South West and unemployment fell fastest in Scotland. Looking ahead, the Government is developing an industrial strategy to drive productivity, create jobs, and ensure sustainable economic growth across the country.</p><p> </p><p>Our increases to the National Minimum Wage rate will benefit younger people, as will our actions to help young people get on the housing ladder. Income inequality is now lower now than it was in 2010, and the share of total income tax paid by the top 1% is 27%.</p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss question first answered 10/07/2017 14:54:14 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/07/2017 answer text <p>The UK Government has followed procedures set out in the Statement of Funding Policy, which in no way prevent the UK Government taking discretionary action to provide funding outside of the Barnett system.</p><p> </p><p>The Barnett formula determines changes to block grant funding allocated to the devolved administrations by the UK government in relation to departmental spending within Departmental Expenditure Limits. As there has been no change in UK government Department Expenditure Limits, it follows that no Barnett Consequentials are generated.</p> answering member constituency Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale answering member printed David Mundell question first answered 03/07/2017 16:37:49 answering member 1512 label Biography information for David Mundell

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/07/2017 answer text <p>Like previous Northern Ireland support packages, and City Deals in Wales and Scotland, this funding is a targeted intervention to address a specific set of unique challenges.</p><p>And as was the case for those previous interventions, this exceptional funding will be made outside of the normal, ongoing, Barnett funding system. It will therefore not attract Barnett consequentials. It will be allocated as an addition to the Northern Ireland Executive’s regular block grant.</p><p>This is not unprecedented and Wales will continue to receive direct investment from the UK Government to support growth. Since 2014, the UK Government has committed over £600m of investment in Wales through City Deals and the government is committed to further City Deals. In addition, the government has also committed to £50m for the Compound Semi-Conductor Applications Catapult Centre in South Wales.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p> answering member constituency Vale of Glamorgan answering member printed Alun Cairns question first answered 03/07/2017 16:07:23 answering member 4086 label Biography information for Alun Cairns
