question text	To ask His Majesty's Government whether the routine visual checks for five per cent of movements of non-agricultural goods through the Green Lane into Northern Ireland under the Windsor Framework will be in addition to intelligence-led and risk-based checks.
tabling member printed	Lord Weir of Ballyholme
uin	HL7305
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/05/2023 answer text <p>Trusted traders will face no routine physical checks on their goods moving in the green lane. The only physical checks completed will be risk-based and intelligence-led to target smuggling, criminality, abuse or specific risks to animal, plant or public health. For agrifood goods, we will also radically reduce the number of visual inspections done on consignments in the green lane - from 100 per cent now to 5 per cent by 2025.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon grouped question UIN HL7306 question first answered 04/05/2023 16:04:37 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the remarks by Baroness Vere of Norbiton on 22 March (HL Deb col 906), how Eurotunnel and the expansion of services in the short straits between Southern England and France will directly improve the urgent supply of (1) food, and (2) other items, to Northern Ireland via the Cairnryan to Larne sea route.
tabling member printed	Lord Rogan
uin	HL7305
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/04/2022 answer text <p>My remarks referred to the Short Straits as an example of what is being done to provide sufficient capacity.</p><p>Operators are endeavouring to run additional services across different routes, including the short straits and Cairnryan to Larne route, to absorb the demand created across affected P&amp;O routes. For example, Stena are already running an additional vessel on the Cairnryan to Larne route.</p><p>My Department is regularly engaging with all relevant operators, to maintain an up to date picture of demand management across sea routes into the UK and between Great Britain and Northern Ireland. I am aware that officials in Defra are regularly engaging with a wide range of food suppliers, to monitor the supply of food to the UK, including Northern Ireland. Officials across Government are conducting similar engagement with suppliers of other goods.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Vere of Norbiton question first answered 04/04/2022 10:40:53 answering member 4580 label Biography information for Baroness Vere of Norbiton

house id	2
legislature	25277 pref label House of Lords
question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government whether the Child Maintenance Service is currently able to request the provision of P60s to enable calculations of child maintenance to be made; if so, to what extent such powers are used; and if not, whether they plan to allow for the request of P60s in future.
tabling member printed	Lord Stevenson of Balmacara
uin	HL7305
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/05/2018 answer text <p>The calculation of child maintenance is based upon gross income information from the most recent tax year provided directly to the DWP by HMRC. Every year the calculation is updated as new income information is reported to HMRC. A P60 shows income reported to HMRC at the end of the tax year and so would contain this same information. For this reason it is not necessary to use P60s as evidence when calculating maintenance.</p> answering member printed Baroness Buscombe question first answered 02/05/2018 14:33:11 answering member 3349 label Biography information for Baroness Buscombe

tabling member printed	Baroness Scott of Needham Market
uin	HL7305
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/04/2016 answer text <p>The Government is engaging with areas across the country to explore how devolution to neighbourhood level can enable more effective co-ordination and tailoring of services and engage communities in delivery and design of services. However, agreeing devolution deals is a bottom-up process - it is up to areas to determine the nature of devolution and the role of town and parish councils, as well as other local groups.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 07/04/2016 15:44:19 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford
