uin	133994
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/04/2018 answer text <p>All horses resident in the UK are required to hold an equine passport, which requires registration with a UK Passport Issuing Organisation (PIO). Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2015/262 requires the particulars of this passport to be included in a national equine database, which includes details of the horse’s owner. The UK therefore requires all PIOs to share relevant data with the Central Equine Database. This gives government, Local Authorities and the Food Standards Agency access to records on all horses and other equines resident in the UK.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 04/04/2018 12:49:46 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/03/2018 answer text <p>My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State has received a recent update about Cornwall Newquay Airport’s plans to build a spaceport. We welcome the strong Cornish interest in the space sector, and the region’s recently announced Space Action Plan. Organisations like the South West Satellite Catapult Centre of Excellence and Goonhilly Earth Station will enable Cornwall to play a part in the new commercial space age.</p><p> </p><p>Our Industrial Strategy recognises the role of new markets like space launch in driving growth across the UK. The UK Space Agency is delivering a major programme to enable companies to offer small satellite launch and sub-orbital spaceflight from UK spaceports. The Space Agency has considered 26 separate proposals for grant funding, that remain confidential, and will make further announcements about this in the coming months.</p><p> </p><p>However, the UK Space Agency is not considering bids to become the UK’s national spaceport. Any site can still develop their plans for a UK spaceport entirely independent of government funds, and all sites will need to apply for a government licence to operate.</p> answering member constituency East Surrey answering member printed Mr Sam Gyimah question first answered 19/03/2018 13:51:24 answering member 3980 label Biography information for Mr Sam Gyimah
