answer text <p>The decision to release Kneller Hall was confirmed as part of the Ministry of Defence’s land release announcement on 18 January 2016. Whilst the site will not be released before 2018, there are no plans to maintain a military presence (people permanently living and working) at the site once it has been released.</p><p> </p><p>I am keen to reinforce the Military relationship with the Kneller hall site, utilising our historic links with Twickenham Borough Council who have signed up to the Armed Forces Covenant, pledging specific support for the Armed Forces Community.</p><p> </p><p>We have also previously committed to continue to hold concerts at Kneller Hall in order to continue the association of the area with the Armed Forces.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Foreign purchasers of UK property are liable to Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT). Since 1 April 2016 higher rates of SDLT have been charged on purchases of additional residential properties, such as second homes and buy-to-let properties.</p><p> </p><p>For the purposes of the higher rates, properties owned globally are taken into consideration when deciding whether the charges should apply to a given purchase. In addition to this, non-residents contribute to the tax system through SDLT, council tax and potentially capital gains tax.</p><p> </p><p>The Government believes it has the right approach to ensuring all purchasers, including foreign investors, pay their fair share of tax. However, all taxes are kept under review.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The National Information Board’s strategy document <em>Personalised Health and Care 2020 </em>(published November 2014) set out the aim to support greater uptake of the use of digital systems in health and care to create a National Health Service paper free at the point of care by 2020. This will remove the system’s reliance on paper and will help reduce postal service costs for the NHS.</p><p> </p><p>In the case of appointment letters for patients the new NHS e-referral system, introduced last year, already allows healthcare providers to choose not to send out appointment letters, instead allowing patients to access the information directly from the NHS e-referral system. Patients have an option to print off the details of their appointment if they prefer to have a paper copy of the information. We expect increasing numbers of providers will use this functionality to help contain costs.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p> more like this
