answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/11/2016 answer text <p>It is estimated that around 200 households in Peterborough constituency will be affected by the lower benefit cap in 2016/17.</p><p>Notes:<br>1. Estimates assume no behavioural responses - any behavioural responses to the lower cap, such as claimants moving into employment, would cause the number of households affected to reduce</p><p>2. This figure is rounded to the nearest 100 households <br>3. The methodology used to estimate the households affected by the cap is consistent with that described in the latest impact assessment published here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/welfare-reform-and-work-act-impact-assessment-for-the-benefit-cap</p><p>The benefit cap will be lowered from 7th November from £26,000 to £20,000, except in London where it will be lowered to £23,000. To help ensure Local Authorities are able to protect the most vulnerable Housing Benefit claimants and to support households adjusting to our welfare reforms, the Government will provide £870m funding for Discretionary Housing Payments over the next 5 years. Information about this and other measures to ease the transition for families affected by this policy change is included in the latest impact assessment at the link above.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 04/11/2016 14:28:06 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2016 answer text <p>I recently announced a new contract for the Cross Country rail franchise that will run until October 2019. This franchise offers a number of passenger experience improvements such as free wi-fi on trains. The franchise retains the same level of service between Birmingham and Stansted Airport. I am aware that there are aspirations for improvements in the Cross Country service through Peterborough. Currently, there are no suitable diesel trains available to allow this to happen. However, should this position change, we would work with Cross Country to consider what services enhancements may be possible to deliver. There may be further enhancements across the Cross Country network, once it’s competitively let in 2019.</p> answering member constituency Blackpool North and Cleveleys answering member printed Paul Maynard question first answered 25/10/2016 14:48:31 answering member 3926 label Biography information for Paul Maynard

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/06/2016 answer text <p>In March 2013, the Home Secretary announced that increased resources would be transferred to the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) to enable it to expand and undertake many more independent investigations, including all serious and sensitive matters involving the police. This change programme is under way. The IPCC has more than doubled the number of independent investigations opened (from 241 in 2014-15 to over 500 in 2015/16). The average duration of investigations reduced from 294 working days in 2014/15 to 225 working days in 2015/16.</p><p>This Government is legislating via the Policing and Crime Bill to increase the IPCC's powers and to reform its governance structures. The reforms are designed to deliver a more capable, resilient IPCC with clearer lines of responsibility and decision making. They will further ensure that complaints and investigations are handled in a way that builds public trust and confidence.</p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 06/06/2016 15:50:41 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
