answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2023 answer text <p>The distribution of the costs and benefits of the transition to net zero will depend on future policy decision. The UK's approach demonstrates that ‘green’ and ‘growth’ go hand in hand. The transition will help shield households and business from the destabilising effects of volatile fossil fuel markets and will provide huge opportunities for jobs, investment, innovation and exports.</p><p> </p><p>Energy saving schemes have also been targeted towards vulnerable households and steps have been taken to protect exposed industries. The OBR has also set out that while unmitigated climate change would spell disaster, the net fiscal costs of moving to net zero by 2050 could be comparatively modest.</p> answering member constituency Beverley and Holderness answering member printed Graham Stuart question first answered 24/07/2023 11:39:05 answering member 1482 label Biography information for Graham Stuart

The Climate Change Committee stated that this is in line with the Paris Agreement temperature goal. Given the UK's leading development of global low carbon technologies, the impact of the UK's actions reach beyond its own emissions.</p> answering member constituency Beverley and Holderness answering member printed Graham Stuart question first answered 26/07/2023 12:08:35 answering member 1482 label Biography information for Graham Stuart

uin	192280
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/07/2023 answer text <p>A person’s access to university should not be determined by their personal characteristics, but by their ambition and ability. We want to provide a ladder of opportunity for everyone to get the education and skills they need for job security and prosperity and to support levelling up across the country, regardless of gender, ethnicity, or socio-economic background.</p><p>There are challenges related to gender representation in higher education (HE). Data shows that more than half (50.6%) of female pupils from state-funded schools in England entered HE by age 19 by 2020/21, compared to 38.4% of males. The gap in progression rates between males and females rose from 11.4 to 12.2 percentage points between 2019/20 and 2020/21.</p><p>We know that prior attainment is a key determinant of successful participation in HE, and that is why we have asked universities to take on a more direct role in driving up the standards in schools.</p><p>Our access and participation reforms announced in 2021 are playing a pivotal role in ensuring that students are supported to access and succeed on the right course for them. As part of this refresh of the system, the Office for Students (OfS) has asked more institutions to set targets for increasing the proportion of level 4 and 5 qualifications, and higher and degree apprenticeships that they offer, so that more students can access flexible and skills-related courses.</p><p>In March 2023, the OfS launched its Equality of Opportunity Risk Register (EORR). This will empower HE providers to deliver interventions for groups of students least likely to experience equal opportunity in HE settings by highlighting 12 key sector risks and the groups most likely to experience these, including gender. We welcome the EORR as a key marker for social justice which will help ensure that no student groups are left behind.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Harlow answering member printed Robert Halfon question first answered 12/07/2023 16:11:18 answering member 3985 label Biography information for Robert Halfon
