question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they have any plans to ensure that petrol filling stations are not too far apart.
tabling member printed	Lord Roberts of Llandudno
uin	HL6244
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/03/2014 answer text <p>DECC published a report from Deloitte LLP in December 2012, which considered long term changes to the retail market for road fuels in the UK, and the implications of these changes to our energy resilience. This market has changed significantly over the last decade. However, the findings of this report do not suggest that the changes to the size and shape of the retail market for road fuels have had significant impacts on the UK's ability to be able to respond to supply disruptions or that these have significantly reduced the access of UK motorists to a local supply of fuel. The report found that in 2011, 98% of postcode sectors had a petrol filling station within 10 minutes drive, and 92% had more than two within the same travel time.</p><p> </p><p>Decisions on the location of individual petrol filling stations are for local planning authorities.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Baroness Verma question first answered 27/03/2014 12:00:00 answering member 3790 label Biography information for Baroness Verma

tabling member printed	Lord Storey
uin	HL6173
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 26/03/2014 answer text <p>In June 2012 the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister announced the Government's Cadet Expansion Programme (CEP) to increase the number of state funded schools with their own military cadet force unit. The programme has been allocated £10.85 million by the Department for Education (DfE) and Ministry of Defence (MOD) so that more young people can benefit from the military cadet experience in school. The agreed DfE/MOD target is to establish 100 new units in state schools by the end of the academic year 2015/16. The CEP covers academic years from 2012/13 to 2015/16. At the end of academic year 2012/13, 21 new units had been established. A further 17 have been set up this academic year.</p><p>However, recent evidence shows that a military ethos – Service values and Service personnel – make a real difference in schools. Setting up a cadet forces scheme is a long-term way of embedding a military ethos in schools. We are commissioning plans to collect quantitative evidence on the impact of new cadet units.</p><p>The Government's aspiration is that all schools that want a cadet unit should be able to have one by 2020.</p> answering member printed Lord Nash question first answered 26/03/2014 12:00:00 answering member 4270 label Biography information for Lord Nash

tabling member printed	Lord Marlesford
uin	HL6193
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/03/2014 answer text <p>EDF's current aim is for the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station to begin generating electricity in 2023. The UK Government and EDF Group reached commercial agreement on the key terms of a proposed investment contract for the Hinkley Point C, details of which were published on 21 October 2013. Furthermore, the publication of the Opening Decision on the Hinkley Point C State aid case by the European Commission is another important step forward in the consideration of the case and an investigation is a standard part of the State aid process for cases like Hinkley. The Commission have opened a public consultation on 7<sup>th</sup> March 2014 on their Opening Decision and Government welcome all to participate in this.</p><p> </p><p>No date has been set for Sizewell C to begin generating electricity. But EDF completed last year the first stage of the local consultation which is necessary before an application for development consent can be made.</p> answering member printed Baroness Verma question first answered 24/03/2014 12:00:00 answering member 3790 label Biography information for Baroness Verma
