	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/10/2017 answer text <p>Defra is amongst those government departments whose work is most closely linked to and affected by EU activity, legal frameworks and funding. |Some 80% of Defra’s work is framed by EU legislation and a quarter of EU laws apply to Defra’s sectors. As a result, Defra has an extensive programme of work focused on delivering a smooth exit from the EU, and like all government departments, we are working on preparations for a range of scenarios. The government has committed over £250 million of new money in this financial year for EU exit preparations in departments across Whitehall.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 31/10/2017 16:27:40 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/06/2015 answer text <p>In November 2014, Defra published the National Pollinator Strategy which forms a framework for collective action to help manage and raise awareness of the pressures facing bees and other pollinators. The Strategy seeks to address key gaps in our understanding about the status of pollinators, identifies specific policy and evidence actions for government and others, and also identifies actions that everyone can take to help expand food, shelter and nest sites. To raise public awareness, a ‘Call to Action’, ‘Bees’ Needs: Food and a Home’ was launched in July 2014. This is a simple message to all land managers on the essential needs of pollinators and how to fulfil them. Defra will publish a ‘one year on’ progress report on the Strategy in autumn 2015.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>As set out in the Strategy, our work over the next five years to develop the evidence base will allow us to identify pollinator trends with greater certainty, so that we can assess progress with our outcomes and identify where further action should be taken. This evidence base will include consideration of the impact of pesticides.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 22/06/2015 14:20:49 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice
