answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/06/2021 answer text <p>The National Insurance contribution relief will be important in supporting the Government’s objectives for the Freeports programme, which includes regeneration through job creation. The Government has considered the costs of the tax reliefs that will be granted across each of the eight English Freeport locations. However, as a result of these tax reliefs applying only in tax sites agreed and confirmed by Government, estimates of their cost will be dependent on the final locations once agreed.</p><p> </p><p>Bidders were required to submit initial proposals for their tax sites as part of their bids. The Government will outline the process for confirming tax sites in due course and expects to score the costs of tax reliefs, including zero-rate contributions, at the next fiscal event. These costings will undergo the usual scrutiny from the Office for Budget Responsibility.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 11/06/2021 13:50:47 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/10/2017 answer text <p>In 2016, the Secretary of State for Health announced the Government’s commitment to expanding the number of undergraduate medical training places available each year by 1,500. The Government response to the public consultation on how to implement these proposals was published on 9 August 2017. It confirmed the commitment to an expansion of 1,500 places, starting with an increase of 500 places in August 2018.</p><p>The consultation response also outlined the Government’s priorities for inclusion in the bidding criteria for the allocation of the remaining 1,000 places from August 2019. There will be some flexibility to consider phased starts in 2018-19 or 2020-21 where bids that are best able to meet the Government’s policy objectives provide strong evidence of the need to provide places to a different timescale.</p><p>Since publication of the consultation response, the Secretary of State for Education has not received proposals for the establishment of new medical schools. Further information is due in the autumn from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) and Health Education England (HEE), who are currently designing the competitive bidding process in which established, new and aspiring medical schools can participate.</p> answering member constituency Orpington answering member printed Joseph Johnson question first answered 09/10/2017 11:01:12 answering member 4039 label Biography information for Lord Johnson of Marylebone
