	question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what has been the cost to (1) local authorities, and (2) the Electoral Commission, of preparation for, and administration of, the scheme of individual electoral registration, since that scheme was introduced.
	tabling member printed	Lord Campbell-Savours
	uin	HL3962
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/12/2017 answer text <p>The Cabinet Office has provided funding to Local Authorities to reflect the increase in costs of registration under individual electoral registration compared to the previous household system. This means that the cost of individual electoral registration has been borne directly by central Government. The amount of funding provided to local authorities in 2013-15 was some £49 million. This was shared between all Electoral Registration Officers in Great Britain. This sum includes £10 million allocated to boost voter registration during the transition. The Cabinet Office continues to provide funding to assist Electoral Registration Officers with the management of electoral registration.</p><p>The Electoral Commission was a major supporter of the introduction of individual electoral registration and played an essential role in its successful implementation. Her Majesty’s Government is not in a position, however, to report on costs incurred by the Electoral Commission which is an independent body.</p> answering member printed Lord Young of Cookham question first answered 19/12/2017 13:48:20 answering member 57 label Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/05/2023 answer text <p>In the last 3 years, 1 export licence has been applied for and approved to Sudan that we have assessed as potentially useable in war conflict. The military goods in this licence were personal protective equipment for international humanitarian use and the value of the licence was £188,000. Please note that data from 1 January 2023 has not yet been published as Official Statistics by HM Government, therefore we have not included any information regarding applications processed from this date.</p><p>The Government assesses each export licence application against the Strategic Export Licensing Criteria and will not issue a licence where to do so would be inconsistent with the UK’s international obligations and commitments to respect arms embargoes and sanctions. The Sudan (Sanctions) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 include provisions for licensing military items when they are for use by the UN for peacekeeping and, or humanitarian purposes.</p> answering member printed The Earl of Minto question first answered 19/05/2023 12:12:35 answering member 4952 label Biography information for The Earl of Minto

This includes looking at the benefits smaller reactors can provide to the UK energy mix.</p><p> </p><p>Future updates to the analysis will also include considering the findings of the Expert Finance Working Group which was set up to advise Government on how small reactor projects could raise private investment in the UK, and the outputs from the Advanced Modular Reactor (AMR) R&amp;D Programme of which all 8 participants have now submitted their feasibility studies.</p> answering member printed Lord Henley question first answered 11/02/2019 15:34:37 answering member 2616 label Biography information for Lord Henley

	uin	HL13323
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/02/2019 answer text <p>Since 2015, the Government has engaged with over 30 small and advanced reactor vendors through initiatives such as the SMR Competition (March 2016 – December 2017) and the ongoing Advanced Modular Reactor (AMR) Feasibility and Development Project.</p><p> </p><p>The sizes of individual reactor modules range from 4MWe – 465 MWe. Many vendors are designing reactors with the intention of multiple modules being deployed together, scaling up the generation output of an installation. This includes proposals for modular reactor power stations with the potential outputs around 1GWe. The reactor technology types range from conventional water-cooled reactors, to 4th generation reactors using novel fuels and coolants, as well as fusion reactor concepts.</p> answering member printed Lord Henley question first answered 11/02/2019 15:36:51 answering member 2616 label Biography information for Lord Henley
