As the Spending Review process has not yet concluded, we are unable to comment in detail on specific future spending options. It remains in the UK's interest to use ODA to make the world healthier, safer and more prosperous and to continue to invest in strong health systems and reducing the global burden of malaria.</p> answering member constituency Aldridge-Brownhills answering member printed Wendy Morton question first answered 16/10/2020 13:13:42 answering member 4358 label Biography information for Wendy Morton

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/12/2022 answer text <p>On 6 December, the Department confirmed further details on how the £2 billion additional funding for schools announced in the 2022 Autumn Statement will be allocated in 2023/24.</p><p>£400 million will be allocated to Local Authorities’ high needs budgets, with the rest allocated to schools through a new grant, and to boost the pupil premium.</p><p>Mainstream schools will receive this additional funding through a new grant from April 2023, on top of the core funding allocations they receive via the National Funding Formula. The methodology for calculating allocations for schools via this new grant will largely mirror that of the 2022/23 Schools Supplementary Grant. The Department will publish further details and funding rates for the new grant before the end of December 2022.</p><p>For a typical primary school with 200 pupils, this new revenue equates to approximately £28,000 additional funding. It equates to approximately £170,000 for a typical secondary school with 900 pupils.</p><p>Local Authorities will be obliged to pass on increases comparable to that for mainstream schools to special and alternative provision schools, from the £400 million that will be allocated to their high needs budgets. The Department will confirm details on how this will work shortly.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 08/12/2022 13:41:28 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

	tabling member printed	Mrs Pauline Latham
	uin	102849
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/12/2022 answer text <p>The minimum per pupil funding levels (MPPLs) in the schools National Funding Formula have been set so that, in the 2023/24 financial year, every primary school will receive at least £4,405 per pupil, and every secondary school at least £5,715.</p><p>All schools, including schools funded by reference to the MPPLs, will also receive additional funding in the 2023/24 financial year, following the 2022 Autumn Statement. A typical 200 pupil primary school can be expected to receive approximately £28,000, on average. A typical 900 pupil secondary school can be expected to receive £170,000. The Department will announce further details on allocations shortly.</p><p>The MPPL values are compulsory in Local Authority funding formulae, which determine actual funding allocations for maintained schools and academies. Academy trusts have flexibilities over how the funding they are allocated in respect of their individual academies is then distributed across academies in their trust. This means that in some cases, an academy could receive a lower per pupil funding amount than the MPPL value. This may reflect, for example, activities that are paid for by the trust centrally, rather than by individual academies.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 08/12/2022 13:34:49 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/10/2015 answer text <p>We recognise that many community-led renewable projects rely on the feed-in tariff as a reliable source of income on which to build a business case for funding. However, we have actively engaged with community groups as part of our recent consultation on pre-accreditation and will do so further through targeted stakeholder events as part of the broader FITs review. In the FIT review consultation, we specifically seek views on whether the scheme might be focussed towards specific groups or sectors; we have also acknowledged that it may be possible to reintroduce pre-accreditation if the evidence submitted at consultation supports it.</p> answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom question first answered 12/10/2015 13:57:09 answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom
