answer text <p>We have no plans to further restrict the location of sale of alcohol. The Licensing Act 2003 regulates the sale and supply of alcohol. The Act already allows individual premises and licensing authorities to introduce appropriate safeguards as they deem necessary. Licensing authorities consider applications on a case-by-case basis and can impose conditions on the terms of a license, for example limiting hours of sale, as they deem appropriate.</p><p>The Government takes a wide-ranging approach to addressing alcohol harms, including through commitments in the landmark 10-year drug strategy and NHS Long Term Plan, for example an ambitious programme to establish specialist alcohol care teams in the 25% hospitals with the highest rates of alcohol dependence-related admissions, alcohol-mortality, and deprivation.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Local authorities are best placed to understand the housing needs in their area. We expect them to work closely with key partners and their local communities in deciding what type of housing is needed.</p><p>National policy sets out clearly the need for local authorities to plan for the housing needs of all members of the community and that planning should encourage accessibility. The introduction of optional requirements for accessibility in the Building Regulations provides local authorities with the tools needed to ensure that new homes are accessible and that in particular the needs of disabled people are met.</p><p>At the same time as introducing these new optional requirements, we amended planning guidance to provide further advice on how they should be applied through local planning policy. We also published a data sheet setting out information and statistics on older and disabled peoples’ needs to act as a starting point for local authorities wishing to develop suitable policies.</p><p>An impact assessment supporting implementation of the Housing Standards Review estimated, for appraisal purposes, an indicative rate of construction of accessible housing in the period 2015 to 2025 - the impact assessment and accompanying documents can be found at the link below;</p><p>https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/housing-standards-review-final-implementation-impact-assessment.</p>
