This includes a range of monetisable and non-monetisable benefits and costs to ensure we capture all sources of potential economic value and cost. We will also want to consider carefully the impact of any of these options on students from disadvantaged backgrounds and those with disabilities in our assessments.<\/p>
This assessment is ongoing and is part of a wider, cross-government exercise on considering value for money of EU programmes.<\/p>
Ultimately, any decisions about our participation in the Erasmus+ programme will also be a matter for wider negotiations about our future relationship with the EU.<\/p>"}

There are strict rules in place that require commercial air transport operations to be operated by the holder of an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) and an Operating Licence (OL). It is an offence to operate a commercial air transport flight without an AOC or OL.<\/p>

Since 2016, the CAA\u2019s investigations and enforcement team has received 21 allegations of illegal public transport. The CAA investigates such allegations and will prosecute people where there is sufficient evidence, and where it is in the public interest to do so. The CAA also conducts spot check visits to airfields and public events where aeroplane and helicopter operations take place, and where it finds evidence that a flight may have operated illegally it has the power to detain an aircraft and, where appropriate, take enforcement action.<\/p>"}

The official \u2018waste from households\u2019 recycling rate for 2017 is 45.7% for the UK and 45.2% for England.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government does not have published \u2018waste from households\u2019 recycling rates for individual local authorities. Instead another metric, \u2018households\u2019 recycling, is available, which has a slightly broader scope with some differences in the materials which are counted as recycling.<\/p>
<\/p>
The county council acts as the disposal authority, while the other councils are the collection authority.<\/p>
