The UK Infrastructure Bank (UKIB) has a mandate to tackle climate change and support regional and local economic growth across the UK. The Bank is operationally independent. The then-Chancellor wrote to the Bank on 18th March 2022 to provide it with a non-statutory strategic steer outlining the government's policy priorities for the institution and to provide additional clarity on its mandate.<\/p>
This strategic steer encouraged the Bank to develop strong relationships with the devolved administrations and their institutions to ensure it is able to effectively deliver its mandate across all four nations. This letter has been published and is available on gov.uk.<\/p>
In line with this strategic steer, the Bank is engaging with the Welsh Government and the Development Bank of Wales on its investment activities. Further details on the Bank\u2019s plans to work with devolved bodies is set out in its Strategic Plan which was published on 23rd June 2022.<\/p>"}

The SCAPE discount rate is used in the valuation of unfunded public service pension schemes to set employer contribution rates and is set by HM Treasury following a prescribed methodology. A consultation was published in June 2021 seeking views on the objectives for the SCAPE discount rate and the most appropriate methodology going forward.<\/p>
<\/p>
Following the consultation\u2019s publication, the Government ran engagement sessions to ensure stakeholders were given the opportunity to express their views. Meetings were also held with members of Scheme Advisory Boards from across the UK relating to each public service workforce, and views were sought from the Government Actuary. Most stakeholders have followed up with formal written responses.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government has received 51 responses from a broad range of respondents. These include individuals, trade unions and other member representative bodies, Scheme Advisory Boards, employers and employer representative bodies, actuarial and pensions specialists, and pensions administrators.<\/p>The consultation response will be published in due course."}

The government understands that people across the UK are worried about the rising cost of living and are seeing their disposable incomes decrease as they spend more on the essentials.<\/p>
<\/p>
In May, we announced over £15 billion of additional cost of living support, targeted at those with the greatest need. As a result, millions of vulnerable households will receive at least £1,200 of support this financial year, with the vast majority of households receiving at least £550. This package builds on the over £22 billion previously announced, meaning government support for the cost of living now totals over £37 billion this year, equivalent to 1.5% of GDP.<\/p>
<\/p>
As I have set out , the UK Government is urgently working to ensure the people of Northern Ireland receive the equivalent of the 26 May Energy Bills Support Scheme (EBSS) expansion announcement as soon as possible.<\/p>
<\/p>
The UK Government is working at pace to identify a route to deliver support and to set out the details linked to this commitment.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
We are supporting the most vulnerable households, by giving direct UK-wide support through one-off cost of living payments of £650 for households on means-tested benefits (with the first payments of £326 delivered from 14 July), £300 for pensioners households and £150 for individuals in receipt non-means tested disability benefits.<\/p>
<\/p>
The government is also providing £500m of further support through the Household Support Fund. The Barnett formula provides around £79m of this to the devolved administrations of which around £14m will go to Northern Ireland.<\/p>"}
