The Government is investing up to £150m in the SuperConnected Cities Programme to support UK cities to develop the digital infrastructure capability required to remain internationally competitive.<\/p>

In addition there has also been a substantial increase in planned commercial infrastructure investment in urban areas including, BT committing an additional £50million to their commercial roll-out; Virgin Media investing to improve its superfast footprint by 100,000 premises and a range of other providers making investments in cities such as York, Coventry and Peterborough. These investments will benefit both businesses and domestic households. There is also the ongoing roll-out of 4G which will make a significant impact on connectivity in urban locations.<\/p>

The Government is also working to drive down costs of network delivery and has amended the planning regulations and Electronic Communications code supported the European Directive on measures to reduce broadband deployment costs and has a universal basic broadband commitment to ensure minimum service levels.<\/p>

When Government reviews outstanding coverage issues in urban locations after the closure of the SME voucher initiative in March 2015 we will be better placed to identify the most challenging areas and to consider the most appropriate and effective method of intervention at that time.<\/p>

From 1 October 2015, the Government intends that local authorities take over responsibility from NHS England, for commissioning public health services for children aged 0-5, including health visiting services.<\/p>

The Department is working collaboratively with its partners locally and nationally on the transfer of commissioning responsibilities. At local level, NHS England\u2019s area teams, as the local commissioners (not clinical commissioning groups), and local authorities are working to develop plans, including timescales, for a smooth and effective transfer of the commissioning role.<\/p>

The Government will mandate the delivery of the key child assessment elements of the Health Child Programme which are led by health visitors, healthcare professionals and their teams. This will allow for the service to be shaped locally, whilst ensuring there is universal coverage of the assessments in the context of a national, standard format (or specification) for the services, and hence that families can be confident they will receive health visiting support.<\/p>

The Department and its partners use a range of measures that support this transition and convey associated timescales and guidance. In particular, the service specification, \u201cPublic Health Functions to be exercised by NHS England\u201d, published in November 2013, sets out expectations for the commissioning and provision of services and how area teams can work with local authorities ahead of the transfer of commissioning responsibilities in 2015.<\/p>

Other mechanisms such as the forthcoming programme of regional 0 to 5 years commissioning transfer events, organised in conjunction with the Local Government Association, provide the means for local staff and key stakeholders to further develop their understanding of working together in respect of future arrangements for the provision of health visitor services.<\/p>

The Department's extant guidance document, Health Technical Memorandum (HTM) 03-01: Specialised ventilation for healthcare premises sets out guidance for minimum standards with respect to ventilation strategy with healthcare premises. HTM 03-01 was published just prior to the publication of BS EN 13779:2007. This will be updated to reflect current standards when it is reviewed. HTM 03-01 forms part of the list of guidance currently under consideration for review.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Healthcare premises will currently utilise the guidance provided within HTM 03-01 to assist in the determination of indoor air quality standards. The hospital will select the relevant primary and secondary filtration dependent upon the air quality of the local environment and upon the requirements of the clinical area that is served by the air-handling unit in question to ensure the safety of patients and staff. HTM 03-01 (paragraph 4.132) acknowledges that in areas of higher atmospheric pollution higher standards of filtration may be required. A copy of HTM 03-01 has already been placed in the Library and is available from the gov.uk website:<\/p>

The Government does not license, monitor, or levy penalties on communications providers operations in the UK. The UK, through Ofcom, operates a general authorisation regime that requires communications providers (including internet broadband providers operating in Northern Ireland) to meet a range of general and specific conditions that entitle them to operate in the sector. Communications providers are also required to abide by consumer protection law. In instances, where there is dispute concerning a company fulfilling its contractual duties, consumers can seek independent resolution through one of the Ofcom accredited schemes (CISAS, or the Ombudsman Services) of which all communications providers must be a member. Ofcom holds enforcement powers with respect to both the general authorisation regime and consumer protection law and can take action should it consider it appropriate to. There is no evidence that the enforcement regime is proving ineffective and requires amending.<\/p>

Officials from the Department for Transport and Her Majesty\u2019s Treasury are in regular contact on the development of proposals to change the duty rate for methanol.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

These changes will provide businesses with the tax certainty they need to invest in alternatively fuelled commercial vehicles and improve air quality. The reduced rate will apply to methanol composed of 95% pure methanol, and 5% water.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Draft legislation will be published at the Autumn Statement for further consultation, including with representatives from the fuel industry and motor manufacturers.<\/p>
