The Government does not make assessments of bank branch closures. However, in the event of a closure of a core cash service, for example a bank branch, LINK provides an assessment of a community\u2019s cash access needs. It keeps an updated record of these assessments on its website as part of its overview of branch closures announced by banks since January 2022, alongside any banking hubs or deposit services recommended.<\/p>

<\/p>

Decisions on opening and closing branches are taken by the management team of each bank on a commercial basis, with which the Government does not interfere.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4580", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Vere of Norbiton"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Vere of Norbiton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2023-12-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2023-12-19T14:52:52.79Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2023-12-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Banks: Closures"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask His Majesty's Government how many branches of (1) Barclays, (2) NatWest, (3) Lloyds Bank, and (4) HSBC, in the UK have closed in 2023 so far; and what were the corresponding figures for 2022.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/547", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Wigley"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Wigley"} ], "uin" : "HL896"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1675731", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Cabinet Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1675731/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Rt Hon. the Lord Wigley<\/p>

House of Lords<\/p>

London<\/p>

SW1A 0PW<\/p>

11 December 2023<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

Dear Lord Wigley,<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

As National Statistician and Chief Executive of the UK Statistics Authority, I am responding to your Parliamentary Question asking for the latest annual figures for gross value added per head of population for (1) England, (2) Wales, (3) Scotland, and (4) Northern Ireland (HL898)<\/strong>.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

The latest available annual figures are for the calendar year 2021, published on 25 April 2023 as part of the regional economic activity by gross domestic product UK: 1998 to 2021 [1] release. Although the headline statistics in this release focus on gross domestic product (GDP), the published tables also include gross value added (GVA) estimates, which differ from GDP only in that they exclude the effect of taxes (less subsidies) on products.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

The GVA per head figures you have requested are as follows:<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

(1) England, £31,138 per person<\/p>

(2) Wales, £22,380 per person<\/p>

(3) Scotland, £27,361 per person<\/p>

(4) Northern Ireland, £24,007 per person<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

Yours sincerely,<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

Professor Sir Ian Diamond<\/p>
