Local authorities are responsible for deciding on the educational placement of a child or young person with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan, following the statutory process set out in the Children and Families Act 2014.<\/p>

<\/p>

In January 2023 local authorities reported that they had placed 19,346 children and young people with EHC Plans in special educational needs (SEN) units and resourced provision, and 143,458 in maintained special schools.<\/p>

<\/p>

The department is providing local authorities with over £1.5 billion of High Needs Provision Capital Allocations for the 2022/23 and 2023/24 financial years. This funding supports local authorities in delivering new places and improving existing provision for children and young people with SEN and disabilities or who require alternative provision, including by developing new SEN units and resourced provision.<\/p>

<\/p>

This funding forms part of our transformational investment of £2.6 billion in new high needs provision between 2022 and 2025, and is on top of our ongoing delivery of new special and alternative provision free schools.<\/p>

The Government has fundamentally reformed regulation of the consumer credit market. The transfer of regulatory responsibility for consumer credit from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) took effect in April. The FCA has stronger powers and is far better equipped to protect consumers than the OFT.<\/p>

<\/p>

Wonga has voluntarily agreed to pay compensation totaling more than £2.6m to around 45,000 customers in relation to unfair debt collection practices between 2008 and 2010. The requirement agreed by Wonga is available at http://www.fca.org.uk/your-fca/documents/requirement-notices/wonga-group-limited-vreq<\/a>. Had Wonga not agreed, the FCA could have used its powers to impose requirements. Wonga will appoint a skilled person (as specified under section 166 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) to ensure that affected customers receive appropriate compensation.<\/p>

<\/p>

More generally, the Government has ensured that the FCA has inherited the OFT's powers (both criminal and regulatory) in relation to misconduct which occurred before 1 April 2014, as well as considerably strengthening the FCA's powers in relation to misconduct which occurs under the new regulatory regime.<\/p>

<\/p>

The FCA has the same powers as the OFT had to investigate and prosecute offences under the Consumer Credit Act 1974.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The FCA has also inherited the OFT's power to fine, although the OFT's power to fine under the Consumer Credit Act was limited to fining a firm for breaches of a requirement imposed by the OFT (and the maximum penalty in this regard was £50,000). The Government has already strengthened the new regime by giving the FCA the ability to impose unlimited fines for breaches of regulatory requirements that take place after 1 April 2014.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4117", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrea Leadsom"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South Northamptonshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Andrea Leadsom"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-07-03", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "202688"} , {"_value" : "202724"} , {"_value" : "202725"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-07-03T15:49:59.6354425Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "CaTreasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-06-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Wonga"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what requirement will be placed on Wonga to track down the address of each customer due financial compensation for unfair and misleading debt collection practices.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/545", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Flynn"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newport West"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Paul Flynn"} ], "uin" : "202726"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 3, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
