The Welsh Government and the UK Government have concurrent powers to promote international trade and inward investment. UK Trade & Investment (UKTI) has lead UK responsibility for the provision of support and assistance to new and existing exporters of goods and services both at home and overseas. The Welsh Government is responsible for devising and implementing additional programmes to meet the particular needs of companies in Wales.<\/p>

<\/p>

UKTI works closely with the Welsh Government's trade and Investment team who deliver services on the ground in Wales. Companies in Wales therefore have access to the support provided both by Welsh Government and UKTI.<\/p>

<\/p>

UKTI uses its Performance and Impact Monitoring Surveys (PIMS) to measure the performance and impact of its support across the UK. The PIMS evidence is periodically complemented by independent impact evaluations. For the most recent example please see:<\/p>

<\/p>

https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/uk-trade-investment-performance-and-impact-monitoring-survey<\/a><\/p>

<\/p>

Whilst it is for the Welsh Government to ensure that the support they provide is monitored effectively, UKTI meets with them regularly to discuss progress and issues arising, at chief executive level, at director level and through ongoing discussions at operational level, both through UKTI headquarters and the Investment Services Team that carries out inward investment on its behalf. Following a request for support in developing their capability, UKTI provided a secondment to the Welsh Government to support their work.<\/p>

The Government believes that the consumer is best served by the operation of open competition between companies, and does not generally intervene to regulate what businesses may or may not charge consumers for goods or services. Pricing policies such as these are commercial decisions for the trader, and are best left to the market. However, if there's evidence of collusion that is harming consumers, this should be provided to the Competition and Markets Authority, as the UK's independent competition authority, who will consider it for investigation in line with their prioritisation principles.<\/p>

Ministers and officials in the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills meet with officials from Ofcom, the independent regulator for postal services, on a regular basis to discuss a broad range of market issues. There have not been any specific discussions about regulatory changes to the universal service.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The minimum requirements for the universal postal service, which includes among other things, the 6 day a week postal service to all addresses in the UK \u2013 rural and urban \u2013 at an affordable and uniform rate, are enshrined and protected in primary legislation \u2013 the Postal Services Act 2011. These minimum requirements can only be changed by Government with the approval of both houses of Parliament.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

This Government has no plans for making any changes to the minimum requirements.<\/p>

Targeted initiatives to encourage manufacturing in Scotland are a devolved matter for the Scottish Government. However we are taking steps to strengthen manufacturing capability across the UK. These include support for innovation and technology commercialisation through the High Value Manufacturing Catapult, help for businesses seeking to tap into opportunities in foreign markets, and in January 2014, Reshore UK was set up to assist UK manufacturers looking to win back production and jobs from overseas.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

We are taking action to increase manufacturing investment. In the 2014 Budget, my Rt Hon Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer doubled the annual investment allowance to £500,000 until the end of 2015. 100% first year capital allowances in enterprise zones will also be extended for three years to 31 March 2020.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

We are also helping energy intensive industries by compensating them for indirect costs of the carbon price floor and EU ETS extending beyond 2015-16. EIIs will also be compensated for the Renewable Obligation and Feed In Tariffs from 2016-17.<\/p>

The criteria for determining when Disabled Student Allowances (DSAs) will contribute to the cost of higher specification or higher cost computers will be set out in guidance that will be published alongside the appropriate regulations in the autumn. Support under DSAs will continue to be available if the need for a higher specification or higher cost computer is by virtue of the student's disability, rather than how the course is being delivered by the Higher Education Institution (HEI). If access to a higher specification or higher cost computer is essential to all students on that course, regardless of whether they are disabled or not, then provision of such computers would be a matter for the HEI.<\/p>

Higher education institutions are independent and autonomous organisations and are already subject to the strong legal requirements in the Equality Act 2010. They have clear duties to ensure that disabled students do not face discrimination whilst applying to, and studying in higher education. Where an individual believes they have been discriminated against and a dispute occurs, there are already well established processes in place for raising a formal complaint, initially through the university's internal complaints procedure and then, if unresolved after completing that process, the Office of the Independent Adjudicator (OIA).<\/p>
