The thirteenth round of negotiations for the EU-US Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) took place between 20 and 24 April in New York. The next negotiating round is due to take place in July. We are making progress and our ambition remains to reach a political agreement during the Obama presidency.<\/p>

<\/p>

The UK is working for an ambitious agreement that removes remaining tariffs between the EU and US, cuts the regulatory and bureaucratic barriers faced by our exporters without lowering our standards, and opens up opportunities for our businesses to compete for public procurement. We want a deal that is good for businesses of all sizes and for consumers.<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition to the potential £10 billion annual benefit to the UK, TTIP provides an opportunity for the EU and US to shape the rules and standards for the global business environment.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3938", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Anna Soubry"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Broxtowe"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Anna Soubry"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-06-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-06-13T10:09:08.8Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "26"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Innovation and Skills"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Innovation and Skills"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-06-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, what recent progress has been made on the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership negotiations; and if he will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4478", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Royston Smith"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Southampton, Itchen"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Royston Smith"} ], "uin" : "40086"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/520627", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business, Innovation and Skills"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/520627/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) collects and publishes information on students at UK Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). Provider-level measures on the share of their students who have come from disadvantaged backgrounds are available as part of the UK Performance Indicators;<\/em> these include the proportion of young full-time first degree entrants who are from low participation neighbourhoods, otherwise known as POLAR3 quintile 1 wards. POLAR3 is an indicator of disadvantage in the absence of income information. The data is provided in the table:<\/p>

Official statistics are not sufficiently detailed to answer this question directly. However a rough estimate may be possible by combining sources.<\/p>

The ONS Business Registers and Employment Survey shows that the retail sector accounted for 10 \u2013 11% of employment in Southampton in each year between 2012 and 2014.<\/p>

Furthermore BIS Business Population Estimates suggest that across the UK as a whole small firms (those below 50 employees) account for around 29% of employment in the retail sector.<\/p>

Applying this assumption we could estimate that small retailers accounted for around 3% of employment in Southampton in 2012-2014.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3938", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Anna Soubry"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Broxtowe"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Anna Soubry"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-03-21", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-03-21T14:12:16.757Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "26"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Innovation and Skills"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Innovation and Skills"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-03-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Retail Trade: Southampton"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, if he will estimate the proportion of the working population in Southampton which was working in small retail outlets over the last three years.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4478", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Royston Smith"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Southampton, Itchen"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Royston Smith"} ], "uin" : "30844"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/461217", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business, Innovation and Skills"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/461217/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

We are taking significant steps to widen participation in higher education and ensure greater focus by institutions on employability.<\/p>

From the 2015/16 academic year, we have removed the cap on student numbers, enabling more people than ever before to benefit from higher education our recent Green Paper Fulfilling our Potential: Teaching Excellence, Social Mobility and Student Choice, CM 9141 <\/em>sets out additional steps the Government plans to take to increase the proportion of students from disadvantaged background entering higher education. In particular, the new Teaching Excellence Framework will encourage a stronger focus on employability in higher education institutions.<\/p>

Since 2010 we have established a stronger framework with increased responsibility placed on higher education institutions to widen participation for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. The Director of Fair Access has agreed 183 Access Agreements for 2016/17 containing an estimated £745m to support students from disadvantaged backgrounds \u2013 up from £404m in 2009/10. In our recent guidance to the Director of Fair Access, published on February 11th <\/sup>2016, we said that we wanted the Director to encourage institutions to undertake work to improve access to the professions for students from disadvantaged backgrounds. The Director has reflected this steer in his own guidance to institutions about their access agreements for 2017/18.<\/p>

In the field of medicine, the Medical Schools Council initiated the \u201cSelecting for Excellence\u201d project, supported by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills, to look at widening participation issues. A report was launched in December 2014 which set out a range of recommendations for the sector to take forward aimed at supporting access to medical schools.<\/p>
