While the process of granting an export licence is thorough, it does not consider the source of funds related to the movement of relevant goods.

The Government has noted the trend observed in external analysis and commentary of relative decreased investment from pension funds in UK companies.<\/p>
That is why the Chancellor has announced a landmark pensions review as a part of the Government\u2019s mission to boost economic growth and investment in the UK. Under plans unveiled by the new Chancellor, billions of pounds of investment could be unlocked in the UK economy from defined contribution schemes alone. Defined contribution schemes will be managing around £800 billion in assets by the end of the decade and the Review will explore ways to increase their investment into UK productive assets. The Review will also look at how to unlock the investment potential of the £360 billion within the Local Government Pension Scheme, which manages the savings of those working to deliver our vital local services, as well as how to tackle the £2 billion that is being spent on fees.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4559", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Livermore"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Livermore"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-08-07", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-08-07T10:14:36.767Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-07-30", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Pension Funds"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the proportion of UK pension funds invested in UK companies, and what steps they are taking to increase such investment.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4958", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for The Earl of Effingham"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "The Earl of Effingham"} ], "uin" : "HL495"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1724807", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1724807/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

A key outcome of the government\u2019s clean energy mission will be greater energy security and independence. The government recognises that oil and gas production in the North Sea will continue to play a role in our energy mix for decades to come. The government will achieve a phased and responsible transition by taking a proportionate approach that ensures the oil and gas sector continues to play a role whilst contributing more towards our clean energy transition.<\/p>

The Government is committed to protecting access to cash for individuals and businesses. The Financial Conduct Authority is the regulator responsible for access to cash further to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2023, with powers to seek to ensure the reasonable provision of cash withdrawal and deposit facilities for individuals and businesses, including free withdrawal services for individuals.<\/p>
The FCA published its final rules on access to cash on 24 July. Under its rules, designated firms will be required to undertake assessments of a community\u2019s cash needs following the closure of a service or a community request, and to put in a new service if necessary. These rules come into force on 18 September.<\/p>
