National Savings and Investments (NS&I) is a UK institution, operating from a number of sites within the UK and abroad. <\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

The powers governing NS&I products come from UK primary and secondary legislation. Only individuals with a UK bank account are eligible to buy NS&I products. In the event of independence, the current rules would prohibit individuals with only a Scottish bank account from buying NS&I products. <\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

Any changes to these rules would depend on negotiations between the UK and Scottish governments in the event of independence. Both governments have said that there can be no pre-negotiations on what the terms of independence might be before the referendum takes place.<\/strong><\/p>

<\/p>

The UK government believes that Scotland is better off as part of the UK, and the UK is better off with Scotland in it.<\/strong><\/p>

The Government takes the enforcement of NMW very seriously and HMRC enforce the national minimum wage legislation on behalf of the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) and has done so since the introduction of NMW in April 1999. It does that by investigating all complaints made about employers suspected of not paying the minimum wage, in addition carrying out targeted enforcement where it identifies a high risk of non-payment of NMW across the whole of the UK.<\/p>

<\/p>

HMRC does not capture complaints or the outcomes of its investigations by reference to Government regions, constituencies or county. Its management information relates to the work of teams who are multi-located. Additionally, because it resources to risk, work relating to a specific geographical area is not always done by the NMW team based in that area.<\/p>

<\/p>

Prior to 6 April 2009, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) issued penalty notices to those employers who failed to comply, within 28 days, with an enforcement notice. A new enforcement regime, introduced in April 2009, saw the introduction of automatic penalties for employers who are found to have underpaid their workers. Between 1st<\/sup> April 2013 and 28th<\/sup> February, HMRC has issued 561 penalties for non payment of national minimum wage, with a combined value of £671,524.<\/p>

In disposing of its assets the Homes and Communities Agency is guided by value for money principles; disposals are expected to be at market value for land and other assets in order to protect public investment. The Homes and Communities Agency are open to considering proposals for joint working that will promote development, economic activity and growth.<\/p>

These assets were bought by the national taxpayer and therefore the receipts are deployed nationally. Receipts are reinvested to help finance other Government housing and regeneration programmes, as well as fund a range of historic legal commitments and liabilities on land inherited by the Homes and Communities Agency from other bodies (including the liabilities left by the former Regional Development Agencies).<\/p>

I would add that neither combined authorities or Local Enterprise Partnerships have responsibility for housing; we should avoid \u2018function creep' which would dilute their focus and/or centralise and take power away from local councils (both as local housing authorities and as local planning authorities).<\/p>
