The National Planning Policy Framework makes clear that when setting parking standards for residential and non residential developments local authorities will need to take into account the need to ensure an adequate provision of spaces for charging plug-in and other ultra-low emission vehicles. It also makes clear that applications for development should be designed to enable charging of plug-in and other ultra-low emission vehicles in safe, accessible and convenient locations.

<\/em>The Government is consulting on whether to introduce new building regulations requirements to set a minimum standard for the provision of electric vehicle chargepoints in the following circumstances, where the building has associated car parking<\/p>

- when constructing a new building
- when undergoing major renovation of a residential building
- for existing non-residential buildings<\/p>

Defra recognises the role of blue carbon ecosystems including seagrasses, to remove carbon from the atmosphere and store it for long periods of time as well as providing multiple other benefits such as storm protection, improving water quality, and benefiting biodiversity and fisheries.<\/p>

Our Marine Climate Change Impacts Partnership have assessed how seagrass habitats can be managed and protected in a changing climate (mccip-seagrass report card<\/a>).<\/p>

Public Health England (PHE) does not collect data on community-acquired Clostridium difficile infections (CDI). However, PHE collects data on community-onset CDI. Community-onset CDI are those cases occurring without or within two days of a hospital admission.<\/p>

In approximately half of the community-onset CDI cases (50.1% or 3,706/399 cases), the patient was either admitted to hospital at the time of the first positive sample or admitted shortly afterwards.<\/p>

It should be noted that this information is in part reliant on completion of an optional data field and therefore ascertainment may not be optimal. PHE does not collect information on the reasons of the patient being admitted to the hospital. Therefore, in some cases the admission to hospital may have been for other reasons than the CDI.<\/p>

If livestock move on to a farm the standstill rule requires the farmer to retain all livestock on their farm, in most instances for six days, before being able to move any of them off again. There are a number of exemptions such as moves to slaughter. The aim is to find the balance between reducing the risk of undetected disease spread and the need to trade.<\/p>

In 2018, officials discussed the rule with representatives of the industry. It was agreed that a review of the rule would need to await the delivery of the new Livestock Information Service (LIS) as this will be a key source of movement data. The LIS will replace the current separate species movement reporting services in England. Delivery is planned to commence in late 2020 and should take approximately 2 years. Any consequent proposals to change the standstill arrangements will be assessed on an epidemiological risk basis and will be subject to public consultation.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3934", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for George Eustice"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Camborne and Redruth"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "George Eustice"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-10-02", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-10-02T15:33:52.31Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "13"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-09-24", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Livestock: Transport"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what plans she has to review the six day standstill rule.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4607", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Stephanie Peacock"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Barnsley East"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Stephanie Peacock"} ], "uin" : "290439"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1145450", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1145450/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

It is illegal to sell knives and certain articles with blade or point to anyone under 18 in England and Wales, by virtue of the Criminal Justice Act 1988. To go further in preventing the sale of knives to under 18s, the Offensive Weapons Act 2019 includes a provision that will stop knives from being sent to residential addresses after they are bought online, unless the seller has arrangements in place with the delivery company to ensure that the product would not be delivered into the hands of a person under 18.<\/p>

The definition of knife in the Criminal Justice Act includes any other article which has a blade or which is sharply pointed and made or adapted for use in causing injury to a person. These words carry their normal meaning and we expect retailers to act responsibly and to consider carefully whether an item could commonly be defined as a knife.<\/p>

If the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the UK will become a \u2018third country\u2019 under EU data protection law. Subsequently, personal data transfers from the EU/EEA to the UK will become restricted and require additional legal safeguards. Any organisation that receives personal data from the EU/EEA should review their contracts and, where absent, include appropriate legal safeguards to ensure they can continue to receive personal data from the EU/EEA. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are the most common legal safeguard and will be the relevant mitigation for most organisations<\/p>


All businesses and organisations that receive personal data from the EU will need to take action, in conjunction with their EU/EEA partner. Receipt of personal data from the EU/EEA is not specific to any one sector or type of business - every organisation should review their data flows to determine whether they are affected<\/p>


The implementation cost for SCCs will vary between different organisation depending on a range of factors, notably the number of existing contracts that require SCCs to be added. Many businesses will already have contracts including SCCs with non-EU/EEA countries. For most organisations - including SMEs - taking the required action should not be excessively costly and does not always require specialist advice. The Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) has built a handy online tool to help businesses and organisations through every step of the process<\/p>


DCMS, with Whitehall partners, is undertaking an intensive engagement and communication effort with businesses and organisations across the UK and in the EU to highlight the need for action. The Department has worked with the Information Commissioner's Office to ensure that all available guidance is simple, straightforward and actionable and that businesses can produce the required SCCs online. There has been an increase in awareness of the changes that need to be made to prepare businesses and organisations for the possibility of a no-deal exit and this campaign will continue as a Government priority.<\/p>

If the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the UK will become a \u2018third country\u2019 under EU data protection law. Subsequently, personal data transfers from the EU/EEA to the UK will become restricted and require additional legal safeguards. Any organisation that receives personal data from the EU/EEA should review their contracts and, where absent, include appropriate legal safeguards to ensure they can continue to receive personal data from the EU/EEA. Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) are the most common legal safeguard and will be the relevant mitigation for most organisations<\/p>


All businesses and organisations that receive personal data from the EU will need to take action, in conjunction with their EU/EEA partner. Receipt of personal data from the EU/EEA is not specific to any one sector or type of business - every organisation should review their data flows to determine whether they are affected<\/p>


The implementation cost for SCCs will vary between different organisation depending on a range of factors, notably the number of existing contracts that require SCCs to be added. Many businesses will already have contracts including SCCs with non-EU/EEA countries. For most organisations - including SMEs - taking the required action should not be excessively costly and does not always require specialist advice. The Information Commissioner\u2019s Office (ICO) has built a handy online tool to help businesses and organisations through every step of the process<\/p>


DCMS, with Whitehall partners, is undertaking an intensive engagement and communication effort with businesses and organisations across the UK and in the EU to highlight the need for action. The Department has worked with the Information Commissioner's Office to ensure that all available guidance is simple, straightforward and actionable and that businesses can produce the required SCCs online. There has been an increase in awareness of the changes that need to be made to prepare businesses and organisations for the possibility of a no-deal exit and this campaign will continue as a Government priority.<\/p>
