The Class 390 \u201cPendolino\u201d trains are owned by Angel Trains Limited and currently leased to West Coast Trains Limited, the operator of the West Coast franchise. It is a matter for the owner to determine the serviceable life of the train and to market them as necessary to meet the fleet strategy of future operators.<\/p>

The UK is one of four nations leading NATO\u2019s enhanced Forward Presence, providing the Framework Battalion in Estonia and a reconnaissance squadron in Poland, joining the US-led force there.

On 22 July 2016 Very Revd Charles Taylor announced his resignation from the Deanery of Peterborough with effect from 2 October 2016. His farewell service took place at the Cathedral on 1 October 2016. There has been no reason to review the appropriateness of procedures and practice relating to the resignation.<\/p>
In July the Bishop of Peterborough announced his decision to hold a formal Bishop\u2019s visitation of the cathedral to investigate and report on the financial management and the overall governance of the Cathedral. At the time the Bishop noted that \u201cThe Cathedral is going through a cash flow crisis. It is taking too long to pay some bills, and paying the staff at the end of the month has been a close thing twice recently.\u201d In response to requests from the Bishop and cathedral Chapter the Church Commissioners have provided advice, support, and financial backup to help the cathedral in this situation. Whilst some progress is being made, this week the Commissioners intend to increase the loan facility they have made available to the cathedral.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/312", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Caroline Spelman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Meriden"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Dame Caroline Spelman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-11-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-11-29T16:48:45.193Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "9"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Church Commissioners"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Church Commissioners"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-11-25", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Clergy: Peterborough"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the right hon.

Further to my Hon Friend, the then Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Transport\u2019s (Claire Perry) response of 27 June 2016 (UIN 40101), consultation on the Hendy report recommendations is now complete and the responses have been analysed. We have worked with Network Rail to develop a proposal for consideration and this is currently going through internal finance and legal clearance, and I hope to make an announcement shortly.
