Through the Prosperity Fund, the FCO has spent around £87,000 Official Development Assistance (ODA) on projects intended to improve the environmental regulation of shale gas development in China since 2016.<\/p>
The UK regulatory regime for Shale gas is considered among the most robust and stringent in the world. Sharing UK expertise within the UK oil and gas sector, including on environmental regulation, can help ensure that the exploration or development of resources like natural gas is done to a high standard and is managed as part of a transition to low carbon energy system, as well as supporting economic development and poverty reduction<\/p>

The Fund\u2019s energy related initiatives do not directly finance oil and gas exploration or production. They aim to help create policy and business environments that improve energy access, strengthen energy markets, encourage investment and promote energy efficiency.

The annual and lifetime allowances limit the amount by which an individual can grow their pension tax-free each year and in total. There is emerging evidence that pension tax may be a factor in doctors deciding to retire early or limit their National Health Service commitments. There are of course other factors, such as workload.<\/p> The Government is alive to the issues raised by senior clinicians, and keeps the impact of public sector pay and pensions policies under constant review, taking account of total reward and fiscal considerations.<\/p> The following table shows the number of hospital doctors and GPs claiming their NHS Pension on a voluntary early retirement basis from the 1995 NHS Pension Scheme.<\/p> Scheme Year<\/p><\/td> Hospital Doctors<\/p><\/td> GPs<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2011-12<\/p><\/td> 315<\/p><\/td> 513<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2012-13<\/p><\/td> 387<\/p><\/td> 591<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2013-14<\/p><\/td> 406<\/p><\/td> 746<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2014-15<\/p><\/td> 453<\/p><\/td> 739<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2015-16<\/p><\/td> 494<\/p><\/td> 695<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2016-17<\/p><\/td> 490<\/p><\/td> 721<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2017-18<\/p><\/td> 424<\/p><\/td> 588<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>"}
