Assets recovered under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (POCA) are distributed to operational agencies under the Asset Recovery Incentivisation Scheme (ARIS). Broadly, 50% of recovered assets are returned to operational agencies in England and Wales - including police, CPS and HM Courts Service \u2013 with the expectation that they will be reinvested in asset recovery or community projects. The Home Office share of recovered assets is a core part of its settlement under the Comprehensive Spending Review. It contributes to core expenditure programmes such as policing and the NCA.<\/p>
From 2011 to 2016, £307m of ARIS monies returned to operational partners was used to fund further asset recovery work, crime reduction and community projects.<\/p>
The Home Office is committed to publishing an annual report on asset recovery statistics, including the use of ARIS funds. The first of these was published in September 2017 and the second will be published in September 2018. This report does not include detailed information on specific projects.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1539", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wyre and Preston North"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Ben Wallace"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-07-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-07-27T13:37:53.237Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-07-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Drugs: Misuse"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what funding his Department spends from the proceeds of crime to support people affected by drug related harm.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4465", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Ronnie Cowan"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Inverclyde"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Ronnie Cowan"} ], "uin" : "166219"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/946757", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/946757/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
National Health Service providers (NHS trusts and foundation trusts) fund their spending via income received from NHS commissioners in return for the provision of healthcare services to their local population. They do not receive funding allocations via their sustainability and transformation partnership. They do receive payments from the Sustainability and Transformation Fund, which rewards NHS providers for achieving their own individual finance and performance targets. In 2017-18, East Cheshire NHS Trust received total payments of £6.9 million from this fund.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4095", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Barclay"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North East Cambridgeshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Stephen Barclay"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-09-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-09-04T13:17:33.68Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-07-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "East Cheshire NHS Trust"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what amount of revenue funding allocated to the East Cheshire NHS Trust for 2017-2018 under the Cheshire and Merseyside sustainability and transformation partnership process has been paid.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/483", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Maria Eagle"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Garston and Halewood"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Maria Eagle"} ], "uin" : "167138"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/946759", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/946759/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The off-payroll working rules (often known as IR35) ensure that individuals who work like employees pay broadly the same income tax and National Insurance contributions (NICs) as other employees, regardless of whether they work through a personal service company. These rules have been in place for nearly 20 years but non-compliance was widespread.<\/p>
<\/p>
In Finance Act 2017 the Government reformed the rules in the public sector. The reform introduced no new tax liability but moved responsibility for operating the rules to public authority engagers, including the BBC. Initial evidence suggests that the reform has been successful and more people are paying the right tax.<\/p>

The Department has not made an estimate of the average decline in battery efficiency in each year of a passenger vehicle\u2019s life. The Faraday Institute is the independent research vehicle for the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund\u2019s £246m Faraday Battery Challenge. Improving our understanding of the performance of lithium ion batteries over time in electrified vehicles is an important part of the Faraday Institute\u2019s role. That is why of the Institute\u2019s four \u2018Fast Start\u2019 projects, with up to £42 million in funding, two will look at improving our understanding of batteries: extending battery life and battery systems modelling.<\/p>

By 2019-20, we will be spending around £6 billion on childcare support \u2013 a record amount. This includes around £1 billion extra a year to deliver 30 hours of free childcare and fund the increase in hourly rates that we introduced in April 2017.<\/p>
Our average funding rates are based on the department\u2019s \u2018Review of Childcare Costs\u2019 which was described as \u2018thorough and wide ranging\u2019 by the National Audit Office. The review looked at both current and future cost pressures.<\/p>
More than 340,000 children have benefitted from our 30 hours offer over its first year, and the vast majority of providers have increased the number of free hours available to parents.<\/p>
We continue to monitor both the implementation of 30 hours and delivery costs. We have recently commissioned new research to provide us with further robust and detailed data of the costs of delivering childcare for under five year olds using a representative sample of early years providers.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4113", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stratford-on-Avon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Nadhim Zahawi"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-09-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-09-04T14:27:39.297Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-07-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Children: Day Care"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what recent assessment he has made of the adequacy of levels of government funding for the 30-hours free childcare policy.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1588", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Barbara Keeley"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Worsley and Eccles South"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Barbara Keeley"} ], "uin" : "167228"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/946768", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/946768/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The government set out in the 2015 Spending Review that we expect 390,000 children to be eligible for 30 hours free childcare. This figure is derived from national survey data taken in January and is an average across the year. Estimates at a regional and local authority level are not available due to the relatively small population that we are estimating within sub national geographies.<\/p>
We publish termly experimental statistics showing the number of children in a place. The most recent publication showed that 1,535 codes were issued in Salford and 1,550 children were in a 30 hours places in the summer term.
