We are aware of the report.

Since March 2018, the UK has provided interpreters to work with the Greek Reception and Identification Service, supporting migrants arriving on the hotspot islands, including through facilitating access to medical and psycho-social care.

This is a routine update of the DA building on the version published in 2017. The intention is to produce a more simplified version of the DA with an emphasis on plain English. The DA continues to provide clarity on roles and responsibilities between HS2 Ltd and DfT to reflect the growing maturity of the programme and as the project moves from development to delivery. This revised DA provides clarifications and amendments to, for example, the Land and Property section where the concepts of Core Land, Additional Land, Management Land and Operation & Maintenance Land are set out. It amends the role for HS2 Ltd associated with the shadow operator functions transferring to the West Coast Partnership and changes the Performance Remedies Regime. Other areas of change include:<\/p>
The section of the HS2 line between Euston and Old Oak Common stations is a DfT Sponsor\u2019s Requirement and as such is funded from the HS2 Phase One funding envelope. Where third parties such as local authorities and transport bodies have requests for additional requirements or scope beyond the DfT Sponsor\u2019s Requirements, HS2 Ltd is delegated to consider incorporation of these requests, subject to an appropriate funding agreement with the relevant third parties.<\/p>
