The Department has been leading a programme of voluntary action by industry to rebalance their advertising and promotion, including by offering the healthier option as a default so that their customers can choose to follow a healthy, balanced diet.<\/p>
<\/p>
For example, major retailers such as Lidl and Tesco have committed to remove sweets and confectionery from all of their checkouts. The Department continues to encourage more partners to follow this example, and through programmes like Change4life promotes such action.<\/p>

Improving support for carers of all ages is a priority for this Government. The Department for Education has provided over £2.7 million of funding to The Children\u2019s Society and Carers Trust over four years between 2011 and 2015 to work with local authorities and voluntary and community organisations. This has helped to promote \u2018whole family\u2019 approaches to supporting young carers and identify and share existing good practice.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
We have also made significant changes to the law relating to young carers that will take effect from April 2015. Section 96 of the Children and Families Act 2014 delivers four things: it consolidates and simplifies the legislation relating to young carers\u2019 assessments, making rights and duties clearer to both young people and practitioners; it extends the right to an assessment of needs for support to all young carers under the age of 18 regardless of who they care for, what type of care they provide or how often they provide it; it makes it clear to local authorities that they must carry out an assessment of a young carer\u2019s needs for support on request or when the need becomes apparent; and it provides the appropriate links between children\u2019s and adults\u2019 legislation to enable local authorities to align the assessment of a young carer with an assessment of the person they care for.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
These changes will work with provisions in the Care Act that also support the combining of children\u2019s and adults\u2019 assessments, and the draft guidance on a whole family approach to assessing and supporting adults. Together they will provide a clear legislative framework that will support local authorities to consider the needs of the whole family, deliver coordinated packages of support and protect children and young people from excessive or inappropriate caring roles.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The legislative changes outlined above only affect young carers in England. The Department for Education has not discussed them with the Northern Ireland Executive.<\/p>

Sport England is investing £1.1 million in British Shooting for 2013-17 to get more people taking part in shooting regularly.<\/p>

According the Active People Survey, 54,300 people take part in clay pigeon shooting in England at least once a month. This is an increase of 3,800 since 2012. It is the most popular shooting discipline in England.<\/p>
