The UK Government is bringing in sustainability criteria for those supplying biomass under the RO and RHI. These were initially introduced as reporting requirements from April 2014, with the intention of bringing in mandatory criteria from April 2015. No data has yebeen published.<\/p>

In order to calculate the greenhouse gas saving of a fuel, suppliers are required to sum each of the emission components but are not required to report the component savings. It is the responsibility of generators to determine where in their supply chain the saving is made.<\/p>

Power suppliers using bioliquids have had to comply with the Renewable Energy Directive\u2019s sustainability criteria since 2011, which includes a 35% minimum greenhouse gas emissions saving. Ofgem reports on these emissions, the most recent figures are found in the Renewable Obligation annual report:<\/p>

The main mechanism of support for biomass1 power generation is the Renewables Obligation (RO). An estimate of support can be made by applying the share of RO certificates (ROCs) redeemed by suppliers, originating from biomass generation, to overall RO expenditure. This is given in the table below for 2011/12 to 2013/14.<\/p>

The Treasury has provided £4.2bn for EU Exit preparations, including the unlikely event of a \u2018no deal\u2019 scenario, consisting of: £700m for 2017-18; £1.5bn for 2018-19 announced at Autumn Budget 2017 and allocated at Spring Statement 2018; £1.5bn for 2019-20 announced at Autumn Budget 2017; and an additional £500m for 2019-20 announced at Autumn Budget 2018.<\/p>

This funding represents a clear commitment from the Government to ensure departments and the Devolved Administrations continue to have the necessary money to prepare effectively for a range of exit scenarios, including the unlikely event of a no deal scenario.<\/p>

The Devolved Administrations are receiving their share of additional funding in devolved areas through the Barnett Formula. For 2018-19 this means the Devolved Administrations are receiving almost £75m.<\/p>

The Department will be fulfilling its objectives within our Spending Review settlement, which provides funding through to March 2020.<\/p>

The Department does not record expenditure or forecasts against potential outcomes. It records expenditure and forecasts on a functional basis.<\/p>

Based on this, we are expecting to fulfill our Departmental objectives within our budget allocations up to March 2020.<\/p>

Academies, including free schools, university technical colleges and studio schools, have the freedom to set their own pay and conditions policies, and so are free to offer their teachers access to car purchase salary sacrifice schemes. Currently 15% of all primary schools and 62% of all secondary schools are academies.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

In local authority maintained schools, changes to the statutory pay and conditions of teachers must first be referred to the independent School Teachers\u2019 Review Body (STRB). Recent STRB referrals have focused on fundamental reforms to the overall pay and conditions framework for teachers. Following the STRB\u2019s recommendations, these reforms have given schools much greater freedom to attract and retain the best teachers and to reward individuals in line with their contribution to improving their pupils\u2019 achievements.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The demands on the STRB\u2019s time and resources in the reform process mean that the Government has had to make hard decisions on the issues it refers to STRB. In light of the focus of the important referrals above, we have not prioritised revisions to the existing salary sacrifice arrangements. However, the Government will consider whether the issue should be included in future referrals to the STRB.<\/p>

Police forces do not routinely have access to government data on benefit payments. If benefit data is required in order to assist with locating wanted
persons, it can be requested from the appropriate government department. Each request is carefully considered on a case-by-case basis to ensure compliance
with the relevant legislation, including the Data Protection Act 1998.

There is a memorandum of understanding between the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) for
disclosures that determine how the DWP provides data. All requests are managed through a central disclosure unit on a case-by case-basis. ACPO do not have
direct access to the data.<\/p>

The NHS Litigation Authority (NHS LA) indemnifies National Health Service organisations in England and many independent sector providers of NHS care against claims.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The NHS LA handles clinical negligence claims on behalf of its members under the Clinical Negligence Scheme for Trusts (CNST). Currently, all NHS trusts in England are members of the CNST.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The amounts paid by the NHS LA to patients under CNST in the last three years where NHS England is the legal defendant are contained in the table below:<\/p>

Before 2012, courts arranged interpreter contracts on an individual basis. The Government has taken steps to ensure the system provides value for taxpayers by agreeing a national contract. Demand for these services has grown as awareness increases amongst court and tribunal users. Since we introduced a new interpreting contract in 2012 we have spent £38.2m less on language service fees.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1496", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Shailesh Vara"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North West Cambridgeshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Shailesh Vara"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2015-06-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2015-06-16T16:55:40.567Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "54"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Justice"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2015-06-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "HM Courts and Tribunals Service: Translation Services"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how much HM Courts and Tribunal Service has spent on translators in each of the last three years for which figures are available.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1545", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for David T C Davies"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Monmouth"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "David T.

Large capital investment is planned for the GB electricity sector not only in the context of ageing plants, but upgrading network infrastructure, meeting decarbonisation objectives and maintaining security of supply. Between 2010 and 2013, we estimate over £45 billion private sector investment in electricity generation and networks. We have estimated further capital investment requirements to be up to £100bn between 2014 and 2020. We have not estimated the proportion of this investment that relates directly to replacing ageing plants.<\/p>

For DECC\u2019s most recent published estimates of the costs per MWh for a range of generation technologies, please refer to the levelised cost estimates published in the Electricity Generation Costs (December 2013) report which can be found at the link below.<\/p>

Under the CCS Commercialisation Programme, the Government is supporting the Peterhead and White Rose CCS projects to complete their detailed project designs. The companies involved are expected to make final investment decisions in late 2015, with Government taking a decision in the first quarter of 2016.
