uin	209063
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/09/2014 answer text <p>The Funding for Lending Scheme (FLS) provides funding to banks and building societies for an extended period, with both the price and quantity of funding provided linked to their lending performance. There is no mechanical link between funding drawn from the scheme and lending activity in any particular nation, region or city. The decision on where, how much and to whom to lend remains a commercial decision for the bank or building society concerned. More generally, the FLS has been successful in helping to reduce bank funding costs to historic lows; and in providing strong incentives for participants to make loans cheaper and more easily available.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Ministers meet with various stakeholders to discuss a broad range of issues. It is not appropriate to reveal the detail of these discussions or to release any information exchanged which may pertain to the FLS. Barclays participated in the first phase of the FLS, which ran until January 2014, but are not participating in the Scheme’s extension. Barclays’ FLS data is publically available on the Bank of England’s website: http://www.bankofengland.co.uk/markets/Pages/FLS/default.aspx</p> answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom grouped question UIN 209064 209065 question first answered 23/09/2014 10:46:40 answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom
