answer text <p>We recognise that better provision of defibrillators, and increasing the number of people trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, could help save more lives of those who have a cardiac arrest outside a hospital setting. Therefore, we encourage organisations to consider purchasing a defibrillator as part of their first-aid equipment, particularly where there are high concentrations of people.</p><p> </p><p>In order to further support the National Health Service and local communities, the Government has provided £2 million to make public access defibrillators more widely available and to increase the numbers of people trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Government has an ambitious programme to bring brownfield land back into use in England and is working closely with local authorities to drive this forward. In April 2017 we introduced a requirement for local planning authorities to publish a statutory brownfield land register by the end of 2017 which will identify which previously developed sites are suitable for housing. We are currently working with representative organisations for local government to ensure local planning authorities have these brownfield land registers in place. In addition, there is continuing engagement with local authorities on a range of other programmes, including the designation of 26 Housing Zones on brownfield land, and our £1.2 billion Starter Homes Land Fund to bring forward suitable brownfield land for starter homes and other types of affordable home ownership products.</p><p /><p /> more like this

answer text <p>We have not undertaken a specific assessment of the level of pollution produced by equipment and vehicles operating on building sites in town and city centres. Our annual emission statistics set out pollution by source, including from manufacturing industries and construction. The latest statistics to 2015 are available at: <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/emissions-of-air-pollutants" target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/statistics/emissions-of-air-pollutants</a>.</p><p> </p><p>Machinery used on building sites is likely to be classed as non-road mobile machinery (NRMM). The UK Government has been actively involved in developing new legislation for NRMM at a European level. In January this year, new legislation came into force with more stringent emission limits for major air pollutants from engines used in NRMM. This extends the scope of existing legislation to cover all sizes of petrol and diesel engines used in NRMM and improves the legal framework. The new emission standards are mandatory for new engines being sold, for the first tranche of categories, from January 2019.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p>The political and human rights situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is deeply concerning. The UK has supported the adoption of EU sanctions against individuals responsible for obstructing the democratic process in the DRC and who have committed human rights violations in the Kasai region and elsewhere. Should there continue to be no progress towards full implementation of the 31 December agreement and a continuation of the human rights violations taking place across that country, including in the Kasais, the UK would support further pressure on those responsible. While action by the UN Security Council is one option, we would also consider further EU sanctions, if required.</p> more like this
