answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2020 answer text <p>In the last three years, the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) has received 49,901 applications to change a vehicle’s body type to motor caravan, of which, 32,199 were approved. The body type descriptor held on the vehicle record must describe what a vehicle looks like in traffic. It is not linked to the use of the vehicle, its insurance cover or speed restrictions. The body type descriptor is used purely to provide the police and other enforcement agencies with a description of the vehicle being driven in traffic.</p><p>For those applications where the body type is unable to be changed to “motor caravan”, the vehicle can still be used for that purpose, provided any alterations made to the vehicle do not compromise its safety. The DVLA will allocate the most appropriate body type depending on the external appearance of the vehicle.</p> answering member constituency Redditch answering member printed Rachel Maclean question first answered 10/09/2020 13:38:12 answering member 4668 label Biography information for Rachel Maclean

However, newly established REACT teams, comprising education and social care staff from both this department and Ofsted, are working closely with local authorities and will be a valuable source of intelligence on the sufficiency of wraparound care places in local areas.</p><p>We are also encouraging schools to resume their breakfast and after-school club provision, where possible, from the start of the autumn term; and, as part of our guidance to schools on full opening, have provided them with guidance to support them in reopening this valuable provision, which is available at:<br><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/actions-for-schools-during-the-coronavirus-outbreak/guidance-for-full-opening-schools#wraparound-provision-and-extra-curricular-activity" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/actions-for-schools-during-the-coronavirus-outbreak/guidance-for-full-opening-schools#wraparound-provision-and-extra-curricular-activity</a>.</p><p>Schools should also be working closely with any external wraparound providers which their pupils may use, to ensure as far as possible, children can be kept in a group with other children from the same bubble they are in during the school day; and we have published further updated guidance for providers who run before and after-school clubs, tuition and other out-of-school settings for children on the protective measures that should be put in place from the start of the autumn term, to ensure they are operating as safely as possible when all children return to school.
