question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of how the reduction of the plug-in vehicle grant will effect meeting their carbon reduction targets.
tabling member printed	Lord Jones of Cheltenham
uin	HL11620
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/12/2018 answer text <p>No such assessment has been made. The Plug-in Car Grant has helped the plug-in hybrid market become more established, and the Government will now focus its support on zero emission models like pure electric and hydrogen fuel cell cars. We want to see at least 50%, and as many as 70%, of new car sales being ultra low emission by 2030. This is in line with the Committee for Climate Change progress report. The Government will continue to work with industry to achieve our ambitions, and will review progress towards them by 2025.</p> answering member printed Baroness Sugg question first answered 04/12/2018 13:06:39 answering member 4584 label Biography information for Baroness Sugg

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/12/2018 answer text <p>The Prime Minister has been clear that free movement of people will end as we leave the EU.</p><p>In future it will be for the UK Government and Parliament to determine the domestic immigration rules that will apply. We are carefully considering a range of options for the future immigration system and we will make decisions based on evidence and engagement. This will help us design a new immigration system that works in the national interest. We will publish a White Paper on the future border and immigration system later this year.</p><p>But we recognise that mobility is a key element of economic, cultural and scientific cooperation. That is why we want to agree a reciprocal mobility framework with the EU that will support businesses to provide services and allow people to travel without a visa for temporary business activity.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 06/12/2018 16:48:51 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan

tabling member printed	Lord Jones of Cheltenham
uin	HL11624
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/12/2018 answer text <p>The Cooperative Accord on Culture and Education proposed in the White Paper demonstrates our undiminished commitment to supporting European culture. The Political Declaration is a significant step towards delivering on this proposal, setting out that the UK and EU will establish terms for UK participation in EU programmes in areas of shared interest, including culture and education, and wider dialogue and exchanges with a view to identify opportunities to cooperate, share best practice and act together.</p><p>The next generation of EU programmes are currently under negotiation in the EU. The Government will make decisions on participation in specific programmes in light of these negotiations and wider UK priorities. Where the UK does participate, the Political Declaration sets out that it should do so on the basis of a set of agreed terms and conditions. These terms ensure that the UK will make a fair and appropriate financial contribution, UK participants will be treated fairly, and that the UK will be included in management and consultation of the programme reflecting the level of UK involvement. Both sides will be able to ensure that programme funding is managed properly.</p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 06/12/2018 17:00:15 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/11/2018 answer text <p>We have made clear in the recent political agreement (published on 14 November) that the UK remains committed to continued cooperation with the EU on education. In the attached government white paper, ‘The future relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union[1]’, we also set out our desire to facilitate mobility for students and young people, enabling them to continue to benefit from world leading universities and the cultural experiences the UK and EU Member States – including France – have to offer.</p><p>With the caveat that “nothing is agreed until everything is agreed”, in principle the UK will continue to benefit from all EU programmes, including Erasmus+, until the end of the current budget plan, and applications should continue as normal. The UK is also open to exploring participation in the successor scheme to the current Erasmus+ Programme. We welcome the attached proposals for the 2021-2027 successor scheme to Erasmus+ (published on 30 May), and are considering these carefully; we will continue to participate in discussions on these proposals while we remain in the EU. Ultimately, UK participation in the successor programme is a matter for negotiations on our future relationship with the EU.</p><p>[1] The white paper can be found via this link: <a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/725288/The_future_relationship_between_the_United_Kingdom_and_the_European_Union.pdf" target="_blank">https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/725288/The_future_relationship_between_the_United_Kingdom_and_the_European_Union.pdf</a>.</p> answering member printed Viscount Younger of Leckie attachment 1 file name HL11572_The_future_relationship_between_the_United_Kingdom_and_the_European_Union.pdf title HL11572_The_future_relationship_between_UK_and_EU 2 file name HL11572_EC_Proposal_to_Establish_Erasmus.pdf title HL11572_Proposal_to_Establish_Erasmus question first answered 30/11/2018 14:14:15 answering member 4169 label Biography information for Viscount Younger of Leckie
