answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/03/2016 answer text <p>The Treasury has engaged with industry to stress the importance of passing through wholesale cost reductions to consumers. The Treasury has produced internal studies to examine how far and how quickly the benefits of oil and price falls were fed through to consumers. We are pleased that recently the six major energy suppliers have announced cuts in their tariffs - it's a good start but there's more to do. The Government looks forward to the Provisional decision on remedies of the Competition and Markets Authority, due this month, and continues to monitor developments closely.</p> answering member constituency East Hampshire answering member printed Damian Hinds question first answered 10/03/2016 10:41:36 answering member 3969 label Biography information for Damian Hinds

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/03/2016 answer text <p>The Home Office has a rigorous contract compliance regime in place to ensure that the required performance standards expected of all providers, as defined in the contracts, are met. This includes monthly contract management and quarterly strategic review meetings, as well as regular daily discussions with COMPASS providers’ operational delivery managers about day to day issues. The Home Office investigates complaints it receives from service users and third parties and works with contractors to ensure that any issues raised are addressed promptly.</p><p>Performance against each key performance indicator (KPI) is measured and may, dependent upon the level of non-conformance, lead to the application of a KPI score. The overall/total score across all KPIs is then used to determine the value of Service Credit (rebate) which should be deducted from the monthly invoice. If an individual KPI is met, no score is accrued and no service credit applies. The following table indicates the amount of service credits recovered following KPI non-conformance for each of the COMPASS contracts from the start of the contracts.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p> </p></td><td><p><strong>2013-2014</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2014-2015</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2015-2016 (YTD)</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>TOTAL</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Serco SNI</strong></p></td><td><p>£773, 792</p></td><td><p>£156,156</p></td><td><p>£443, 545</p></td><td><p><strong>£1,373,493</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Serco NW</strong></p></td><td><p>£3,137, 017</p></td><td><p>£1,974</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p><strong>£3,138,991</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>G4S MEE</strong></p></td><td><p>£1,349, 475</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p><strong>£1,349, 475</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>G4S NEYH</strong></p></td><td><p>£368, 107</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p><strong>£368, 107</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>CRH WSW</strong></p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p><strong>0</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>CRH LSE</strong></p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p>0</p></td><td><p><strong>0</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>TOTAL</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>£5,628, 391</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>£158,130</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>£443, 545</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>£6,230,066</strong></p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 02/03/2016 15:20:37 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire previous answer version 47904 answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire
