answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/06/2015 answer text <p>Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (the CLP Regulation) is a single market measure that acts directly in all European Union (EU) Member States. Supporting guidance is provided at EU level by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA), in partnership with Member States. The guidance is routinely reviewed to ensure it reflects practical compliance experience and continues to support chemical suppliers both small and large.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The CLP regulation requires every Member State to establish a national CLP Helpdesk to provide compliance advice. The HSE acts as the UK CLP competent authority and, as part of this function, has provided the Helpdesk since 2009. It provides a suite of webpages that introduce the key duties in CLP, and steer visitors to the ECHA guidance. Additionally, the HSE will consider the feasibility of developing an on-line tool to help small businesses comply with the regulation.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Broxtowe answering member printed Anna Soubry question first answered 25/06/2015 13:44:43 answering member 3938 label Biography information for Anna Soubry

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/06/2015 answer text <p>Earlier this month, the Chancellor wrote to the Governor of the Bank of England seeking his advice on when and how the return of the Government’s stake in RBS to the private sector should be undertaken; in view of the wide range of implications for financial stability, growth, and achieving the best returns for the taxpayer.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>In his reply, the Governor stated that “it is in the public interest for the Government to begin now to return RBS to private ownership”, and warned that there could be considerable net costs to taxpayers of further delays to the start of a sale. This is also the conclusion of an independent review the Chancellor has commissioned on the issue, undertaken by Rothschild investment bank. The advice and the independent report have both been published online at www.gov.uk.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 18/06/2015 11:07:15 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/06/2015 answer text <p>The Chancellor has previously set out his objectives for the banks in state ownership, including Royal Bank of Scotland. We want to get the best value for money for the taxpayer; and we want to return them to private ownership. This policy is supported by recent advice from the Governor of the Bank of England that “it is in the public interest for the Government to begin now to return RBS to the private sector”, and that “there could be considerable net costs to taxpayers of further delaying the start of a sale”.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 18/06/2015 11:08:33 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
