answer text <p>The Government has a long-established Ash Dieback Health and Safety Taskforce comprising the Forestry Commission, Natural England and key stakeholders such as the National Trust, Woodland Trust, Tree Council, CLA, Arboricultural Association, Highways Agency, Network Rail and ten Local Authorities, which meets regularly and guides our approach on reducing the impact of ash dieback on public health and safety.</p><p> </p><p>Working with the Health and Safety Taskforce, we estimate that there are approximately four million ash trees situated alongside roads, of which a large proportion (approximately 1.4 million) will need to be managed. The costs of felling a tree can vary considerably, and we have used case study examples to help inform assessments – these examples range from £400-£500. A strategic approach to planning and coordination can help reduce costs, and to support Local Authorities and other regional bodies dealing with ash dieback, Defra has worked with the Tree Council to develop an Ash Dieback Toolkit. The Government has recently announced a new Tree Health pilot, which is designed to support action against pests and diseases affecting trees, the pilot includes support for diseased and infested trees outside of woodland, for example roadside ash with ash dieback.</p>

answer text <p>A comprehensive analysis of local provision needs for Newton Rigg and the surrounding area was undertaken in 2020 by the Further Education Commissioner and the Education and Skills Funding Agency. The core objective of this analysis was to establish if there was a need for college provision within the general vicinity of Newton Rigg campus. It considered the location of neighbouring further education colleges in relation to travel to learn options and identified that the majority of enrolments could be accommodated at other statutory further education institutions. Where gaps in provision were identified, alternative arrangements for the next academic year have been introduced to ensure continuity of delivery after Newton Rigg closes.</p><p>If further evidence of gaps in provision are highlighted as a result of the closure of Newton Rigg in support of local authorities’ statutory duty to secure provision in an area, the Education and Skills Funding Agency will consider requests to fill a gap in provision. Where this cannot be met through negotiation with good existing providers the requirements are put out to tender through open competition.</p><p>We routinely consider the legal implications of decisions that are made.</p><p>Officials from the Education and Skills Funding Agency continue to work closely with the Further Education Commissioner’s team with regard to the closure of Newton Rigg.</p>

answer text <p>The information requested falls within the responsibility of the UK Statistics Authority. I have asked the Authority to reply.</p><p> </p><p>Dear Lord Inglewood,</p><p>As National Statistician and Chief Executive of the UK Statistics Authority, I am replying to your Parliamentary Question asking what estimate has been made of people who are UK (1) citizens, and (2) residents who (a) have, or (b) are entitled to dual nationality of another EU member state<strong> (HL13401)</strong>.</p><p>The Office for National Statistics (ONS) publishes estimates of the UK population by country of birth and nationality based on the <em>Annual Population Survey</em> (APS)[1]. The latest estimates are for the year July 2017 to June 2018 and these show the number of British citizens resident in the UK was 59,216,000, with a confidence interval of plus or minus 364,000, and the citizens of other EU member states resident in the UK as 3,723,000, with a confidence interval of plus or minus 91,000 (all figures rounded to the nearest thousand).</p><p>In the 2011 census, ONS collected data about dual passport holders which is the closest approximation to dual nationality available. Table 1 below shows the numbers from the census. ONS has no data about entitlement to dual nationality.</p><p>Yours sincerely,</p><p><strong>John Pullinger</strong></p><p>[1]<a href="https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/internationalmigration/datasets/populationoftheunitedkingdombycountryofbirthandnationality" target="_blank">https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/internationalmigration/datasets/populationoftheunitedkingdombycountryofbirthandnationality</a></p>
