answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/05/2014 answer text <p>There is a strong consensus in the global scientific community that nuclear energy represents one of the lowest carbon forms of baseload electricity generation.</p><p> </p><p /> <p>The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that the life cycle emissions associated with the generation of electricity from nuclear power groups are 16g CO<sub>2</sub> per kWh electricity produced. This is very low compared to the equivalent figure for electricity produced by natural gas turbines, which is in excess of 400g CO<sub>2</sub>/kWh, and similar to the IPCC's estimate for widespread non-baseload form of electricity generation, such as wind.</p><p /> <p> </p><p /> <p>The Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology report ‘Carbon Footprint of Electricity Generation' states that the operation of the nuclear power station accounts for less than 1% of the total life cycle emissions of nuclear electricity generation.</p><p /> <p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Witney answering member printed Mr David Cameron question first answered 06/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 1467 label Biography information for Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/05/2014 answer text <p>The Secretary of State for Education has received no representations on extending the powers provided to the National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL) for investigation of historical incidents of abuse.</p><p>The NCTL's remit sits within a broad safeguarding framework. The investigation of incidents of abuse by the NCTL historically or current will depend on the nature of the abuse. Where incidents of abuse relate to issues of child protection these would not ordinarily be matters that the NCTL would be directly involved in.</p><p>All employers of people working with children have a statutory duty to refer to the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) all individuals who have been:</p><ol><li>convicted or cautioned for a relevant offence;</li><li>engaged in conduct that has harmed a child or put them at risk of harm; or</li><li>deemed to have satisfied the ‘harm test' in relation to children, i.e. there has been no relevant conduct but a risk of harm to a child still exists.</li></ol><p>The DBS will then consider whether to bar that person from working with children. Alongside this duty, where a teacher has been dismissed or resigned in the face of dismissal for a serious conduct matter, employers have a statutory duty to consider referring that teacher to the NCTL. In circumstances where the DBS decides to bar an individual any ongoing NCTL case would be discontinued. The NCTL primarily takes to a conclusion cases which have not met the DBS threshold for barring.</p> answering member constituency Crewe and Nantwich answering member printed Mr Edward Timpson question first answered 06/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 1605 label Biography information for Edward Timpson

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/05/2014 answer text <p>Since 2010 the Government has committed nearly £2 billion to maintain, modernise and protect a Post Office network of at least 11,500 branches that meets strict access criteria that ensure fair and reasonable access to Post Office services, including in rural communities. For example, the access criteria require 99% of the population nationally to live within three miles of a post office outlet. The Post Office is the only retailer in the UK that meets these criteria. Furthermore, the Government has been consistently clear that there will be no programme of branch closures, and under this Government the Post Office network is at its most stable for a generation.</p><p> </p><p>The overwhelming majority of rural branches are owned and operated by private businesspeople known as subpostmasters who provide access to Post Office services under contractual arrangements. Subpostmasters are responsible for employing the staff required to deliver Post Office services.</p> answering member constituency Cardiff Central answering member printed Jenny Willott question first answered 06/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 1497 label Biography information for Jenny Willott
