question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact that the ending of the Supporting People programme has had on funding for floating support services for people recovering from, or at risk of, homelessness; and whether those services will be included in their planned review of housing-related support.
tabling member printed	Lord Bird
uin	HL12345
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2018 answer text <p>Supported housing is an invaluable service for vulnerable people across the country. In August, we announced that we will undertake a review of housing related-support, to help us better understand how housing and support fit together. The review will give us a fuller picture into how housing-related support is provided for supported housing across England.</p><p>The Government is committed to reducing homelessness and rough sleeping. No one should ever have to sleep rough. That is why this summer we published the cross-government Rough Sleeping Strategy. This sets out an ambitious £100 million package to help people who sleep rough now but also puts in place the structures that will end rough sleeping once and for all. The Government has now committed over £1.2 billion to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping over the spending review period.</p> answering member printed Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth question first answered 21/12/2018 13:41:29 answering member 4282 label Biography information for Lord Bourne of Aberystwyth

tabling member printed	Lord Goodlad
uin	HL12353
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2018 answer text <p>The UK government’s White Paper, ‘The Future Relationship Between the United Kingdom and the European Union’ set out an ambitious future relationship with the EU on data protection that builds on standard EU adequacy arrangements to provide for ongoing regulatory cooperation between the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) and the EU Data Protection Authorities that make up the European Data Protection Board (EDPB). The White Paper can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-future-relationship-between-the-united-kingdom-and-the-european-union.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Political Declaration sets out that the UK and the EU should make arrangements for cooperation between the ICO and the EU Data Protection Authorities.</p><p> </p><p>The UK will continue to have high standards of data protection and there will be no immediate change in the UK’s data protection standards. GDPR standards (as incorporated into UK law) will still apply in the UK and the Information Commissioner will remain the UK’s independent supervisory authority on data protection.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde grouped question UIN HL12403 question first answered 21/12/2018 13:58:44 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government whether the UK will retain regulatory alignment with the EU on data protection after the UK has left the EU.
tabling member printed	Lord Goodlad
uin	HL12354
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2018 answer text <p>The UK and the EU start from a position of regulatory alignment on data protection. The UK’s Data Protection Act 2018 updated the UK’s rules in accordance with the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and transposed the Law Enforcement Directive, ensuring our data protection laws will be aligned with those of the EU at our point of exit.</p><p> </p><p>The GDPR is direct EU legislation that will form part of UK domestic law under the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (EUWA) from Exit Day. We will use powers under the EUWA to correct deficiencies which result from the withdrawal of the UK from the EU to ensure that the UK’s legal framework for data protection continues to function correctly after exit day. In practice, this is largely a technical exercise, making changes which “domesticate” EU text, e.g. amending ‘Union law’ to read ‘domestic law’, or replacing ‘Member State’ with ‘the UK’, and repatriating powers from EU institutions to UK government.</p><p> </p><p>In the future, as an independent country outside of the EU, the UK will be able to make changes to its own national data protection framework. The UK is and will continue to be a global leader in strong data protection standards.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 21/12/2018 13:57:13 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the rejection by both Houses of the draft Legislative Reform (Horserace Betting Levy) Order 2018; and what plans they have to revise their guidance to officials on the use of Legislative Reform Orders.
tabling member printed	Lord Lipsey
uin	HL12356
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2018 answer text <p>In April 2017, we made significant reforms to the Horserace Betting Levy by fixing the Levy rate at 10% and extending the scope of the Levy to include offshore online bookmakers for the first time. These reforms resulted in an extra £45m in statutory Levy income for 2017/18 to support the racing industry and we expect a similar uplift for 2018/19.</p><p> </p><p>The uplift in income from the reformed Levy has contributed to record prize money of £142.5m in 2017/18 and has also provided increased funding for equine welfare, industry recruitment and training, and measures related to veterinary science and education.</p><p> </p><p>We note the Parliamentary Scrutiny committees’ reports regarding proposed changes to the administration of the reformed Levy and will consider them carefully.</p> answering member printed Lord Ashton of Hyde question first answered 21/12/2018 14:03:33 answering member 4247 label Biography information for Lord Ashton of Hyde
