answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/11/2018 answer text <p>As we leave the EU we want to support farmers to grow more, sell more and export more great British food. Productivity is the key driver of long-term economic growth and prosperity. Our future agriculture policy will allow farmers to provide a supply of healthy, home-grown produce made to high environmental and animal welfare standards. The future policy will be underpinned by measures to increase productivity and invest in new technology. This will help farmers become more profitable and reduce their environmental footprint. Leaving the EU is an opportunity to boost domestic productivity through research, adoption of best practice, investment in new tools and technologies and adoption of new business models.</p><p>Further preparation for our withdrawal is continuing to be undertaken across the whole of government to consider how we best manage checks and controls in a range of scenarios. We have been very clear that when we leave the EU, we will categorically not dilute our world-leading set of standards on food safety and quality. We are committed to upholding these with robust and independent scientific and technical advice. Any products entering the UK market must meet our high standards of quality and safety.</p><p>The UK has a high degree of food security, built on access to a range of sources including strong domestic production and imports from third countries. Consumers will continue to have access to a range of different products when we leave the EU.</p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 15/11/2018 11:05:03 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice

uin	190341
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/11/2018 answer text <p>The UK is fully committed to the promotion and protection of human rights, and reports of human rights abuses in the Philippines remain troubling. We are concerned by the high death toll associated with the 'war on drugs', the situation of land rights and human rights defenders, developments on media freedom, and moves to reintroduce the death penalty.</p><p>Our Embassy in Manila has made these concerns clear with senior officials and government figures and it is in regular contact with human rights groups and relevant UN bodies on a range of human rights issues. We also work closely with the wider international community, including our EU partners, to press for investigations into instances of abuse and to encourage the protection of human rights defenders.</p><p>I raised these issues with a number of Philippine Ministers during my trip to Manila in August 2018 and with the Philippine Ambassador in April 2018. In the UK item 2 statement at the UN Human Rights Council on 11 September 2018, we urged the Philippines to investigate killings associated with the &quot;war on drugs&quot; and to ensure the safety of Land Rights defenders.</p> answering member constituency Cities of London and Westminster answering member printed Mark Field question first answered 15/11/2018 14:13:32 answering member 1405 label Biography information for Mark Field

uin	190511
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/11/2018 answer text <p>The Trust Special Administration (TSA) Regime is a bespoke, time-limited measure to address failure in National Health Service foundation trusts or NHS trusts. The TSA Regime introduced the role of Trust Special Administrator who would take over the failed trust with a dual role of running it and making recommendations for a sustainable long-term solution for its services.</p><p> </p><p>The Regime is intended to be used as a measure of last resort and under specific circumstances. Consequently, the Regime is likely to be used sparingly. There are a range of other measures which can be applied before the Regime is considered.</p><p> </p><p>The power to place NHS foundation trusts into the TSA regime sits with Monitor which is now part of NHS Improvement. The power for placing NHS trusts into TSA sits with the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 15/11/2018 10:51:03 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay
