The Government is committed to ensuring businesses can access the finance they need for investment and growth. The Bank of England and HM Treasury announced in November that the Funding for Lending scheme would be focused on lending to businesses to reflect the success that the scheme has had with households. Lending under the Funding for Lending Scheme has totalled over £16bn according to the latest figures. The British Business Bank is being established to ensure that business finance markets work efficiently and effectively for smaller businesses, and its loan guarantee and investment programmes supported £660 million of lending and investment in 2013 across the UK. A breakdown of the value of debt finance facilitated to businesses in Bolton North East constituency and England through British Business Bank programmes in the last year is detailed in the table below. <table><tbody><tr><td> </td><td>Enterprise Finance Guarantee Scheme (drawn down)</td><td>Start Up Loans Scheme (drawn down)</td><td>Lending facilitated by the Business Finance Partnership</td></tr><tr><td>Bolton North East Constituency</td><td>7 Loans with a value of £1.14m</td><td>24 loans with a value of £117 330</td><td>North West Region: 462 loans with a value of nearly £ 27m</td></tr><tr><td>England</td><td>2857 loans with a value of £307.6 million</td><td>13432 with a value over £75m</td><td>3721 loans provided with a value of nearly £226m</td></tr></tbody></table>
