Government is supportive of all airports including those in Scotland, in creating new international connections.

The noise levels on this section of the M20 have been assessed as part of DEFRA\u2019s Noise Action Plan. This identified 10 areas between M20 Junction 8-9 which required investigation because of the level of noise.<\/p>

Action has been taken to mitigate noise at five out of the 10 areas with the installation of noise insulation. Highways England are working to address the remaining five areas, including trials to test options to reduce the noise generated by concrete road surfaces.<\/p>

The Department did not make any write-offs of permanent fixed assets in financial years 2016-17 and 2017-18.<\/p>

The Department records an annual write-down of infrastructure assets in the financial statements. These write-downs represent notional accounting adjustments arising from the different valuation bases which are applied at different stages over an asset\u2019s life in accordance with HMT\u2019s financial reporting rules, and do not represent write-offs of actual permanent assets.<\/p>

Write-offs may also arise in respect of other asset categories such as debt, investment or inventory balances. These write-offs are included within Losses as reported by the Department. Where such write-offs individually exceed £300,000, they are separately disclosed as Losses in the Parliamentary Accountability Report within the Department\u2019s Annual Report and Accounts.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3991", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jesse Norman"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hereford and South Herefordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jesse Norman"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-01-31", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-01-31T13:43:01.167Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-01-24", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Department for Transport: Assets"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the the value of written-off assets held by his Department in each of the last two financial years.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4633", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Paul Girvan"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South Antrim"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Paul Girvan"} ], "uin" : "212437"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "next" : "https://eldaddp.azurewebsites.net/answeredquestions.text?_page=1&max-dateTabled=2019-01-25&answer.answeringMemberConstituency=Hereford+and+South+Herefordshire", "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 2410, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
