No specific assessment has been made of the impact of the apprenticeship reforms upon individual further education (FE) colleges, or other providers. However, we are actively considering the efficiency and resilience of the FE sector, and will be assessing how far current funding and regulatory structures meet the costs of high quality, world-class provision. Funding to FE colleges to deliver apprenticeships and the key role they play in the wider further education system will be considered as part of this assessment.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3980", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Sam Gyimah"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "East Surrey"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Sam Gyimah"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-26T16:36:06.573Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-04-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Apprentices: Finance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment he has made of the effect of the 2017 changes to apprenticeship funding on the (a) number of employees and (b) level of funding of further education colleges with a role as partner providers for apprenticeships.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3915", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Gloria De Piero"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Ashfield"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Gloria De Piero"} ], "uin" : "136922"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/889871", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/889871/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is responsible for regulating compliance with data protection legislation. The Government's Data Protection Bill will strengthen legislation around data protection and give the Commissioner tougher powers to ensure that organisations comply.<\/p>

As part of this Bill, the Information Commissioner\u2019s office will now be responsible for producing a new statutory age appropriate design code for online services which are likely to be accessed by children. This code will help ensure that children in the UK are granted a robust data regime so they are able to access online services in a way that meets their age and development needs. It will ensure that websites and applications are designed in a way that makes clear what data is being collected on children, how this data is being used, and how both children and parents can stay in control of this data. Non-compliance with this code will be a factor in any ICO decision to bring forward enforcement action against websites that do not comply with the GDPR.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Information Commissioner provides guidance and works with organisations to build compliance. There are a number of tools available to the ICO to ensure compliance with GDPR, including criminal prosecution, non-criminal enforcement and audit. For those who commit serious breaches there are significant financial penalties including fines up to £18 million or 4% of global turnover that can be applied as well as the backstop of criminal prosecution.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4115", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Margot James"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stourbridge"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Margot James"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-26T09:20:34.063Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "10"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Digital, Culture, Media and Sport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-04-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Internet: Children"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the powers available to the Information Commissioner\u2019s Office to enforce their guidelines on online child safety.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4267", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sarah Champion"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Rotherham"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Sarah Champion"} ], "uin" : "136923"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/889872", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Women and Equalities"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/889872/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Leaving the EU provides us with an opportunity to move away from the current subsidy system which pays farmers simply on the basis of the amount of land they farm. That system has not served farmers well, is not seen as fair, and does not provide good value to the taxpayer.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government understands the importance of providing stability to farmers as we leave the EU and has pledged to continue to commit the same cash total in funds for farm support for the duration of this Parliament, providing much needed certainty to farmers and landowners.<\/p>

<\/p>

Productivity is an important driver of long term economic growth. Leaving the EU is an opportunity for the farming industry to boost domestic productivity through supporting innovation and investment and encouraging best industry cultures and structures.<\/p>

<\/p>

Earlier this year the Countryside Productivity Small Grant Scheme was launched, offering grants of between £3,000 and £12,000 for a range of equipment to improve productivity on farms. This follows on from the £40 million of grants launched in October last year to support investment in cutting edge technology and new equipment. Additionally, the Government will shortly be launching a £10 million collaboration fund to help farmers and small producers to work together to improve their competitiveness, access new markets and strengthen their position in the supply chain.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3934", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for George Eustice"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Camborne and Redruth"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "George Eustice"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-26T11:26:48.733Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "13"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-04-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Farmers: Bankruptcy"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, with reference to the report of 16 April in the Farmers' Guardian on why 25 per cent of British farms could go bankrupt after Brexit, what steps his Department is taking to ensure such farms remain viable.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/308", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Jim Cunningham"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Coventry South"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Jim Cunningham"} ], "uin" : "136935"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/889884", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Work and Pensions"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/889884/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

I have interpreted the reference to fitness for work assessments as relating to Work Capability Assessments.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

Every person who attends a Work Capability Assessment can ask to have their face-to-face assessment audio recorded and all requests will be accommodated where possible. Recording equipment will be provided by the supplier or alternatively claimants can use their own equipment provided they meet certain conditions required by DWP.
