Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) is a commercial company in which the Government is a currently a shareholder. The Government\u2019s shareholdings are managed on an arm\u2019s length basis by UK Financial Investments (UKFI). UKFI\u2019s role is to manage the shareholdings, not to manage the bank.<\/p>

The Government created a new, tough City regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), to protect customers and ensure Britain\u2019s banks conduct themselves to the highest standards. Irrespective of shareholder makeup, and in common with all UK banks, RBS is subject to the FCA\u2019s Banking Conduct Regime, which covers the treatment of customers. RBS is required to fully comply with this regime going forward.<\/p>

The written statement of 25 March, Official Report<\/em>, HCWS488 is the most up to date expression of planning policy for solar energy developments and should be read alongside the National Planning Policy Framework and relevant planning practice guidance, which can be found at the following link:<\/p> Paragraph 52 of our National Planning Policy Framework recognises that the supply of new homes can sometimes be best achieved through planning for larger scale development such as new settlements. However it also clearly sets out that all areas should prepare a Local Plan, which, as far as possible, represents a collective vision and set of agreed priorities for the area. Defra is working with the Beak Trimming Action Group, to find ways to manage laying hens without the need to beak trim. As part of this process, Defra has funded a study at the University of Bristol to assess the effectiveness of management strategies in reducing injurious pecking in non-beak trimmed laying hens. A review of all the evidence, including the outcome of the Bristol study, will be carried out later this year.<\/p> <\/p>"}
