HMRC is currently undertaking a programme of work to transform the services it provides to give its customers a modern, efficient service, delivered in a modern and flexible way that is convenient for them. To do this, HMRC needs to continue to become a smaller and more professional organisation that is able to maximise the revenues that pay for the UK\u2019s public services, while making sustainable cost reductions and improving their customer service.<\/p>
<\/p>
Efficiencies required by the 2010 and 2013 Spending Reviews mean that HMRC\u2019s staffing levels in relation to these plans alone will reduce to 54,000 Full Time Equivalent posts (FTE) by 2015 and to 52,000 FTE by 2016. Reduced staffing levels mean a reduced need for accommodation and HMRC has recently closed consultation on the proposed closure of 12 offices between now and December 2015. The decisions will be announced in the autumn.<\/p>
<\/p>
In addition to requiring efficiencies, the 2010 and 2013 Spending Reviews provide resources to increase revenue yield and to increase the department\u2019s capacity for digital business and on\u2013line services. In consequence, the costs arising from the changes HMRC is making are not readily identified and need to be considered against the savings achieved through improved working methods, increased revenue yield, reduced running costs and overall greater efficiency in the service it provides. All redundancy costs are made against strict value for money criteria.<\/p>
<\/p>
HMRC is still developing its plans for the future, including extensive discussions across the whole of the Department through a series of events designed to start conversations with all staff about building the future of the organisation.<\/p>
<\/p>
HMRC is consulting with its staff on the way forward through a nationwide series of face to face events known as \u2018Building our Future\u2019, attended by every individual within the Department. \u2018Building our Future\u2019 explains the changes being made, the background to them and includes group discussions at which individuals consider how they can contribute.<\/p>
<\/p>
HMRC remains strongly committed to providing services to the regions. It has for example recently introduced a new Needs Enhanced Support service. This includes a mobile advisory service to ensure that accessible and tailored advice is available to the 1.5 million customers who need extra help.<\/p>
<\/p>
Its longer term strategy continues to look to bring people together into Regional Centres, providing flexibility, improved efficiency, greater cost effectiveness and improved career development opportunities for its staff.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
These will be drawn from its existing campus locations, where 80 per cent of the Department\u2019s workforce is currently based.

The focus of Girl Summit 2014 was on ending female genital mutilation and child, early and forced marriage. No specific assessment was made at the Summit on the role of the GAVI Alliance in safeguarding the health of women and girls or addressing gender-related barriers to accessing immunisation services. However, GAVI is rolling-out two vaccines that will directly benefit girls and women: rubella vaccine, which protects against a disease damaging to unborn children; and Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine, which helps prevent cervical cancer, one of the leading causes of death in young women in sub-Saharan Africa. GAVI will immunise over 30 million girls with HPV vaccines during 2013-2020 which will prevent over 150,000 women dying each year. GAVI is working to overcome the barriers to introducing the HPV vaccine in developing countries by reducing the high cost of the vaccine and tackling the challenges of immunising girls aged nine to thirteen years by integrating HPV immunisation with wider health interventions targeted at adolescent girls.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The UK\u2019s support to GAVI remains a highly cost effective way to achieve childhood immunisation results at scale. The 2011 UK Multilateral Aid Review (MAR) ranked GAVI as being very good value for money. The 2013 MAR Update confirmed that GAVI is continuing to make reasonable progress. An example of this is that GAVI helped to secure a reduction in price of 35% between 2010-2012 of the three vaccines it spends the most money on.<\/p>

Keeping our children safe, and ensuring our schools prepare them for life in modern Britain, could not be more important. There is no place for extremist views in any school.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Secretary of State will take action whenever information emerges that children are being exposed to indoctrination or extremist views that are contrary to fundamental British values. The Department for Education will continue to support local authorities and schools when serious concerns emerge, wherever those schools are.<\/p>
<\/p>
As the Secretary of State said in her statement to the House of Commons on 22 July, she will reflect on the questions raised and the specific recommendations made in Peter Clarke\u2019s report, and return to the House in the autumn to set out what steps will be taken on these matters.<\/p>

To date Crossrail Ltd. has procured contracts to the combined value of approximately £7.6bn, not including the Rolling Stock and Depot procurement, the Train Operating Company contract or the on-network Network Rail works.<\/p>
Crossrail Ltd. has analysed its supply chain and found that approximately 97 per cent of contractors are based in the UK, 2 per cent are based in the EU and 1 per cent are based outside the EU.<\/p>
These figures are derived from a broad sample which Crossrail Ltd is able to monitor and made up of tier one contractors directly engaged by Crossrail Ltd, contractors from tiers two and three which are deemed to be business critical, and information provided by tier one contractors regarding their own suppliers.<\/p>
For those contracts in which Crossrail Ltd is not a party (i.e. tiers two and below), Crossrail Ltd does not hold data on the value of these contracts as they are commercial agreements between third parties.<\/p>
Crossrail Ltd will be writing to the Noble Lord to explain this in more detail.<\/p>
