AND Strategic Review of the LOCAL GOVERNMENT 107 Restoration and Renewal Building Safety Monthly Programme: publication 112 Update 107 Notes: Questions marked thus [R] indicate that a relevant interest has been declared. Questions with identification numbers of 900000 or greater indicate that the question was originally tabled as an oral question and has since been unstarred. ANSWERS BUSINESS, ENERGY AND INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY Additional Restrictions Grant and Wholesale Trade Dr Julian Lewis: [164332] To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what recent assessment he has made of the consistency with which different local authorities award Additional Restrictions Grants to similar companies; and if he will make it his policy to issue guidance to local authorities to give comparable levels of such support to food and drink wholesalers facing comparable financial pressures during the covid-19 outbreak. Paul Scully: The Additional Restrictions Grant (ARG) allows Local Authorities to put in place discretionary business support. Local Authorities are free to provide support that suits their local area, including to support those businesses not required to close but which have had their trade severely affected by the restrictions, and those businesses that fall outside the business rates system such as market traders. At the Budget on 3rd March, my Rt. Hon. Friend Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer announced an additional £425 million will be made available via the ARG, meaning that more than £2 billion has been made available to Local Authorities since November 2020. The further top- up of 3rd March is conditional on Local Authorities spending their existing allocations. Officials continue to engage with Local Authorities to ensure compliance to both the scheme rules and wider reporting requirements. Chemicals: Exports Lloyd Russell-Moyle: [164585] To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, if he will publish the (a) minutes and (b) list of attendees of the Chemicals EU Exit Trade Group on 15 February 2021; and what steps his Department is taking in response to the issues raised by stakeholders at that meeting. Nadhim Zahawi: Minutes from the Chemicals EU Exit (and Trade) Group (CEEG) are not routinely published. The attendees at the last CEEG held on the 15 th February 2021 were: Ministerial • Kwasi Kwarteng MP, Secretary of State for BEIS • Lord Callanan, Lords Parliamentary Under Secretary, BEIS [Co-Chair] • Rebecca Pow MP, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State, Defra • Mims Davies MP, Minister for Employment, DWP Industry • Calum MacLean – CEO & Group Director, Synthomer [Industry Co-Chair] • Steve Elliott – CEO, Chemical Industries Association (CIA) • Tom Bowtell – CEO, British Coatings Federation (BCF) • Adrian Hanrahan – Managing Director, Robinson Brothers • Jane Toogood –

  • A Guide to the Government for BIA Members
    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 26 June 2020 This is a briefing for BIA members on the Government led by Boris Johnson and key ministerial appointments for our sector after the December 2019 General Election and February 2020 Cabinet reshuffle. Following the Conservative Party’s compelling victory, the Government now holds a majority of 80 seats in the House of Commons. The life sciences sector is high on the Government’s agenda and Boris Johnson has pledged to make the UK “the leading global hub for life sciences after Brexit”. With its strong majority, the Government has the power to enact the policies supportive of the sector in the Conservatives 2019 Manifesto. All in all, this indicates a positive outlook for life sciences during this Government’s tenure. Contents: Ministerial and policy maker positions in the new Government relevant to the life sciences sector .......................................................................................... 2 Ministers and policy maker profiles................................................................................................................................................................................................ 7 Ministerial and policy maker positions in the new Government relevant to the life sciences sector* *Please note that this guide only covers ministers and responsibilities relevant to the life sciences and will be updated as further roles and responsibilities are announced.
