The Fund will be jointly managed by HM Treasury, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, and the Department for Transport. This is a new approach to investing in local growth – ending siloes in Whitehall that make it difficult to take a holistic approach to the needs of local areas https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/levelling-up-fund-prospectus (see summary in Appendix 6a) The UK Community Renewal Fund, which will provide local areas across the UK with access to £220 million of additional funding as they prepare for the UK Shared Prosperity Fund due to launch in 2022. It is targeted to help to level up and create opportunity across the UK in places most in need in a manner distinct but complementary to the Levelling Up Fund, through investment in skills, enterprise and employment.

A significant amount of operational devolution is occurring within Network Rail as we Thursday 12 January 2017 speak. A Scottish route within Network Rail that will have much more independence and freedom of action is being set up. I urge the Scottish Government and Scottish The House met at half-past Nine o’clock Members to engage in that devolution process, not least because the Scottish Government are co-operating with PRAYERS the Office of Rail and Road on the periodic review that will determine the output for control period 6 within Scotland. [MR SPEAKER in the Chair] Drew Hendry (Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey) (SNP): A report commissioned by Transport Scotland showed that Network Rail’soriginal cost estimates Oral Answers to Questions for Scottish projects were unreliable. Does the Minister agree that, especially when projects overrun by hundreds of millions of pounds, those who commission the work should have the power to hold Network Rail to account?

  • Paul Scully MP Minister for Small Business, Consumers and Labour Markets Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy 1 Victoria Street London SW1H 0ET
    Paul Scully MP Minister for Small Business, Consumers and Labour Markets Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy 1 Victoria Street London SW1H 0ET 2 February 2021 Dear Minister, Re: Support for the weddings industry. We are writing to you as a cross-party group of MPs concerned at the situation facing the weddings industry. A few weeks ago, the UK Weddings Taskforce presented a stark picture to us, with many of their businesses on the brink of collapse. This is despite pent-up demand and record bookings for the year ahead, worth £25 billion. There are 60,000 businesses and 400,000 workers relying on this sector and it is worth an average of £14.7 billion to the UK economy each year. Yet it requires urgent attention and bridging support to stay solvent, fulfil upcoming bookings, maintain jobs, and boost the economy when restrictions are lifted. The industry has been able to postpone the majority of its 2020 revenue, but without confidence about when weddings can restart, at a reasonable capacity, cancellations are increasing and the ability of wedding businesses to survive is diminishing by the day. First, the sector needs more information about the year ahead, including whether, after Easter, venues will be allowed more than 50 guests. Confidence is the most important factor in calculating spend, preventing cancellations and securing new bookings. Government engagement would not cost the Treasury and would help both consumers and the sector. Second, the sector needs an urgent cash injection to keep it going until reopening. The Weddings Taskforce has identified that cash grants of up to £10,000 would support up to 38,000 wedding businesses to survive until 1st April, and grants of between £10,000 and £40,000 would support a further 22,000 businesses.
