ANSWERS BUSINESS, ENERGY AND INDUSTRIAL STRATEGY Bounce Back Loan Scheme Bambos Charalambous: [145099] To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what assessment the Government has made of the effect on independent retailers of the repayment of bounce back loans before the end of the covid-19 lockdown. Paul Scully: The Government launched the Bounce Back Loan Scheme (BBLS) to ensure that the smallest businesses could access loans of up to £50,000 to help businesses through this difficult period. Under BBLS no repayments are due from the borrower for the first 12 months of the loan, giving businesses the breathing space they need during this difficult time. In addition, the Government covers the first 12 months of interest payments charged to the business by the lender. We have always been clear that businesses are responsible for repaying any finance they take out. However, we recognise that some borrowers will benefit from flexibility for their repayments. That is why we announced the Pay As You Grow measures. Pay As You Grow will provide Bounce Back Loan borrowers more time and flexibility over their repayments by giving them the option to: • Extend the length of the loan from six years to ten. • Make interest-only payments for six months, with the option to use this up to three times throughout the loan. • Once six payments have been made, have the option of a six-month repayment holiday. Businesses will be able to use these options either individually or in combination with each other. In addition, they have the option to fully repay their loan early and will face no early repayment charges for doing so. Together, the 12-month payment holiday and interest-free period for borrowers, along with the Pay As You Grow measures, provide a generous support package giving businesses the time to get back on their feet. The Government continues to enhance its engagement with a broad range of trade and representative bodies, in particular SME networks, to continue to understand the impact of Covid-19 on businesses and the concerns they have. Business: Coronavirus Fleur Anderson: [145159] To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what support he is offering to businesses that have been allowed to remain open but suffered a significant loss in income due to reduced trade and footfall during the covid-19 outbreak. Paul Scully: Local Authorities have been provided with funding via the Additional Restrictions Grant (ARG). The ARG is a discretionary scheme aimed to support businesses, including those that have not been mandated to close but have had their trade adversely affected by the nationalised restrictions. Local Authorities have been allocated a further £500m in discretionary funding via the ARG, in addition to £1.1bn already allocated in November 2020. Local Authorities can use the ARG to support businesses in their local area, as they see fit. During the period of localised restrictions, Local Authorities were provided with similar discretionary funding via the Local Restrictions Support Grant (Open) when entering Tier 2 (High) or Tier 3 (Very High) restrictions. Carbon Emissions Luke Pollard: [145145] To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, when the net zero strategy will be published; and whether it will include the emissions reductions required to meet the UK’s 2030 Nationally Determined Contribution of reducing emissions by 68 per cent by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. Anne-Marie Trevelyan: The Government will publish a comprehensive Net Zero Strategy this year, ahead of COP26. The strategy will set out our vision for transitioning to a net zero economy so we can make the most of new growth and employment opportunities across the UK. We have a robust legislative framework in place to ensure that the government is meeting its climate targets. The Climate Change Act 2008 introduced our innovative framework of carbon budgets to ensure continued progress towards our climate targets. The carbon budgets currently set in legislation cover the period between 2008 to 2032 and are among the most stringent in the world, requiring the equivalent of a 57% cut in emissions by 2030 from a 1990 baseline. We will set the sixth carbon budget this year and will set out our plans on continuing to meet our climate targets. Through my Rt. Hon. Friend the Prime Minister’s Ten Point Plan and our Energy White Paper, we have set out concrete steps we will take to build back greener from the pandemic and reach net zero emissions by 2050. Over the coming months, in addition to the Net Zero Strategy, we will bring forward further bold proposals to cut emissions and create new jobs and industries across the whole country.

  • Victoria Prentis MP Presents a Bill
    Victoria Prentis MP presents a bill "to make provision about mandatory local consultation in relation to changes in services proposed by NHS Trusts and healthcare commissioning authorities;and for connected purposes" 25 October 2016 Source: https://www.theyworkforyou.com/debates/?id=2016-10- 25a.190.8&s=victoria+prentis#g191.2 On Tuesday 25 October, North Oxfordshire MP Victoria Prentis, presented her first Ten Minute Rule Motion to the House on the subject of the Horton General Hospital. The National Health Service Provision (Local Consultation) Bill was a direct response to events over the summer at the Horton General Hospital, which saw the downgrade of the maternity unit to a midwife-only service with no public consultation. During her speech, Victoria voiced her concerns about the way in which the decision was taken and emphasised the need for public consultation whenever there is a change to NHS services, even when it is in response to an emergency situation. Presenting her Bill to the Commons, Victoria said in the Chamber: I do find it encouraging to have paternal, maternal and, indeed, filial support in this place, Mr Speaker. I beg to move, That leave be given for to bring in a bill to make provision about mandatory local consultation in relation to changes in services proposed by NHS Trusts and healthcare commissioning authorities; and for connected purposes. The Bill is the result of our experience in Oxfordshire this summer when the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust suspended consultant-led maternity services at our local general hospital with no warning and no consultation.
