Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by the Parliamentary Secretary to the Cabinet Office on 6 June (HC53886), how many domestic flights in total were travelled by the Prime Minister on official business since 5 July 2024, counting each one-way journey as one flight.

Answered by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

It has been the practice of successive administrations not to publish granular information relating to the official movements of Ministers and those accompanying them within the United Kingdom for security reasons. Information about official overseas travel is published as part of the Cabinet Office transparency returns and made available on the GOV.UK website.

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by the Chief Secretary to the Treasury on 14 October 2024 (HC7020), whether the Chancellor of the Exchequer is provided with an official car outside of the provision of the Government Car Service by (1) the Metropolitan Police, or (2) a private contractor.

Answered by Lord Livermore - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

We do not comment on the specific arrangements in place for the Chancellor for security reasons.

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government what is their policy on the use of leverage tactics by trade unions during industrial disputes; and what assessment they have made of the impact of repealing the Trade Union Act 2016 on the frequency of the use of leverage tactics.

Answered by Baroness Lloyd of Effra - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

Industrial action must be a last resort in response to industrial disputes. The government encourages unions, employers and workers to engage and negotiate where disputes arise.

Leverage tactics are subject to the same legal framework as all trade union activity. The existing provisions of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, including the prohibition on secondary action and limits on picketing, remain in place alongside the general law on intimidation, harassment and interference with business.

The Government published an impact assessment on 21 October 2024, assessing the expected impacts of repealing the Trade Union Act 2016.
