Children: Maintenance
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Tuesday 8th September 2026 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what analysis his Department has undertaken of the reasons why assessed child maintenance liabilities are not paid in full, broken down by (a) deliberate non-payment, (b) affordability concerns, (c) disputed assessments, (d) administrative factors and (e) other reasons. Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Work and Pensions) The Department recently published research which was commissioned as part of the wider evidence base used to inform the Department's review of the child maintenance calculation.
Amongst other things, this looked at the reasons given by both Paying and Receiving Parents as to why they did not pay or receive their full calculated amount of maintenance. These results are discussed in the chapter entitled ‘Insights on liabilities and hypothetical changes’.
These findings are based on the reasons for non-compliance self-reported by a sample of CMS users. |

Pensioners: Income Tax
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Tuesday 8th September 2026 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether his Department has assessed the potential impact of the freezing of the personal income tax allowance since 2021 on pensioners’ disposable incomes; what estimate he has made of the number of pensioners brought into income tax as a result of that policy; and what discussions he has had with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the implications for recipients of the State Pension. Answered by James Murray - Financial Secretary to the Treasury and Paymaster General The number of individual income tax payers over State Pension Age over time can be seen in Table 2.1 of the Income Tax liabilities statistics: tax year 2023 to 2024 to tax year 2026 to 2027 - GOV.UK
The effect of threshold freezes on the number of people forecast to pay tax can be found in the OBR’s March 2026 Economic and fiscal outlook – detailed forecast tables: receipts, linked below.
The previous Government made the decision to maintain income tax thresholds at their current levels from April 2021 until April 2028 and this is reflected in HMRC’s statistics and in OBR’s forecasts. The tax information and impact note on Maintaining the Personal Allowance and the basic rate limit for Income Tax, and equivalent National Insurance contributions thresholds until 5 April 2031 can be found linked below:
The Government intends to ease the administrative burden for pensioners so that they do not have to pay small amounts of tax via Simple Assessment from 27/28. The Government will set out more details in due course. |

Mining: Environment Protection
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Friday 18th September 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, pursuant to the responsibilities of the Mining Remediation Authority, (a) how many claims relating to abandoned metal mines have been received by the Authority in each year since 2020, broken down by county, (b) how many such claims related to former tin mining areas in Cornwall and Devon, and (c) how those figures compare with the number of claims relating to former coal mining areas over the same period. Answered by Michael Shanks - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) The Mining Remediation Authority exists primarily to manage the legacy of Great Britain's coal mining past, and its statutory responsibilities remain focused on former coal mining activities, and as such the MRA does not hold data on metal mines.
The MRA’ provides technical advice, when requested, on hazards associated with historic metal mining, as part of its role as a 24/7 emergency response organisation and a Category 2 responder under the Civil Contingencies Act 2004.
Between 1 April 2020 and 31 March 2026, the Mining Remediation Authority responded to 4,802 incidents and claims across Great Britain. Of these, 1,785 cases were determined to be attributable to former coal mining activities. |

Demonstrations: Anti-Muslim Hostility
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Friday 18th September 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many religiously aggravated offences under sections 4A and 5 of the Public Order Act 1986, aggravated under section 31 of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998 by hostility towards Muslims, have been recorded at protests and demonstrations in each of the last three years. Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Home Office) The Home Office collects information on hate crimes recorded by the police in England and Wales. This includes information on religious hate crimes, by targeted religion and offence type; however, we cannot determine which of these offences were recorded at protests or demonstrations, as this information is not centrally collected. |

Demonstrations: Anti-Muslim Hostility
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Monday 21st September 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to ask police forces to publish the standards and criteria they apply when assessing anti-Muslim speech at demonstrations. Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Home Office) This Government is clear that anti-Muslim hatred is completely unacceptable and has no place in our society. The Government expects police to enforce the law where appropriate to protect communities and maintain public order and public safety. The Government is committed to upholding freedom of speech, but the freedom to express views does not extend to language, displays of writing or images that incite violence, hatred or criminal behaviour. Whether specific speech, chants, placards or slogans constitute an offence depends on the context surrounding the incident, and decisions on enforcement are a matter for the police. The College of Policing is responsible for providing guidance to police and is operationally independent from Government. The College produces the Public Order Public Safety authorised professional practice, which covers protests and disorder, and jointly publishes the Protest Operational Advice Document with the National Police Chiefs’ Council. The Crown Prosecution Service has also published guidance on protest-related offences. All of these documents are published online. Under the replacement system proposed by the College of Policing and National Police Chiefs' Council in their joint review of non-crime hate incidents, non-crime incidents motivated by hostility will be recorded only where there is a clear policing purpose. The new framework is being developed with policing partners and is expected to be implemented in early 2027. Until then, police forces continue to apply existing arrangements for recording and managing non-crime hate incidents. |

Anti-Muslim Hostility
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Monday 21st September 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment the department has made of how anti-Muslim hostility falling below the criminal threshold is now recognised or recorded by police forces, following the abolition of non-crime hate incidents on 31 March 2026. Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Home Office) This Government is clear that anti-Muslim hatred is completely unacceptable and has no place in our society. The Government expects police to enforce the law where appropriate to protect communities and maintain public order and public safety.

Children: Maintenance
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Monday 14th September 2026 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what proportion of all Child Maintenance Service paying parents paid (a) 100% of their assessed child maintenance liability, (b) part of their assessed liability and (c) none of their assessed liability in the latest period for which data is available; and whether his Department can produce such figures for the entire CMS caseload, including Direct Pay arrangements. Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Work and Pensions) The Child Maintenance Service (CMS) does not routinely monitor the amount of maintenance paid by Paying Parents using Direct Pay arrangements. Receiving Parents on Direct Pay should contact the CMS if maintenance is not being paid in full, so that the case can be moved to the Collect & Pay service. For this reason, the Department does not publish regular compliance statistics for Direct Pay arrangements. However, the Department has published Direct Pay Research which includes an assessment of compliance amongst Direct Pay users, based on a survey of service users which was carried out in early 2024. For Collect & Pay arrangements, statistics are published quarterly. The latest figures can be found in section 6 of the most recent Child Maintenance Service statistics (data to March 2026). Please note that, while the CMS always aims to achieve full compliance, statistics quote the number of Paying Parents who pay 90% or more of their quarterly liability. This is because, for reasons relating to collection scheduling, some fully compliant Paying Parents may register in the statistics as paying slightly below 100%. |

Droughts
Asked by: Andrew George (Liberal Democrat - St Ives) Wednesday 9th September 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment her Department has made of the financial impact of drought conditions during summer 2026 on farmers; what support is available to assist affected farmers with additional costs arising from those conditions; and whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of introducing any further financial assistance for farmers facing increased expenditure on (a) feed, (b) water supply, (c) irrigation, (d) crop losses and (e) other drought-related costs. Answered by Stephen Morgan - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Defra works with industry and across Government to monitor risks that may arise, including to farmers. The UK Agriculture Market Monitoring Group monitors UK agricultural markets throughout the year, including price, supply, inputs, trade, and recent developments.
As announced in August 2026, the Government is supporting farmers through a range of measures. These include temporary Environmental Land Management flexibilities and up to £15m in funding million for on-farm reservoirs.
Defra has announced an extra £50 million for Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) 2026 Window 2, which opens later this month. This takes SFI26’s total budget to £290 million and helps more farmers access support.
The Environment Agency is prioritising short-term abstraction licence variations, and the Government is committed to continue working with the farming sector to improve resilience of on-farm water supply to ensure farmers can invest with confidence.
The Government will continue to monitor the situation closely and work with the farming and water sectors, taking further action if needed. |
