Written Answers
Blue Badge Scheme
Asked by: Claire Young (Liberal Democrat - Thornbury and Yate)
Wednesday 26th February 2025

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of the suggested guideline for issuing authorities of 12 weeks for the renewal of Blue Badges on people with disabilities.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The Department for Transport is responsible for the legislation that governs the Blue Badge scheme and provides guidance for local authorities who are solely responsible for administering the scheme, including issuing/re-issuing badges.

There are no timescales set for administering applications/renewals either in legislation or guidance. 12 weeks is mentioned in the gov.uk landing page for those applying for or renewing a badge online using the Department’s Blue Badge Digital Service and reflects how long typically the process takes. But each cases is considered on its merits by the relevant local authority.

Personal Independence Payment
Asked by: Claire Young (Liberal Democrat - Thornbury and Yate)
Monday 3rd March 2025

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what steps his Department is taking to reduce delays in renewals of Personal Independent Payments (PIP).

Answered by Stephen Timms - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions)

DWP continues to prioritise new claims to Personal Independence Payment (PIP) ensuring claims are processed and awarded as soon as possible. However, with limited capacity and resources, this means some customers are waiting longer than expected for their PIP review.

To help address this, and to speed up the process and increase efficiency, the majority of reviews are now completed in-house. This means a DWP Case Manager can make a decision where sufficient evidence and information is provided or available.

Where we cannot deal with a review in-house, and where an award may possibly end, we have robust measures in place to ensure all claims remain in payment, including those awards which rely on PIP to access Motability vehicles or automatic entitlement to a Blue Badge.

Select Committee Inquiry
18 Feb 2025
The cost of energy
Energy Security and Net Zero Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 8 Apr 2025)


The committee has launched an inquiry into the cost of energy.

The inquiry’s aims are:

  • To determine whether the rules on billing are fair to all consumers;
  • To understand where the costs of energy transition may fall within the sector in a more equitable fashion;
  • To examine the protections for consumers against energy retailers.
  • To hold the Government to account on its promise to reduce energy bills by £300.

Building support for the energy transition
Energy Security and Net Zero Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 8 Apr 2025)


The ability of the Government to make difficult decisions and to change the way in which energy is generated and used in the UK will depend on being able to bring the population along with them.

There is a vocal opposition to net zero (which includes energy transition proposals), that has grown in strength, with the potential to damage the political will to carry it through. 

This inquiry would seek to detail the objectives of the Government's plans for the energy transition, whether the public have the same understanding those objectives and if there is a willingness to accept potential short term, or long term, detriment in terms of finance and convenience to achieve that aim.

20 Feb 2025
Revisiting the nuclear roadmap
Energy Security and Net Zero Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 8 Apr 2025)


The previous Government published Civil Nuclear: Roadmap to 2050 in January 2024.  

The roadmap committed to building a further large-scale reactor; delivering 3-7GW more of nuclear power every five years from 2030-2044; reaching 24GW of nuclear power on the grid by 2050 and developing government policy to support  advanced nuclear technologies Like Small Modular Reactors.

Witnesses to the Science, Innovation and Technology Committee’s 2023 inquiry on delivering nuclear power described the 24GW and building goals as more of a “wish list” than a strategy to achieve those ambitions.

The new Government has not re-committed to the roadmap or these targets.

The final investment decision to greenlight the new large-scale nuclear plant at Sizewell C is expected in the coming months.  The result of the previous government’s small modular reactor competition is also due to be announced soon.

This inquiry seeks to understand what the new Government’s nuclear ambitions are and what the roadmap is to achieving them.
