Written Answers
Housing: Insurance
Asked by: Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party - Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey)
Monday 19th February 2024

Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, whether his Department has had discussions with the Financial Conduct Authority on the classification of timber framed homes as non-standard construction materials for insurance purposes.

Answered by Lee Rowley - Minister of State (Minister for Housing)

The Department has regular engagement with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and the insurance sector on a range of issues, but this has not covered the classification of timber-framed buildings for insurance purposes. The Department is happy to receive further representations on this issue.

Tax Avoidance: Bankruptcy
Asked by: Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party - Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey)
Monday 26th February 2024

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he has made an assessment of the compatibility of the issuing of section 684 notices by HMRC with the recommendations of the independent loan charge review led by Sir Amyas Morse.

Answered by Nigel Huddleston - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

The Loan Charge is targeted at contrived tax avoidance schemes that sought to avoid Income Tax and National Insurance contributions by paying users their income in the form of loans.

In his independent review, Lord Morse recommended that the Loan Charge no longer apply to loans made before 9 December 2010. However, Lord Morse said “HMRC should continue being able to settle and investigate cases prior to this point under their normal powers where they have appropriate grounds, and a legal basis, to do so”. The government accepted this recommendation. In line with this recommendation, HMRC is still seeking to recover the tax due where it had taken the necessary steps in the past to give it the legal basis to do so.

In May 2022, the Court of Appeal said that HMRC could consider using certain provisions in the PAYE system (referred to as ‘section 684(7A)(b)’) to collect tax directly from the individual who received income through a DR scheme. HMRC using these provisions where appropriate is in line with Lord Morse’s recommendation.

Sanctions: Russia
Asked by: Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party - Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey)
Monday 26th February 2024

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Minister of State, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office, what steps his Department is taking to increase the number of people sanctioned for creating propaganda in support of the Russian offensive in Ukraine.

Answered by Anne-Marie Trevelyan - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

The Government keeps potential sanctions designations under close and regular review; it is not appropriate to speculate on future sanctions as this could reduce their impact.

Ukraine: Military Aid
Asked by: Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party - Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey)
Monday 26th February 2024

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what steps his Department is taking to (a) identify, (b) procure and (c) supply additional military aid for Ukraine.

Answered by James Heappey - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence) (Minister for the Armed Forces)

The UK liaises closely with the Ukrainian Government to understand their military needs, as the conflict continues to evolve.

The UK uses a wide range of sourcing mechanisms to procure the military equipment that Ukraine most requires. This includes our own acquisition systems and international mechanisms, such as the UK-administered International Fund for Ukraine, which uses financial contributions from international partners to procure priority equipment for Ukraine. We supply this through a range of national and international, military and civilian supply routes with and through the International Donor Coordination Centre.

Our objective is to catalyse international support to meet the scale of the challenge being faced by Ukraine and the Defence Secretary recently announced that in addition to our co-lead of the Maritime Capability Coalition the UK will, with Latvia, co-lead a major drone capability coalition for Ukraine. We have also brought together 15 nations to sign an agreement on two multinational procurement initiatives covering munitions and missiles.

Universal Credit: Students
Asked by: Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party - Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey)
Thursday 29th February 2024

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 22 February 2024 to Question 14619 on Universal Credit: Students, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of extending eligibility for Universal Credit to higher education students affected by (a) coercive financial control and (b) other forms of domestic abuse.

Answered by Jo Churchill - Minister of State (Department for Work and Pensions)

There are no plans to change current policy.

National Insurance: Foster Care
Asked by: Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party - Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey)
Thursday 29th February 2024

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he plans to top up national insurance contributions for individuals who received foster care allowances but were not allowed to work while fostering.

Answered by Nigel Huddleston - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

Foster carers can claim National Insurance (NI) credits known as ‘Credits for Parents and Carers’ (CPC) which count towards their State Pension. If a foster carer is unable to work due to their caring responsibilities, claiming CPC will prevent any gaps in their NI record as a result for State Pension purposes.

CPC can be claimed for periods from 6 April 2010 onwards and replaced Home Responsibilities Protection (HRP) which foster carers can claim for periods between 2003 – 2010.

Tax Avoidance
Asked by: Drew Hendry (Scottish National Party - Inverness, Nairn, Badenoch and Strathspey)
Friday 1st March 2024

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether his Department has made an assessment of the potential merits of publishing the written responses to its consultation entitled Tackling disguised remuneration, which closed on 5 October 2016.

Answered by Nigel Huddleston - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

The Government published a technical note and summary of responses to the Tackling Disguised Remuneration consultation on 5 December 2016: Tackling disguised remuneration. Technical note and summary of responses

The Government does not routinely publish individual consultation responses.
