Written Answers
Environment Protection: Industry
Asked by: Lauren Edwards (Labour - Rochester and Strood)
Monday 18th November 2024

Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what progress he has made on establishing the Office for Clean Energy Jobs; and when he plans to publish its terms of reference.

Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)

The Office for Clean Energy Jobs (‘the Office’) has been established within DESNZ. The Office will focus on developing a skilled workforce in core energy and net zero sectors, crucial to meeting our mission to make the UK a clean energy superpower. Recognising the critical workforce challenges within the energy transition, the Office is dedicated to ensuring that clean energy jobs are not only abundant, but also of high quality, focussing on fair pay, favourable terms, and good working conditions.

The Office is actively engaging with key stakeholders, including trade unions and industry leaders, to keep job quality at the forefront of our efforts. Grangemouth will be among the first areas that the Office will work with, as part of the joint UK and Scottish Government investment plan. DESNZ will also come on board as a strategic partner to develop a skills passport to support workers to transition to the clean energy sector.

Financial Services: Euro
Asked by: Lauren Edwards (Labour - Rochester and Strood)
Monday 25th November 2024

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what discussions she has had with her European Union counterparts on the future of EU denominated clearing in the UK beyond June 2025.

Answered by Tulip Siddiq - Economic Secretary (HM Treasury)

The EU took the decision in early 2022 to extend its equivalence decision for UK central counterparties, made under Article 25 of the European Market Infrastructure Regulation, until June 2025. Equivalence decisions are made on a unilateral basis by EU authorities and it is therefore a decision for EU authorities on whether this is extended. The UK Government is committed to maintain and strengthen our high standards for CCP regulation.

Select Committee Inquiry
3 Dec 2024
Review of the 2024 general election
Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 27 Jan 2025)


Following the publication of the Electoral Commission report on the general election 2024, the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee are considering the issue of the administration, process and conduct of the 2024 general election and how these could be improved for future elections.

Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry.

Public Bodies
Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 7 Feb 2025)


Governments have created Public Bodies when it is felt that certain functions are best conducted outside the normal departmental structures and at some distance from direct ministerial control. There are currently around 500, though classification can be vague. They vary hugely in terms of their size, governance arrangements, and the types of roles they perform. They are ‘owned’ by their sponsoring department but subject to Cabinet Office and HM Treasury guidance. This states that that they should only be created and continue to operate as a last resort and when:

  • A Public Body is required to perform a highly technical function
  • It is required to perform activities that require political impartiality
  • It needs to act independently to establish facts?

However, new ones continue to be created: the Government has launched several in its first months and plans for others have been announced.
