Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will make an assessment of the adequacy of the availability of radiotherapy services to patients in Devon.

Answered by Ashley Dalton - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care)

We will improve National Health Service waiting time performance, so patients are diagnosed faster and have quicker access to the treatments they require, including radiotherapy. However, we do recognise that there is much more to be done to ensure that this is the reality for all patients across the country, including Devon.

Radiotherapy is vital in cancer care, and it remains a key priority for the Government to reduce radiotherapy waiting times and provide the highest quality of treatment available. This is why the Government has invested £70 million of central funding on 28 new LINAC radiotherapy machines across the country to replace older, less efficient radiotherapy machines. The new machines were allocated across England and funding was allocated to trusts using criteria that NHS England developed. These criteria focused on the age of the machine being replaced, the proportion of older machines in use within the trust, and the trust’s performance on radiotherapy. The University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust, the local provider for cancer services in Devon, has been awarded funding for a replacement machine.

The forthcoming National Cancer Plan will include further details on how we will ensure all patients have access to the latest treatments and technology, ultimately driving up this country’s cancer survival rates.

Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, when she plans to respond to the email from the hon. Member for Newton Abbot dated 24 July 2025.

Answered by Alison McGovern - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government)

The former minister responded to the hon. Member’s enquiry via correspondence on 29 August. I have sent a copy of the response to his office for reference.

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to her Statement on Strengthening border security and reforms to the asylum system of 1 September 2025, whether applicants to the Ukrainian Permission Extension scheme who applied in Spring 2022 will have these finished in Autumn 2028.

Answered by Mike Tapp - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office)

On 1 September, the Home Secretary announced in parliament that the Ukraine Permission Extension scheme (UPE) would be extended for an additional 24 months to enable those eligible to obtain a further period of permission following their initial permission under UPE. More detail will follow in due course.

We continue to keep the Ukraine Schemes and the evolving situation in Ukraine under active review.

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many (a) individuals, (b) businesses and (c) disability rights groups will the Timms review consult.

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

We are committed to co-producing the review with disabled people, the organisations that represent them, clinicians, experts, Members of Parliament and other stakeholders to ensure that a wide range of views and voices are heard.

We have engaged over the summer to consider the process for the work of the review and consider how it can best be co-produced to ensure that expertise from a range of different perspectives is drawn upon.

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to the oral contribution to the hon. Member for Sutton and Cheam on 31 March 2025, Vol. 765, column 25, page 23, if she will update the House on developments in relation to arrests made at the Quaker meeting house in Westminster.

Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Home Office)

Decisions relating to police operations, including arrests, are made independently by the police.

Ministers do not intervene in individual cases or operational matters, not because of any lack of concern, but to respect and uphold the principle of policing free from political influence.

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if her Department will make an assessment of the potential impact of the time taken by HMRC to issue (a) Corporation Tax Authentication Codes and (b) VAT registration numbers on small businesses; and what steps she is taking to reduce that time.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury)

HMRC aim to process 80% of VAT registration applications within 40 working days of receipt.

They processed 80.25% of VAT registrations within 40 days of receipt in 2022/23, 88.08% in 2023/24 and 94.73% in 2024/25.

Improving day-to-day performance is a key priority for HMRC. The HMRC Transformation Roadmap, published in July, sets out how they will deliver improved services which will mean a better experience for taxpayers, agents, and businesses.

There is no authentication code for Corporation Tax registration. For customers who register with Companies House, registration for Corporation Tax is automated. Information sharing means that HMRC systems create a customer record within 48 hours, without the need for any additional customer input. The customer’s unique taxpayer record is then sent to them by post. When a customer enrols to the Government Gateway for Corporation Tax, an activation code is issued automatically by post.

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what performance indicators are used by the HMRC for the registration of (a) VAT registration numbers and (b) corporation tax authentication codes; and how often such targets were met in each of the last three years.

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department plans to review capital funding allocation processes for new GP premises, in the context of the potential impact of the integrated care board framework on such expansions.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)

The Government recognises the importance of strategic, value for money investments in capital projects, such as new general practice (GP) facilities, significant upgrades or other targeted capital investments. The Department is currently reviewing capital requirements in line with the Government’s priorities and as part of our preparations for future budget allocations and guidance to the National Health Service on multi-year planning.

In May, we announced schemes which will benefit from the £102 million Primary Care Utilisation and Modernisation Fund to deliver upgrades this financial year to GP surgeries across England. These schemes will create additional clinical space to enable practices to see more patients, boost productivity and improve patient care.

Integrated care systems’ estates infrastructure strategies have been developed to create a long-term plan for future estate requirements and investment for each local area and its needs. These strategies help take the existing and future general practice and primary care estate into account when considering how best to deliver local services including the development of a Neighbourhood Service.

Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if she will take steps to improve the MP hotlines for Members staff.

Answered by Andrew Western - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Work and Pensions)

The Department recently streamlined the MP hotline service for Universal Credit, by consolidating multiple telephone numbers into a single national contact number.

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the average time taken is for GP practices to secure funding for expansion through ICBs; and how his Department plans to reduce that time.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)

The Government recognises the importance of strategic, value for money investments in capital projects, such as new facilities, significant upgrades, or other targeted capital investments.

There is no average time for securing funding for expansions as each application is treated individually and multiple factors such as planning permission, recurrent revenue funding associated with the reimbursable elements, and legal agreements to protect the investment must be considered for each application.

The Department continues to actively seek ways to improve and streamline our processes and we have announced our aim to fundamentally reform the financial system in the recently published 10-Year Health Plan. In parallel, a standard, simplified Grant Agreement has been developed and is being tested for capital schemes under £144,000. This is supporting a fast-track process for securing grant agreements for relatively low value schemes. We will continue to review all elements of the premises development approvals process to help improve productivity and reduce the overall time to secure approval and deliver expansions of primary care premises.

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of the time taken for Companies House to reconcile their information with HMRC on the ability of new businesses to (a) employ staff, (b) register for PAYE and (c) issue VAT invoices.

Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury)

The Government recognises the importance of efficient and timely coordination between Companies House and HMRC in supporting the operational readiness of newly incorporated businesses. There is currently a timely data-feed between Companies House and HMRC.

HMRC continue to review how improved data-sharing and increased automation can support new businesses and reduce administrative burdens.

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 planned £8.5 million reduction in funding for the British Transport Police Funding on the policing of crime on the rail network.

Answered by Simon Lightwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The budget for the British Transport Police for the financial year 2025/26 is £415m - a 5.9% increase on the year before.

The British Transport Police’s (BTP) budget is set by the British Transport Police Authority (BTPA). It is the executive non-departmental public body that oversees the Force and is their employer. BTPA sets the BTP’s budget annually following proposals from the Force and views from industry. BTP work closely with BTPA and industry operators to make final resourcing decisions with their agreed budget.

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent discussions she has had with the Transport Salaried Staff Association on the British Transport Police's funding.

Answered by Simon Lightwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The Secretary of State for Transport met with the General Secretary of the Transport Salaried Staff Association (TSSA), Maryam Eslamdoust on 2^nd April 2025, following a meeting with the Rail Minister on 12 March.

These were productive introductory meetings between the General Secretary of TSSA and the Secretary of State for Transport and Rail Minister.

Whilst funding was discussed at these meetings, the British Transport Police’s (BTP) budget is set by the British Transport Police Authority (BTPA). It is the executive non-departmental public body that oversees the Force and is their employer. BTPA sets the BTP’s budget annually following proposals from the Force and views from industry.

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what assessment she has made of the adequacy of funding levels for the British Transport Police in Devon.

Answered by Simon Lightwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The British Transport Police’s (BTP) budget is set by the British Transport Police Authority (BTPA) which is the executive non-departmental public body that oversees the Force and is their employer. BTPA sets the BTP’s budget annually following proposals from the Force and views from industry.

Like other police forces the BTP have operational independence, so the BTP Chief Constable and Chief Officers use a variety of data to inform the deployment of officers and other resources, including demand for their presence in Devon. This capacity planning process ensures that BTP has the best information to ensure officers across the network, including in Devon, are in the right place at the right time.

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure that local decision-making by ICBs is in line with national strategic priorities for primary care infrastructure growth.

Answered by Karin Smyth - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)

The Government is committed to delivering a National Health Service that is fit for the future, and we recognise delivering high quality NHS healthcare requires the right infrastructure in the right places.

Surgery expansion and new builds are considered by local integrated care boards (ICB’s) under the auspices of The National Health Service (General Medical Services - Premises Costs) Directions 2024, with further information available at the following link:

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/663cd8d2bd01f5ed32793867/nhs_general-medical-services-premises-costs_directions-2024.pdf

This guidance sets out the clear and transparent criteria for the application process and provide the ability for ICBs to invest capital into new primary care premises, which was not supported under earlier versions.

To further support general practice contractors and ICBs, NHS England has published two documents, the Guide to the changes to primary care premises policy document, to provide an overview of the changes to the directions, and the Primary care capital grants policy document, to provide guidance on the investment of capital. Both documents are available, respectively, at the following two links:

https://www.england.nhs.uk/long-read/guide-to-the-changes-to-primary-care-premises-policy/

https://www.england.nhs.uk/long-read/primary-care-capital-grants-policy/

For this financial year, 2025/26, the Government is providing £102 million of capital investment into upgrading the general practice estate across England in the form of the Utilisation and Modernisation Fund. Using targeted investment to create additional clinical capacity enabling practices to see more patients, boost productivity, and improve patient care. Most of the schemes will involve the repurposing of existing accommodation with a small number of modest surgery extensions.

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if he will make it his policy to stop UK (a) owned and (b) insured LNG carriers from transporting Russian products.

Answered by Stephen Doughty - Minister of State (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

The UK has taken extensive action to limit energy revenues that fund Russia's illegal invasion of Ukraine. This includes Russian revenues from Liquified Natural Gas (LNG). Importing Russian LNG into the UK has been prohibited since January 2023. We continue to explore all options for constraining Russian revenue further and we do not comment on future potential actions as to do so could undermine their effectiveness.

Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 5 September 2025 to Question 73442 on Deposit Return Schemes: Newton Abbot, if she will make it her policy to ensure that remote collection points are available in villages without a (a) supermarket, (b) grocery store, (c) convenience store and (d) newsagent.

Answered by Mary Creagh - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs)

The scheme administrator, UK Deposit Management Organisation Ltd. (UK DMO), is responsible for ensuring there is a comprehensive network of return points so that consumers can easily return their containers, including in rural areas.

Other types of organisations that sell in-scope drinks containers – including hospitality venues, food-to-go stores, schools, hospitals, gyms, sports centres and community centres – although not mandated to host a return point, can apply to operate one voluntarily. This has been popular in other international DRSs as organisations see the benefit of increased footfall.

UK DMO will undertake regular reviews of the return point network to consider the number, location and accessibility of return points.

Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what assessment she has made of the potential impact of digital exclusion on (a) elderly and (b) disabled people who do not have a reliable internet connection.

Answered by Ian Murray - Minister of State (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology)

Those who don’t have access to, or cannot use digital technologies, including older people and disabled people, are likely to pay more for certain transactions, have worse health outcomes, and find it more difficult to manage their finances. Knock-on effects of digital exclusion can include difficulty accessing essential services and isolation from their community.

That’s why in February, we published the Digital Inclusion Action Plan which outlines the first five actions we are taking over the next year on digital inclusion. One of these actions was to launch the £9.5mn Digital Inclusion Innovation Fund to support and expand local community initiatives to get people online, which we did in August. All funded projects will support at least one of the focus demographic groups, which include older and disabled people.

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 20 February 2025 to Question 30304 on Gaza: Internally Displaced People, what estimate his Department has made of the number of people displaced from Gaza City since July 2025.

Answered by Hamish Falconer - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office)

It has been estimated that at least 90 per cent of Gaza's population of 1.9 million has been displaced, many of whom have been displaced several times, that 92 per cent of housing units have been destroyed and 1.4 million people are currently in desperate need of emergency shelter. Following the ground incursion on 14 August on Gaza City and North Gaza, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) report significant displacement observed from north to south with 33,153 movements recorded, further straining already overcrowded areas.

As the UK said in our joint statement with overseas partners on 10 August, we condemn the Government of Israel's decision to further expand its military operations in Gaza, which risks violating international humanitarian law, endangering the lives of all civilians in Gaza, including the remaining hostages, and worsening the already catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza, leading to further death and mass displacement of Palestinian civilians. We call on Israel to allow the UN and humanitarian partners to deliver unrestricted flows of humanitarian aid to alleviate this crisis, including shelter kits.
