Warm Homes Plan: Bristol
Asked by: Wera Hobhouse (Liberal Democrat - Bath) Wednesday 7th May 2025 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what estimate he has made of the reduction of the funding for home energy upgrades in the Warm Homes Local Grant compared to the Home Upgrade Grant 2 for Bristol City Council; and whether this represents a reallocation of resources in the Warm Homes Plan. Answered by Miatta Fahnbulleh - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) Bristol City Council’s consortium was awarded £13,458,463 under Warm Homes: Local Grant (WH:LG), which is ~£2m more than the £11,393,650 awarded under Home Upgrade Grant 2 (HUG2).
Whilst HUG2 was allocated £700m in 2021 by the previous government compared to WH:LG’s £500m in autumn 2024, this does not represent a resource reallocation under the Warm Homes Plan as these schemes are not comparable. |

Agriculture: Inheritance Tax
Asked by: Wera Hobhouse (Liberal Democrat - Bath) Monday 12th May 2025 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of proposed changes to Agricultural Property Relief on the (a) Agricultural Transition Plan and (b) Food Security Strategy. Answered by Daniel Zeichner - Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) The Agricultural Transition Plan was the policy of the previous Government and covers the period 2021 to 2024. This Government remains committed to supporting the farming industry by carrying on the transition away from payment for land ownership and towards paying to deliver public goods for the environment. This is why we are investing £5 billion of funding in the farming budget which this Government secured over a two-year period for sustainable farming and nature. More than 50,000 farm businesses and more than half of all farmed land is now being managed in Environmental Land Management (ELM) schemes, including over 38,000 multi-year live Sustainable Farming Incentive agreements covering 4.3 million hectares of land.
The food strategy is about working through partnership across the food system and Government to make our food system one that we can be proud of, protects British traditions, grows the economy, improves people’s health and strengthens food security. We are in the process of developing outcomes and delivery mechanisms for the food strategy, through a programme of stakeholder engagement, alongside expert advice and partnership across Government and the four nations. |

Animal Experiments
Asked by: Wera Hobhouse (Liberal Democrat - Bath) Thursday 8th May 2025 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what progress she has made on ending the use of forced swim tests since writing to the (a) Department for Science, Innovation and Technology and (b) UKRI requesting expedited research to find validated replacements. Answered by Dan Jarvis - Minister of State (Home Office) The Home Office wrote to the Department of Science, Innovation and Technology and the UKRI in February 2024 to consider the recommendation to request further research into non-animal methods to replace the Forced Swim Test (FST). The Home Office Regulator has since reviewed all licences authorising the use of the FST under the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986 and fully implemented the recommendations of the Animals in Science Committee. The number of project licences that authorises the forced swim test in Great Britain has decreased from nine on the 1 March 2024, to a current total of only four licences. All of these licences are due to expire by 2028. This Government has set a manifesto commitment to “partner with scientists, industry, and civil society as we work towards the phasing out of animal testing” and will publish a strategy to support the development, validation and uptake of alternative methods to animal testing later this year. This strategy supports the current scientific direction on reducing and ultimately eliminating the use of the FST (www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0273230021001434). |

Asked by: Wera Hobhouse (Liberal Democrat - Bath) Thursday 8th May 2025 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many active licences there are for the authorised use of the forced swim test.

Eating Disorders: Death
Asked by: Wera Hobhouse (Liberal Democrat - Bath) Tuesday 13th May 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to ensure the accurate recording of deaths related to eating disorders; and what steps he is taking with the (a) National Medical Examiner, (b) Office for National Statistics and (c) Coroners' Society of England and Wales to increase understanding of how eating disorders contribute to deaths. Answered by Ashley Dalton - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) It is important that all deaths are recorded accurately, and it is right that the extent to which eating disorders and other factors have caused or contributed to deaths should be explored further, in collaboration with stakeholders including the National Medical Examiner, the Office for National Statistics, and the Coroners' Society of England and Wales. The National Medical Examiner’s Good Practice Series No. 7 on mental health and eating disorders, published in June 2022, makes it clear to medical examiners how mental health conditions, including eating disorders, should be recorded on the medical certificate of cause of death. The Good Practice Series No. 7 is available at the following link: |
