Schools: Repairs and Maintenance
Asked by: Will Forster (Liberal Democrat - Woking) Monday 2nd March 2026 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps is she taking to ensure school buildings are adequately maintained for future use. Answered by Josh MacAlister - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education) This government has published its education estates strategy backed by a 10 year plan to deliver a decade of renewal to transform schools and colleges in England. It is supported by unprecedented long-term funding through to 2034/35. We are investing almost £3 billion per year by 2034/35 in capital maintenance for schools and colleges, rising from £2.4 billion in 2025/26.
We are also launching a new Renewal and Retrofit Programme, backed by over £700 million to 2029/30, to improve the condition of school and college buildings, increase resilience to climate change and protect schools from flooding so buildings can last for decades to come and are net zero ready. The Programme will start with schools in the East Midlands, Yorkshire and the Humber and the South East, and will be expanded from 2027 to other regions in England. We will set out further details in due course on how schools and colleges join the programme from 2027. |

Independent Case Examiner: Standards
Asked by: Will Forster (Liberal Democrat - Woking) Wednesday 4th March 2026 Question to the Department for Work and Pensions: To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the longest time it has taken was for a case to be assigned a caseworker at the Independent Case Examiner in the latest period for which data is available. Answered by Andrew Western - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Work and Pensions) The average time taken from complaint receipt to allocation to an investigator (based on cases in investigation on 31 January 2026) was 26.62 weeks. Despite increased demand levels, this is a significant improvement compared to January 2024, when the average wait time was 56.08 weeks.
Of those cases in investigation on 31 January 2026, the case which had waited the longest took 45.29 weeks to be allocated to an investigator from the date it was received at ICE.
The Independent Case Examiner’s office continually seeks to improve further. |

Social Security Benefits: Appeals
Asked by: Will Forster (Liberal Democrat - Woking) Thursday 5th March 2026 Question to the Ministry of Justice: To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the average wait is for a tribunal date to be set to appeal decisions made by the Department for Work and Pensions. Answered by Sarah Sackman - Minister of State (Ministry of Justice) The information requested is not held centrally.
Waiting times are calculated from receipt of the appeal to the final disposal decision. The final outcome of any appeal is not necessarily achieved at its first listed hearing so we are unable to extract data about waiting times for tribunal hearing dates. |

Gurkhas: Workplace Pensions
Asked by: Will Forster (Liberal Democrat - Woking) Thursday 5th March 2026 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he plans to review the 1948 Gurkha Pension Scheme to ensure parity with the Armed Forces Pension Scheme for all pre-2007 Gurkha veterans. Answered by Louise Sandher-Jones - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Ministry of Defence) The Government greatly values the exceptional and longstanding contribution made by Gurkha soldiers to the United Kingdom. Since 2007, Gurkhas have received the same pension under the Armed Forces Pension Scheme as the rest of the UK Armed Forces. For those who served prior to 2007, for the large majority, the 1948 Gurkha Pension Scheme provides a pension at least as good, and in many cases better, than that given to their British counterparts with identical periods of service.
Whilst Defence recognises that the position on historic Gurkha pension arrangements is a source of grievance for some members of the Gurkha community, it should be noted that both the Government and Courts consider that the arrangements are fair and were designed to reflect the context of the period during which scheme was open. In addition, a key principle for public service pensions, maintained by governments over many decades is that no retrospective improvements are made to pensions in payment. To do so would mean that improvements of any kind would become unaffordable for Government.
While we are unable to change the terms of the Gurkha Pension Scheme, I am committed to listening to concerns directly and exploring alternative ways to meet the welfare needs of the Gurkha veteran community, both in the UK and Nepal. On 16 December 2025, I met with officials from the Government of Nepal and representatives of the G10 to discuss Gurkha welfare issues. These discussions reinforced the strong and ongoing collaboration between the Ministry of Defence and the Gurkha veteran community. I have asked officials to meet again with Gurkha representatives early this year, and I look forward to continuing dialogue with the Government of Nepal in the spring.
