The Government is taking steps to ensure large housing developments have access to effective public transport links through the National Planning Policy Framework, which states that significant development should be focused on locations which are or can be made sustainable, through limiting the need to travel and offering a genuine choice of transport modes, which can include public transport links.

In addition, contributions from developers play an important role in delivering the infrastructure that new homes require.  The Government is reforming the existing system of developer contributions by introducing a new Infrastructure Levy through the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill. The new Levy aims to be more effective in ensuring that important infrastructure such as effective public transport links accompany new development.

Government plans to introduce legislation for micromobility when parliamentary time allows. The legislation would subsequently enable regulations to be made surrounding e-scooters. No decisions have been made on the details of the regulations for e-scooters and we will consult before any new arrangements come into force.

Government has committed £2.5 billion since 2020 to support the transition to zero emission vehicles, with funding to offset their higher upfront cost, and to accelerate the rollout of chargepoint infrastructure.

In many cases, electric vehicles (EVs) are already cheaper to own and run than a petrol or diesel equivalent. While EVs do cost more to buy outright today than their petrol/diesel equivalents, the market for more affordable zero emission cars is growing rapidly – with 24 models currently priced under £32,000 compared to 15 just a year ago.

The original forecast figure for the Eat Out to Help Out scheme was £500 million. This estimate was based on the 2018 ONS Annual Business Survey turnover data for the relevant sectors, along with the Spring Budget consumption forecast, and was published in the Plan for Jobs 2020. This can be found under table 1 here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/a-plan-for-jobs-documents/a-plan-for-jobs-2020.

The amount paid under the scheme was £840 million, due to the popularity of the scheme and its effectiveness in meeting the policy objectives of incentivising consumer use of restaurants, and other such establishments, and protecting jobs in hospitality.

Probation is operating under an exceptional delivery model which prioritises public protection and offender management in the community.

Probation officers continue supervising in person those who pose the highest risk ensuring the monitoring of high-risk offenders remains as tough as it always is.

At the same time, we are supervising lower-risk offenders using more frequent video and telephone calls.

We have set up Homelessness Prevention Taskforces to support offenders who are being temporarily released from prison as part of efforts to keep prisons safe during this period. These teams are working with the police to carry out the relevant risk assessments, including checks on domestic abuse and safeguarding issues.
