Radicalism
Asked by: Giles Watling (Conservative - Clacton) Monday 22nd April 2024 Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities: To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, what steps he is taking with Cabinet colleagues to tackle anti-democratic extremism. Answered by Lee Rowley - Minister of State (Minister for Housing) On 14th March Government published its new definition of extremism, which identifies behaviour that seek to “to… undermine, overturn or replace the UK’s system of parliamentary democracy” as extremist. The Government is undergoing a formal process of identifying and naming extremists. Before elections, the Government stands up the election cell, which works with the Police and Home Office to monitor threats to our democratic systems or institutions. |

Electricity Generation
Asked by: Giles Watling (Conservative - Clacton) Tuesday 23rd April 2024 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, with reference to page 75 of her Department’s consultation entitled Review of Electricity Market Arrangements: second consultation, published on 12 March 2024, what assessment her Department has made of the potential impact on the power system if there was no role for unabated gas in 2035. Answered by Justin Tomlinson - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) We will need unabated gas in 2035 to play a small but important role when the wind does not blow or the sun does not shine. Our published Net Zero scenarios envisage a small but important role for unabated gas in 2035. Without a role for unabated gas, we would likely run an increased risk of blackouts. |

Nuclear Power: Taxation
Asked by: Giles Watling (Conservative - Clacton) Monday 22nd April 2024 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he plans to include nuclear (a) power generation and (b) fuel manufacture as sustainable activities within the UK Green Taxonomy. Answered by Bim Afolami - Economic Secretary (HM Treasury) The Government has stated its intention to include nuclear in the UK Green Taxonomy, subject to consultation. This will incentivise private investment in this important technology alongside renewables and other sectors that are key to reaching our Net Zero goal. The Government expects to publish the consultation on the UK Green Taxonomy shortly. |
