Written Answers
Abandoned Vehicles
Asked by: Josh Babarinde (Liberal Democrat - Eastbourne)
Wednesday 15th October 2025

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

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what steps his Department is taking to support local authorities in dealing with abandoned vehicles.

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

Councils have a duty to remove abandoned vehicles from land in the open air and roads (including private roads). Guidance to help councils comply with this duty is available here: Abandoned vehicles: local authority responsibilities - GOV.UK

Councils can take enforcement action against people who abandon vehicles by issuing a fixed penalty notice or prosecuting them.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what the average wait time is from initial assessment to an Education, Health, and Care Plan document being produced in East Sussex.

Answered by Georgia Gould - Minister of State (Education)

Special Educational Needs: Finance
Asked by: Josh Babarinde (Liberal Democrat - Eastbourne)
Friday 17th October 2025

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to page one of the First Report of the Public Accounts Committee of Session 2024-25, Support for children and young people with special educational needs, HC 353, what steps her Department is taking to provide adequate funding to meet the level of high special educational needs forecasted in that report.

Answered by Georgia Gould - Minister of State (Education)

The department is providing total high needs funding in England of over £12 billion in the 2025/26 financial year for children and young people with complex special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Of that total high needs funding, East Sussex County Council is being allocated over £94 million through the high needs funding block of the dedicated schools grant.

We are considering the funding required for future years and how it is to be allocated, following the conclusion of the recent spending review. Our objective is that future funding for SEND supports our plans for reforming the SEND system to boost children’s outcomes, which will be set out in further detail in a White Paper in the autumn.

The NHS Sussex Integrated Care Board is responsible for funding decisions relating to the provision of mental health care for people in the Eastbourne area.

Nationally, funding to expand evidence-based NHS Talking Therapies services has been prioritised, with the number of people completing a course of treatment expected to increase by 384,000 by 2028/29.
