Doors: Fire Prevention
Asked by: Joshua Reynolds (Liberal Democrat - Maidenhead) Monday 13th October 2025 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether his Department has made an assessment of the potential merits of creating an accreditation scheme for fire door replacement works to allow approved contractors to carry out such works without requiring Building Safety Regulator approval. Answered by Samantha Dixon - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Housing, Communities and Local Government) The government introduced the higher-risk building control regime to ensure more stringent oversight and accountability during the design and construction of higher-risk buildings, backed by stronger enforcement and sanctions. All proposed higher-risk building work now must receive approval from the Building Safety Regulator (BSR) before starting. These changes are in line with Dame Judith Hackitt’s recommendations to improve the focus on compliance with building regulations and to ensure residents are, and feel, safe in their homes.
However, we are aware that there are concerns regarding the impacts of the delays and the difficulty in getting approval for certain types of high-volume work to existing higher-risk buildings, including the repair and replacement of fire doors. We are working closely with the BSR to address these current challenges and to ensure the regime is proportionate and fit for purpose.
Nevertheless, allowing certain types of higher-risk building work to progress without BSR oversight risks inconsistency in applying building regulations, potentially compromising safety standards and resulting in non-compliance. Therefore, any changes would need to be carefully considered, particularly while the sector is still getting to grips with the new regime.
Competent Person Schemes allow registered professionals and companies to self-certify their work as compliant with the building regulations. Operation of a scheme is voluntary, as is membership of a scheme. Scheme operators are authorised under paragraph 4A of Schedule 1 to the Building Act 1984 and are named in Schedule 3 to the Building Regulations 2010. After applying, they are assessed by the BSR and approved by MHCLG ministers. Before ministerial approval, applicants must demonstrate that they have the managerial, financial and technical ability to operate a scheme. This includes demonstrating compliance with the Conditions of Authorisation. At this time, no industry organisation has expressed interest in operating a Competent Person Scheme for the repair and/or replacement of fire doors. |

Property Development: Repairs and Maintenance
Asked by: Joshua Reynolds (Liberal Democrat - Maidenhead) Monday 13th October 2025 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether his Department plans to publish guidance for managing agents and freeholders on how costs should be allocated for remedial works relating to historic building defects when the developer is no longer in existence. Answered by Samantha Dixon - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Housing, Communities and Local Government) The Building Safety Act allows for civil cases to be brought against companies which were associated with those responsible for historic building defects, even when these responsible parties are no longer in existence or are making use of complex corporate structures to avoid their remediation responsibilities.
Guidance on how costs should be allocated for remedial works relating to historic building defects when the developer is no longer in existence (in which case costs are shared between government, leaseholders and freeholders) has already been published and can be found here: Remediation costs: what leaseholders do and do not have to pay - GOV.UK |

Hospitals: Food
Asked by: Joshua Reynolds (Liberal Democrat - Maidenhead) Monday 13th October 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what his Department’s policy is on the use of cash for food vendor payments in NHS hospitals. Answered by Karin Smyth - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care) The Department does not have a policy on the use of cash for the payment of food vendors in National Health Service hospitals. These decisions are taken locally by NHS organisations. |

Small Businesses: Billing
Asked by: Joshua Reynolds (Liberal Democrat - Maidenhead) Wednesday 15th October 2025 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether he plans to provide the Small Business Commissioner with additional powers to help tackle persistent late payment by large firms. Answered by Blair McDougall - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Business and Trade) This Government is committed to tackling late payments and supporting small businesses and the self-employed. We launched a consultation in July alongside the Plan for Small Business which closes on the 23rd of October which sets out measures we intend to bring forward in a package of primary legislation. As part the package, the Small Business Commissioner will be given stronger powers to ensure that they are able to tackle the poor payment practices head on. The consultation includes additional measures such as setting maximum payment terms and fining businesses that persistently pay their suppliers late. |

Answered by Blair McDougall - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Business and Trade) This Government is committed to tackling late payments and supporting small businesses and the self-employed.

Health Services: Finance
Asked by: Joshua Reynolds (Liberal Democrat - Maidenhead) Friday 17th October 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what structures are in place within the NHS to (a) oversee and (b) manage financial efficiency in healthcare settings; and whether his Department has considered establishing a dedicated executive function to support this work. Answered by Karin Smyth - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care) Financial efficiency within the National Health Service is managed primarily by integrated care boards (ICBs) and NHS trusts, which are responsible for local financial planning, budget control, and delivery of efficiency savings. Progress is monitored and supported by both NHS England regional and national teams including as part of the new Financial Performance and Improvement Programme. For example, as part of 2025/2026 planning, NHS England provided every provider and system with a tailored and benchmarked productivity and efficiency data pack setting out opportunities to support the development of efficiency and savings schemes. NHS England have also established an executive chaired group to oversee the development of a coherent, organisation-wide strategy and associated policies for delivering programmes to improve productivity and efficiency across the NHS. |

Night-time Economy: Taxation
Asked by: Joshua Reynolds (Liberal Democrat - Maidenhead) Friday 17th October 2025 Question to the HM Treasury: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps her Department is taking to support the night-time economy; and what assessment she has made of the potential impact of (a) VAT reductions, (b) business rates reform and (c) National Insurance threshold adjustments on the sustainability of late-night venues. Answered by Dan Tomlinson - Exchequer Secretary (HM Treasury) The Government recognises the importance of the night-time economy and the challenges faced by late-night venues.
At the Autumn Budget, a package of measures was introduced to support the hospitality sector, including those operating at night. The Employment Allowance has been more than doubled to £10,500, ensuring that over half of businesses with National Insurance liabilities will either gain or see no change this year.
A Tax Information and Impact Note was published alongside changes to employer NICs, and the Office for Budget Responsibility forecasts employment levels to increase over the coming years.
The small business multiplier has been frozen for 2025-26, and retail, hospitality and leisure business rates relief has been extended for one year at 40 per cent, up to a cash cap of £110,000 per business.
The Government intends to introduce permanently lower business rates multipliers for retail, hospitality and leisure properties with rateable values below £500,000 from 2026-27, providing much-needed certainty and support for RHL businesses. The rates for these new multipliers will be set at Budget 2025 so that the Government can take into account the revaluation outcomes, as well as the economic and fiscal context. When the new multipliers are set, HM Treasury intends to publish analysis of the effects of the new multiplier arrangements.
The Government keeps all areas of the tax system under review and changes to the tax system are made at fiscal events, in line with usual practice.
