Asked by: Mary Kelly Foy (Labour - City of Durham) Tuesday 8th July 2025 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment her Department has made of the potential implications for her policies of the report of the National Literacy Trust entitled Children and young people’s writing in 2025, published in June 2025. Answered by Catherine McKinnell - Minister of State (Education) I refer my hon. Friend the member for the City of Durham to the answer of 03 July 2025 to Question 62713. |
Visas: Digital Technology
Asked by: Mary Kelly Foy (Labour - City of Durham) Tuesday 8th July 2025 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what additional steps her Department plans to take to improve the process of accessing evisa accounts. Answered by Seema Malhotra - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Education) (Equalities) eVisas are a key part of delivering a border and immigration system which will be more digital and streamlined, a change that will enhance the applicant’s experience and increase the immigration system’s security and efficiency. The UKVI account provides people with the ability to use online services to ‘view and prove’ their immigration status, including their rights to rent, work, study and access public services, by sharing relevant information about their permissions in the UK. People can easily keep the Home Office updated with any changes in their details or documentation using their account. For example, they can tell us about changes to their name, nationality or a new passport. Our aim is that new and existing immigration status holders will have access to a UKVI account and their eVisa, and that creating a UKVI account is a smooth and straightforward process. To help people create and use their UKVI accounts, we have provided information and guidance videos on GOV.UK which show users how to access and use their UKVI account. We have listened to feedback from users and have plans to make our GOV.UK pages easier to follow. These planned improvements are currently being drafted and are scheduled for release later in 2025. We are continually improving the functionality and ease of use of the UKVI account. For example, we recently added the facility for a person without an identity document to create an account and we will add the ability to link a Home Office issued travel document to a UKVI account later in 2025. Monitoring of the system since the end of December 2024 suggests that for most people the transition to eVisa has gone smoothly. By the end of April 2025 over 4.3 million people had created an online (UKVI) account to access their eVisa, with the latest statistics published on GOV.UK on 22 May 2025. Further statistics will be published in due course. Between Q4 2019 and Q1 2025, the 'view and prove' service has seen over 41.9 million views by individuals and over 6.3 million views by organisations checking immigration status. Should anyone find themselves needing support with creating their UKVI account or getting access to their eVisa, the latest updates and guidance can be found on GOV.UK We are continuing to listen to the views and concerns of stakeholders and users of our digital systems and aim to continually enhance the user experience wherever possible. We have also increased the number of support services available to vulnerable people and have delivered £4m of grant funding to 72 voluntary and community sector organisations across the UK to support people to be able to set up and access their eVisa accounts. |
Mobile Phones: Broadband
Asked by: Mary Kelly Foy (Labour - City of Durham) Tuesday 8th July 2025 Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology: To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what steps he is taking to help improve mobile telephone signal in (a) Brancepeth Village, (b) County Durham and (c)) across the country. Answered by Chris Bryant - Minister of State (Department for Culture, Media and Sport) Ofcom reports that 4G is available across 96% of the City of Durham constituency from all four mobile operators, while 5G (standalone and non-standalone) is available outside 94% of premises in the constituency from at least one operator. However, I know Ofcom data does not always reflect lived experience and I have raised my concern about this with Ofcom. I welcome their much improved online mobile coverage checker which went live on 26 June. I am keen to strengthen the mobile infrastructure across the UK, which is primarily the responsibility of the mobile operators, so I would urge the honourable member to engage directly with the mobile operators to encourage improvements in her patch. We continue to work closely with the mobile operators and are committed to ensuring we have the right policy and regulatory framework in place to support investment into mobile networks and competition in the market. |
