Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if they have considered applying an age limit for jet ski use.

Answered by Keir Mather - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The Department for Transport has no current plans to introduce an age limit for jet ski use. Powers are available to ports and local authorities to place restrictions on use, and they remain best placed to respond appropriately to local conditions. National legislation ensures that anyone who uses a powered recreational craft in a dangerous manner can be held accountable for their actions. Guidance on safe use is available from the Maritime and Coastguard Agency.

Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of levels of private sector investment in clean energy industries since July 2024.

Answered by Ed Miliband - Foreign Secretary

Since July 2024, over £100 billion of private investment has been announced into UK clean energy industries, with more money coming into this country by way of foreign investment in clean energy than any other industrial strategy sector over the past 10-years.

That has only happened because of the confidence of business in the clarity of the government’s mission and our commitment to it.

The result is investment flowing directly into our communities, creating good jobs and higher living standards in every part of Britain.

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps she is taking to ensure Free Breakfast Clubs include the most nutritional food possible.

Answered by Olivia Bailey

Food served at free breakfast clubs must meet the School Food Standards. The standards set out the types of food that should be served and how often and are designed to help children develop healthy eating habits and ensure they receive the nutrition needed for the school day.

The government is committed to half of all food served in public settings being either locally sourced or certified to higher environmental standards.

The School Food Standards allow school chefs and cooks creative freedom to adapt to the preferences of the children at their school, source seasonal or local food, and take advantage of price fluctuations.

We recently consulted on proposed changes to the School Food Standards in England. We are now reviewing the responses and feedback, and we will consider guidance for the new standards in due course.

Presently, schools can voluntarily follow the Government Buying Standards for food and catering, which includes advice around sourcing their school food.

The department is working closely with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs as they develop the Good Food Cycle vision.

The Sahel is one of the world's most complex and protracted development contexts. The region faces overlapping humanitarian, governance, security and climate challenges that have contributed to widespread displacement, food insecurity and declining development indicators. Armed conflict, violent extremism and organised crime continue to undermine state institutions and limit access to basic services across much of the region.
