Sustainable Farming Incentive: Organic Farming
Asked by: Sarah Gibson (Liberal Democrat - Chippenham) Monday 2nd March 2026 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether he plans to retain dedicated payment rates for (a) organic conversion and (b) organic maintenance within the revised Sustainable Farming Incentive. Answered by Angela Eagle - Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Yes, recent announcements have confirmed that DEFRA is retaining dedicated payment rates for organic conversion.

Park Homes: Managers
Asked by: Sarah Gibson (Liberal Democrat - Chippenham) Monday 2nd March 2026 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how many applications for Fit and Proper Person status have been (a) granted, (b) refused and (c) granted subject to conditions since The Mobile Homes (Requirement for Manager of Site to be Fit and Proper Person) (England) Regulations 2020 came into force. Answered by Matthew Pennycook - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government) The fit and proper person test, which applies to a site owner or the person appointed to manage a site, is intended to ensure that those managing park home sites are competent to do so.
Where properly applied by local authorities, the legislation has been shown to be effective.
Local authorities are responsible for administering the fit and proper person test. They are required to publish and maintain a register of persons they are satisfied are fit and proper persons to manage a park home site in their area. The information contained in these registers is held locally and is not held centrally.
My Department will continue to monitor the operation of the test and consider whether any changes are required. |
