Written Question
London Capital and Finance: Insolvency
Wednesday 10th April 2019

Asked by: Steve Reed (Labour (Co-op) - Streatham and Croydon North)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what discussions he has had with the Financial Conduct Authority on the collapse of London Capital & Finance Ltd.

Answered by John Glen

The Government takes very seriously the failure of London Capital and Finance (LCF). On 1 April, I wrote to the Chair at the Financial Conduct Authority, Charles Randell, to say I will use powers under the Financial Services Act 2012 to direct the FCA to launch an investigation into the events at LCF and the circumstances surrounding them. This followed a request to me from Charles Randell to launch such an investigation.

Written Question
Coinage
Wednesday 20th March 2019

Asked by: Steve Reed (Labour (Co-op) - Streatham and Croydon North)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether the commemorative 50 pence coin issued to mark the UK's departure from the EU has been minted.

Answered by Robert Jenrick

Currently, no commemorative coins to mark the UK’s departure from the EU have been minted. However, as is standard procedure at The Royal Mint, a small number of trial coins have been produced. The production of trial coins does not incur any cost to the taxpayer. The commemorative 50 pence coin to mark the UK leaving the European Union will be made available following our departure.

"My hon. Friend is absolutely right. As I said, 600 youth centres have closed, and all the activities that could have gone on in them have been taken away. That is a crying shame.

Sadly, the Government have not finished with that agenda; there is worse to come. Their new …..."

In particular, it helps people who are looking for work to develop the skills that they need to gain employment. I hope the Minister will take that away and …..."

Asked by: Steve Reed (Labour (Co-op) - Streatham and Croydon North)

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to page 75 of the Government's Civil Society Strategy published in August 2018, what the timetable is for the review of Social Investment Tax Relief.

At Budget 2018, the government confirmed it will review the Social Investment Tax Relief in 2019. This is in line with commitments made when the scheme was expanded in 2017. The Call for Evidence will be published in the spring and we will publish a response later this year.
