Asked

What steps he is taking with Cabinet colleagues to help reduce emissions by increasing the use of public transport.

Reply

This Government is committed to delivering greener transport and supporting the missions to kickstart economic growth and to make Britain a clean energy superpower. The Department is working across government and the transport sector to turn this vision to reality. This includes beginning the overhaul of public transport services and accelerating active travel infrastructure deployment. Changes that will make lower-carbon options an attractive choice for most people.

Asked

Whether he plans to remove the £50 million cap on reparation payments to LGBT veterans, in the context of the value of average payments that would be provided to those veterans under that cap.

Reply

We deeply regret the treatment of LGBT Service personnel between 1967 and 2000, which was wholly unacceptable and does not reflect today’s Armed Forces. We are fully committed to ensuring this issue receives Parliamentary scrutiny. We have already implemented 32 of the 49 recommendations from the LGBT veterans review and we are working with experts across Government to establish an appropriate financial redress scheme. We will provide more details later this year.
