The Ministry of Defence (MOD) overall expenditure on water and sewerage, gas for fuel, and electricity is shown in the following table:
| £
million | |||
| Financial
year | Water
and
sewerage | Gas | Electricity |
| 2007-08 | 105 | 80 | 167 |
| 2008-09 | 104 | 120 | 205 |
| 2009-10 | 101 | 119 | 187 |
| 2010-11 | 100 | 93 | 184 |
| 2011-12 | 104 | 93 | 192 |
Water and sewerage costs are combined; providing a breakdown would incur disproportionate cost. The figures do not include expenditure by our trading funds as they lie outside the MOD accounting boundary.
Expenditure for Project Aquatrine has been included in the water and sewerage figures.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussions they have had with the regulators of utility companies about requiring utility companies to co-operate with public bodies in the planning of sustainable development.[HL4261]
To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussions they have had with the regulators of utility companies about requiring utility companies to co-operate with public bodies in the planning of sustainable development.[HL4261]
In 2011, the Government undertook a consultation on the draft Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 in which the bodies subject to the duty to co-operate were prescribed. This was a general public consultation and so enabled the regulators of utility companies to put forward their views. The consultation also specifically invited views on the list of bodies that should be subject to the duty.
A summary of the responses to that consultation was published on 27 March 2012 and is available on the departmental website at: https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/local-planning-regulations.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether there is a regulation in place which specifies the standard of repairs to the highway which should be carried out after work by utilities is concluded; who is responsible for enforcing this; and whether penalties are enforced.[HL3810]
To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether there is a regulation in place which specifies the standard of repairs to the highway which should be carried out after work by utilities is concluded; who is responsible for enforcing this; and whether penalties are enforced.[HL3810]
Yes there is. Section 70 of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 provides for a duty on the street works undertaker to reinstate the street. Where this does not happen an offence is committed. Section 71 of the New Roads and Street Works Act 1991
states that reinstatement by undertakers must comply with whatever specification may be prescribed for materials and standards of workmanship. The regulations which cover these sections are the Street Works (Reinstatement) Regulations 1992 and these are further described in the Code of Practice Specification for the Reinstatement of Openings in Highways (April 2010). Highway authorities have powers to inspect works and impose appropriate fines, and do so.

[holding answer 19 November 2012]: Treasury Ministers and officials meet with, and receive representations from, a wide range of organisations and individuals in the public and private sectors as part of the usual policymaking process.

The number of defendants proceeded against at magistrates courts and found guilty at all courts for the unlawful eviction of an occupier and the unlawful harassment of an occupier under the Protection from Eviction Act 1977 in England and Wales from 2004 to 2011 (latest available) is given in the tables. Figures are provided by police force area as the Ministry of Justice court proceedings database does not hold details of offences by local authority area.
Court proceedings data held centrally in an aggregated format do not separately identify individual offences under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985. Similarly it is not possible to separately identify the specified offences under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System.
Information on offences under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998 is not collated centrally by the Ministry of Justice.

Offences under S.1(2) Protection from Eviction Act
1977. 2 The figures given in the table on court proceedings relate to persons for whom these offences were the principal offences for which they were dealt with. When a defendant has been found guilty of two or more offences it is the offence for which the heaviest penalty is imposed. Where the same disposal is imposed for two or more offences, the offence selected is the offence for which the statutory maximum penalty is the most severe. 4 Every effort is made to ensure that the figures presented are accurate and complete. However, it is important to note that these data have been extracted from large administrative data systems generated by the courts and police forces. As a consequence, care should be taken to ensure data collection processes and their inevitable limitations are taken into account when those data are used. 4 Excludes Cardiff magistrates court records for June, July and August 2008.

Offences under S.1(3) Protection from Eviction Act
1977. 2 The figures given in the table on court proceedings relate to persons for whom these offences were the principal offences for which they were dealt with. When a defendant has been found guilty of two or more offences it is the offence for which the heaviest penalty is imposed. Where the same disposal is imposed for two or more offences, the offence selected is the offence for which the statutory maximum penalty is the most severe. 3 Every effort is made to ensure that the figures presented are accurate and complete. However, it is important to note that these data have been extracted from large administrative data systems generated by the courts and police forces. As a consequence, care should be taken to ensure data collection processes and their inevitable limitations are taken into account when those data are used. 4 Excludes Cardiff magistrates court records for June, July and August 2008.
