To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, when a Minister from his Department last made an official visit to Vale of Clwyd constituency.
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, when a Minister from his Department last made an official visit to Vale of Clwyd constituency.
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State and I both live in Wales and serve Welsh constituencies. We have a consistent presence in Wales as we conduct many visits, events and meetings in Wales on a regular basis.
Details of Ministerial visits and meetings are published on the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales’ website and in Quarterly Ministerial Transparency Returns. In addition, visits and meetings conducted in support of the Wales Office priorities are published in the Office of the Secretary of State for Wales Annual Report and Accounts.
The UK Government has provided extensive support to Vale of Clwyd. A typical household in Wales has received almost £2000 in UK Government support to help with the cost of living. This includes around 200,000 payments delivered in Vale of Clwyd through the Energy Bills Support Scheme. During the Covid-19 pandemic around 11,000 jobs were supported through the furlough scheme, around £23 million was claimed through the Self-Employment Income Support Scheme and around £62 million was given to businesses through government-backed business loans.
The UK Government has also supported innovation within Vale of Clwyd with around £100,000 awarded by Innovate UK since April 2019. Vale of Clwyd has also received over £25,000 through the Multi-Sport Grassroots Facilities Programme to level up local sports facilities.
In addition, Denbighshire, the local authority for the Vale of Clwyd constituency, is receiving over £25 million from the UK Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund. The Vale of Clwyd is also benefitting from over £300,000 for two Community Ownership Fund projects. Vale of Clwyd will also benefit from the £240 million North Wales Growth Deal.
This Government is investing in Wales like never before; over £790 million in four City and Regional Growth Deals covering the whole of Wales, £585 million for local authorities to invest through the UK Shared Prosperity Fund, including over £100 million for the Multiply adult numeracy programme, £330 million in capital investment through the Levelling Up Fund and £3.2 million to preserve community assets through the Community Ownership Fund. Wales will benefit from two Freeports backed by £52 million, the British Business Bank’s new £130m Regional Investment Fund, and from Project Gigabit which will enable hard to reach communities to access lightning-fast gigabit capable broadband.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many armed forces veterans in Clwyd South constituency are in receipt of funds from the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme.
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, how many armed forces veterans in Clwyd South constituency are in receipt of funds from the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme.
The Armed Forces and Reserve Forces Compensation Scheme came into force on 6 April 2005 to pay compensation for injury, illness or death attributable to Service that occurred on or after that date. It replaced the previous compensation arrangements provided by the War Pensions Scheme and the attributable elements of the Armed Forces and Reserve Forces Pensions Scheme. Tax-free lump sum awards are paid to all Service personnel and veterans as compensation for pain and suffering for an injury or illness that is predominantly caused or made worse by Service. Where a lump sum award has been made at tariff levels 1-11 (reflecting a more serious injury/illness), the claimant will also be awarded a tax-free index-linked income stream known as a Guaranteed Income Payment (GIP). A GIP will be paid from service termination for life to recognise long-term loss of earnings.
The most recent statistics on the number of armed forces pension and compensation recipients by Parliamentary constituency is published on the Gov.uk website and can be found at the following link:

A further update will be published in August 2020.

They may rightly feel that their evidence is transient, disposable and not worth safeguarding.
