## Appendix M The Spot Urine Sample: Collecting And Processing For Urinary Iodine Measurement M.1 Introduction
Spot urine samples were collected from participants aged 4 years and over for measurement of urinary iodine concentration in order to estimate population iodine status. Iodine concentration in a single spot urine sample does not provide any information about the individual's iodine intake because the iodine concentration fluctuates widely depending on liquid intake and therefore how dilute the urine is, as well as being influenced by the individual's recent iodine intake. However the median concentration of iodine in spot urine samples collected for a population group is used to estimate population iodine status and thresholds for interpretation have been defined by the World Health Organization (WHO).1, a
## M.2 Ethical Approval
As described in appendix B ethical approval was granted by a Multi-centre Research Ethics Committee (MREC)b for all aspects of the survey protocol, including collection of the spot urine sample, measurement of iodine in the spot sample and for storing spot urine sample residues for potential use in future analyses related to nutrition and health (where consent was given).
## M.3 Consent
Information leaflets were provided for participants, including an appropriate version for children. Eligible participants aged 16 years and over were asked to give written consent. For children aged under 16 years, written consent was sought from a parent or legal guardian, with written assent from the child where possible.
## M.4 Exclusion From Participation In Providing A Spot Urine Sample
Participants were asked a series of screening questions to assess their eligibility for providing a spot urine sample. Participants under the age of 4 years, those using a urinary catheter, and those who were incontinent were not asked to provide a spot urine sample. Women and girls were requested not to provide a urine sample if they were menstruating.
## M.5 Interviewer Training, Procedures And Instructions
Information about the recruitment and training of interviewers is provided in appendix B. At the first interviewer visit,c interviewers were instructed to:
- check the participant's eligibility for providing a spot urine sample. If the participant
did not meet the eligibility criteria they were not asked to provide a sample
- ensure that the participant understood the spot urine collection procedures - confirm and obtain the appropriate written consents - ask the participant to pass urine (not from the first urine pass after waking) directly
into a labelled 30mL "universal" tube without touching the inside surface.
Participants were asked to avoid using sources of iodine contamination such as antiseptic sprays and wipes
- (after obtaining the spot urine sample) label the universal tube and the rigid outer
packaging with the participant's serial ID, date of birth, sex and collection date
- record the details of the collection in the CAPI program - leave the £5 spot urine sample promissory note with the participant
Immediately after the visit the interviewers were instructed to send the universal tube (inside the rigid outer packaging) to the Medical Research Council Elsie Widdowson Laboratory
(MRC EWL) in the pre-addressed postal pack by first class post at ambient temperature and to post the associated consent form to NatCen.
## M.6 Sample Tracking, Reception And Storage
On receipt of samples at MRC EWL, associated details (serial ID, date of birth and sample collection date) were recorded and cross checked with the database, to confirm the correct data. Urine samples were refrigerated at 5-8oC for up to 2 weeks before being aliquoted (after reaching room temperature) into 3 1.7mL aliquots of urine; this was modified if the spot urine sample was smaller than 5mL.The aliquots were then entered into ItemTracker and stored frozen at -20oC.
The collection and aliquot tubes were always new (and unwashed) and were of manufacturing types which had been spot checked for iodine content at MRC EWL, to avoid any inadvertent iodine contamination arising from the containers.
## M.6.1 Assay Auditing At Mrc Ewl
Samples were analysed in approximate order of receipt. Internal quality control samples were included to monitor precision and external quality assurance schemes were included where available in order to confirm the accuracy of the assays.

## Introduction
Forestry Statistics is a compilation of statistics on woodland, forestry and primary wood processing in the UK. Where possible, statistical information in this publication covers the whole of the United Kingdom, and is broken down to give figures for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. However, there are some topics for which data are currently only available for some parts of the UK, and these tables are labelled accordingly. The tables within each chapter (including data for charts), along with longer time series (for some topics) are available to download in spreadsheet format from the Statistics Data Downloads page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/toolsand-resources/statistics/data-downloads/. Further information on data sources and methodology are provided in the Sources chapter. Selected statistics from this publication are provided in "Forestry Facts and Figures 2020", available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/forestry-statistics/. We also publish a range of other Official Statistics, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/statistics/.
## Statistical Release Practices
We aim to release statistics as soon as they are available. All of our National Statistics and other Official Statistics publications are available on our website www.forestresearch.gov.uk/statistics/. Release dates are published on our website for the year ahead. Publications are made available at 9.30 am on the day of release.
## Statistical Revisions Policy
Revisions to statistics can occur when further data become available or errors are corrected. We will normally revise statistics when the figures next appear in any publication. However, if the revision is significant (i.e. resulting in a major change to the published figures), a note showing the revisions will be published as soon as possible on the Forest Research website and distributed to all known recipients. In addition, the web versions of any current publications affected will be revised. See our full revisions policy at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf for further information.
## Quality
Summary information on quality is available in the Sources chapter of this publication. More details are provided in quality reports for individual topics, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/aboutour-statistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
## National Statistics Status
National Statistics status means that our statistics meet the highest standards of trustworthiness, quality and public value, and it is our responsibility to maintain compliance with these standards. The continued designation of these statistics (Forestry Statistics and Forestry Facts & Figures) as National Statistics was confirmed in March 2012 following an assessment by the UK Statistics Authority (now the Office for Statistics Regulation) against the Code of Practice for Statistics. Since the latest assessment of these statistics in 2012, we have made improvements including:
-
Expansion of content to cover data on additional topics, including woodland types and habitats, felling and public opinion on tree health.
-
The addition of key findings at the start of each chapter, to provide users with a brief overview of the statistics.
-
Provision of more detailed information on the methodology used, particularly in relation to the estimation of woodland area.
## Sources
Background information on the statistics presented in this release are available in the Sources chapter. This covers the data sources and methodology used to produce the statistics, information on quality measures and on any revisions to historic data and links to further information. Further details on quality are provided in quality reports for selected topics and for individual surveys, available from our Quality web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/ As a National Statistics output, this publication concentrates on topics for which the data meet National Statistics quality standards. However some topics outside the scope of National Statistics are included, to give a more rounded picture; any such tables are footnoted as "outside the scope of National Statistics". This means that they have not been subject to National Statistics quality assurance procedures, but does not necessarily imply that they are of poorer quality. This edition of Forestry Statistics includes the following tables and charts that are outside the scope of National Statistics:

## Introduction
This chapter contains statistics on:
- UK woodland area; - certified woodland area; - areas of new planting and restocking; and - felling.
Estimates for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are included in addition to UK totals. International comparisons are provided in the International Forestry chapter. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. Figures on woodland area and certified woodland area at March 2020 and on new planting and restocking for the period 2019-20 were previously published in "Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2020 edition", released on 14 June 2020. Some figures for new planting in 2019-20 and for Statutory Plant Health Notices in Scotland have been revised from those previously published. For further details on revisions, see the Woodland Areas and Planting: Felling section of the Sources chapter. A copy of all woodland area and planting tables, along with longer time series (where available) can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at https://www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- The area of woodland in the UK at 31 March 2020 is estimated to be 3.2
million hectares. This represents 13% of the total land area in the UK, 10% in England, 15% in Wales, 19% in Scotland and 9% in Northern Ireland.
- Of the total UK woodland area, 0.86 million hectares (27%) is owned or
managed by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales or the Forest Service (in Northern Ireland).
- The total certified woodland area in the UK at 31 March 2020 is 1.39
million hectares, including all Forestry England/Forestry and Land Scotland/Natural Resources Wales/Forest Service woodland. Overall, 43% of the UK woodland area is certified.
- 13.7 thousand hectares of new woodland were created in the UK in
2019-20, with conifers accounting for 57% of this area.
## 1.1 Woodland Area
Woodland is defined in UK forestry statistics as land under stands of trees with a canopy cover of at least 20% (25% in Northern Ireland), or having the potential to achieve this. The definition relates to land use, rather than land cover, so integral open space and felled areas that are awaiting restocking are included as woodland. Further information, including how this UK definition compares with the international definition of woodland, is provided in the Sources chapter. Statistics on woodland area are used to inform government policy and resource allocation, to provide context to UK forestry and land management issues and are reported to international organisations. They are also used in the compilation of natural capital accounts. Increases in woodland area result from the creation of new woodland. This can be achieved through new planting or by natural colonisation of trees on land near existing woodland. Further information is available in the section on New Planting. Decreases in woodland area result from the conversion of woodland to other land uses. Regulatory approval is usually required before trees can be felled. Felling approval will normally require the area to be restocked, but there are some cases in which trees may be permanently removed, generally for environmental reasons. The permanent removal of trees may also be authorised under planning regulations, to enable development. Most public sector woodland is managed by Forestry England (FE), Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS), Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and the Forest Service (FS) in Northern Ireland. Other public sector woodland (e.g. owned by local authorities) is included with privately owned woodland as "private sector" in this release. The Natural Resources Wales woodland areas relate to the Welsh Government Woodland Estate. There is approximately 900 hectares of woodland on National Nature Reserves and other land managed by Natural Resources Wales that is not included in the Natural Resources Wales figures.
## 1.1.1 Area Of Woodland: 2020
The area of woodland in the UK at 31 March 2020 is estimated to be 3.2 million hectares (Table 1.1). Of this total, 1.5 million hectares (46%) is in Scotland, 1.3 million hectares (41%) is in England, 0.3 million hectares (10%) is in Wales and 0.1 million hectares (4%) is in Northern Ireland. Conifers account for around one half (51%) of the UK woodland area, although this proportion varies from around one quarter (26%) in England to around three quarters (74%) in Scotland.

## 1.2 Certified Woodland Area
Certified woodland in the UK has been independently audited against the UK Woodland Assurance Standard. Forestry certification schemes are owned by international non-governmental organisations and exist to promote good forest practice. They offer product labels to demonstrate that wood or wood products come from well-managed forests. Figures for certified woodland areas are often used as an indicator of sustainable forest management. However, it should be noted that woodland that is not certified may also be managed sustainably. Most changes to the certified woodland area figures over time are a result of new areas being certified or certificates not being renewed upon expiry. Temporary changes can also occur if there is a time lag between expiry and renewal. Statistics on certified timber are provided in Chapter 2. 1.39 million hectares of woodland in the UK were certified in March 2020 (Table 1.4). This represented 43% of the total UK woodland area, 25% in England, 47% in Wales, 59% in Scotland and 55% in Northern Ireland.

4. The estimates are based on UK data published by FSC and PEFC, supplemented by data
from individual certificates and other sources. Where possible, figures are for the woodland area certified, rather than the land area certified.
5. All Forestry England/Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales WGWE/Forest
Service woodland is certified. The Forestry England/Forestry and Land Scotland/ Welsh Government Woodland Estate /Forest Service areas are the latest areas, as shown in Table 1, rather than the areas shown on certificates.
Data: Longer time series of the above table are available from the Data Downloads webpage. Figure 1.2 presents certified woodland area by country since December 2001, with figures for earlier years revised for consistency with results from the National Forest Inventory. This shows an increase in certified woodland area of around 330 thousand hectares (31%) since December 2001, with most of this increasing occurring in the early 2000s. The 1.39 million hectares of certified woodland in the UK at March 2020 represents a 0.4% decrease on the previous year.

## 1.3 Land Use
Not all land that is owned or managed by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales and the Forest Service in Northern Ireland is woodland; other land uses include agricultural land, mountain areas and moorland. The woodland areas and land areas shown for Natural Resources Wales relate to the Welsh Government Woodland Estate. There is approximately 900 hectares of woodland on National Nature Reserves and other land managed by Natural Resources Wales that is not included in the Natural Resources Wales figures. Woodland accounted for 79% of all Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales/ Forest Service land in the UK at 31 March 2020 (Table 1.5). This proportion was highest in Wales (95%) and lowest in Scotland (74%).

## 1.4 National Forest Inventory
This section contains interim results from the National Forest Inventory (NFI). The statistics are based on field survey data combined with information from the NFI woodland map, which is a spatial representation of woodland areas in Great Britain. Figures presented in this chapter are interim estimates at 31 March 2012, published in the NFI "50-year forecast of softwood timber availability" and "50- year forecast of hardwood timber availability" reports, released in April 2014. Both reports are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/national-forest-inventory/. The figures presented in Tables 1.6 to 1.9 (and Figures 1.3, 1.4a and 1.4b) relate to stocked areas. These differ from the woodland areas presented in earlier tables, as stocked areas exclude felled areas and (for private sector land) areas of integral open space. The figures on growing stock presented in Tables 1.10 and 1.11 form the basis for the softwood and hardwood availability forecasts (see Tables 2.4a and 2.4b). Further information on the National Forest Inventory is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/national-forest-inventory/.
## 1.4.1 Woodland Area By Age: Conifers
Table 1.6 presents the area of conifers, broken down by age class, ownership and country. 61% of the coniferous woodland area in Great Britain was occupied by stands of 40 years old or younger (Table 1.6). A further 9% of stands were aged over 60 years.

## 1.4.5 Woodland Area By Species: Broadleaves
Table 1.9 presents the area of broadleaves, broken down by principal species, ownership and country. The most commonly occurring broadleaved species in Great Britain are birch (accounting for 18% of broadleaf woodland), oak (16%) and ash (12%) (Table 1.9). Birch is more dominant in Scotland, accounting for 43% of the broadleaf area there.

## 1.4.7 Growing Stock By Species: Conifers
Growing stock is the volume of timber in living trees. It is also often referred to as the standing volume. Table 1.10 presents the volume of coniferous growing stock, broken down by principal species, ownership and country. The total volume of coniferous growing stock in Great Britain in 2012 was 355
million m3 overbark standing (Table 1.10).
Sitka spruce accounted for around one half (51%) of the conifer growing stock, followed by Scots pine (15%) and larches (10%). This largely reflects the distribution of species by area (see Table 1.8).

## 1.5 Area Of Farm Woodland
Agricultural Censuses run by Defra (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) and the devolved administrations collect annual information on the land-use of farms. Table 1.12 below shows the area of woodland on farms. The area of farm woodland in the UK has increased from 0.8 million hectares in 2010 to 1.0 million hectares in 2019 (Table 1.12). Slightly over one half (51%) of all farm woodland was in Scotland in 2019, with a further 37% in England, 11% in Wales and the remaining 2% in Northern Ireland.

## 1.6 New Planting And Publicly Funded Restocking New Planting
New planting is the creation of new areas of woodland by planting trees on land that was not previously woodland. The statistics presented here also include new woodland that is created by natural colonisation of trees on land near existing woodland. Statistics on new planting are used to inform government policy and resource allocation and are used in producing annual estimates of woodland area. There are a number of factors that can affect the level of new planting in the UK. These include:
- choices by landowners reflecting their own motivation and needs; - the costs and availability of land for conversion to woodland; - the availability of grants for new planting, the level of grant payments
available and the awareness of grants among potential recipients;
- the tax benefits available from owning woodland; - expected future markets for wood products such as timber and woodfuel; - income from payments for ecosystem services, particularly carbon
storage;
- national and local initiatives, for example on biodiversity, green
infrastructure and water management.
## Restocking
Restocking is the replacement of trees on areas of woodland that have been felled; this can be done either through replanting or natural regeneration. The statistics presented here include felled areas that have been restocked by both natural regeneration and replanting. As restocking takes place on woodland that has been previously harvested and it is a condition of most felling licences that the area is restocked, restocking rates are mainly driven by harvesting levels (with a time lag, usually of around 2 years, between harvesting and restocking). Figures for timber harvesting (wood production) are available in the UK-Grown Timber chapter. Economic factors, including grant rates, may have some effect on the species choice at restocking. In addition, the precise timing of restocking may be affected by weather conditions. This release only covers publicly funded restocking, that is:
- restocking of Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural
Resources Wales/ Forest Service Woodland and
- grant aided restocking of private sector woodland.
Grant support for restocking of conifers changed with the introduction of Rural Development Contracts in Scotland in 2008 and again with the introduction of the Forestry Grant Scheme in 2015. This will have led to a reduction in the proportion of private sector restocking that is grant aided and therefore reported for Scotland. Grant support in England is now provided by the Countryside Stewardship scheme, which opened for applications in early 2016. Funding for restocking under Countryside Stewardship is only available under limited circumstances (through the tree health grant). The restoration (and restocking with native species) of PAWS (plantations on ancient woodland sites) is also supported by the HS2 Woodland Fund. No estimate has been made for restocking in England that is no longer supported by grants and therefore restocking in England in recent years is under-reported in this release and other statistics.
## 1.6.1 New Planting
13.7 thousand hectares of new woodland were created in the UK in 2019-20 (Table 1.13a). Conifers accounted for 57% of the new planting area in 2019- 20.

Figure 1.6 shows areas of new planting by country since the year ending March 1976. Trends in new planting rates have been influenced by changes to regulations and the incentives available to land owners. In recent years, areas of new planting in the UK have dropped to lows of under 6 thousand hectares in 2009-10 and in 2015-16 and have risen to highs of around 13 thousand hectares in 2011-12, 2013-14, 2018-19 and 2019-20. These fluctuations are likely to have been influenced by changes in grant schemes across the UK. At 13.7 thousand hectares in 2019-20, the current level of new planting is similar to the level reported in 2018-19. This current level does represent an increase of 0.8% from the previous year. This is the smallest increase recorded since levels rose sharply after the 2015-16 planting season. For further information, see the New Planting and Restocking section of the Sources chapter.

Figure 1.7 shows reported areas of restocking by country since the year ending March 1976. It indicates an increase in restocking rates during the period. Over the same period, there has been a general increase in UK wood production (see UK-Grown Timber chapter). The reported area of restocking fell significantly after a peak of 19 thousand hectares in 2006-07. This followed changes to grant support for restocking in Scotland, that resulted in some non-grant aided Sitka spruce restocking being excluded from the estimates. Results from the Forestry Commission's Nursery Survey (an annual survey of forest nurseries in Great Britain) indicate that, following a dip in the 2009/10 planting year, sales of Sitka spruce plants to Scotland have been relatively stable in recent years. The chart shows a dip in the area of restocking in 2015-16, following changes to grant schemes across the UK. Reported restocking has continued to fall in England, where grant aid is now only available in very limited circumstances. The reported area of publicly funded restocking in the UK in 2019-20 represents a 4% decrease from the previous year and remains below the level reported for 2016-17. For further information, see the New Planting and Restocking section of the Sources chapter.

1. Private sector figures are based on areas for which grants were paid during the year. 2. Estimates of areas planted without grant aid are also included (where possible) up to 2009-
10, but no estimates are available since then. As a result, the reported figures are likely to under-estimate the true level of planting activity.
3. The planting season lies both sides of 31 March and the weather can cause planting to be

## 1.7 Felling Felling
Approval for the felling (cutting down) of trees in the UK is granted through felling licences issued by the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Natural Resources Wales or the Forest Service in Northern Ireland. Felling licences may be conditional (where felling approval is granted subject to replanting) or unconditional (where tree felling is approved without the requirement to replant). Unconditional licences are routinely issued for silvicultural thinning operations and in these cases no woodland loss takes place. However, an unconditional felling licence without the requirement to replant may be issued if there are overriding environmental considerations, for example to enable the restoration of important habitats. The removal of trees may also be authorised under planning regulations, to enable development (including for windfarms). In this case, a felling licence is not required. The removal of trees might also be required through a Statutory Plant Health Notice (SPHN). A SPHN may require the felling and destruction of infected trees or containment of infested material on site, and is issued by the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Natural Resources Wales or the Forest Service to prevent the spread of pests and diseases. Similar actions are also required within the public woodland estate managed by these organisations. There is no legal requirement for woodland to be restocked after felling under a SPHN. Since 2010/2011, SPHNs have mainly been issued to attempt to slow down the spread of Phytophthora ramorum, first found in the UK in 2002 on viburnum, and in 2009 on Japanese larch, a significant sporulating host resulting in a dramatic upsurge in the disease. Statutory felling of infected P. ramorum infected larch does not apply within the designated P. ramorum management zone in south west Scotland where the high levels of infection and proportion of larch in the area make this unfeasible. However, felling licences are still required, and movement licences are required to stop spread out of this area. In Wales' P. ramorum Core Disease Zone SPHNs are still served to contain material on site, but felling still requires a felling licence. Further information on felling and Statutory Plant Health Notices is provided in the Sources chapter.
## Woodland Loss
Information on unconditional felling licences that do not relate to thinning may be seen as an indication of the level of woodland loss on land that is not owned or managed by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales or the Forest Service. However, the data relates only to felling licences issued, so does not provide information on whether the felling actually took place (or the timing of the felling). In addition, felling licences do not cover woodland loss that is authorised under planning regulations. The National Forest Inventory report "Preliminary estimates of the changes in canopy cover in British woodlands between 2006 and 2015" (August 2016) has reported:
- 3.3 thousand hectares of observed permanent woodland loss between
2006 and 2015;
- a further 0.7 thousand hectares of ground under development and 0.2
thousand hectares of newly established habitats;
- 69% of the clearfelled area observed in 2006 had been restocked by
2012, leaving around 33.9 thousand hectares of woodlands in transition and open areas;
- 63% of the area observed as clearfelled between 2006 and 2009 had
been restocked by 2012, leaving around 28.6 thousand hectares of woodlands in transition and open areas.
These are interim estimates that are likely to underestimate the final position; updated estimates will be available when results from the NFI second cycle field survey are released. Further information is available in the report at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/national-forest-inventory/.
## 1.7.1 Felling Licences
Table 1.15 shows the area covered by unconditional felling licences issued by the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry and Natural Resources Wales in the last 10 years. The figures do not include unconditional felling licences issued to permit thinning of woodlands. The table covers woodland in England, Scotland and Wales that is not owned or managed by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland or Natural Resources Wales only; it does not cover felling that is exempt from felling licence approval (such as authorisations for felling under planning regulations, felling required under a Statutory Plant Health Notice or felling that is approved on condition that the area is restocked). A total of 0.3 thousand hectares of woodland in England, 0.3 thousand hectares of woodland in Scotland and 0.1 thousand hectares in Wales was covered by unconditional felling licences (with no requirement to restock) in the year to March 2020.

## 1.7.2 Statutory Plant Health Notices
Table 1.16a shows the number of sites where a Statutory Plant Health Notice has been served in the UK between 2010-11 and 2018-19. For Scotland, the figures now show the number of Statutory Plant Health Notices issued, rather than number of sites. All woodland, including sites owned or managed by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales or the Forest Service in Northern Ireland are covered. As Statutory Plant Health Notices are not issued in the Phytophthora ramorum management zone in south west Scotland, the figures presented here do not cover all felling of infected larch. A total of 635 sites were served with Statutory Plant Health Notices between April 2018 and March 2019.

United Kingdom Geographical breakdown:
Country
## Introduction
This chapter covers the production of timber from woodland and the primary processing of harvested wood to give basic wood products. Estimates for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are included, in addition to UK totals, where possible. International comparisons of timber production are available in the International Forestry chapter. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. Timber originating from conifers is known as softwood and that from broadleaves is known as hardwood. Please refer to the Glossary for a definition of other terms used in this chapter. Figures for 2019 were previously published in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 Provisional Figures", released on 14 May 2020. Some figures have been revised from those previously published. For further details on revisions, see the Timber section of the Sources chapter. A copy of all UK-grown timber tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings for 2019 are (with percentage changes from 2018):
## Removals1 (Harvesting) Of Uk Roundwood:
- 9.8 million green tonnes of softwood (-14%); - 0.9 million green tonnes of hardwood (+4%).
## Deliveries1 Of Uk Roundwood To Wood Processors And Others:
- Total: 11.1 million green tonnes of roundwood (softwood and hardwood)
(-3%), of which:
- Sawmills: 6.0 million green tonnes (-7%); - Wood-based panels: 1.3 million green tonnes (+9%); - Integrated pulp and paper mills: 0.5 million green tonnes (-5%); - Woodfuel: 2.6 million green tonnes (unchanged); - Other uses, including round fencing, shavings and exports of roundwood:
0.7 million green tonnes (-3%).
## Production Of Wood Products In The Uk Included:
- 3.5 million cubic metres of sawnwood (-6%); - 3.2 million cubic metres of wood-based panels (+5%); - 3.9 million tonnes of paper and paperboard (-1%).
## 2.1 Wood Production
Wood production (also referred to as removals) refers to the harvesting of roundwood (trunk and branch wood) from coniferous (softwood) and nonconiferous (hardwood) trees. Figures are generally expressed here in green tonnes (weight when freshly felled). Removals should not be confused with deliveries, which are the quantities of UK-grown roundwood that is delivered to processors (mills) or for other uses (such as woodfuel and exports). Deliveries statistics are presented in Tables 2.5 and 2.6. A comparison of removals and deliveries of UK softwood roundwood is provided in the Sources chapter. The figures on removals of UK roundwood are used to monitor trends in the UK forest sector. The data is also used alongside figures for standing volume (the volume of standing trees) and increment (the growth rate of standing trees) to compile natural capital accounts for inclusion in the UK Environmental Accounts released by the Office for National Statistics. The data are derived from a number of sources:
- FE/FLS/NRW/FS figures are obtained from Forestry England, Forestry
and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales and Forest Service administrative systems;
- Private sector softwood figures are obtained from the Private Sector
Softwood Removals Survey;
- Total hardwood figures are estimated from hardwood deliveries figures,
which are compiled from surveys of the UK-grown timber industry, trade associations and expert estimates.
## 2.1.1 Summary: Wood Production
It is estimated that a total of 10.7 million green tonnes of roundwood was removed from UK woodlands in 2019. Softwood accounted for most (92%) removals from UK woodland and totalled 9.8 million green tonnes in 2019 (Table 2.1a). This represented a 14% decrease on the previous year's figure. Hardwood removals totalled 0.9 million green tonnes in 2019 (Table 2.1b). Private sector woodlands accounted for 60% of softwood production and 92% of hardwood production in 2019.

2. Private sector: removals from all other woodland (including some publicly owned

3. Most hardwood production in the UK comes from private sector woodland; the figures are
estimates based on reported deliveries to wood processing industries and others.
4. The increase in hardwood removals between 2016 and 2017 is largely attributed to a
revised estimate for deliveries of UK grown hardwood used for woodfuel (see Table 2.6). This new estimate should not be interpreted as an increase in a single year.

## 2.1.2 Origin Of Private Sector Softwood Removals
It is estimated that 70% of all softwood removals from private sector woodlands were harvested in Scotland, 21% in England, 8% in Wales and the remainder in Northern Ireland in 2019 (Table 2.2). Despite a 14% decrease in private sector softwood removals in the UK in the latest year, the total for 2019 remains higher than the level at the beginning of the decade.

## 2.1.3 Origin Of Fe/Fls/Nrw/Fs Removals
Information on removals from Forestry England (FE), Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS), Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and Forest Service (FS) woodlands is obtained from administrative systems. A total of 3.9 million green tonnes of softwood was removed from FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands in 2019, a 13% decrease from the 2018 figure (Table 2.3). This represents the lowest level in the last decade. Over one half (54%) of FE/FLS/NRW/FS softwood removals in 2019 occurred in Scotland, 23% in England, 13% in Wales and 9% in Northern Ireland.

## 2.1.4 Softwood Availability Forecast
The National Forest Inventory "50-year forecast of softwood availability" and "50-year forecast of hardwood availability" were published in April 2014. They are forecasts of potential availability rather than production, as they do not take account of management objectives, financial factors or the state of markets, all of which will affect the level of and timing of harvesting. More information on the forecasts and detailed breakdowns are available on the National Forest Inventory web pages at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/toolsand-resources/national-forest-inventory/. The forecasts are outside the scope of National Statistics, but are provided here to give more context to the data on wood production. As these forecasts were produced in 2014, they do not take into account any of the findings from the 'preliminary estimates of the changes in canopy cover in British woodlands between 2006 and 2015', released in August 2016. The key assumptions underpinning the headline softwood forecast scenario include:
- Private woodland is managed in a way that maximises total production. - The estate of Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland and Natural
Resources Wales is managed according to current management plans; note that Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, and Natural Resources Wales intend to cap production below the level set out in Table 2.4a.
Under the above scenario, softwood availability for Great Britain averages 15.2 million cubic metres a year over the 50-year period 2013 to 2061 (Table 2.4a). The majority (66%) of this softwood is projected to come from private sector woodland.

## 2.1.5 Hardwood Availability Forecast
The key assumptions underpinning the headline hardwood forecast scenario include:
- In private woodland, harvesting is limited to areas with evidence of
recent thinning activity.
- The estate of Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland and Natural
Resources Wales is managed according to current management plans.
Under the above scenario, hardwood availability for Great Britain averages 1.6 million m3 a year over the 50-year period (Table 2.4b). The majority (89%) of this hardwood is projected to come from private sector woodland. If these woodlands were managed to maximise total production, the forecast would be much higher, as illustrated in the full National Forest Inventory report available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/national-forest-inventory/.

## 2.2 Deliveries Of Uk-Grown Roundwood
Figures for deliveries relate to the quantity of UK-grown roundwood that is delivered to processors (mills) or for other uses (such as woodfuel and exports). They are expressed in green tonnes (weight when freshly felled). Statistics on roundwood deliveries are used to monitor trends in the supply of, and demand for, UK-grown wood. Deliveries should not be confused with removals, which are the quantities of roundwood that is harvested from UK woodland. Removals statistics are presented in Tables 2.1 to 2.3. A comparison of removals and deliveries of UK softwood roundwood is provided in the Sources chapter. The data are derived from a number of sources, including surveys of the UK- grown timber industry, trade associations and expert estimates.
## 2.2.1 Softwood Deliveries
In 2019, deliveries of UK roundwood (softwood and hardwood) totalled 11.1 million green tonnes, a 3% decrease from the previous year (Tables 2.5 and 2.6). Most UK roundwood deliveries (92%) were softwood and totalled 10.2 million green tonnes in 2019 (Table 2.5). 5.9 million green tonnes (58% of UK softwood deliveries) were used by sawmills, a 7% decrease from the previous year. A further 1.9 million green tonnes were used for wood fuel (unchanged from 2018), 1.3 million green tonnes were used to produce wood-based panels (a 13% increase), 0.5 million green tonnes by integrated pulp and paper mills (a 5% decrease), and 0.6 million green tonnes for other uses, including round fencing, shavings and exports of roundwood (a 7% decrease). The increase in softwood deliveries for woodfuel in recent years reflects an increase in wood use for heating and energy production in the UK (see the Sources chapter for further information).

## 2.3 Sawmills - All Mills
Data are collected by Forest Research in an annual Sawmill Survey. The following section includes summary results, covering number of mills, consumption and production are available for all mills. In addition, there are also more detailed figures for larger mills only. The threshold defining larger mills was changed for the collection of 2016 data, from annual sawnwood production of 10 thousand m3 to annual sawnwood production of 25 thousand m3. Further information on this change is provided in the section on Larger Mills within this chapter and in the Sawmill Survey section of the Sources chapter. Consumption units are given in green tonnes. For production, the units used are m3 sawnwood. For conversion factors between different units, see the Timber section of the Sources chapter.
## 2.3.1 Summary: Consumption & Production
In 2019, sawmills in the UK consumed a total of 6.2 million green tonnes of softwood, a 6% decrease from 2018 (Table 2.7a). A further 0.1 million green tonnes of hardwood were consumed by UK sawmills in 2019. Most of the logs, 5.9 million green tonnes softwood and 0.1 million green tonnes hardwood, were grown in the UK. Despite a drop in the levels of softwood consumption in the UK in the last 2 years, the 2019 figure remains above the level earlier in the decade.

## 2.3.2 Number Of Sawmills By Size
A total of 150 sawmills processed UK roundwood in 2019 (Table 2.8). Most mills (83%) produced less than 25 thousand m3 sawnwood (softwood and hardwood) during the year. Over the past ten years, the number of active sawmills has reduced by 20%. Most of this decrease has occurred in the smallest size categories.

## 2.4 Sawmills - Larger Mills
The following, more detailed, tables are available for larger mills (those producing at least 25 thousand m3 sawnwood annually) only. These larger mills are estimated to account for 85% of all sawn softwood produced in 2019 (see Table 2.13). The threshold for inclusion in the more detailed survey of larger sawmills was raised from 10 thousand m3 sawnwood production to 25 thousand m3
sawnwood production in 2016. In order to provide consistent time series, data presented in this section for 2015 is also restricted to sawmills that produced at least 25 thousand m3 sawnwood. The tables cover the following topics:
- Source of softwood logs; - Sawn softwood product markets; - Other softwood products; and - Sawmill employment.
## 2.4.1 Softwood Consumption And Production
Total softwood consumption by the 26 sawmills covered by the detailed sawmill survey in 2019 was 5.3 million green tonnes (Table 2.15). Sawn softwood production by these mills was 2.9 million m3 and other softwood products (chips, bark, sawdust, etc) amounted to 2.5 million tonnes. Sawmills in Scotland accounted for around one half (48%) of all softwood consumption by larger mills. A further 31% was consumed by mills in England, 12% in Northern Ireland and the remaining 8% in Wales.

## 2.4.2 Source Of Softwood Logs
Of all softwood sawlogs consumed by larger sawmills in 2019, 54% came from Scotland, 21% from England, 13% from Wales and 6% from Northern Ireland (Tables 2.16 and 2.16a). The remaining 7% were imported from other countries. The proportion of softwood sawlogs from Scotland has declined over the last 5 years, whilst the proportion of imported logs has increased. 96% of softwood sawlogs used by Scottish mills in 2019 came from Scotland. The corresponding proportions of mills' log use coming from within the same country were 60% for England, 72% for Wales and 46% for Northern Ireland.

## 2.4.4 Other Softwood Products
Sawmills were asked to estimate the quantity of other products (excluding sawnwood) that they generated from softwood and sold to different industries. The figures presented below are based on these estimates. Other softwood products amounted to 2.5 million tonnes in 2019 (Table 2.15). Around one third (36%) of other softwood products were sold to wood processing industries in the form of chips and 17% were sold to these industries in sawdust and other formats (Table 2.18). A further 20% of other products were sold to bio-energy (including pellet manufacturers), 19% were sold to others and 8% were used internally for heat or energy.

## 2.5 Pulp & Paper
Statistics on inputs to the pulp & paper industry only cover the integrated pulp & paper mills in the UK that use UK roundwood. There were four such mills until 2003, three from 2004 and two from spring 2006. Figures on inputs are provided by the Confederation of Forest Industries (Confor). Figures on production of pulp and paper are provided by the Confederation of Paper Industries, and cover all paper production in the UK, not just from mills using UK roundwood.
## 2.5.1 Inputs For The Integrated Pulp & Paper Mills
The integrated pulp & paper mills in the UK consumed a total of 0.5 million tonnes of material (all softwood) in 2019, a 3% decrease from the 2018 total (Table 2.20). UK roundwood represented 88% of the inputs for the integrated pulp & paper mills in 2019, with the remaining 12% coming from sawmill products.

## 2.6.2 Production Of Wood-Based Panel Products
Total production of wood-based panels in 2019 was 3.2 million m3, a 5% increase from 2018 (Table 2.23). Over three quarters (77%) of wood-based panel products produced in the UK in 2019 were particleboard (including oriented strand board (OSB)). The marked decrease between 2011 and 2012 largely results from the closure of a panel mill in 2012.

## 2.7 Miscellaneous Products Softwood
Data for softwood fencing are obtained from the Survey of Round Fencing Manufacturers. Figures for other uses are reported by manufacturers or are estimated by representatives of the wood processing industries. 1.9 million green tonnes of UK softwood were estimated to have been used directly for woodfuel (including biomass energy) in 2019, unchanged from the level in the previous year (Table 2.24). A further 262 thousand green tonnes of UK softwood were consumed by round fencing manufacturers and 183 thousand green tonnes for other uses in 2019.

## 2.8 Exports
UK softwood exports in 2019 consisted of 154 thousand green tonnes of sawlogs and 46 thousand green tonnes of industrial roundwood (excluding sawlogs), giving a total of 201 thousand green tonnes of roundwood (Table 2.27). The quantity of softwood roundwood exports decreased by 24% between 2018 and 2019. The UK also exported 109 thousand tonnes of softwood chips in 2019, a 3% decrease from the previous year.

## 2.9 Certification
Forest certification assesses forest management practices against an agreed standard and awards a label to those forest products that meet the standard. In order for products to achieve certification, both forest management practices and the Chain of Custody, which tracks timber from forest to retail outlet, must be assessed. The following tables provide information on the level of certified wood produced in the UK (Table 2.28) and the number of sawmills and round fencing manufacturers holding Chain of Custody certificates (Table 2.29). Estimates of the certified softwood removals in the UK by country, are also provided (Table 2.28a). As these figures are relatively new and the quality of data at this level is still improving, these estimates are currently labelled as experimental statistics. Information on areas of certified woodland is provided in Chapter 1.
## 2.9.1 Volume Certified
70% of private sector softwood removals in 2019 were from certified woodlands (Table 2.28). The percentage of private sector softwood removals that are certified has fluctuated over recent years; industry experts have indicated a general reduction in the level of certification amongst smaller estates and an increase in production from larger estates. As nearly all removals from Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales and Forest Service woodland are certified, this equates to around 82% of all softwood removals in 2019 from certified sources. 77% of sawmills' roundwood consumption in 2019 was certified. For round fencing manufacturers, 69% of total softwood consumption was certified.

## 2.9.2 Chain Of Custody Certificates
Sawmills and round fencing manufacturers were also asked whether they held a Chain of Custody certificate. 71% of sawmills for which the certification status was known held a Chain of Custody certificate in 2019 (Table 2.29). This proportion varied with size of mill, from 20% for mills producing less than 5 thousand m3 sawnwood to 100% for those producing 25 thousand m3 sawnwood or more. Around two thirds (69%) of round fencing manufacturers for which the certification status was known held a Chain of Custody certificate.

## 2.10 Woodfuel And Pellets
Wood from various sources can be used for fuel, including roundwood, chips and sawdust from wood processing, specific products such as pellets and briquettes, and recycled wood. The following pages provide data on:
- recycled wood used for woodfuel (Table 2.30 below); - woodfuel supply by sawmills and round fencing manufacturers (Table
2.31); and
- wood pellet production (Table 2.32) and feedstock (Table 2.33).
In addition, estimates of roundwood used directly for woodfuel are provided in tables 2.5 and 2.6.
## 2.10.1 Recycled Wood Used For Woodfuel
Estimates of recycled wood used for woodfuel have been obtained from the Wood Recyclers' Association. In 2019, it is estimated that around 2.4 million tonnes of recycled wood were used for woodfuel, an increase of 14% from the 2018 estimate of around 2.1 million tonnes.

## 2.10.3 Wood Pellets
Wood pellets and briquettes are processed wood products that can be made from roundwood, sawmill products and/or recycled wood. Some of the wood used to make wood pellets and briquettes will be accounted for elsewhere in this release (e.g. in Tables 2.30 and 2.31). Wood pellets and briquettes are often used for woodfuel, but pellets may also be used for other purposes (such as horse bedding or cat litter). A total of 298 thousand tonnes of wood pellets and briquettes are estimated to have been produced in the UK in 2019. This represents a 7% increase from the 2018 estimate of 279 thousand tonnes.

Roundwood fell by 32% in the latest year and accounted for over one half (54%) of the feedstock in 2019 (down from 67% in 2018). Correspondingly, there was a 16% increase in sawmill products and other feedstock.

## Introduction
This chapter contains information about UK imports and exports of wood products, and about the level of apparent consumption estimated from data for UK production, imports and exports. Information on imports and exports mainly comes from the Overseas Trade Statistics compiled by HM Revenue & Customs. Estimates are provided at a UK level only. International comparisons of apparent consumption are provided in the International Forestry chapter. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. Figures for 2019 were previously published in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 Provisional Figures", released on 14 May 2020. Some figures for 2019 and earlier years have been revised from those previously published. For further details on revisions, see the Trade section of the Sources chapter. A copy of all trade tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings are: UK imports:
- 7.0 million cubic metres of sawnwood in 2019, a 2% decrease from the
2018 figure;
- 3.7 million cubic metres of wood-based panels in 2019, a 6% decrease
from 2018;
- 8.9 million tonnes of wood pellets in 2019, an increase of 11% from
2018;
- 5.2 million tonnes of paper in 2019, a 5% decrease from 2018. - The total value of wood product imports in 2019 was £8.3 billion,
representing a 1% increase from 2018; of which £4.1 billion was pulp and paper.
- Sawn softwood, particleboard, fibreboard, and paper and paperboard
were overwhelmingly imported from EU countries in 2019.
- Sawn hardwood and wood pulp imports originated from a range of both
EU and non-EU countries in 2019.
- The vast majority of UK imports of plywood and wood pellets in 2019
came from countries outside the EU.
- Apparent consumption of wood in the UK was 56.7 million m3 WRME
underbark in 2019, representing a 1% increase from the previous year.
UK exports:
- The total value of wood product exports in 2019 was £1.7 billion, a 5%
decrease from 2018; of which £1.5 billion was pulp and paper.
## 3.1 Apparent Consumption Of Wood In The Uk
Apparent consumption is the amount of timber used as wood and wood products by people and industries in the United Kingdom. It is calculated as total United Kingdom production plus imports, minus exports. Apparent consumption differs from actual consumption by the extent of changes in the level of stocks. It is not practical to collect information on actual consumption. As table 3.1 covers a broad range of products (including secondary processed wood products), volumes are expressed in wood raw material equivalent (WRME) underbark. WRME volumes represent the amount of wood that would have been required to make the product. UK production of roundwood totalled 10.8 million m3 WRME underbark in 2019 (Table 3.1). A further 49.9 million m3 WRME underbark of wood and wood products were imported to the UK and 3.9 million m3 WRME underbark were exported, giving apparent consumption of 56.7 million m3 WRME underbark. This represented a 1% increase in apparent consumption from the previous year. These figures exclude recycled wood and recovered paper (see Table 3.3 for statistics on recovered paper). Imports accounted for 81% of all wood (production + imports) in the UK in 2019.

## 3.2 Apparent Consumption Of Wood Products In The Uk
Table 3.2 provides volumes of UK production, trade and apparent consumption in selected wood products. It differs from table 3.1 in terms of both coverage (table 3.1 covers a wider range of wood and wood products, including secondary processed products) and in terms of units (wood raw material equivalents in table 3.1, volumes of product in table 3.2). UK production accounted for 34% of the UK sawnwood market, 50% of the UK wood-based panel market and 47% of the UK paper market in 2019 (Table 3.2).

## 3.8 Origin Of Wood Imports
Table 3.8 presents data on the source of selected wood products that have been imported into the UK in 2019. Sawn softwood, particleboard, fibreboard, and paper and paperboard were overwhelmingly imported from EU countries in 2019 (Table 3.8):
- Sweden (42%), Latvia (18%) and Finland (14%) provided the majority
of imports of sawn softwood to the UK.
- Most particleboard imports to the UK came from Germany (26%), France
(19%) and Ireland (14%).
- Ireland (31%), Germany (20%), Belgium and Spain (both 10%) were
the principal sources of fibreboard imports.
- Most paper and paperboard imports came from Sweden (18%), Germany
(16%) and Finland (15%).
Sawn hardwood and wood pulp imports originated from a range of both EU and non-EU countries in 2019:
- Estonia (14%), the USA (13%), Latvia (11%) and France (10%)
provided almost one half of sawn hardwood imports to the UK.
- Sweden (30%) and Brazil (29%) provided over one half of wood pulp
imports to the UK.
The vast majority of UK imports of plywood and wood pellets came from countries outside the EU in 2018:
- China (37%) and Brazil (20%) were the principal sources of plywood
imports to the UK.
- The USA (62%) and Canada (18%) provided the majority of wood pellet
imports to the UK.

1. Sawnwood imports in this table exclude sleepers.
Figure 3.2 shows the main sources of imports of sawn softwood to the UK since 1962. The total level of sawn softwood imports has fluctuated between around 5 million m3 and 10 million m3 from 1962 to present. Imports to the UK from Canada have reduced substantially since the early 1990s. In contrast imports from the Baltic States increased between 1992 and 2003 and, although there was some decline between 2003 to 2012, imports from the Baltic States to the UK have started to increase again in recent years. Since 1993 Sweden has consistently been the principal country of origin for UK sawn softwood imports.

## Forestry Statistics 2020 Chapter 4: Carbon
Release date:
24 September 2020
Coverage:
United Kingdom Geographical breakdown:
Country
## Introduction
This chapter contains information on:
- carbon in forests; - the Woodland Carbon Code; and - public attitudes to forestry and climate change.
Estimates for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are included, where possible, in addition to UK totals. International comparisons of carbon stocks are provided in the International Forestry chapter. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. All of the statistics presented in this chapter have been previously released. A copy of all carbon tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/. In addition to the statistics presented here, information on UK forests and climate change is available from "Combating Climate Change - a role for UK forests" (The Read Report), an independent assessment of the science published in November 2009 and available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/2062/SynthesisUKAssessmentfinal.pdf. This chapter had previously included statistics on net annual changes in carbon in UK woodlands. No update is currently available. Historical data have been released by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy at https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/uk-greenhouse-gas-emissionsstatistics.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- The total carbon stock in UK forests is estimated to have increased, from
around 3.2 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 1990 to 4.0 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2020.
- Around one half (51%) of the total UK forest carbon stock in 2020 is in
Scotland (2.0 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent), 36% in England (1.5 billion tonnes), 8% in Wales (0.3 billion tonnes) and 4% in Northern Ireland (0.2 billion tonnes).
- A total of 239 projects had been validated to the Woodland Carbon Code
at 31 March 2020, covering over 12,000 hectares and projected to sequester 4.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide over their lifetime.
## 4.1 Forest Carbon Stock
Forest carbon stock is the amount of carbon that has been sequestered from the atmosphere and is now stored within the forest ecosystem, mainly within living biomass and soil, and to a lesser extent also in dead wood and litter. Table 4.1a presents estimates of UK forest carbon stock that were compiled in 2018 for submission to international organisations. The total carbon stock stored within UK forests is estimated to have increased, around 3.2 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 1990 to 4.0 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2020 (Table 4.1a). The carbon stored in forest soils accounts for around 70% of total forest carbon stock.

1. Carbon in soil depth 0 to 100 cm. 2. To convert tonnes carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) to tonnes carbon (C), multiply by
12/44.
3. Changes in soil carbon stocks over the period can be attributed to changes in UK forest
area.
These figures are outside the scope of National Statistics. For further information see the Sources chapter. Around one half (51%) of the estimated total UK forest carbon stock in 2020 is in Scotland (2.0 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent), 36% in England (1.5 billion tonnes), 8% in Wales (0.3 billion tonnes) and 4% in Northern Ireland (0.2 billion tonnes).

## 4.2 Woodland Carbon Code
The Woodland Carbon Code is a voluntary standard, initiated in July 2011, for woodland creation projects that make claims about the carbon they sequester (take out of the atmosphere). All projects must be placed on the UK Woodland Carbon Registry. Their claims about potential carbon sequestration are validated by an independent certification body. Validated projects are then verified on a regular basis to confirm the progress of carbon sequestration. Further information on Woodland Carbon Code projects is provided in the Sources chapter and at www.woodlandcarboncode.org.uk/. Table 4.2a provides annual data on projects registered under the Woodland Carbon Code. The table provides information on the number of projects, area of woodland covered by the projects and the total projected carbon sequestration over the lifetime (up to 100 years) of the projects. A total of 239 projects had been validated (including those that had also been verified) to the Woodland Carbon Code at 31 March 2020, covering around 12 thousand hectares and projected to sequester 4.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide over their lifetime. Of the validated projects, 88 were also verified by the end of March 2020. These projects cover around 2.6 thousand hectares and are projected to sequester 1.2 million tonnes of carbon dioxide over their lifetime. A total of 363 projects were registered under the Woodland Carbon Code at 31 March 2020, covering around 15 thousand hectares of woodland and projected to sequester 5.8 million tonnes of carbon dioxide.

## 4.3 Public Opinion Of Forestry - Climate Change
Forest Research has conducted similar surveys of public attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues every two years since 1995. The most recent set of separate surveys was conducted in 2019 (in Northern Ireland, Wales, and across the UK as a whole) and 2017 (in Scotland). The full results are available on our website at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/statistics-by-topic/public-opinion-of-forestry/. In the UK survey in 2019, questions were asked to gauge the public's agreement on climate change issues, including on the management of UK forests in response to the threat of climate change (Table 4.3). Some of the public views presented below do not reflect expert opinion. There were high levels of agreement (respondents stating that they agreed or strongly agreed) with the statements:
- "A lot more trees should be planted", supported by 88% of the UK public
in 2019; and
- "Different types of trees should be planted that will be more suited to
future climates", supported by 78% in 2019.
- Conversely, there were much lower levels of agreement with the
statements:
- "No action is needed, let nature take its course", supported by 26% in
2019; and
- "Trees should not be felled under any circumstances, even if they are
replaced", supported by 29%.

## Introduction
This chapter presents a range of information about the woodland environment, mostly using sources that are outside the scope of National Statistics. They are included to provide additional context to the topic. Estimates for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are included, where possible, in addition to UK or GB totals. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. All of the statistics presented in this chapter have been previously released. The statistics on the populations of wild birds (Table 5.1 and Figure 5.1) have been revised since "Forestry Statistics 2019". For further details on revisions, see the Environment section of the Sources chapter. A copy of all environment tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- The UK woodland bird index has remained relatively stable since the
early 1990s, following a period of long-term decline. In recent years the index has decreased, most of this decline has occurred in woodland specialist species.
- The total area of native woodland in Great Britain is estimated to be
around 1.51 million hectares.
- Non-native coniferous woodland is the single largest habitat type in
Great Britain, accounting for 1.29 million hectares (42%).
## 5.1 Populations Of Wild Birds
Bird populations provide a good indication of the broad state of wildlife in the UK. This is because they are a well-studied taxonomic group, enabling a more informed interpretation of observed changes, who occupy a range of habitats while still responding to the same environmental pressures that also operate on other groups of wildlife. Indices of wild bird populations in the UK are produced annually by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) in conjunction with the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB), the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO) and the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC), and cover a range of species that are native to the UK. This data has been produced since the early 1970s for the majority of habitat groups, meaning there is considerable long-term data available on the changes in bird populations, which aids in the interpretation of more short-term variation. The latest statistical release on Wild Bird Populations was published in November 2019 and includes data to 2018. The index for woodland birds was expanded in 2007 to cover 38 species. A further change in 2015 resulted in a reduction to 37 species, of which 12 are generalists and 25 are woodland specialists (those that breed or feed mainly or solely in woodland). Since the early 1990s, when the majority of species group indices stabilised, the UK woodland bird index has generally been about 20 per cent below the level of the early 1970s, with the decline predominantly in woodland specialist species (Figure 5.1). Causes for the long-term decline in the woodland bird index may include a lack of diversity in habitats and food sources, loss of habitats and food sources through damage caused by increasing deer populations, and a reduction in some migratory species following pressures in other parts of the world. In recent years, woodland bird indices have largely decreased. Since 2015 woodland specialist species have fallen by 14% and woodland generalist species have fallen by 10%.

## 5.2 Public Opinion Of Forestry - Tree Health
Forest Research has conducted similar surveys of public attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues every two years since 1995. The most recent surveys were conducted in 2019 (with separate surveys in Wales, Northern Ireland and across the UK as a whole) and in 2017 (in Scotland). Full results are available within the Public Opinion of Forestry reports available on our website at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statisticsby-topic/public-opinion-of-forestry/. Respondents to the UK survey in 2019 were asked their views on a range of statements relating to tree health. The highest level of agreement was seen with the statement "action should be taken by authorities and woodland managers to protect trees from damaging pests and disease", with 85% of UK respondents agreeing (agree or strongly agree) (Figure 5.2 and Table 5.2). This compares with only 23% agreeing with the statements "there is very little that anyone can do to prevent the spread of damaging tree pests and diseases".
Source: UK Public Opinion of Forestry Survey 2019. Base: 2,000 UK respondents. Notes:

## 5.3 Woodland Types And Habitats
National Forest Inventory (NFI) reports on woodland ecological condition, released in February 2020, provide estimates of the areas of woodland types and of woodland habitats in Great Britain. Table 5.3a presents estimates of the extent of each type of woodland. The total area of native woodland in Great Britain is estimated to be around 1.51 million hectares. This equates to around one half (49%) of the woodland area in Great Britain. The proportion of native woodland is highest in England (62%), followed by Wales (48%) and Scotland (32%).

1. The report "NFI Woodland Ecological Condition Scoring Methodology" provides further
details on woodland types.
2. Comparisons with woodland area should not be made as woodland area is defined
differently to woodland habitat (with woodland area being greater than habitat area due to the treatment of land uses like open space and clear-fell).
3. Clear-fell and transition land are included in the estimates. Woodland type for some clearfell and transition land cannot be determined and are assigned as not determinable.
These figures are outside the scope of National Statistics. For further information see the Sources chapter. Non-native coniferous woodland is the single largest habitat type in Great Britain, accounting for 1.29 million hectares (42%). This is the most common habitat type for Scotland (59%) and Wales (46%). For England, lowland mixed deciduous woodland accounts for over one half (56%) of woodlands.

## Forestry Statistics 2020 Chapter 6: Social
Release date:
24 September 2020
Coverage:
United Kingdom Geographical breakdown:
Country
## Introduction
This chapter contains statistics on:
- the number and profile of visits to all woodlands from household
surveys; and
- the number and profile of visits to Forestry England/ Forestry and Land
Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales/ Forest Service woodlands from onsite surveys and administrative sources.
The statistics in this chapter need to be viewed in the context of broader changes in the UK population, with an increasing and ageing population. More recently, the Covid-19 pandemic has led to an increase in visits to the outdoors. Initial studies are providing some information on these changes, but these have not been incorporated into this release yet. For further information, see:
- https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/people-and-nature-surveyfor-england (see monthly interim indicators);
- https://gov.wales/national-survey-wales-monthly-survey-july-2020 - https://www.nature.scot/outdoor-visits-and-engagement-nature-duringcoronavirus-lockdown and
- http://www.outdoorrecreationni.com/news/new-survey-highlightsimportance-of-accessing-outdoors-safely-during-covid-19/.
Geographical coverage for social statistics varies. Estimates are presented at country level and, where possible, UK or GB totals are included. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. Most of the statistics presented in this chapter have been previously released by other organisations. The latest year figures for day visitors to Forest Service sites in Northern Ireland are published for the first time in this release. Figures for earlier years have not been revised from those previously published. For further details on revisions, see the Social section of the Sources chapter. The frequency with which the estimates in this chapter are updated varies depending on the data sources used. Whilst some of the information presented is now several years old, it represents the latest available data and has been included to provide a more rounded picture of the social use of forests in the UK.
Further information on the advantages and disadvantages of household surveys and of on-site surveys is provided in the Social section of the Sources chapter. A copy of all social tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- There were an estimated 368 million visits to woodlands in England in
2018-19.
- Around one half (49%) of visits to woodlands in England in 2018-19 were
within 2 miles.
- "Health and exercise" and "fresh air or to enjoy pleasant weather" were
important reasons for visits to woodlands in England and Wales.
- Walking was the most common activity on visits to woodland in England. - Around 465 thousand people visited Forest Service sites where a charge
is made in Northern Ireland in 2019-20.
## 6.1 Visits To Woodland - Household Surveys
The information shown below in Table 6.1 has been obtained from the following general population household surveys.
- Scottish Recreation Survey (2009 to 2012) - Welsh Outdoor Recreation Survey (2011, 2014) - Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment (England, 2009-10
onwards)
- Scotland's People and Nature Survey (2013, 2017/18)
It is likely that differences in survey design and methodology have contributed to a considerable proportion of the differences in results between these surveys. The figures in Table 6.1 should not be interpreted as time trends but instead as separate results from each survey. Further information on the differences between surveys is provided in the Recreation section of the Sources chapter. In common with all sample based surveys, the results from each survey are subject to the effects of chance, depending on the particular survey method used and the sample achieved, thus confidence limits apply to all results from these surveys. Results from the Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment 2018- 19 estimate a total of 368 million visits to woodlands in England (Table 6.1). This is a statistically significant decrease from the 2017-18 figure of 437 million visits. The Welsh Outdoor Recreation Survey 2014 estimated a total of 68 million visits to woodlands by Welsh residents. This is a statistically significant decrease from the estimated total of 86 million in 2011, but similar to the 2008 estimate (64 million). Scotland's People and Nature Survey 2017/18 reports an estimated total of 117 million visits to woodlands in Scotland. This is a statistically significant increase from the 2013 estimate of 90 million visits.

## 6.1.1 England
Household surveys in England In March 2009 fieldwork commenced on the Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment (MENE) survey, which includes collecting information on visits to the outdoors in England. Further information on the survey, including copies of annual reports and online data viewers to access more detailed results, is available at www.gov.uk/government/collections/monitor-ofengagement-with-the-natural-environment-survey-purpose-and-results. In 2018-19, walking was the main mode of transport for almost one half (47%) of visits to woodland.

## 6.1.2 Wales
Household surveys in Wales The National Survey for Wales began in March 2016 and replaced a number of separate surveys of households in Wales, including the Welsh Outdoor Recreation Survey (WORS). The survey is completed by around 12,000 people each year and covers a wide range of topics. Further information on the survey, including copies of reports and data, is available at https://gov.wales/national-survey-wales. Table 6.3 shows the reasons provided for their visit to the outdoors by respondents who stated that the main destination of the visit was woodland. "Health and exercise" and "fresh air or to enjoy pleasant weather" were the most important reasons reported for visits to woodlands in Wales.

## 6.1.3 Public Opinion Of Forestry Survey - Woodland Visitors
The Public Opinion of Forestry Survey is carried out every two years and obtains people's attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues, including visits to woodland. Copies of reports and detailed data tables are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/public-opinion-of-forestry/. The results shown in Tables 6.4 and 6.5 and Figure 6.1 have been taken from the UK and country reports on the latest surveys in 2019 and from surveys in earlier years. The reports also include other recreation-related results, such as whether the woodlands visited were in towns or the countryside and any reasons given by survey respondents for not visiting woodlands. In the UK 2019 survey, over three fifths (63%) of respondents said that they had visited woodland in the last few years for walks, picnics or other recreation (Table 6.4).

## 6.2 Visits To Woodland - On-Site Surveys
The previous section provided information on visits to all woodlands (regardless of ownership), based on data from household surveys. This section provides information on visits to Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales/ Forest Service woodland only, based on data from on-site surveys and administrative sources. The information provided in this section covers:
- Visits to the National Forest Estate in Scotland (Forestry and Land
Scotland woodlands) from the All Forests Scotland surveys run from 2004 to 2007 and in 2012-13. An updated estimate of total visits in 2016 is also provided.
- Day visitors to Northern Ireland Forest Service sites where an admission
charge was made.
## 6.2.1 Scotland All Forests Survey
All Forests surveying in Scotland has been undertaken on two occasions. The first All Forests Survey in Scotland was carried out across a three-year period from June 2004 to June 2007, and estimated that around 8.2 million visits are made annually to Forestry and Land Scotland woodland. An estimated 150-200 thousand visits to events in forests and around 300 thousand visits during the hours of darkness (when fieldwork was not undertaken) were also made, giving an overall total of around 8.7 million visits per year. The second All Forests Survey was carried out from November 2012 to October 2013, and estimated an annual total of 9.1 million visits (including visits to events and in the hours of darkness) to Forestry and Land Scotland woodland. This represents a 5% increase on the estimated overall total of 8.7 million visits from the 2004-2007 survey. The estimated number of visits has been updated using data from 224 automatic counters at 165 sites. For sites without counters, estimates have been produced using the results from the 2012-13 All Forests Survey and advice from local managers. This gives an overall estimate of 10.2 million visits to Forestry and Land Scotland woodland in 2016, a 12% increase from 2012-13. Further information is available on the Forestry and Land Scotland website at https://forestryandland.gov.scot/what-we-do/tourism-andrecreation/research-resources-guidance.
## 6.2.2 Northern Ireland Forest Service Day Visitors
Information on visitors to Forest Service sites in Northern Ireland is provided by the Forest Service and relates only to sites where an admission charge is made. In Northern Ireland in 2019-20, 465 thousand people visited those Forest Service sites where an admission charge was made (Table 6.6). This represented a 13% decrease from the previous year, and is reflective of new partnership agreements with local councils for the management of recreation facilities in Forest Service forests coming into effect.

## Introduction
This chapter contains information on:
- employment in forestry and wood processing; - health & safety; and - numbers of businesses.
All of the statistics presented in this chapter relate to UK totals. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. Most of the statistics presented in this chapter have been previously released. Some of the figures in this chapter have been revised since Forestry Statistics 2019. For further details on revisions, see the Employment section of the Sources chapter. A copy of all Employment & Businesses tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- The Annual Business Survey (May 2020) reported average employment1
in 2018 of 16 thousand in forestry, 10 thousand in sawmilling and 6 thousand in panel mills.
- There was estimated to be a total of 7.3 thousand full time equivalent
staff employed2 by primary wood processors in the UK in 2019, a 4% decrease from the total for 2018.
- Accident rates in forestry and wood products have tended to decline in
recent years but are still higher than the averages in agriculture and manufacturing respectively.
- There were 204 establishments in the primary wood processing
industries in the UK using UK-grown roundwood in 2019.
## 7.1 Employment: Annual Business Survey (Abs)
The Annual Business Survey (ABS), carried out by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), includes statistics on employment broken down by Standard Industrial Classification (SIC 2007). In wood processing, SIC 16 (wood products) and SIC 17 (pulp, paper and paper products) have a much wider scope than the data on employment in primary wood processing (Table 7.2a), as they include primary processing of imported material and also some secondary processing. The latest ABS survey was published in May 2020 and includes data to 2018. It recorded average employment in 2018 of 16 thousand in forestry, 10 thousand in sawmilling and 6 thousand in panel mills (Table 7.1).

## 7.2 Employment In Primary Wood Processing
Information on employment in primary wood processing is obtained annually via the sources used to collect data on UK-grown timber (presented in Chapter 2). There was estimated to be a total of 7.3 thousand full time equivalent staff employed by primary wood processors in the UK in 2019 (Table 7.2a), a 4% decrease from the total for 2018. Over one half (57%) of the total employment in 2019 worked in sawmills and over one quarter (29%) worked in wood-based panel mills.

## 7.3 Health & Safety
Accidents involving absence from work of at least seven days are required to be reported to the Health & Safety Executive (HSE). Prior to this time, reporting was required for absences of at least three days. The latest major accident rates for Great Britain, covering 2018-19, show levels similar to 2017-18 rates for both forestry and the wood products sector. Over the longer term, the rates for both sectors have generally declined, but they continue to remain higher than the averages in agriculture and manufacturing respectively (Table 7.3 and Figure 7.1).

## 7.4 Establishments In The Primary Wood Processing Industries
Table 7.4 shows the number of primary wood processors, according to the sampling frames used for Forest Research surveys of establishments using UK timber. The figures in Table 7.4 do not correspond with the VAT and PAYE registration information given in Table 7.5. The figures here count establishments (sites) rather than businesses and include those that do not need to register for VAT or PAYE. They also have a different basis for classification, so some businesses that are excluded from Table 7.5 because of their VAT/PAYE classification are included in this table (typically businesses where primary wood processing is a small part of their total activity), and some businesses included in Table 7.5 are excluded here (usually because they do not use UK-grown timber). The number of establishments in the primary wood processing industries using UK-grown roundwood has reduced from 261 in 2010 to 204 in 2019, a 22% decrease.

## 7.5 Vat And/Or Paye Registered Businesses
Table 7.5 shows the number of VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses classified under forestry and primary wood processing. The headings shown potentially include businesses not traditionally regarded as forestry or primary wood processing, and some businesses traditionally included in forestry and primary wood processing are excluded as they are classified to other headings of the Standard Industrial Classification (SIC). A total of 4,185 forestry businesses, 530 sawmilling businesses, 125 woodbased panel businesses and 230 pulp & paper businesses were registered for VAT and/or PAYE purposes in the UK in 2019. There has been an overall increase in forestry businesses over the last ten years, whilst sawmilling and pulp and paper businesses have declined.

## Introduction
This chapter contains statistics on:
- timber prices; - gross value added (GVA); - Government expenditure on forestry; and - grant schemes.
Estimates for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are included, where possible, in addition to UK or GB totals. Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. Most of the statistics presented in this chapter have been previously released. Some of the figures for earlier years have been revised since Forestry Statistics 2019. For further details on revisions, see the Finance & Prices section of the Sources chapter. A copy of all Finance & Prices tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index for Great Britain was 14.8%
lower in real terms in the year to March 2020, compared with the previous year.
- The Softwood Sawlog Price Index for Great Britain was 18.6% lower in
real terms in the 6 months to March 2020, compared with the corresponding period of the previous year.
- Gross value added (GVA) in primary wood processing (sawmilling, panels
and pulp & paper) was £1.88 billion in the UK in 2018. GVA in forestry was £0.67 billion.
- Net expenditure on public forests by Forestry England and by Forestry
and Land Scotland totalled £26.2 million in 2019-20. A further £89.9 million was spent by the Forestry Commission and Scottish Forestry on other activities.
- A total of £80.6 million was paid in grants by the Forestry Commission,
Scottish Forestry and the Welsh Government in 2019-20.
## 8.1 Timber Prices
Timber Price Indices are based on sales of softwood (conifers) by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland and Natural Resources Wales and are released every 6 months. The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index monitors changes in the average price received per cubic metre for timber that Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales sold standing, where the purchaser is responsible for harvesting. The Softwood Sawlog Price Index monitors changes in the average price received per cubic metre of sawlogs (roundwood with a top diameter of 14 cm or more, destined to be sawn into planks or boards) sold at roadside by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales. Standing timber and sawlogs are distinct markets and may show different price movements. The data are averages for historic periods, so may be slow to show any turning points. These indices are used to monitor trends in timber prices and to provide information on the state of the UK timber industry. They are also used by the UK timber industry, alongside other economic indicators, in contract reviews. There is little other information currently available on wood prices before primary processing and no price index is available for broadleaves. Prices for outputs of primary wood processing are collected by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) in the Producer Price Indices (PPIs), and these are available in the MM22 dataset which gives detailed PPIs monthly. Table 8.1 presents the coniferous standing sales and sawlog price indices for Great Britain to March 2020. The coniferous standing sales price index for Great Britain was 14.8% lower in real terms in the year to March 2020, compared with the previous year (Table 8.1). The softwood sawlog price index was 18.6% lower in real terms in the 6 months to March 2020, compared with the corresponding period in the previous year. These decreases follow a generally increasing trend in both indices in recent years.

Source: Timber Price Indices: data to March 2020 Notes:
1. The price indices are constructed from information on sales by Forestry England/ Forestry
and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales only.
2. The standing sales index uses the Fisher method with 5 year chain linking to take account
of changes in the size mix over time.
3. Nominal prices are the actual prices at that point in time. 4. Real terms values are obtained by using the GDP deflator to convert to "constant prices"
(in this case prices in 2016). This allows trends in timber prices to be tracked without the influence of inflation.
5. The standing sales index excludes sales by Natural Resources Wales from April 2017. 6. Sawlog prices in Wales in the year to March 2018 include long term contract rates for the
clearance of infected larch.

## 8.2 Gross Value Added
Gross value added (GVA) measures the contribution to the economy of each individual producer, industry or sector in the United Kingdom. It is the difference between the value of outputs and the value of intermediate consumption, so mainly comprises employment costs and profits. The Annual Business Survey (ABS) carried out by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) includes statistics on gross value added for different industries, classified using the UK Standard Industrial Classification (SIC 2007). Further information on the ABS is available from the ONS website. Table 8.2 shows that, in 2018, GVA in primary wood processing (sawmilling, panels and pulp & paper) was reported to be £1.88 billion and GVA in forestry was £0.67 billion.

2. The 2014 to 2016 and 2018 figures for panels have been suppressed in the figures
released by ONS, so the figures here cover both panels and the manufacture of assembled parquet floors (SIC 16.22) for those years. Panels accounted for 99% of the total of SIC codes 16.21 (panels) and 16.22 in 2017.
3. Excludes other wood-using industries.
## 8.3 Government Expenditure On Public Forests
Table 8.3 provides information on net expenditure on public forests by Forestry England and by Forestry and Land Scotland. This covers expenditure less income for land that is owned or managed by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland. Other expenditure by the Forestry Commission and Scottish Forestry is covered in Table 8.5. Figures for Wales on a comparable basis are currently unavailable. Net expenditure on public forests by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland in 2019-20 totalled £26.2 million. This comprised £22.4 million in England and £3.8 million in Scotland. Recreation, conservation & heritage accounted for £78.7 million of the total expenditure in 2019-20, harvesting & haulage for £40.8 million and other expenditure on public forests for £107.0 million. Timber sales generated a total income of £136.2 million in 2019-20. Recreation, conservation & heritage accounted for a further £32.0 million and other income from public forests for an additional £32.1 million.

## 8.4 Other Government Expenditure On Forestry
Table 8.4 provides information on other expenditure (excluding public forests) by the Forestry Commission and Scottish Forestry. It includes expenditure by National Offices in England and Scotland as well as expenditure on GB level functions. Figures for Wales on a comparable basis are not currently available. Expenditure on land that is owned or managed by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland is covered in Table 8.3. In addition to expenditure on public forests, the Forestry Commission/ Scottish Forestry spent a total of £89.8 million on other activities in 2019-20 (Table 8.4). Together, the Forestry Commission and Scottish Forestry used £65.4 million for grants and partnership funding and £12.8 million for policy, regulation & administration in 2019-20. A further £11.6 million of funding was provided to Forest Research by Defra, the Forestry Commission and the Devolved Administrations.

2. Excludes miscellaneous income. 3. EU co-financing not subtracted from grant expenditure. In England authority for the Rural
Development Programme for England (RDPE) grant scheme rests with Defra. Grant expenditure funded by Defra that is managed by the Forestry Commission is excluded from this table.
4. The estimates for GB funded research relate to Forest Research income from Defra, the
Forestry Commission and Devolved Administrations. The increase in "Research - GB funded" and corresponding decrease in "International & GB support services" from 2015-16
to 2016-17 largely reflect organisational change within the Forestry Commission, with the transfer of some functions into Forest Research in April 2016.
5. Country costs for "policy, regulation & administration" include shares of GB support service
costs.
6. Central services were disbanded following reorganisation of the Forestry Commission in
April 2019.
## 8.5 Grant Schemes
Private sector woodland in Great Britain is supported by a range of grants for creating new woodland and managing existing woodland. The Woodland Grant Scheme (WGS) was introduced in 1988, at the same time as tax relief was phased out. In Scotland, WGS was replaced by the Scottish Forestry Grant Scheme (SFGS) in 2003, by Rural Development Contracts in 2006 and has now been replaced by the Forestry Grant Scheme. The English Woodland Grant Scheme (EWGS) was launched in July 2005 and has now been replaced by Countryside Stewardship and other grants (e.g. the Woodland Carbon Fund and the HS2 Woodland Fund). Better Woodlands for Wales (BWW) was launched in December 2005 and has now been replaced by Glastir (administered by the Welsh Government). Because of the differences between these schemes, it is increasingly difficult to provide comparable statistics across the three countries. The following tables provide information relating to planting and grants:
- Table 1.13a and 1.13b for total areas of new planting; - Table 1.14a and 1.14b for total areas of grant-funded restocking; - Table 8.4 for expenditure by the Forestry Commission/ Scottish Forestry
on grants and partnership funding;
- Table 8.5 (below) for grant expenditure by the Forestry Commission
(including grant expenditure managed by the Forestry Commission on behalf of Defra), by Scottish Forestry and by the Welsh Government.
Table 8.5 presents information on grant money paid in 2010-11 to 2019-20. A total of £80.6 million was paid in grants in 2019-20, a 5% increase from the total for the previous year. At a country level, £52.2 million was paid in grants in Scotland in 2019-20 (an increase of 4% from the previous year), £22.4 million was paid in England (a 9% increase) and £6.0 million in Wales (an increase of 1%).

Coverage:
United Kingdom Geographical breakdown: Country
## Introduction
This chapter contains information about world forestry, presenting global figures by region alongside data for the UK and the EU. Topics covered include woodland area, carbon stocks, wood removals, production and apparent consumption of wood products and international trade in forest products. The data are produced by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO). Further information on the data sources and methodology used to compile the figures is provided in the Sources chapter. All of the statistics presented in this chapter have been previously released by the FAO. For further details on revisions, see the International Forestry section of the Sources chapter. Data for the European Union (EU) relate to all 27 current EU members, excluding the UK, for all of the years shown. Data for Europe cover 26 of the EU members (excluding Cyprus), the Russian Federation and a number of other European countries, including Norway, Switzerland, Serbia and Ukraine. A copy of all International Forestry tables can be accessed in spreadsheet format from the Data Downloads web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/data-downloads/.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- At around 13% forest cover in 2020, the UK is one of the least densely
forested countries in Europe. This compares with 46% for Europe as a whole and 31% worldwide.
- The global forest area reduced by around 4.7 million hectares (0.1%) per
year between 2010 and 2020.
- Carbon stocks in forest living biomass have increased in Europe, North &
Central America and Asia between 1990 and 2020, but have shown an overall decrease at a global level over this period.
- A total of 4.0 billion m3 underbark of wood was removed from global
forests in 2018, of which around one half (49%) was for use as woodfuel and the remainder was industrial roundwood (for use by wood processors).
- Global production of wood products in 2018 totalled 492 million m3 of
sawnwood, 404 million m3 of wood-based panels and 408 million tonnes of paper & paperboard.
- Europe consumed around one quarter (24%) of all sawnwood, around
one fifth (21%) of the world's wood-based panels and almost one quarter (23%) of all paper and paperboard in 2018.
- The UK was the second largest net importer (imports less exports) of
forest products in 2018, with net imports of US $8.6 billion. The largest net importer was China.
## 9.1 Forest Cover: International Comparisons
The FAO Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) is a collation of forest data undertaken by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) at the global level every five years. The UK is one of the least densely forested countries in Europe with around 13% of its total land area covered in forest in 2020 (Figure 9.1, Table 9.1). This compares with 46% for Europe as a whole and 31% worldwide.

## 9.3 Annual Changes In Forest Area
The global forest area has reduced from around 4,128 million hectares in 1990 to 4,059 million hectares in 2020. This represents a decrease of around 7.8 million hectares (0.2%) per year between 1990 and 2000, of around 5.2 million hectares (0.1%) per year between 2000 and 2010 and of around 4.7 million hectares (0.1%) per year between 2010 and 2020 (Table 9.2). The forest area has reduced in most regions since 1990, except for Europe and Asia (where areas have increased).

## 9.4 Forest Carbon Stocks
Carbon stocks in forest living biomass have increased in Europe and North & Central America between 1990 and 2020, but have shown an overall decrease at a global level over this period (Table 9.3). The overall decrease has mainly been driven by declines in South America and Africa, where forest areas have decreased. Carbon stocks in biomass also increased slightly in Asia, where carbon sequestered in new plantations has balanced out carbon losses from areas of deforestation.

## 9.5 Wood Removals
A total of 4.0 billion m3 underbark of wood was removed from global forests in 2018, of which around one half (49%) was for use as woodfuel and the remainder was industrial roundwood (for use by wood processors) (Table 9.4). North & Central America and Europe together accounted for around three fifths (59%) of all industrial roundwood removals in 2018. Globally, removals of industrial roundwood increased by 11% between 2015 and 2018, resulting from increases in all regions. Nearly three quarters (73%) of woodfuel removals in 2018 took place in Asia and Africa. Globally, removals of woodfuel increased by 2% between 2015 and 2018.

## 9.6 Production Of Wood Products
Global production of wood products in 2018 totalled 492 million m3 of sawnwood, 404 million m3 of woodbased panels and 408 million tonnes of paper & paperboard (Table 9.5). Europe produced around one third (34%) of all sawnwood in 2018 (mainly in EU countries), with over one quarter (29%) in Asia and a further quarter (27%) produced in North & Central America. Overall, sawnwood production increased by 10% between 2015 and 2018, driven by increases in most regions. Wood-based panels were more commonly produced in Asia, accounting for around three fifths (60%) of global production in 2018. Around one fifth (22%) were produced in Europe (mainly in EU countries) and 12% in North & Central America. At a global level, wood-based panel production increased by 5% between 2015 and 2018, mainly driven by an increase in Europe. Asia also accounted for almost one half (47%) of paper and paperboard production in 2018, with around one quarter (26%) in Europe and a further 21% in North & Central America. At a global level, paper and paperboard production increased slightly (by 0.4%) between 2015 and 2018.

## 9.7 Apparent Consumption Of Wood Products
Apparent consumption (defined as production + imports - exports) of wood products around the world totalled 486 million m3 sawnwood, 404 million m3 wood-based panels and 408 million tonnes of paper and paperboard in 2018 (Table 9.6). Two fifths (41%) of all sawnwood in 2018 was consumed in Asia and around one quarter each in North & Central America (26%) and in Europe (24%). Reflecting the increased production of sawnwood (see Table 9.5), apparent consumption of sawnwood increased by 10% overall between 2015 and 2018. This was driven by increases in apparent consumption in most regions. Asia consumed around three fifths (59%) of the world's wood-based panels in 2018, around one fifth (21%) was consumed in Europe and 14% in North & Central America. Apparent consumption of wood-based panels worldwide increased by 5% between 2015 and 2018, largely resulting from increased demand in Europe. Nearly one half (49%) of all paper and paperboard in 2018 was consumed in Asia, around one fifth (23%) in Europe and a further one fifth (21%) in North & Central America. At a global level, apparent consumption of paper and paperboard increased by 1% between 2015 and 2018.

## 9.8 World Trade In Forest Products
Figures 9.6 and 9.7 show the largest net importers and exporters (by value) of forest products in 2018. This covers trade in roundwood, sawnwood, woodbased panels, wood pulp and paper and paperboard, but excludes trade in secondary processed wood (e.g. furniture made from wood). Values are expressed in US dollars (the units reported in the data published by FAO). The UK was the second largest net importer (imports less exports) of forest products in 2018, with net imports of US $8.6 billion (Figure 9.6). The largest net importer in 2018 was China (US $42.3 billion) and Japan was the third largest net importer (US $7.7 billion).

Briquettes Similar to wood pellets (see below) but larger, briquettes are made from compressed wood fibres and used for heating.
Broadleaves Trees that do not have needles or cones, such as oak, birch and beech. A few, such as alder, have cone-like structures for their seeds which are not true cones.
Cement bonded particleboard Sheet material manufactured under pressure, based on wood and other vegetable particles bound with hydraulic cement and possibly containing additives.
## Chipboard (See Particleboard).
Clearfell areas Sites where all trees have been felled at once. In non-clearfell areas, only some trees are felled at any one time.
Clustering A sampling technique where the entire population is divided into groups, or clusters, and a random sample of these clusters is selected. All (or a selection of) observations in the selected clusters are included in the sample. Cluster sampling is often used when a random sample would produce a list of subjects so widely scattered that surveying them would prove to be far too expensive.
Confidence interval An estimated range of values that is likely to include an unknown population parameter (i.e. a fixed value for the population as a whole). The confidence interval around an estimate is derived from the sample data, and is used to indicate the reliability of the estimate.
## Confor Confederation Of Forest Industries. Conifers Trees With Needles And Cones, Such As Spruce, Pine And Larch.
Conversion factor Numerical factor by which a quantity that is expressed in one set of units must be multiplied in order to convert it into another set of units.
Coppice Trees that are cut near ground level (or sometimes higher, in which case they are called pollards), causing them to produce many small shoots. These shoots are harvested every few years at a relatively early age for products such as staves, fencing, fuel and charcoal. "Coppice with standards" includes scattered trees that are left to grow as normal ("standards").
Deadwood Non-living woody biomass not contained in the litter, either standing or lying on the ground. For wood carbon reporting, the minimum was 15 cm diameter for standing and lying deadwood, and 7 cm dbh (diameter at breast height) for fallen trees.
## Defra Department For Environment, Food And Rural Affairs.
Deliveries The quantities of UK-grown roundwood that are delivered to processors (mills) or for other uses (such as woodfuel and exports). Note that for sawmills and round fencing mills, the deliveries figure reported is actually the quantity of roundwood consumed by the mill, which may differ from the true deliveries figure if the levels of input stocks vary.
Direct production Timber that is sold after the trees have been felled by the woodland owner or their contractors.
Establishment The first five to ten years or formative period that ends once young trees are of sufficient size that, given adequate protection, they are likely to survive at the required stocking.

## 11.1 Sources: Woodland Area And Planting Introduction
The definition of woodland in United Kingdom forestry statistics is land under stands of trees with a canopy cover of at least 20% (or having the potential to achieve this), including integral open space, and including felled areas that are awaiting restocking. There is no minimum height for trees to form a woodland at maturity, so the definition includes woodland scrub but not areas with only shrub species such as gorse or Rhododendron. In this report, statistics based on the National Forest Inventory (NFI), refer to woods and forests of at least 0.5 hectares, as mapped through the NFI. Previously, figures based on the 1995-99 National Inventory of Woodland and Trees included sample-based estimates for woods and forests between 0.1 hectares and 2.0 hectares in addition to mapped areas of 2.0 hectares or over. Both definitions are slightly different than those used internationally which are based on 10% canopy cover, a minimum height at maturity of 5m and minimum area of 0.5 hectares. Integral open space is included in woodland area figures derived from the National Forest Inventory if the areas of open space are less than 0.5 hectares; larger areas are mapped out and excluded from the woodland area figures. This differs slightly from the approach used for the National Inventory of Woodland and Trees, where areas of open space of up to 1.0 hectare were included as woodland. Woodland includes native and non-native trees; semi-natural and plantation areas. Woodland habitat types are not currently differentiated in these statistics. Most public sector woodland is managed by Forestry England (FE), Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS), Natural Resources Wales (NRW), or the Forest Service (FS) in Northern Ireland. Woodland owned by local authorities, the Ministry of Defence, non-government organisations including the Woodland Trust and other public sector bodies are included in "private sector woodland". The Natural Resources Wales woodland areas relate to the Welsh Government Woodland Estate. There is approximately 900 hectares of woodland on National Nature Reserves and other land managed by Natural Resources Wales that is not included in the Natural Resources Wales figures. The following pages provide more detail on the data sources and methodology used to produce statistics on woodland area and planting. A quality report on Woodland Statistics is available from our website at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.

Estimates of woodland area in Great Britain are based on figures produced from forest inventories. Until recently, forest inventories in Great Britain were undertaken every 15 years or so. The current National Forest Inventory (NFI), unlike previous inventories, is planned to run on a continuous 5-year cycle. As forest inventories are generally not designed to produce annual figures, a process is required for updating the results on an annual basis to take account of changes in woodland area. The methodology currently used to calculate annual woodland area estimates is described below. The data processing takes place in Excel. The main outputs are aggregates from the source data, or breakdowns expressed as percentages, and do not require complex data analysis techniques. 1. For Great Britain, woodland area estimates are based on the latest NFI woodland area map of Great Britain available. In this release, woodland area estimates at March 2019 and at March 2020 are both based on the provisional NFI woodland area map at March 2019. 2. The map is overlaid with a map of Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland and Natural Resources Wales (Welsh Government Woodland Estate only) land, to enable a breakdown by ownership to be estimated. This also enables FE/FLS/NRW "other land" areas to be derived (Table 1.5). For woodland area estimates at March 2019, FE/FLS/NRW legal boundaries at March 2019 are used, and for estimates at March 2020, FE/FLS/NRW legal boundaries at March 2020 are used. 3. The woodland area breakdown by type of woodland (conifer or broadleaf) is estimated from the conifer/broadleaf breakdown of stocked woodland area, with areas of felled and open space allocated to conifer or broadleaf pro-rata. Estimates for stocked areas at March 2012 derived from NFI interim field survey results are updated to take into account new planting since that date, for which the conifer/broadleaf breakdown is also known. As the area of new planting is much smaller than total woodland area, the effect of this update on the overall conifer/broadleaf breakdown is very small. The steps above are sufficient to determine woodland area estimates at March 2019, broken down by ownership and conifer/broadleaf. To obtain estimates at March 2020, two more steps need to be performed, which are described below. 4. Net ownership transfers of woodland between private sector and FE/FLS/NRW from March 2019 to March 2020, as inferred by the differences in FE/FLS/NRW legal boundaries between those two dates, are broken down by conifer/broadleaf. The breakdown is based on NFI Interpreted Forest Type (IFT) at those dates, derived from photographic interpretation of the NFI woodland map. The "Conifer" and "Mixed mainly conifer" (>80% conifer) IFT categories are assigned to conifers, and the "Broadleaves" and "Mixed mainly broadleaved" (>80% broadleaved) categories are assigned to broadleaves. For the other IFT categories, the conifer/broadleaf breakdown is allocated prorata based on the conifer/broadleaf breakdown of woodland area by ownership (private sector or FE/FLS/NRW) before transfer. 5. The woodland area figures are then updated to March 2020 by adding areas of new planting in 2019-20, broken down by ownership and type. Information on previous methodologies can be found in the Methodology Note: Annual Woodland Estimates produced in May 2012, on the Methodology and Outputs web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/about-our-statistics/methodology-and-outputs/. The methodology and outputs relevant to UK woodland area, planting and restocking were reviewed in 2014. The review report is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/methodology-and-outputs/. The provisional 2019 woodland map differs from the figures for woodland area provided in the NFI report on *Tree cover outside woodland in Great Britain*, that were based on the NFI 2013 map and the National Tree MapTM (NTMTM), the latter in combination with samples of visual aerial photograph interpretation and field sampling outside of areas on the NFI map. The estimates in the tree cover report include estimates of woodland area outside the NFI map derived from the other sources. Work is ongoing to calibrate the figures, and the NFI woodland map for 2019 incorporates amendments made to date as a result of the calibration (as well as additional areas of woodland creation since 2013). Further information on the methodology used by the National Forest Inventory and comparisons of results from the NFI and previous woodland area estimates is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/national-forest-inventory/. Figures for Northern Ireland (Forest Service and non-Forest Service woodland) are provided by the Forest Service (http://www.daerani.gov.uk/topics/forestry). Woodland areas from 2012 provided in this release have been obtained from the NI draft woodland register. The NI draft woodland register is based on a combined dataset derived from fourteen individual datasets from statutory bodies including Forest Service, Land and Property Services, and the Northern Ireland Environment Agency, and non statutory bodies which include Woodland Trust and National Trust. The minimum area of woodland that has been included in the register is 0.1 hectares. The use of the NI draft woodland register has resulted in a step change in the non-Forest Service woodland areas reported for Northern Ireland. This should be interpreted as an improvement in the data reported, rather than an actual increase in woodland area.
Certified woodland area Data on certified woodland areas are obtained from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), and contact with individual land owners and managers. Some of the certified woodland has dual certification, i.e. it is certified under both the FSC scheme and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) scheme. The data collected from FSC are the areas that are certified for each certificate holder. Follow-up enquiries are then made with larger certificate holders to check the certified areas and to provide a country breakdown. As all FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands are certified, the total woodland area (as derived above, from the NFI map and FE/FLS/NRW boundaries and from Forest Service administrative records) is used, rather than the area provided on the certificates.
Quality The statistics on woodland area presented here refer to woodland as a land use rather than as a land cover, so felled areas and small areas (less than 0.5 ha) of open space are included within the definition of woodland. Some statistics on woodland area as a land cover are available from other sources (e.g. Countryside Survey 2007, www.countrysidesurvey.org.uk, and associated Land Cover Map; a more recent Land Cover Map 2015 is also available). Detailed information on the quality of the woodland area statistics presented in this publication is available in the "Quality Report: Woodland Statistics" at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Further quality information on our Official Statistics is also available from this location.
Revisions Figures at March 2020 have been revised since their previous release in "Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2019 Edition" to incorporate late revisions to new planting figures for 2019-20. This has resulted in minor changes of up to 1 thousand hectares. Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2020 Edition". Information on significant revisions to published statistics is provided in the quality report on Woodland Statistics, available from our Quality web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors are dealt with and can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.
Further information Accompanying tables to this release, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/data-downloads/, provide longer time series data by country for certified woodland. Figures for woodland area in the UK are provided to international organisations every 4-5 years; to the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) for the "Global Forest Resources Assessment" (www.fao.org/forest-resources-assessment/en/), and to Forest Europe for the "State of Europe's Forests" (https://foresteurope.org/). Figures for woodland area are also used to compile the UK's Greenhouse Gas Inventory for the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) sector, submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Official statistics on UK greenhouse gas emissions are produced by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy and available at www.gov.uk/government/collections/uk-greenhouse-gas-emissions-statistics.
Release schedule Woodland area and certified woodland area data are released twice a year. Provisional figures are published in Provisional Woodland Statistics (previously Woodland Area, Planting and Publicly Funded Restocking) in early June. Final figures are released in Forestry Statistics at the end of September. Provisional figures for woodland area and certified woodland area at March 2021 will be published on 17 June 2021 in "Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2021 Edition". Final results for woodland area and certified woodland area at March 2021 will be published on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.1.2 Sources: Woodland Inventories
Woodland Inventories The current National Forest Inventory is the first continuous inventory of British woodlands and is being conducted on a five year cycle. Prior to the National Forest Inventory, a series of one-off woodland inventories took place in Great Britain every 15 years or so. Most inventories used slightly different definitions of woodland, so some apparent changes in area over time are due to changing definitions. The principal differences for inventories since 1905 are:
- 1905 Felled areas and scrub were not included. - 1924 Undertaken by questionnaire; woods smaller than 2 acres (0.8
hectares) were not included.
- 1947 Woodlands with an area of less than 5 acres (2 hectares) were not
included.
- 1965 Woodlands with an area of less than 1 acre (0.4 hectares) were
not included.
- 1980 Woodlands with an area of less than 0.25 hectares were not
included.
- 1995-99 Woodlands with an area of 0.1-2 hectares were included on a
sample basis; some woodland missing from earlier surveys was included.
- 2010 on All woodlands with an area of 0.5 hectares or more have been
included; all woodlands below 0.5 hectares have been excluded.
- Estimates of woodland area prior to 1905 have been obtained from a
variety of sources, including:
- Domesday Survey of England - for information in 1086; - Scottish Woodland History (TC Smout ed, 1997) - for estimate for end
Middle Ages in Scotland;
- Roy maps c1750 - for Scotland 17th Century estimate.
National Forest Inventory In the latest inventory, a digital map based on aerial photography, satellite imagery and other data sources has been produced, from which estimates of total woodland areas have been derived. Data are currently being collected for one hectare sample squares, covering a wide variety of topics, including ownership type, species and age. Initial results for 2010 were published for countries (Great Britain, England, Wales, Scotland) in Spring 2011. Interim results, based on field survey data combined with information from the NFI map, have since been published on the National Forest Inventory web pages at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/toolsand-resources/national-forest-inventory/.
## 11.1.3 Sources: New Planting & Restocking New Planting & Restocking
Introduction New planting is the creation of new areas of woodland. Restocking is the replanting of areas of woodland that have been felled. New planting can use planting/seeding or natural colonisation. Restocking can also use planting/seeding or natural regeneration.
Data sources and methodology Information about Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales and Forest Service new planting and restocking comes from administrative systems. For new planting and restocking by Forestry and Land Scotland and by Natural Resources Wales, the figures obtained relate to net areas (i.e. excluding integral open space). These are converted to estimates of gross areas (i.e. including integral open space) for consistency with other planting and woodland area data, by using an assumption of 15% open space. Information about other woodland has come principally from grant schemes, including Countryside Stewardship in England, Glastir in Wales, Forestry Grant Scheme in Scotland and legacy grant schemes. Areas receiving grant are allocated to years by date of payment. For natural colonisation and regeneration, the areas are generally those for which the second instalment of grant has been paid during the year. The second instalment is approved when woodland reaches a certain stage and density of growth, so this information corresponds approximately to the amount of new and restocked woodland created. The coverage and level of grant support differ across schemes, so that figures on grant-aided planting are not directly comparable between countries or over time. Grant support for restocking of conifers changed with the introduction of Rural Development Contracts in Scotland in 2008 and again with the introduction of the Forestry Grant Scheme in 2015. This will have led to a reduction in the proportion of private sector restocking that is grant aided and therefore reported for Scotland. New planting estimates for England also include areas supported by the Woodland Trust and areas funded by Natural England (Higher Level Stewardship / Countryside Stewardship). From 2016-17, the estimated area of new planting includes new woodland creation supported by the Woodland Trust under the MOREwoods and Partnerships England projects. From 2017- 18, the estimated area of new planting also includes new woodland creation supported by the Environment Agency. Areas of land acquired by the National Forest Company for new planting have been included from 2015-16. To avoid potential double counting, areas of new planting by the National Forest Company that are believed to be supported by grant aid or by the Woodland Trust (and have therefore already been included in the figures reported for these other sources) have been excluded. Local estimates for private sector areas of planting and restocking which are not grant-aided were included for England, Wales and Scotland up to 2009-10, where possible. Estimates of non-grant-aided planting and restocking were relatively small (less than one thousand hectares annually), and it has been assumed that all of this area is broadleaves. A small estimate for broadleaved new planting without grant aid in Scotland in 2016-17 to 2019-20 was also included. No estimates have been included for restocking with Sitka spruce in Scotland, or for restocking in England, that are no longer supported by grants. It is assumed that there is no private sector non-grant aided new planting and restocking in Northern Ireland. The use of natural regeneration in non-clearfell systems may be increasing - particularly for broadleaves in England. These systems are not satisfactorily represented by measuring restocking area within any given year, and so broadleaf regeneration may be under-reported in this release and other statistics.
Figures for Northern Ireland (Forest Service and private sector woodland) are provided by the Forest Service (www.daera-ni.gov.uk/topics/forestry). The methodology and outputs relevant to UK woodland area, planting and restocking were reviewed in 2014. The review report is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/methodology-and-outputs/.
Revisions Figures for 2019-20 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2020 Edition". Figures have been revised from those provided in " Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2020 Edition", resulting in minor changes (of no more than 0.2 thousand hectares) to the estimated new planting in 2019-20. Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in " Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2020 Edition". Information on significant revisions to published statistics is provided in the quality report on Woodland Statistics, available from our Quality web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.

Provisional figures for new planting and restocking in 2020-21 will be published on 17 June 2021 in " Provisional Woodland Statistics: 2021 Edition". Final results for new planting and restocking in 2020-21 will be published on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.1.4 Sources: Felling Felling
Introduction Under the Forestry Act 1967 and the Forestry and Land Management Act (Scotland) 2018, it is illegal to fell trees in Great Britain without prior approval, although there are a few exceptions (for trees below a specified size, dangerous trees, and very small scale felling operations). There is a presumption against removal of woodland and loss of forest cover in the UK, so felling licences issued under the Forestry Act (or felling permissions under the Forestry and Land Management Act in Scotland) will normally be conditional (where felling approval is granted subject to restocking). However, the permanent removal of trees may be granted (through an unconditional felling licence) for thinning woodland (a standard woodland management practice) or if there are overriding environmental considerations, for example to enable the restoration of important habitats (and consent may be required under the relevant Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations). The removal of trees may also be authorised under planning regulations, to enable development (including for windfarms). In this case, a felling licence is not required. The Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Natural Resources Wales and the Northern Ireland Forest Service may also require trees to be felled to prevent the spread of pests and diseases, by serving a Statutory Plant Health Notice (SPHN) on the affected site.
Data sources and methodology Information about felling licences and Statutory Plant Health Notices comes from Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Natural Resources Wales and Forest Service administrative systems. Data on felling licences relates to felling licences that have been issued. It does not indicate whether the felling has taken place (and if so, when).
Quality All of the statistics on felling in this chapter are outside the scope of National Statistics.
Revisions Figures on felling licences in 2019-20 are released for the first time in this publication. 2019-20 figures for Statutory Plant Health Notices are not yet available. Figures on Statutory Plant Health Notices in Scotland have been revised from those released in Forestry Statistics 2019 for all years, to reflect a change from reporting on the number of sites where a Statutory Plant Health Notice was issued to reporting on the number of Statutory Plant Health Notices issued. Most revisions are relatively small, as the number of sites where multiple notices are issued and the number of notices issued that cover multiple sites are often at around the same level. Larger revisions (down by 79 in 2012-13 and down by 207 in 2018-19) reflect a higher level of notices issued to cover multiple sites. The area associated with the revised numbers of Statutory Plant Health Notices in Scotland relates to Larch only and has not altered by more than 0.1 thousand hectares. UK figures have also been revised, to reflect the changes to the Scotland data. Other figures are unchanged. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors are dealt with and can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.
Further information Some related figures for England on felling licences have been released. Data on the total area covered by felling licences (conditional and unconditional) were released on 11 June 2020 in "Forestry Commission Key Performance Indicators 2020".

## 11.2 Sources: Timber
Introduction This page provides an overview of the sources for the timber statistics presented in Chapter 2; more detailed information is provided on the following pages. The chapter covers wood production (removals) from UK woodland, and consumption and production by primary wood processors in the UK. The timber statistics presented cover both softwood (wood from coniferous trees such as spruce, pine and larch) and hardwood (wood from non-coniferous trees such as oak, birch and beech). Please refer to the Glossary for an explanation of the terms used. Quantities of wood can be expressed in different units. Conversion factors can be used to convert between units.
Data sources and methodology Statistics on timber are obtained from a number of sources. For wood production (removals), data are compiled from:
- Administrative records of removals from Forestry England (FE), Forestry
and Land Scotland (FLS), Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and Northern Ireland Forest Service (FS) woodlands;
- the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey for softwood removals
from private sector woodlands and
- deliveries of hardwood to wood processing industries (see below) for
total hardwood removals.
- There is no source of data for hardwood removals from private sector
woodlands, so these are estimated to be:
- deliveries of hardwood to wood processing industries (see below) less - hardwood removals from FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands.
Timber availability forecasts are obtained from the "50 year forecast of softwood availability" and the "50 year forecast of hardwood availability", released in April 2014 and available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/national-forest-inventory/. Deliveries are estimated from the following sources:
- the Sawmill Survey; - the Wood Panel Industries Federation (for wood-based panels); - the Confederation of Forest Industries, Confor (for integrated pulp and
paper mills);
- the Confederation of Paper Industries (for paper production); - the Survey of Round Fencing Manufacturers; - the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey (for softwood deliveries to
woodfuel);
- shavings manufacturers; - companies believed to export roundwood and/or chips.
Estimates are also provided by the Expert Group on Timber and Trade Statistics: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/aboutour-statistics/expert-group-on-timber-and-trade-statistics/. The Methodology note: UK wood production, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/methodology-and-outputs/ sets out the data analysis methods used to produce annual estimates of UK wood production.
Quality Detailed information on the quality of the statistics presented in this publication is available in the "Quality Report: UK Wood Production and Trade" at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Further quality information on our Official Statistics, including separate reports for each of the industry surveys used in this release, is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
Revisions Figures for 2019 and earlier years have been previously published. They are however subject to revisions from those published in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures" and previous publications, to reflect late updates to administrative or survey data. Further details on any revisions made are provided in the following pages. Information on significant revisions to published statistics is provided in the quality report on UK Wood Production and Trade, available from our Quality web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/aboutour-statistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors to these statistics are dealt with, and can be found at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.
Further information Most of these statistics are used to compile data that are sent to international organisations in the Joint Forest Sector Questionnaires, in some cases giving more detail than in this release. These returns are published as Official Statistics on the Forest Research website; provisional figures in May and final figures in September/ October. The statistics are used by Eurostat Forestry Statistics, UNECE Timber Bulletins, and UN/FAO Forest Product Statistics and are published on the FAOSTAT database (www.fao.org/faostat/en/#home). Summary results from the FAOSTAT database are provided in the International Forestry chapter. The definitions used in this publication are consistent with the international definitions, as given in the Joint Forest Sector Questionnaire definitions, available at www.fao.org/forestry/statistics/80572/en/. The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Committee on Forests and the Forest Industry (previously the UNECE Timber Committee) also collects, on an annual basis, estimates for the current year and projections for the following year of wood production, imports and exports. Results are available on the UNECE website (www.unece.org/forests/fpm/timbercommittee.html). Copies of UK returns for the UNECE Timber Forecast Questionnaire are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/international-returns/unece-timber-forecast-questionnaire/. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy publishes an annual Digest of UK Energy Statistics (www.gov.uk/government/collections/digest-of-uk-energy-statistics-dukes). Chapter 7 of this digest covers renewable sources of energy including wood. Figures for wood use in renewable energy statistics take into account wood from all sources (including processed wood, recycled wood and imports), not just UK-grown roundwood.
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.1 Sources: Wood Production
Sources Figures on UK wood production (or removals) are compiled from a variety of sources:
- Forestry England (FE), Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS), Natural
Resources Wales (NRW) and Northern Ireland Forest Service (FS) administrative records - for all removals from FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands;
- the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey - for softwood removals
from private sector woodlands and
- statistics on deliveries - for total hardwood removals.
The compilation of data on wood production was extended in 2004 to include Northern Ireland. These sources cover removals of roundwood (trunk and branch wood) only. A survey was introduced in 2009 to collect data on removals of brash (branch wood and leaf material) and stumps (above-ground base part of trees). The collection of stump removals was discontinued in 2012.
Methodology Figures for removals from FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands are converted from cubic metres (m3) to green tonnes using standard conversion factors. For total softwood figures, the results from the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey are combined with the data for FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands to produce total softwood removals. For hardwood figures, the total hardwood removals are assumed to equal the total hardwood deliveries (obtained from industry surveys and industry associations; see subsequent pages for further information on these sources). Hardwood removals from FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands are then subtracted to give an estimate of the amount of hardwood removed from private sector woodlands.
Softwood removals methodology change The methodology used to estimate the quantity of UK softwood removals from private sector woodland was revised for the release of provisional 2011 estimates in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2011 provisional figures". Details of the change in methodology and its impact on the figures are available in the "Methodology Review of Softwood Removals from Non-FC/FS Woodland" paper, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/about-our-statistics/methodology-and-outputs/.
Revisions Private sector softwood removals are subject to revision annually (see following page, on the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey). Removals from FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodlands are not normally revised. Total hardwood removals (and consequently hardwood removals from private sector woodlands) are subject to annual revisions (see notes on deliveries for further information). Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Figures for 2019 and earlier years have not been revised from those provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Further information Figures are published as UK totals. Country breakdowns (England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland) are also published for softwood in table 2.2 for private sector removals and table 2.3 for FE/FLS/NRW/FS removals. Approximate country breakdowns are also estimated for hardwood removals. Longer time series, presenting estimates of FE/FLS/NRW/FS and private sector removals by country and by softwood/hardwood are available from the www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/data-downloads/ web page.
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.2 Sources: Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey
Introduction The Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey is an annual survey conducted by Forest Research (on behalf of the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Natural Resources Wales and the Northern Ireland Forest Service) of a sample of harvesting companies in the UK. Figures are published as UK totals and by country (England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland).
Data collected The questionnaire used for the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey (available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/aboutour-statistics/surveys/private-sector-softwood-removals-survey/) is issued annually to around 40 harvesting companies, to collect information on:
- the quantity of softwood roundwood harvested from private sector
woodlands in the UK in the current (latest) year and in the previous year;
- the quantity of softwood roundwood harvested from certified private
sector woodlands;
- (from the 2008 survey) the quantity sold to bioenergy (including wood
pellet manufacture);
- (for the 2013 - 2017 surveys) the quantity of softwood roundwood
harvested as required by plant health legislation and
- (from the 2018 survey) the quantity of removals by type of product.
Response rates The questionnaire was issued to 40 harvesting companies for the collection of 2019 data, of which 26 responded, giving a response rate of 65%. These respondents are estimated to account for around 88% of all the softwood harvested by companies covered by the survey.

companies covered by the survey that is accounted for by respondents.
Methodology A review of the methodology used to estimate total private sector softwood removals (including businesses not covered by the survey) was undertaken in 2011-2012. The "Methodology Review of Softwood Removals from Non-FC/FS Woodland" paper presents the results from this review and the implications of the change in methodology. The paper is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/toolsand-resources/statistics/about-our-statistics/methodology-and-outputs/. In the current methodology, businesses not covered by the survey are assumed to represent 15% of the total softwood removals from private sector woodland. This fixed percentage is applied from 2006 onwards. This figure remains under review.
Quality Detailed information on the survey quality is available in the "Quality Report: Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey" at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Further quality information on our Official Statistics is available at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
Revisions Results from the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey may be revised between the provisional figures published in the First Release "UK Wood Production and Trade: provisional figures" and the final data published in "Forestry Facts & Figures" and "Forestry Statistics", to take account of late returns and the results of additional data quality checking procedures. In order to use the most accurate information possible in estimating total private sector softwood removals, figures for non respondents in earlier years are estimated wherever possible, using their responses in previous and in subsequent years. This may cause the estimates for all previous years to be revised when new data are received from a former non-respondent. This process reduces the potential over-inflation of estimated removals which can be caused by harvesting companies tending to respond when removals have increased but being less likely to do so when their removals have reduced. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Figures for 2019 and earlier years have not been revised from those in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.3 Sources: Sawmill Survey
Introduction The Sawmill Survey is an annual survey conducted by Forest Research (on behalf of the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Natural Resources Wales and the Northern Ireland Forest Service) of sawmills in the UK that are believed to use UK-grown logs. The survey comprises a short questionnaire (for smaller mills) and a detailed questionnaire (for larger mills). The detailed survey has changed over the years, both in terms of coverage and periodicity. From 2016, the threshold for inclusion in the detailed sawmill survey has been raised to annual production of at least 25,000 m3 sawnwood. Information on changes prior to 2009 are available in previous editions of Forestry Statistics. Statistics reported for each year are limited to mills that are known to use UK roundwood, but also include any imported logs used by these mills. Tables for softwood are broken down by country (England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland) and by size of mill. Given the low number of sawmills using UK hardwood, tables for hardwood are presented at a total UK level only. The number of active mills (those that produced sawnwood in the reporting year) is presented in tables 2.8 to 2.10. Longer time series, providing data on numbers of mills and on softwood consumption and production are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/toolsand-resources/statistics/data-downloads/. The time series data feature breakdowns by size of mill, by country and by region (in England).
## Data Collected Two Questionnaires Are Used For The Sawmill Survey:
- a detailed questionnaire goes to around 30 mills that have annual
production of at least 25,000 m3 of sawnwood, and
- a short questionnaire is sent to all other mills that are believed to use UK
sawlogs (currently around 125 mills).
As the threshold for inclusion in the detailed survey was changed for the collection of data since 2016, the results presented here for earlier years have been adjusted to this new threshold to provide a consistent time series. Both the detailed and the short questionnaires collect information on:
- the consumption of UK and imported logs, - the production of sawnwood,
- chain of custody certificates and certified timber, - (from the 2006 survey) sales to bioenergy, - (from the 2008 survey) sales as firewood and internal use for
heat/energy,
- (from the 2010 survey) other products, - (from the 2008 survey) total employment and - (for the 2018 survey only) total wood inputs.
In addition, the detailed questionnaire also collects information on:
- the source of UK logs (England, Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland), - sawnwood product markets, - other products by type and destination and - sawmill employment by type.
More information on the Sawmill Survey, including copies of the questionnaires sent to businesses in recent years, can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/surveys/sawmill-survey/.
Response rates Detailed questionnaires were issued to 28 mills for the collection of 2019 data, of which 22 responded, giving a response rate of 79%. For the short questionnaire, 35 responses were received from the 123 forms issued, corresponding to a 28% response rate. This gives an overall response rate of 38%. Overall, the 57 sawmills responding to the sawmill survey in 2019 are estimated to account for around 75% of total UK sawnwood production.

Notes:
1. Response rates are calculated as the number of responses received divided by the number
of forms issued.
2. Weighted response rates are an estimate of the proportion of total UK sawnwood
production that is accounted for by respondents.
Methodology Each year, figures for non respondents are estimated by rolling forward data from previous years for these mills. For larger mills, these estimates may be modified to take account of advice from the Expert Group on Timber & Trade Statistics.
Time series data for the detailed sawmill survey From one year to another, some mills may have moved above or below the threshold for inclusion in the detailed sawmill survey. This may affect the trends over time in tables 2.16a to 2.19a. The total volume of roundwood consumed and sawnwood and other products produced by sawmills covered by the detailed sawmill survey varies over time, so a change in the percentages shown in tables 2.16a to 2.18a does not necessarily reflect a change in volumes. As a result of the change to the threshold for inclusion in the detailed survey since 2016, results for 2015 presented in tables 2.16a to 2.18a have been revised to cover only those mills producing at least 25 thousand m3 sawnwood, for consistency with the data from 2016.
Quality Detailed information on the survey quality is available in the "Quality Report: Sawmill Survey", available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/about-our-statistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-officialstatistics/. Further quality information on our Official Statistics is available at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
Revisions Results from the Sawmill Survey may be revised between the provisional figures published in the First Release "UK Wood Production and Trade: provisional figures" and the final data published in "Forestry Facts & Figures" and "Forestry Statistics" to take account of late returns and the results of additional data quality checking procedures. All the main results (number of mills, consumption, production) are subject to revision annually, as information becomes available about mills opening or closing, or new information becomes available for previous non-respondents. The most common revisions are relatively small downward changes, but this can vary from year to year as special exercises are run to validate the survey population. Information about new mills opening can on occasion cause much larger upward revisions to softwood volumes. Results from the survey of larger mills, which provides more detailed information, may be revised to take account of new information for previous non-respondents. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Figures for 2019 and earlier years have not been revised since "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Further information Figures for UK production of sawn softwood have previously been used alongside data from other sources to assess consumption of sawn softwood in the main end-user markets in the UK. Reports are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/timber-statistics/timber-utilisation-statistics/.
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.4 Sources: Pulp & Paper Introduction Data On The Pulp And Paper Sector Are Obtained From Two Sources:
- The Confederation of Forest Industries (Confor, www.confor.org.uk)
provides figures on inputs to the integrated pulp and paper mills and
- the Confederation of Paper Industries (CPI, www.paper.org.uk) provides
figures on total UK pulp and paper production.
Integrated pulp and paper mills are paper mills that use UK roundwood to produce pulp (an intermediate product in the production of paper). Inputs for other paper mills are not covered in the input statistics reported. The figures for production cover all UK paper mills. Figures are available at a total UK level only.
Data collected The data collected on inputs cover the type of input (roundwood, sawmill products) and the type of wood (softwood, hardwood). Production data covers wood pulp (mechanical or semi-chemical), recovered fibre pulp and paper & paperboard. Paper & paperboard production are available for the following categories: graphic papers, sanitary & household papers, packaging materials and other paper & paperboard. Data are also collected on UK "production" of waste paper, which is the amount recovered from the UK for re-use in the UK or for export. From 2008, total employment at integrated pulp and paper mills is also requested, to complement the data collected on this topic from other primary wood processors. From 2018, data was also requested on wood inputs for energy use.
Methodology The data on inputs to integrated pulp and paper mills are collected by Confor from all such mills in the UK. The number of integrated pulp and paper mills has fallen over recent years and currently stands at 2. The CPI collects production and raw material data from members and nonmembers, which accounts for the majority of UK production. The remainder is estimated by CPI using a variety of sources.
Revisions The statistics on pulp and paper are not normally revised after publication. On occasion, a provisional figure or estimate may be published, and replaced by the actual figure in a subsequent publication. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Figures for 2019 and earlier years have not been revised from those in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.5 Sources: Wood-Based Panels
Introduction Data on the wood-based panel sector are obtained from the Wood Panel Industries Federation (WPIF, www.wpif.org.uk) and cover all wood-based panel mills in the UK. Statistics reported for each year are available at a UK level only.
## Data Collected Data Are Collected On Inputs And On Production.
The data collected on inputs covers the type of input (roundwood, sawmill products, imports, recycled wood fibre) and the type of wood (softwood, hardwood). Production data covers all types of wood-based panels made in the UK, which currently comprises particleboard (including oriented strand board) and fibreboard (medium density fibreboard). UK production of hardboard (another type of fibreboard) ended in the UK in 1999 and production of plywood ended in 2000. From 2008, total employment is also requested, to complement the data being collected on this topic from other primary wood processors. From 2018, data was also requested on wood inputs for energy use.
Methodology The data on wood-based panels are collected by the WPIF, which represents all UK wood panel manufacturers. Figures on wood consumption are collected annually. Production data (excluding waste and rejects) are derived from quarterly returns. Response rates in recent years have been 100%.
Revisions The statistics on wood-based panels are not normally revised after publication. On occasion, a provisional figure or estimate may be published, and replaced by the actual figure in a subsequent publication. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Figures for 2019 and earlier years have not been revised from those in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.6 Sources: Survey Of Round Fencing Manufacturers
Introduction The Survey of Round Fencing Manufacturers is an annual survey conducted by Forest Research (on behalf of the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Natural Resources Wales and the Northern Ireland Forest Service) of round fencing manufacturers (or mills) in the UK that are believed to consume UK- grown roundwood. Figures are published as UK totals and by size of mill. Longer time series, providing data on numbers of mills and on softwood consumption are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/data-downloads/. The time series data feature breakdowns by size of mill and by country.
Data collected The questionnaire used for the Survey of Round Fencing Manufacturers is issued to around 50 mills, to collect information on the consumption of UK- grown and imported roundwood. In 2008, the survey was extended to cover woodfuel quantities (sales to bioenergy, sales as firewood and internal use for heat/ energy) and total employment. In 2010, the survey was further extended to request data on production of round fencing and other products. A breakdown of the country of origin (England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland) for UK-grown roundwood is also requested. A question on total wood inputs was added for the 2018 survey but has since been dropped. More information on the Survey of Round Fencing Manufacturers, including copies of the questionnaires sent to businesses in recent years, can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/surveys/survey-of-round-fencing-manufacturers/.
Response rates The questionnaire was issued to 50 mills for the collection of 2019 data, of which 20 responded, giving a response rate of 40%. These respondents accounted for an estimated 45% of roundwood purchased by softwood round fencing manufacturers.

Notes:
1. Response rates are calculated as the number of responses received divided by the number of forms issued.
2. Weighted response rates are an estimate of the proportion of total roundwood purchased by softwood round fencing manufacturers that is accounted for by respondents.
Methodology Each year, figures for non-respondents are estimated by rolling forward data from previous years for these mills. In 2019, this approach was modified to include a 3% uplift, to reflect the increasing activity in the sector.
Quality Detailed information on the survey quality is provided in the "Quality Report: Survey of Round Fencing Manufacturers", available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Further quality information on our Official Statistics is available at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
Revisions Results from the Survey of Round Fencing Manufacturers may be revised between the provisional figures published in the First Release "UK Wood Production and Trade: provisional figures" and the final data published in "Forestry Facts & Figures" and "Forestry Statistics" to take account of late returns and the results of additional data quality checking procedures. All figures are subject to revision annually, as information becomes available about mills opening or closing, or new information becomes available for previous non-respondents. Such revisions are generally quite small. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Since the publication of provisional figures for 2019, the estimate for UK softwood consumption by round fencing mills has been revised upwards by 5 thousand green tonnes to reflect an improved estimate for non-respondents. Data for earlier years have not been revised Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.7 Sources: Other Deliveries Introduction Data On Other Deliveries Comprise The Following:
- shavings - mainly obtained from shavings manufacturers; - woodfuel - private sector softwood removals survey, woodfuel suppliers
and Expert Group on Timber & Trade Statistics estimates;
- hardwood round fencing - Expert Group on Timber & Trade Statistics
estimates;
- other miscellaneous products - Expert Group on Timber & Trade
Statistics estimates and
- exports of roundwood and chips - companies believed to export
roundwood and/or chips, Forest Service (for exports from Northern Ireland) and HM Revenue and Customs.
Statistics reported for each year are available at a UK level only.
Data collected The data collected on shavings, woodfuel and other miscellaneous products cover the quantity of roundwood only. Data collected on exports includes the following categories; industrial roundwood (excluding sawlogs), sawlogs and chips.
Methodology For shavings, data are collected from the main companies known to produce shavings. In addition, a small estimate is made to cover other shavings manufacturers. There are currently no reliable sources for data on hardwood round fencing and other miscellaneous products. As a result, estimates (that are rarely changed) are made by the Expert Group on Timber & Trade Statistics to attempt to take account of these other uses of UK roundwood. The estimate for hardwood used for woodfuel was revised in 2017 to reflect a perceived increase in woodfuel, but this should not be interpreted as an increase in a single year. A further increase in 2018 reflects a rise that is believed to have occurred during the year. For exports, data are requested from companies believed to have exported roundwood or chips in the last year. Forest Service provides data on behalf of companies exporting from Northern Ireland. If required, a small estimate is made for any non respondents or to cover other companies that may have exported roundwood during the year. Exports of hardwood roundwood are estimated from the overseas trade statistics produced by HM Revenue and Customs.
Revisions Figures for deliveries of softwood for woodfuel may be revised whenever revisions are made to the Private Sector Softwood Removals Survey. The statistics on other deliveries are not normally revised after publication. On occasion, an estimate may be revised in a subsequent publication, to take account of expert advice on perceived changes in the market for roundwood. The quality report on UK Wood Production and Trade provides further information, including details of significant revisions to published statistics and is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/about-our-statistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-officialstatistics/. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Figures for 2019 and earlier years have not been revised from those in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.8 Sources: Comparison Of Removals And Deliveries Of Uk Softwood Roundwood
The table below provides a comparison between the figures for removals (obtained from Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales, Forest Service and Private Sector Removals Survey) and deliveries (obtained from industry surveys and trade associations) of UK softwood roundwood. The estimated total for softwood removals in the UK in 2011 to 2017 has been at least 0.3 million green tonnes higher than the estimate for total UK softwood deliveries. At least some of this difference may indicate a possible undercounting of deliveries, particularly for roundwood that is used directly for woodfuel. More recently, a larger discrepancy of 0.7 million green tonnes in 2018 has been offset by a reversal, with the estimate for softwood deliveries now 0.4 million green tonnes higher than removals in 2019. Taken together, the total discrepancy for 2018 and 2019 equates to total removals around 0.3 million green tonnes higher than deliveries, suggesting that at least some of the recent changes in the difference between removals and deliveries may be related to changes in the level of stocks.

1. The difference between reported removals and deliveries can be caused by variations in the
level of stocks between harvesting and delivery to the wood processor, and/or by the
differences in data sources and methodologies used to compile removals and deliveries statistics.

## 11.2.10 Sources: Woodfuel And Pellets Introduction Data On Woodfuel Have Been Obtained From The Following Sources:
- Sawmill survey and survey of round fencing manufacturers; - Private sector softwood removals survey and woodfuel suppliers; - Expert Group on Timber & Trade Statistics estimates.
Estimates of the quantity of recycled wood used for woodfuel are produced by the Wood Recyclers' Association (www.woodrecyclers.org). Data on UK pellet production and feedstock are obtained from the survey of UK pellet and briquette production. For details on roundwood deliveries for woodfuel, see the Sources: other deliveries page. Figures are published as UK totals.
Data collected The sawmill survey and survey of round fencing manufacturers included questions asking for the quantity of woodfuel:
- sold to bioenergy, - sold as firewood and - used internally for heat/energy.
The survey of UK pellet and briquette production was run for the first time for the collection of 2009 data. The questionnaire asks for data on the total quantity of pellets and briquettes produced, the source of fibres used, the origin of wood used and product markets. More information on the survey of UK pellet and briquette production, including copies of the questionnaires sent to businesses in recent years, can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/surveys/survey-of-uk-pellet-amp-briquette-production/.
Response rates Response rates for the sawmill survey and survey of round fencing manufacturers are available on the relevant sources pages. The 2019 survey of UK pellet and briquette production was sent to a total of 14 companies that were believed to manufacture pellets or briquettes. A total of 5 responded, giving a response rate of 36%. The respondents to the survey are estimated to account for around 89% of the total production of pellets and briquettes in the UK in 2019. Whilst the low response rates to this survey are of some concern, it is believed that many of the non-respondents are not (currently) producing pellets or briquettes. This is reflected in the much higher weighted response rates and the figures produced are believed to give a reasonable estimate of the true level of UK pellet production.

production that is accounted for by respondents.
## Methodology Details Of The Methodology Used For The Sawmill Survey And Survey Of Round Fencing Manufacturers Are Available On The Relevant Sources Pages.
For the survey of UK pellet and briquette production, estimates were made for non-respondents using results from previous surveys and expert advice.
Quality Detailed information on the pellet survey quality is available in the "Quality Report: Survey of UK Pellet & Briquette Production", available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Further quality information on our Official Statistics is available at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
Revisions All figures are subject to revision annually, as new information becomes available. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Figures for 2019 and earlier years have not been revised from those provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures".
Further information Figures for Woodfuel Demand and Usage in Scotland, covering actual and potential use of woodfuel in the commercial, industrial and electrical energy sectors, are produced annually by Scottish Forestry and available at https://forestry.gov.scot/forests-environment/climate-change/woodfuel-andbio-energy. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (previously the Department of Energy and Climate Change) publishes an annual Digest of UK Energy Statistics (www.gov.uk/government/collections/digest-of-uk-energystatistics-dukes). Chapter 7 of this digest covers renewable sources of energy including wood. Figures for wood use in renewable energy statistics take into account wood from all sources (including processed wood, recycled wood and imports), not just UK-grown roundwood.
Release schedule Provisional figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.2.11 Sources: Conversion Factors Conversion Factors Between Cubic Metres And Green Tonnes
The following factors have been used in Chapter 2 (Timber) to convert between cubic metres (m3) and green tonnes:
The diagram shows separate conversion factors to use when converting softwood (SW) and hardwood (HW) with arrows to indicate the direction of conversion. For example, to convert 1,000 green tonnes of SW into an under bark volume, the 1,000 green tonnes should be multiplied by the conversion factor of 0.982 to give 982m3 underbark. There is no difference between the softwood and hardwood conversion factors for converting between standing volume and overbark volumes.
The following factors have been used in Chapter 3 (Trade) to convert between cubic metres (m3) and metric tonnes: In this case, all the factors are expressed as volumes (in m3) per weight (in tonnes). Therefore, to convert 1,000 tonnes of sawn softwood into a volume, the 1,000 tonnes should be multiplied by 1.82 to give 1,820 m3.

## 11.3 Sources: Trade
Introduction Statistics on imports and exports are based on the published overseas trade statistics for intra-EU trade and extra-EU trade produced by HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) and available at www.uktradeinfo.com. Data on apparent consumption is derived as UK production plus imports less exports.
Data Sources and Methodology The data obtained from HMRC cover quantities (weights and volumes) and values of wood and wood products imported to and exported from the UK. Data are compiled for the following products:
- roundwood - woodfuel, industrial roundwood; - wood charcoal; - wood pellets; - wood chips, particles and residues; - sawnwood; - wood-based panels - veneer sheets, plywood, particleboard, fibreboard; - pulp - wood pulp, other pulp; - recovered paper; - recovered wood; - paper & paperboard - graphic papers (including newsprint), sanitary &
household papers, packaging materials, other paper & paperboard.
For roundwood, sawnwood and wood-based panels, a softwood/hardwood breakdown is available. The HMRC data are also available by country of origin (for imports) and destination country (for exports). For consistency with timber deliveries data, softwood roundwood and wood chip exports figures are replaced by those compiled from companies believed to export roundwood and/or chips. For Northern Ireland, figures are provided by the Forest Service. Where the HMRC reporting units for quantity differ from those shown in this publication, figures are adjusted using standard FAO/ECE conversion factors, which are listed in the Timber section of the Sources chapter. The figures may also be adjusted where an apparent inconsistency in the UK trade figures cannot be resolved before the international return is required. Historically, HMRC wood trade figures have often necessitated adjustments, following liaison with practitioners in the trade (including the Expert Group on Timber and Trade Statistics, Wood Panel Industries Federation (www.wpif.org.uk) and Confederation of Paper Industries (www.paper.org.uk)). This is partly because detailed intra-EU wood trade data is obtained through a survey of businesses that trade above a particular value threshold. Businesses that trade below this threshold are only required to report the total value of their imports and exports. Therefore the trade data reported in this publication for individual products is based on a potentially biased survey. More information on HMRC statistics can be found at www.uktradeinfo.com/Statistics/Pages/Statistics.aspx. The "Methodology note: UK wood imports and exports" sets out the data analysis methods used to produce annual estimates of UK wood imports and exports and is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/about-our-statistics/methodology-and-outputs/.
Quality Detailed information on the quality of the trade statistics presented in this publication is provided in the "Quality Report: UK Wood Production and Trade", available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/aboutour-statistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Further quality information on our Official Statistics is available at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
Revisions Statistics on imports and exports are subject to revision after publication if revisions are made to the overseas trade statistics produced by HMRC. Figures may also be refined to take account of expert advice from the Expert Group on Timber & Trade Statistics and trade associations on the trade in specific products. Figures for 2019 are final; provisional figures were previously released in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Since the release of 2019 provisional figures, the following revisions have been made:
- Import quantities - an upward revision to pulp in 2018 (1%). - Export quantities - revisions to woodbased panels in 2019 (down 2%)
and to pulp in 2018 (down 3%) and 2019 (up 1%).
- Import values - revisions to woodbased panels in 2019 (up 2%) and to
sawnwood in 2019 (down less than 0.5%).
- Export values - a downwards revision to sawnwood in 2019 (2%) and an
upwards revision to woodbased panels in 2019 (1%).
Other revisions to 2018 and 2019 data resulted in changes of no more than 0.5% magnitude. Information on revisions made since "Forestry Statistics 2019" are provided in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2019 provisional figures". Information on significant revisions to published statistics is provided in the "Quality Report: UK Wood Production and Trade" at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors to these statistics are dealt with, and can be found at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.
Further information Most of these statistics are used to compile data that are sent to international organisations in the Joint Forest Sector Questionnaires, in some cases giving more detail than in this release. These returns are published as Official Statistics on the Forest Research website; provisional figures in May and final figures in September/ October. The statistics are used by Eurostat Forestry Statistics, UNECE Timber Bulletins, and UN/FAO Forest Product Statistics and are published on the FAOSTAT database www.fao.org/faostat/en/#home).
A summary of the international statistics available from the FAOSTAT website are presented in the chapter on International Forestry. For more information, please refer to the International Forestry section of the Sources chapter. The definitions used in this publication are consistent with the international definitions, as given in the Joint Forest Sector Questionnaire definitions, available at www.fao.org/forestry/statistics/80572/en/. The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Committee on Forests and the Forest Industry also collects, on an annual basis, estimates for the current year and projections for the following year of wood production, imports and exports. Results are available on the UNECE website (www.unece.org/forests/fpm/timbercommittee.html). Copies of UK returns for the UNECE Timber Forecast Questionnaire are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/international-returns/unece-timber-forecast-questionnaire/. Figures for UK imports and exports of sawn softwood have previously been used alongside data from other sources to assess consumption of sawn softwood in the main end-user markets in the UK. Reports are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/timber-statistics/timber-utilisation-statistics/.
Release schedule Provisional trade figures for 2020 will be released on 16 May 2021 in "UK Wood Production and Trade: 2020 provisional figures". Final trade figures for 2020 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".
## 11.4 Sources: Carbon
Introduction Forests can help mitigate climate change by reducing the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. They do this by absorbing carbon dioxide, using the carbon to produce sugars for tree growth and releasing the oxygen back into the air. As trees grow, they store carbon in their leaves, twigs and trunk, and in the soil around them. Globally, deforestation caused by the unsustainable harvesting of timber and the conversion of forests to other land uses accounts for almost 20 per cent of global carbon dioxide emissions. The amount of carbon stored can be increased by actions to reduce the amount of deforestation and to convert non-forested areas to forest. Forests can be managed as a sustainable source of wood - an alternative energy source to fossil fuels, and a low-energy construction material. Woodlands can also help society adapt to a changing climate, by reducing the risk of flooding, providing shade for wildlife, reducing soil erosion and helping to cool down towns and cities.
## Data Sources And Methodology
Forest carbon stock Table 4.1a is adapted from Table 2d in the final UK report submitted in January 2019 to FAO for the Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) 2020 (www.fao.org/forest-resources-assessment/en/). Table 4.1b has been compiled using the same approach produce estimates by country within the UK. Units: These tables are shown in million tonnes carbon dioxide equivalent
(MtCO2e) rather than million tonnes carbon (MtC). To convert from CO2e to C
multiply by 12/44. Timescales: Carbon stock is estimated for 1990, 2000, 2010, 2015 and 2020. Living biomass: Carbon in living biomass is based on data from "NFI report: Carbon in live woodland trees in Britain" (Forestry Commission, May 2014), uprated from GB to UK estimates based on estimated volumes of growing stock. A "root to shoot ratio" (below ground biomass = 0.36 x above ground biomass) is used to estimate the breakdown between above- and belowground biomass (Levy et al, 2004). Updated estimates of growing stock over time (making use of data from the National Forest Inventory) have been used. Deadwood: Estimates of deadwood volume per hectare are taken from National Forest Inventory estimates. These are rated up by woodland area estimates for FRA 2020, assuming a density of 0.45 ODT/m3, and an average carbon content of 50% is applied. Litter: Estimates of the carbon content of the litter layer are available from Morison et al (2012). These are rated up by woodland area estimates for FRA 2020 to provide a consistent time series. Soil carbon: Estimates of the carbon content of soil 0-100 cm for England, Wales and Scotland are available from Morison et al (2012). An estimate of the carbon content of soil for Northern Ireland is taken from Bradley et al (2005) and rated downward to reflect the generally lower carbon content found in Morison et al (2012). The soil carbon estimates are then rated up by woodland area estimates for FRA 2020 to provide a consistent time series. This soil estimate does not take account of soil carbon accumulation. It also assumes that the soil carbon content of afforested (and previously unwooded) land has the same soil carbon content as woodland soils, whereas in practice this may vary. Comparison with other data sources: Figures in this updated table are broadly similar to the estimates made in Morison et al (2012). Future updates: This table will be updated once further information is available from the National Forest Inventory.
Woodland Carbon Code The Woodland Carbon Code is a voluntary standard, initiated in July 2011, for woodland creation projects that make claims about the carbon they sequester (take out of the atmosphere). All projects must be placed on the UK Woodland Carbon Registry. Their claims about potential carbon sequestration are validated by an independent certification body. Validated projects are then verified on a regular basis to confirm the progress of carbon sequestration. Information about Woodland Carbon Code projects comes from the UK Woodland Carbon Registry, housed on the Markit Environmental Registry (www.markit.com/product/registry). The register is a live database and summary data are extracted annually. Further information on the Woodland Carbon Code is available at: www.woodlandcarboncode.org.uk/.
Public opinion on climate change Public Opinion of Forestry Surveys have been run every 2 years by Forest Research (on behalf of the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Welsh Government/ Natural Resources Wales and Northern Ireland Forest Service). The surveys cover public attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues. The surveys included up to 2 questions on climate change: one asking about ways in which forests and woodlands can impact on climate change and one asking about how UK forests should be managed in response to the threat of climate change (Table 4.3). Further information on the surveys is available in the Sources: Public Opinion of Forestry page.

## 11.5 Sources: Environment Introduction
The statistics presented in the Environment chapter of this release cover:
- populations of wild birds; - public opinion on tree health; - woodland types and habitats.
## Data Sources And Methodology
Populations of wild birds Population indices for wild birds are a framework indicator for sustainable development. The data published here are based on those published in the Wild bird populations in the UK, 1970-2018 statistical release (Defra, November 2019), rescaled here to give year 2000 = 100 instead of year 1970 = 100. The index for woodland specialists was recalculated in 2007 to include 4 additional species; this affected the indices for total woodland birds and (to a lesser extent) all birds. A further change in 2015 resulted in the removal of one woodland specialist species from the index.
Public opinion on tree health Public Opinion of Forestry Surveys have been run every 2 years by Forest Research (on behalf of the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Welsh Government/ Natural Resources Wales and Northern Ireland Forest Service). The surveys cover public attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues. A question asking about tree health was included for the first time in the 2013 surveys (Figure 5.2). Further information on the surveys is available in the Sources: Public Opinion of Forestry page.
Woodland types and habitats Data on woodland types and habitats comes from National Forest Inventory (NFI) report on Woodland Ecological Condition Statistics, released in February 2020. The accompanying report on NFI Woodland Ecological Condition Scoring Methodology provides more detailed information on definitions and methodology.

## 11.6 Sources: Public Opinion Of Forestry Introduction
Forest Research (on behalf of the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Welsh Government/ Natural Resources Wales and Northern Ireland Forest Service). has conducted similar surveys of public attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues every two years since 1995. Three separate surveys were undertaken in 2019; in Northern Ireland, in Wales and across the UK as a whole. A survey for Scotland was most recently carried out in 2017. Some questions were asked in all of the surveys conducted in 2017/2019 and in the surveys undertaken in earlier years, but an increasing number are survey specific. Questions are asked on a variety of topics including, public awareness of forestry, woodland-based recreation and community involvement, woodfuel and the relationship between forestry and climate change. Tree health was introduced in the 2013/2014 surveys and continued in more recent surveys. Questions on urban trees were introduced in 2017 surveys.
## Data Sources And Methodology
The survey results were obtained by placing questions in omnibus surveys run by private market research companies. The four surveys undertaken in 2019 (and 2017) achieved representative samples of:
-
2,174 adults across the UK;
-
1,013 adults across Scotland (in 2017);
-
1,001 adults across Wales;
-
1,000 adults across Northern Ireland.
All of the surveys use quota sampling to ensure that the sample selected is representative of the population, and results are weighted to produce estimates for the population as a whole. Further information on the methodologies used for each survey are provided in the individual survey reports, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/toolsand-resources/statistics/statistics-by-topic/public-opinion-of-forestry/.
## Quality
All results are subject to the effects of chance in sampling, so a range of uncertainty (confidence interval) is associated with results from the surveys. The confidence intervals take into account the effect of clustering, weighting and stratification in the survey designs. For questions asked to the whole UK sample in 2019 of 2,174, the range of uncertainty around any result should be no more than ± 3.2%, while for questions asked to around 1,000 respondents, the corresponding range of uncertainty should be no more than ± 4.6%.
## Revisions
Results from the Public Opinion of Forestry (POF) Surveys were previously released in the separate POF reports for each country. The statistics are not normally revised. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors are dealt with and can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.
## Further Information
Latest reports for UK and England (using a subset of the UK data set) and for Wales were published on 27 June 2019, along with the full sets of data tables. The latest report for Northern Ireland was published on 28 March 2019, along with the full set of data tables. The latest report for Scotland was published on 13 July 2017, along with the full set of data tables. Reports and data tables (including results for previous surveys) are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/public-opinion-of-forestry/.
## Release Schedule
The next Public Opinion of Forestry surveys are expected to run in early 2021, with results available in summer 2021.
## 11.7 Sources: Social Introduction There Are Two Main Approaches To Visitor Monitoring:
- General population surveys of individuals at their home. This approach is
employed for Scotland's People and Nature Survey, the National Survey for Wales, the Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment (England) and the Public Opinion of Forestry surveys. (Tables 6.1 to 6.5).
- Surveying and counting of visitors to a specific area or woodland. On-site
surveying has been employed for the All Forests surveys. In addition, the Northern Ireland Forest Service keep records of visitors who pay an admission charge to their sites. (Table 6.6).
There are advantages and disadvantages to each approach, related to factors such as representativeness, feasibility and cost; each approach provides different types of information. In general, on-site studies provide information on visitor interaction with local or specific woodland areas and include all categories of visitors to a site, regardless of their country of residence and interests. In contrast, general population studies are limited to residents of a certain country or area, are often carried out by market research companies at a national level, and include people who do not visit woodlands.
## Data Sources And Methodology
Household surveys The information shown in Table 6.1 has been obtained from the following general population household surveys.
- Scottish Recreation Survey (to 2012) - Welsh Outdoor Recreation Survey (2011, 2014) - Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment (England 2009/10
onwards)
- Scotland's People and Nature Survey (2013 and 2017/18)
The Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment has also been used to provide information on visitor characteristics in table 6.2. For further information on this survey, see www.gov.uk/government/collections/monitorof-engagement-with-the-natural-environment-survey-purpose-and-results. Scotland's People and Nature Survey has replaced the Scottish Recreation Survey. Further information on both surveys are available at www.nature.scot/. The National Survey for Wales has replaced the Welsh Outdoor Recreation Survey and provides statistics on visitor characteristics (Table 6.3). Further information on the National Survey is available at: https://gov.wales/nationalsurvey-wales. Public Opinion of Forestry Surveys have been run, usually every 2 years, by Forest Research on behalf of the Forestry Commission, Scottish Forestry, Welsh Government/ Natural Resources Wales and the Northern Ireland Forest Service. The surveys cover public attitudes to forestry and forestry-related issues, including visits to woodland (Tables 6.4 to 6.5 and Figure 6.1). Further information is available on the previous page.
On-site surveys All Forests Surveys were run at a sample of Forestry and Land Scotland sites in Scotland from 2004 to 2007 and in 2012-13, to provide estimates of the numbers of visits to the National Forest Estate in Scotland. An All Forests Survey was also run in Wales in 2004. More recent estimates of the number of visitors to the National Forest Estate in Scotland has been produced by Forestry and Land Scotland, updating the All Forests Survey estimates using automatic counters and, for sites without counters, using the results from the 2012-13 All Forests Survey and advice from local managers. Estimates for numbers of visits to the Public Forest Estate in England are provided in the Forestry England Natural Capital Accounts, available at www.forestryengland.uk/article/natural-capital-accounts. Statistics on the day visitors to Forest Service sites in Northern Ireland where an admission charge is made is provided by the Forest Service. Further information on the Forest Service is available at https://www.daerani.gov.uk/topics/forestry.
Quality It is notable from Table 6.1 that different surveys have provided some quite different estimates of the aggregate number of visits to woodlands. It is likely that differences in survey design and methodology have contributed to a considerable proportion of the differences in results between these surveys. As the scope of the surveys has evolved over time, the figures in Table 6.1 should not be interpreted as time trends but instead as separate results from each survey. In common with all sample based surveys, the results from each survey are subject to the effects of chance, depending on the particular survey method used and the sample achieved, thus confidence limits apply to all results from these surveys. Technical reports, providing further information on household surveys run or commissioned by other organisations, are available from relevant websites (see above).
Revisions Most of the statistics in the Social chapter have been previously released in other publications, usually by other organisations. The latest year figures for day visitors to Forest Service sites in Northern Ireland are published for the first time in this release. Figures for earlier years have not been revised from those published in Forestry Statistics 2019. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors are dealt with and can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.

## 11.8 Sources: Employment And Businesses Introduction Data Sources And Methodology Statistics On Employment Are Obtained From:
- the Annual Business Survey (www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/abs/annualbusiness-survey/index.html), (Office for National Statistics (www.ons.gov.uk)), an annual survey of UK businesses;
- Industry surveys (Sawmill Survey, Survey of Round Fencing
Manufacturers) and industry associations (Confor (www.confor.org.uk/), Wood Panel Industries Federation (www.wpif.org.uk)) - for employment in primary wood processing; and
- Confederation of Paper Industries (https://www.paper.org.uk/)
Statistics for accidents to employees are obtained from Health & Safety Executive statistics for Great Britain, available at www.hse.gov.uk/statistics. Numbers of businesses are estimated from:
- Industry surveys (Sawmill Survey, Survey of Round Fencing
Manufacturers) and industry associations (Confor, Wood Panel Industries Federation) - for businesses believed to be using UK-grown roundwood, and
- UK Business: Activity, Size and Location (Office for National Statistics) -
for VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses (www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/bus-register/uk-business/index.html).
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)
The Annual Business Survey, statistics on health and safety and statistics on VAT and/or PAYE registrations classify businesses by UK Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code. Detailed information on the SIC is available at: https://www.ons.gov.uk/methodology/classificationsandstandards/ukstandardi ndustrialclassificationofeconomicactivities/uksic2007. Businesses are classified to SIC codes according to their main activity. The SIC codes are revised periodically to take account of changes in the global economy. The following codes from SIC 2003 and SIC 2007 have been used in this edition of Forestry Statistics:

In addition, figure 7.1, covering accidents to employees, also uses the following SIC 2003/2007 codes:
- Agriculture etc: 01/01 (agriculture, hunting) + 02/02 (forestry, logging &
related services) + 05/03 (fishing, exc sea fishing);
- Manufacturing: 15-37/10-33 (all categories of manufacturing).
Quality The forestry and wood processing businesses covered by the Annual Business Survey (Table 7.1), accidents to employees (Table 7.3) and VAT and/or PAYE registered businesses (Table 7.5) differ from those covered by the timber industry surveys and enquiries (Chapter 2, Tables 7.2a, Table 7.2b and 7.4), as follows:
- Businesses below VAT and PAYE thresholds are excluded from the SIC-
based statistics;
- businesses whose main activity is not forestry or wood processing will be
allocated to other SIC codes and therefore excluded from the relevant tables on the Annual Business Survey, accidents and VAT and/or PAYE businesses;
- businesses that do not use UK-grown roundwood are excluded from
Forest Research's timber industry surveys and enquiries;
- businesses involved in secondary wood processing are excluded from
Forest Research's timber industry surveys and enquiries.
Reporting requirements for accidents have changed, with absences of at least 3 days to be reported until March 2012 and absences of at least 7 days to be reported from April 2012. As a result, accident data from 2012-13 are not fully consistent with figures for earlier years.
Revisions Statistics on employment and businesses obtained from others are subject to revision whenever the source data are revised. Statistics from timber industry surveys and enquiries are subject to revision whenever the timber statistics are revised (see relevant pages within the Sources chapter for further information on revisions to industry surveys and enquiries). The revisions made to the sawmill survey and the survey of round fencing manufacturers have resulted in:
- Table 7.2a: reductions to employment in sawmills in 2015 to 2018 by up
to 2% and in fencing mills by up to 5%.
- Table 7.4: a reduction in the number of sawmills, by 1 in 2016, 2017 and
by 2 in 2018.
Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors to these statistics are dealt with, and can be found at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.

## 11.9 Sources: Finance & Prices Introduction The Statistics Presented In The Finance And Prices Chapter Of This Release Cover:
- timber prices; - gross value added (GVA); - government expenditure on forestry; and - grant schemes.
## Data Sources And Methodology
Timber Price Indices: Data sources The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index and the Softwood Sawlog Price Index are both based on sales of softwood (conifers) by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, and Natural Resources Wales; they do not include any private sector data. They only cover roundwood from woodland; they do not cover sawmill products or other end products. The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index (CSSPI) is based on administrative data for standing sales of conifers (softwood) by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales. Around 60% of Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales softwood is sold standing, with the purchaser responsible for harvesting. The standing sales cover a full range of sizes, as they include thinning and removal of trees for environmental reasons, as well as harvesting of mature trees. The data used to compile the index covers volumes sold and values by average tree size. The Softwood Sawlog Price Index (SSPI) is based on administrative data for sales of softwood sawlogs by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales. The data used to compile the index covers volumes and values. Direct production by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales (where the softwood is sold after harvesting) also covers a range of sizes, but the price statistics reported are limited to sales of logs (over 14 cm diameter). Both the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index and the Softwood Sawlog Price Index include sales by long term contract, where the volume of roundwood covered by the contract is sold over a period of more than one year. To take account of changes in price over the term of the contract, price adjustments are made periodically, as part of the contract. The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index and Softwood Sawlog Price Index include roundwood sales by long term contract but, at present, price adjustments are not included in the indices. The data for both the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index and the Softwood Sawlog Price Index are obtained from:
1. Forestry England's and Forestry and Land Scotland's Sales Recording
Package (SRP). SRP was also used by Natural Resources Wales until February 2017.
2. The timber sales system used by Natural Resources Wales from April
2017 (there were no sales by NRW in March 2017). As standing sales by size category are not yet available from this system, no figures for Natural Resources Wales from April 2017 have been included in the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index.
Methodology for Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index (CSSPI) is an index of the average prices per cubic metre overbark standing achieved for standing sales of conifers by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales. It covers all conifer standing sales (open market and negotiated) by Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales over the twelve month period. All thinning and clearfell data is combined within the index. It includes all species, tree sizes, working practices and conditions. It does not include any private sector data. The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index (CSSPI) is calculated using a Fisher index with 5-yearly chain linking. By using a Fisher index to produce the index, distortions in the average price caused by variations in the average tree size over time are corrected. Applying chain linking at regular intervals (in this case, every 5 years) ensures that the index remains relevant over time. Other factors that may affect price (e.g. working conditions, timber quality or species) are not taken into account when constructing the index. The methodology used to calculate the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index was reviewed in 2008, with the Fisher index with 5-yearly chain linking introduced from the November 2008 publication of "Timber Price Indices". Further information on the methodology used to calculate the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index is provided in the paper "Methodology for the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index", available from the Statistical Methodology and Outputs page of the Forest Research website at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/methodology-and-outputs/. The average prices and the index are expressed in nominal terms (i.e. the actual prices at the time of sale) and in real terms (i.e. the prices converted to 2016). The GDP (Gross Domestic Product at market prices) deflator, produced by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), is applied to the nominal figures to derive real average prices and the index in real terms. The GDP deflator data can be downloaded from the ONS Quarterly National Accounts dataset at www.ons.gov.uk/economy/grossdomesticproductgdp/timeseries/ybgb.
Methodology for Softwood Sawlog Price Index The Softwood Sawlog Price Index is calculated from data covering separate 6- month periods to September and March. This means that the changes reported are not covering the same periods as the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index. The index measures the average price per cubic metre overbark of sawlog sales, with no adjustment for any change in size mix, as it covers a more limited range of sizes than the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index. The index was revised in May 2017 to correct a number of inconsistencies in the underlying data. This revised index, covering open market sales only and all lengths of log, was then extended in November 2017 to include sales by negotiation. The index is expressed in nominal terms (i.e. based on the actual prices at the time of sale) and in real terms (i.e. based on the prices converted to 2016 prices, by removing the effects of general inflation). As for the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index, the GDP (Gross Domestic Product at market prices) deflator is used to convert from nominal to real terms. For consistency with the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index, the Softwood Sawlog Price Index is rebased every 5 years; in this release, the period to September 2016 = 100.
Gross Value Added Gross value added (GVA) measures the contribution to the economy of each individual producer, industry or sector in the United Kingdom. Statistics on gross value added are obtained from the Annual Business Survey, formerly the Annual Business Inquiry, (Office for National Statistics), an annual survey of UK businesses. Further information on the Annual Business Survey is available at www.ons.gov.uk/surveys/informationforbusinesses/businesssurveys/annualbus inesssurvey The Annual Business Survey uses the UK Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) to classify businesses to industries according to their main activity. Detailed information on the SIC is available at https://www.ons.gov.uk/methodology/classificationsandstandards/ukstandardi ndustrialclassificationofeconomicactivities/uksic2007. For further information on the SIC codes used in this release, see section on Employment and businesses within the Sources chapter.
Government expenditure Information about government expenditure on forestry is obtained from administrative records held by the Forestry Commission, Forestry England, Scottish Forestry, and Forestry and Land Scotland. Expenditure by the Welsh Government, Natural Resources Wales, Defra and other government departments/ Devolved Administrations is currently excluded. More detailed financial data are published annually in each organisation's Annual Report & Accounts. Data on grant expenditure are obtained from administrative records for woodland grant schemes across GB.
Quality The Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index and the Softwood Sawlog Price Index are the only official statistics published for roundwood prices in the UK. So, although they are limited to sales by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, and Natural Resources Wales, they are sometimes used as indicators of price trends for other UK softwood. In recent years, softwood has accounted for more than 90% of all timber harvested in Great Britain, and Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales has accounted for around 40% to 50% of all softwood sold. For the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index, data cover a 12 month period (i.e. data for the year to March and data for the year to September). As these periods overlap, comparisons of values should be made with the same period a year earlier. Unlike the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index, the Softwood Sawlog Price Index covers 6 month periods (i.e. data for the period October to March and data for the period April to September), so there is no overlapping. Detailed information on the quality of the statistics presented in this publication is available in the "Quality Report: Timber Price Indices", available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
Revisions Most of the statistics presented in the Finance & Prices chapter have been previously released. The latest year figures for Government expenditure on forestry are published in this format for the first time in this release. Timber price indices are unchanged from the figures provided in "Timber Price Indices: data to March 2020". For details of revisions made since Forestry Statistics 2019 see the First Release, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/timber-statistics/timber-price-indices/. Data on Gross Value Added (GVA) are subject to revision whenever Annual Business Survey data are revised by the Office for National Statistics. Figures for 2017 have been revised from those shown in "Forestry Statistics 2019" to reflect revisions made to ABS results by ONS. Data on Government expenditure are not normally revised but may be subject to revision if revisions are made to the financial accounts of the Forestry Commission, Forestry England, Scottish Forestry or Forestry and Land Scotland. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors are dealt with and can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.
Further information Tables providing longer time series of the Coniferous Standing Sales Price Index and the underlying data used to produce it, are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/timber-statistics/timber-price-indices/.
Release schedule For information on the release schedules of statistics produced by others, see relevant websites (above). Timber Price Indices are published every six months, in May for data to end March and in November for data to end September. The next editions will be released on the following dates: "Timber Price Indices: Data to September 2020" will be released on 19 November 2020; "Timber Price Indices: Data to March 2021" will be released on 16 May 2021. "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021" will be released on 30 September 2021.
## 11.10 Sources: International Forestry
Introduction The statistics presented in the International Forestry chapter of this release cover:
- woodland area; - carbon stocks; - wood removals; - production and apparent consumption of wood products; and - trade in forest products.
Data sources and methodology International data on forest area and carbon stocks are obtained from the Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) 2020 (www.fao.org/forestresources-assessment/en/), compiled by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO). The information in Table 9.1 uses forest area from FRA 2020, excluding "other wooded land"; for the UK, this is very similar to the definition of "woodland" used in other tables. International data on production, imports and exports are obtained from the FAO. Data are collected via the Joint Forest Sector Questionnaire for FAO and other international organisations and published on the FAOSTAT database (http://www.fao.org/faostat/en/#home). Data on apparent consumption is derived as production plus imports less exports. Data for the European Union (EU) presented in this edition of Forestry Statistics relate to the countries that were EU members at September 2020 so, unlike in previous editions, the UK is now excluded from the EU figures for all years.
Quality The UK data on forest area and carbon stocks are as submitted by the Forestry Commission to FAO in early 2019. More recent estimates of UK woodland area are provided in the Chapter on Woodland Area and Planting. A copy of the full UK return for the 2020 Forest Resources Assessment is available at www.fao.org/forest-resources-assessment/en/. The UK data on production, imports and exports are as submitted by the Forest Research to the UN Economic Commission for Europe in May 2020. More recent UK estimates are provided in the Chapters on UK-grown Timber and Trade. Copies of all UK returns for the Joint Forest Sector Questionnaire are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/statistics-by-topic/international-returns/joint-forest-sectorquestionnaire/.
Revisions International statistics compiled from FRA are subject to revision every five years, when a new collection is undertaken. Revisions to historical data have been made following the release of the Global Forest Resources Assessment 2020. This has resulted in:
- Increases in forest area reported for 1990, 2000, 2010 and 2015 of up to
3% globally (mainly in Africa, Asia and South America); and
- Increases in the carbon stock in forests of up to 3% globally (for 1990,
2000 and 2010) and 18% for 2015.
International statistics compiled from FAOSTAT may be subject to revision after publication if revisions are made to the data produced by individual countries. Revisions to historical data have been made in the FAOSTAT database since the publication of "Forestry Statistics 2019" (Tables 9.4 to 9.6). At a global level, such revisions have been relatively minor (no more than 1% difference). Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors to these statistics are dealt with, and can be found at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4355/FCrevisions.pdf.
Further information Statistics on international forestry are reported here at a regional level. Further data (including figures for individual countries) are also available from the original sources (see above). Statistics on forest resources are also collected every 4-5 years at a European level by Forest Europe. The State of Europe's Forests 2015 was released in October 2015 and is available at www.foresteurope.org/. The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Committee on Forests and the Forest Industry also collects, on an annual basis, estimates for the current year and projections for the following year of wood production, imports and exports. Results are available on the UNECE website (www.unece.org/forests/fpm/timbercommittee.html). Copies of UK returns for the UNECE Timber Forecast Questionnaire are available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/international-returns/unece-timber-forecast-questionnaire/.
Release schedule For information on the release schedules of statistics produced by others, see relevant websites (above). International data on wood production and trade in 2019 will be released on 30 September 2021 in "Forestry Statistics 2021" and "Forestry Facts & Figures 2021".

Your challenge is to find out how Henry VIII's orders affected your local area. To do this you will need to use the internet, explore some books, find some documents or even visit a site near to you. You might not be able to find out a lot of information about your specific site, but don't worry, you can explore what life was like generally for people who lived or worked in monasteries and religious houses as well. Below is a list of information you might want to look for:
■
■
Where is the nearest monastery to your school?
■
■
What order was the religion that it followed?
■
■
How many people lived or worked there?
■
■
What types of activities did they do?
■
■
Was it a site of pilgrimage? If so, why?
■

## Where To Look: Notes
If your site is still standing, it may have a website with some information about its history. This could be a good place to start. Search for the name of the monastic house as provided in our online map and see if there are any websites devoted to it and its history. These can be for the general public or for academic researchers so don't be scared if they look like a lot of writing! You can use Wikipedia - but be aware that this can be written by anyone and the information you find may not be true.
## Other Resources Include:
British History Online - https://www.british-history.ac.uk/ Historic England - https://www.pastscape.org.uk/ Local Archives - your local archive may have maps or other local historic information that may be relevant - https://discovery. nationalarchives.gov.uk/find-an-archive Your school may have reference books and textbooks that include the Tudors and the Dissolution of the Monasteries.
## Your Site May Now Be Looked After By:
English Heritage - https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/ The National Trust - https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/ Or a private trust - try searching its name to discover if it has its own website. It may also now be a Church of England site, many of these have their own website which may include a page on its history.

Fersiwn y Ddogfen
Dyddiad Cyhoeddi
1.0
Mis Ebrill

1.1
Mis Hydref 2017
Eglurhad o 'Ddigwyddiadau' ynghyd a nifer o newidiadau a eglurebau bychan.
Dyddiad Adolygu: Mis Ebrill 2018
Beth sydd yn y ddogfen hon?
Mae'r ddogfen hon yn esbonio: ein swyddogaeth effeithiau a sut yr ydym yn categoreiddio digwyddiadau Dylid cyfeirio at ein Cynllun ar gyfer Galluogi Rheoli Digwyddiadau ar gyfer ein gweithgareddau rheoli digwyddiadau pellach.
Ein nod cyffredinol yw sicrhau bod amgylchedd ac adnoddau naturiol Cymru'n cael eu cynnal, eu gwella, a'u defnyddio'n gynaliadwy, ar hyn o bryd ac yn y dyfodol. Rheoli digwyddiadau yw un o'n swyddogaethau craidd pwysicaf, ac rydym yn ei gynnal ar sail 24 awr, 365 diwrnod. Digwyddiad yw rhywbeth sy'n digwydd o fewn ein swyddogaethau a'n cyfrifoldebau statudol a allai: Gael effaith bosibl neu wirioneddol ar yr amgylchedd, neu effaith weithredol Ei gwneud yn ofynnol inni ymateb iddi. Y cwestiwn allweddol yw a fyddwn yn: Ymateb ar unwaith (Digwyddiadau Effaith Lefel Uchel), yn ystod a'r tu allan i oriau
swyddfa arferol, neu;
Ymateb yn hwyrach (Digwyddiadau Effaith Lefel Isel), drwy waith gweithredol rheolaidd
yn ystod oriau swyddfa, neu;
Peidio ag ymateb (pan nad yw'r gŵyn neu ddigwyddiad o fewn ein cylch gwaith) Bydd ein hymateb ar unwaith i ddigwyddiadau effaith lefel uchel yn golygu cymryd camau priodol i leihau niwed i bobl, cymunedau ac amgylchedd Cymru. Efallai y bydd ein hymateb yn cynnwys ymweliad, ac efallai ddim. Efallai y byddwn yn ymateb i ddigwyddiadau effaith lefel isel naill ai yn ystod ein gwaith o ddydd i ddydd, trwy ein swyddogaethau rheoleiddio, neu ond trwy ddefnyddio'r wybodaeth a dderbyniwyd fel data i lywio ein rhaglenni gwaith yn y dyfodol.
Byddwn hefyd yn cofnodi gwybodaeth ynglŷn â digwyddiadau a chwynion, er mwyn darganfod tueddiadau a phennu rhaglenni gwaith ataliol yn y dyfodol.
Ar gyfer pwy mae'r ddogfen hon?
Diben y ddogfen hon yw helpu ein cwsmeriaid i ddeall pa ddigwyddiadau y byddwn yn ymateb iddynt, sut, a phryd. Rhaid iddi gael ei dilyn gan ein staff sy'n asesu ac yn categoreiddio digwyddiadau (gan gynnwys digwyddiadau a chwynion) y rhoddwyd gwybod i Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru amdanynt drwy'r llinell argyfwng 0300 065 3000, er mwyn penderfynu ar ein hymateb.

## 1. Cyflwyniad
Rydym wedi datblygu polisi categoreiddio digwyddiad integredig fel rhan o'n dull cyffredinol i ddarparu rheolaeth adnoddau naturiol ac atal difrod i'r amgylchedd. Mae categoreiddio digwyddiadau posibl a gwirioneddol yn caniatáu i ni ddefnyddio dull sy'n seiliedig ar risg er mwyn blaenoriaethu ein gwaith i sicrhau ein bod yn cyflawni'r buddion gorau posibl i amgylchedd, pobl ac economi Cymru. Atal digwyddiadau rhag digwydd yn y lle cyntaf yw ein prif nod, er mwyn sicrhau bod ein hadnoddau naturiol yn cael eu rheoli'n briodol, ac fel rhan annatod o'n gwaith paratoi am ddigwyddiadau a gwaith rheoleiddio. Fel sefydliad sy'n seiliedig ar dystiolaeth, byddwn yn defnyddio data a dadansoddiadau i gyfleu naratif argyhoeddiadol ynghylch y manteision clir i gymunedau, yr economi a'r amgylchedd mewn perthynas ag atal digwyddiadau amgylcheddol.
## 2. Ein Swyddogaeth O Ran Ymateb I Ddigwyddiad
Rydym yn Ymatebwr Categori Un o dan Ddeddf Argyfyngau Sifil Posibl 2004, sy'n golygu bod gennym gyfrifoldeb cyfreithiol pwysig i ymateb yn uniongyrchol i ddigwyddiadau ac i gefnogi swyddogaethau rheoli digwyddiadau sefydliadau eraill megis y gwasanaethau brys, byrddau iechyd ac awdurdodau lleol drwy roi cyngor a gwybodaeth. Ategir ein swyddogaeth rheoli digwyddiadau gan amrywiaeth o ddyletswyddau statudol a phwerau, Deddf Bywyd Gwyllt a Chefn Gwlad 1981, Deddf Iechyd Planhigion 1967, Deddf Coedwigaeth 1967, Rheoliadau Trwyddedu Amgylcheddol 2010, Deddf Rheoli Llifogydd a Dŵr 2010, a Deddf Argyfyngau Sifil Posibl 2004 fel yr amlinellir uchod, ymysg eraill.
Ariennir ein gwasanaeth gan Lywodraeth Cymru ac mae angen iddo ganolbwyntio er mwyn darparu gwerth effeithlon ac effeithiol.
Nid ydym yn wasanaeth brys - yr heddlu sydd fel arfer yn cydlynu'r gwaith rheoli cyffredinol sy'n gysylltiedig â digwyddiad mawr pan mae'r digwyddiad yn peri risg posibl i ddiogelwch y cyhoedd, a'r awdurdodau lleol sydd yn arwain wrth ddarparu cymorth a gwellhad i'r gymuned. Fel rheolydd a chynghorwr, rydym yn gweithio i leihau amlder ac effaith digwyddiadau. Fel cynghorwr, rydym yn darparu cyngor technegol arbenigol a data mewn perthynas ag
ystod eang o bynciau i gynorthwyo ein partneriaid proffesiynol o ran y modd y maent yn ymgymryd â'u dyletswyddau rheoli digwyddiadau ac rydym yn dechrau'r gwaith adfer yn gynnar er mwyn lleihau'r effeithiau amgylcheddol.
Fel gweithredwr, rydym yn lleihau'r tebygolrwydd o gael digwyddiadau ar y tir a reolir
gennym, ac yn cynnal a chadw ein hasedau rheoli digwyddiad penodol, megis amddiffynfeydd llifogydd. Byddwn yn ymdrin bob amser â digwyddiad yn ei gyfanrwydd, gan ystyried ei ganlyniadau uniongyrchol ac anuniongyrchol, gan gynnwys y mesurau a ddefnyddiwyd i'w reoli.
Mae gennym waith a arweinir yn strategol, yn dactegol ac yn weithredol i sicrhau bod gennym system lywodraethu gywir ar waith ar gyfer atal, paratoi, ymateb, lleoli staff, adfer
yn dilyn y digwyddiad, ac adolygu digwyddiadau i ddangos yr hyn yr ydym wedi'i ddysgu a sut yr ydym wedi datblygu i ddarparu gwasanaeth effeithiol. Mae'r mathau o ddigwyddiadau y byddwn gyfrifol amdanynt yn bennaf yn cynnwys: Ymateb i a rhybuddio am lifogydd Safleoedd dynodedig Troseddau bywyd gwyllt Ansawdd yr aer Rheoli Peryglon Damweiniau Mawr (COMAH)
Rhywogaethau gwarchodedig Llygredd (aer, tir a dŵr) Iechyd planhigion ac anifeiliaid Rhywogaethau estron Sychder Digwyddiadau morol Sylweddau niwclear ac ymbelydrol Parhad busnes Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
## 3. Ein Dull Sy'N Seiliedig Ar Risg Ar Gyfer Categoreiddio Digwyddiadau
Mae categoreiddio digwyddiadau yn rhan allweddol o'r ffordd yr ydym yn ymateb i ddigwyddiadau. Mae'n nodi sut rydym yn categoreiddio digwyddiad ac yn penderfynu ar ymateb priodol. Mae ein Canllawiau Categoreiddio Digwyddiadau yn cynnwys fframwaith gwneud
penderfyniadau er mwyn cyflawni ein swyddogaeth rheoli digwyddiadau a sicrhau ei bod yn: seiliedig ar risg; yn gyson; ac yn canolbwyntio ar le a phryd y gallwn gyfrannu yn y ffordd orau, er mwyn sicrhau'r
canlyniadau gorau posibl.
Byddwn yn categoreiddio ein hymateb i unrhyw ddigwyddiad yn unol â'r effaith wirioneddol a phosibl ar bobl, cymunedau ac amgylchedd Cymru, ac unrhyw effeithiau ar ein sefydliad ni. Byddwn yn mabwysiadu dull sy'n seiliedig ar risg wrth ymateb i ddigwyddiadau, a bydd ein hymateb yn gymesur â'r prif ffactorau canlynol: risg i staff, contractwyr a phobl sy'n ymweld â'n hystâd (tir, adeiladau, asedau);1 ein gallu i gymryd camau gweithredu i atal neu leihau'r effaith ar yr amgylchedd;
ein rôl o fewn y digwyddiad; ac ein henw da proffesiynol.
Gan ystyried y ffactorau uchod, mae'r prif feini prawf generig sy'n cael eu hystyried wrth asesu unrhyw ddigwyddiad fel a ganlyn: risg i iechyd cyhoeddus, gan gynnwys effeithiau ar ansawdd yr aer, arogleuon, sŵn,
ymbelydredd, ac effaith ar amwynder;
risg posibl i un o'n hasedau, y tir neu gyrff dŵr a reolir gennym; effaith ddifrifol ar adnoddau naturiol Cymru (gan gynnwys effeithiau ar aer, tir, dŵr,
pysgodfeydd a bioamrywiaeth) a'r effaith ar gadwraeth a'r economi;
llifogydd gwirioneddol neu bosibl mewn eiddo neu isadeiledd; ein rhan ni mewn ymateb aml-asiantaeth; diddordeb y cyfryngau a/neu risg i'n henw da.
Rydym yn defnyddio'r data o bob mathau o ddigwyddiadau i ddeall lle mae ein risgiau mwyaf yn bodoli er mwyn dylanwadu ar ein gwaith atal. Er enghraifft, byddwn yn rhoi cyngor i ffermwyr o ran storio slyri er mwyn atal arllwysiadau slyri a digwyddiadau llygru dŵr. Mae hyn yn arwain at ddigwyddiadau amgylcheddol llai aml a llai difrifol, sy'n fuddiol i amgylchedd, pobl ac economi Cymru.
Wrth ymateb i ddigwyddiadau, byddwn yn dilyn Egwyddor y Llygrwr sy'n Talu a, phan fo'n briodol, byddwn yn ceisio adennill costau am ein hamser wrth ymateb i a rhwystro digwyddiadau rhag achosi niwed i'r amgylchedd.
## 4. Diffiniad Digwyddiad
Diffinnir digwyddiad posibl neu wirioneddol fel:
'Digwyddiad penodol, y tynnwyd ein sylw ato ac sydd o fewn ein maes cyfrifoldebau, a allai
gael effaith amgylcheddol a/neu weithrediadol ac efallai y bydd gofyn i Cyfoeth Naturiol
Cymru ymateb iddo.' Mae digwyddiadau sy'n codi efallai na fyddwn yn ystyried eu bod yn ddigwyddiad yn cynnwys digwyddiadau y tynnwyd ein sylw atynt: nad ydynt yn dod o dan ein cyfrifoldebau statudol, a/neu nad ydynt yn effeithio ar yr amgylchedd, a/neu nad ydynt yn effeithio ar ein gwaith ein hunain nac ein henw da.
## 5. Beth Sydd O Fewn Ein Cylch Gorchwyl A'R Tu Allan Iddo
O ran digwyddiadau, mae ein cylch gwaith yn cynnwys y canlynol (o bwys arbennig os ydynt yn digwydd ar ased a reolir gennym): difrod neu risg i'r amgylchedd naturiol; difrod neu risg i'n hasedau; achosi llygredd dŵr, tir neu aer; potsio neu bysgota anghyfreithlon, gan gynnwys pysgota â gwialen, rhwydi a chasglu
cocos;
torri coed yn anghyfreithlon; pysgod sy'n gofidio neu bysgod meirw; clefyd coed, troseddau bywyd gwyllt sydd eisoes wedi'u gwneud (dylid adrodd i'r heddlu ynglŷn â
digwyddiadau cyfredol drwy ffonio'r rhif a ddefnyddir pan nad yw'n argyfwng, 101);
llifogydd posibl neu wirioneddol a achosir gan:
- tywydd garw, amodau llanw a/neu achosion pan fydd rhwystr, methiant, torri neu
ddifrod i amddiffynfa llifogydd neu ased,
- creu adeiladwaith a allai beri risg o lifogydd, gan gynnwys llifogydd o gwrs dŵr nad
yw'n rhan o'r brif ffrwd sy'n rhan o'n hystad;
malurion sydd â'r posibilrwydd o achosi rhwystr ar brif gwrs ddŵr;
yr holl dipio anghyfreithlon a gollyngiadau gwastraff diwydiannol/masnachol ar ein tir; tipio anghyfreithlon a dympio gwastraff peryglus neu feintiau sylweddol o wastraff
diwydiannol/masnachol yn anghyfreithlon, (>20 tunnell, neu lwyth gan dryc tipio) nad yw ar ein tir;
digwyddiadau sy'n ymwneud ag arogleuon, llwch, plâu a fermin, ysbwriel, a mwd a
malurion ar briffyrdd cyhoeddus mewn safleoedd a reolir gennym, megis safleoedd tirlenwi, gorsafoedd trosglwyddo gwastraff ac ati;
llosgi gwastraff masnachol, diwydiannol neu beryglus, megis asbestos, heb drwydded; tynnu dŵr o neu ollwng dŵr i gyrsiau dŵr, neu wneud newidiadau iddynt, heb ein
caniatâd ni;

## 6. Sut Yr Ydym Yn Categoreiddio Digwyddiadau
Ar ôl i ni gael ein hysbysu am ddigwyddiad, rydym yn categoreiddio digwyddiadau yn ôl un o'r pum lefel ganlynol, yn unol â lefel yr effaith a'r ymateb sy'n ofynnol: Digwyddiad Effaith Lefel Uchel Digwyddiad Effaith Lefel Isel Digwyddiad - Dim Effaith Cwyn Ddim o fewn ein cylch gwaith
Pan fyddwn yn derbyn hysbysiad am ddigwyddiad Byddwn yn cofnodi, yn cyfeirio ac yn categoreiddio digwyddiad o fewn un awr wedi i ni
dderbyn yr hysbysiad.
Digwyddiadau Effaith Lefel Uchel:sut y byddwn yn ymateb ac erbyn pryd
Digwyddiad Effaith Lefel Uchel: digwyddiad y bydd ei effaith yn gofyn am ymateb ar unwaith iddo ar sail 24 awr, er mwyn lleihau effaith y digwyddiad. Ymateb ar unwaith i Ddigwyddiad Effaith Lefel Uchel yw unrhyw weithgaredd a gyflawnir yn syth ar ôl iddo gael ei gategoreiddio, boed hynny o fewn neu y tu allan i oriau swyddfa, er mwyn lleihau effaith digwyddiad ar yr amgylchedd, y bobl a'r economi. Gallai'r ymateb gynnwys y gweithgareddau canlynol cyn gynted ag y mae'n ymarferol bosibl ac o fewn pedair awr, fel sy'n ofynnol:
cyhoeddi hysbysiadau ffurfiol; rhoi cyngor technegol dros y ffôn a thrwy e-bost; cyflwyno rhybuddion llifogydd, monitro'r lefelau o bell; mynychu grwpiau rheoli aml-asiantaeth, cyfathrebu ac ati; casglu gwybodaeth droseddol amgylcheddol benodol; ymateb i ymholiadau gan y cyfryngau;
bod yn bresennol yn ystod gweithgareddau safle a gweithgareddau ar y safle, casglu
samplau ac ati.
Dylem ond fod yn bresennol lle mae gofyn amlwg i wneud hynny, pan fydd ein presenoldeb ar y safle yn cyfrannu'n sylweddol at leihau effeithiau'r digwyddiad, a lle nad oes modd i ni gyfrannu'n effeithiol o bell.
Digwyddiadau Effaith Lefel Isel:sut byddwn yn ymateb ac erbyn pryd
Digwyddiad Effaith Lefel Isel: digwyddiad nad yw ei effaith yn gofyn am ymateb ar unwaith o fewn oriau swyddfa arferol neu, os caiff ei dderbyn y tu allan i oriau swyddfa, gellir gohirio'r ymateb i oriau swyddfa arferol ac ymdrin ag ef fel gwaith gweithredol arferol ('gwaith bob dydd', h.y. fel rhan o fusnes arferol ac o fewn oriau swyddfa arferol). Mae'r ymateb i Ddigwyddiad Lefel Isel yn weithgaredd o fewn oriau swyddfa arferol ac fe allai gynnwys y gweithgareddau canlynol. Gall yr ymateb gynnwys y gweithgareddau canlynol o fewn oriau swyddfa, fel sy'n ofynnol: cyhoeddi hysbysiadau ffurfiol; rhoi cyngor technegol arbenigol dros y ffôn a thrwy e-bost; casglu data amgylcheddol penodol; ymateb i ymholiadau gan y cyfryngau; ymweliad, os oes angen o gwbl - gweler yr esboniad isod. Ni fydd y rhan fwyaf o Ddigwyddiadau Effaith Lefel Isel yn haeddu ymweliad gennym. Byddwn ond mynd i Ddigwyddiadau Effaith Lefel Isel os yw'n briodol drwy gynllunio i ymweld ar ddyddiad neu adeg hwyrach, fel rhan o'n gwaith arferol, ac yn dibynnu ar y risgiau a phenderfyniad yr asesiad.
Digwyddiadau, cwynion a phethau eraill nad ydynt yn dod o dan ein cylch gwaith
Yn ogystal â chael ein hysbysu ynglŷn â phethau yr ystyriwn eu bod yn ddigwyddiadau, rydym yn derbyn hysbysiadau am eraill sy'n dod yn agos i, ond nad ydynt yn bodloni, y diffiniad o 'Ddigwyddiad'. Maent yn dal i fod yn ddigwyddiadau penodol, y rhoddir gwybod i ni amdanynt ac sy'n dod o dan ein maes cyfrifoldeb, ond nad ydynt yn effeithio ar yr amgylchedd a/neu ar weithrediadau mewn ffordd sy'n haeddu ymateb Digwyddiad Lefel Uchel neu Lefel Isel. Oherwydd hyn, nid ydynt yn cael eu hystyried yn 'Ddigwyddiadau', ac nid oes angen ymateb sydd o'r math 'Digwyddiad' arnynt. Serch hynny, rydym yn dal i ddymuno categoreiddio a chofnodi'r wybodaeth. O fewn Canllawiau Categoreiddio Digwyddiadau, mae tri math o ddigwyddiad, a elwir yn 'Digwyddiadau - Dim Effaith', 'Cwynion' a 'Ddim o fewn ein Cylch Gwaith'.
**Digwyddiad - Dim Effaith –** Mae digwyddiad yn rhywbeth sy'n digwydd neu a welwyd
yr hysbyswyd i ni amdano, ond nad oes ganddo unrhyw effaith amgylcheddol na gweithredol o bwys ac felly nid yw'n haeddu ymateb Lefel Uchel neu Lefel Isel, e.e. coeden sydd wedi disgyn ar draws llwybr droed neu ar ein tir.
**Cwyn (C) –** Mae cwyn yn rhywbeth sy'n digwydd neu a welwyd yr hysbyswyd i ni
amdano, ond nad oes ganddo unrhyw effaith amgylcheddol neu weithredol ac felly nid yw'n haeddu ymateb Lefel Uchel neu Lefel Isel ond mae'r galwr yn cwyno amdano. Mae'r galwr yn tynnu sylw at y ffaith ei fod yn fwy nag ond digwyddiad (neu arsylwad)
iddo, a bod hynny'n ddigon iddo fynegi'r ffaith ei fod yn anfodlon ag ef. Mae'r mathau hyn o alwadau yn adrodd am 'werth niwsans' neu 'golled o werth amwynder' yn aml.
Nodyn- Bydd unrhyw ddigwyddiad sy'n cynnwys dwst, sŵn neu arogl ynglyn a
cyfleusterau EPR sy'n cael eu arolygu gan CNC (e.e gosodiadau diwydianol neu gyfleusterau gwastraff) ddim yn cael recordio fel 'cwynion' na chwaith fel WIRS.
Bydd angen i rhain cael ei recordio fel 'digwyddiad' a'u asesu yn ol y gofyn.
Os yw'r alwad yn cynnwys neu ond yn ymwneud â diffyg gweithredu canfyddedig neu wirioneddol gennym ni o ran y broblem, mae'n rhaid i'r swyddog cymwys ddilyn y Polisi Cwynion priodol a throsglwyddo'r rhan honno o'r alwad yn briodol. Nid yw ein Polisi Cwynion yn berthnasol os yw'n apêl gan drydydd parti yn erbyn penderfyniad 'a wnaed yn briodol' gan Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru lle mae'r cyfreithiau, polisïau a'r gweithdrefnau perthnasol wedi'u dilyn yn gywir wrth ddod i benderfyniad.
Gall Digwyddiadau - Dim Effaith a Chwynion lywio rhaglenni monitro ac mae'n bosibl y cyfeirir atynt yn ystod gwaith gweithredol rheolaidd yn y dyfodol.
**Ddim o fewn ein Cylch Gwaith** - Bydd y rhan fwyaf o ddigwyddiadau yr hysbyswyd i ni
amdanynt yn cael eu hidlo allan cyn iddynt ddod i'r Canllawiau Categoreiddio
Digwyddiadau a'r System Cofnodi Digwyddiadau Cymru (WIRS), a bydd yr hysbyswr yn cael ei gyfeirio at y parti priodol.
O bryd i'w gilydd, bydd digwyddiad yn cael ei ystyried fel digwyddiad posibl ac yn cael ei gyfeirio at swyddog cymwys er mwyn cynnal asesiad. Gall yr asesiad hwnnw benderfynu nad yw'r hyn sy'n digwydd mewn gwirionedd yn ddigwyddiad na chwyn fel y diffinnir uchod, gan nad yw'n dod o dan gylch gwaith na chyfrifoldebau Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru.
Felly, mae'n dod o dan y categori **Ddim o fewn ein Cylch Gwaith**, a dylai'r manylion llawn gael eu trosglwyddo i'r trydydd parti priodol (e.e. yr awdurdod lleol) cyn gynted â phosibl.
Swyddogaeth ein Canolfan Cyfathrebu Digwyddiadau wrth gategoreiddio digwyddiadau Bydd ein Canolfan Cyfathrebu Digwyddiadau yn cofnodi, yn cyfeirio, ac yn cynnal gweithgareddau rheolaidd yn ystod a'r tu allan i oriau swyddfa. Mewn perthynas â rhai mathau o ddigwyddiadau (Lefel Uchel a Lefel Isel), bydd y Ganolfan Cyfathrebu Digwyddiadau yn cynnal gweithgareddau rheolaidd megis hysbysiadau diwydiant neu wastraff sy'n benodol i'r safle drwy anfon e-bost neu ffacs, neu drwy ddosbarthu hysbysiadau megis adroddiadau Meteoroleg Cemegol ac Adroddiadau Llygredd Morol. Cynhelir y gweithgareddau rheolaidd hyn gan y Ganolfan Cyfathrebu Digwyddiadau yn aml pan fydd y digwyddiad yn dal i gael ei asesu gan y swyddog cymwys o dan y Canllawiau Categoreiddio Digwyddiadau. Er bod y gweithgareddau hyn yn ffurfio rhan o ymateb cyffredinol Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru i ddigwyddiad, nid ydynt yn rhan ffurfiol o'r Canllawiau Categoreiddio Digwyddiadau ac nid ydynt wedi'u cynnwys yn y lefelau gwasanaeth uchod.
## 7. Categoreiddio Cychwynnol A Therfynol
Byddwn yn asesu digwyddiad yr hysbyswyd i ni amdano yn unol â'i effaith bosibl neu wirioneddol. Mae ein hasesiad o'r wybodaeth hon yn pennu sut y byddwn yn categoreiddio'r digwyddiad ar y dechrau, ac wedyn bydd y categoreiddio cychwynnol hwnnw'n pennu lefel ein hymateb. Mae categori terfynol a bennwyd yn cael ei gadarnhau unwaith y bydd gwybodaeth bellach yn dod i'r amlwg, efallai o ganlyniad i'n hymateb, ein hymweliad â'r safle, neu ar ôl derbyn gwybodaeth bellach gan bartneriaid proffesiynol neu bobl eraill. Gall newid i'r categori a bennwyd o'r asesiad a chategoreiddio cychwynnol i'r asesiad a chategoreiddio terfynol ddigwydd. Mae'n fwyaf tebygol o gael ei ystyried ar gyfer digwyddiad, e.e. efallai y bydd Digwyddiad Effaith Lefel Uchel yn cael ei asesu fel Digwyddiad Effaith Lefel Isel yn y pen draw, neu i'r gwrthwyneb. Yn yr un modd, efallai y bydd digwyddiad yn cael ei ystyried o fod yn Lefel Isel, ond pan fyddwn yn ymateb yn ystod oriau swyddfa, mae'n bosibl y byddwn yn gweld na chafwyd unrhyw effaith amgylcheddol, ac felly gallai'r categori terfynol fod yn 'Ddigwyddiad - Dim Effaith'. Mae digwyddiadau - dim effaith a chwynion yn llai tebygol o newid rhwng categoreiddio cychwynnol a therfynol, ond mae'n bosibl y bydd y naill neu'r llall yn cael ei ailasesu fel digwyddiad (lefel uchel neu isel) os daw gwybodaeth ychwanegol i law, yn enwedig os ydym yn derbyn sawl cwyn debyg ar yr un pryd.
Dylai adolygiadau a sesiynau adrodd yn ôl sicrhau adborth ynglŷn â chategoreiddio digwyddiadau er mwyn lleihau'r tebygolrwydd o bennu'r categori cychwynnol anghywir ar gyfer digwyddiadau tebyg yn y dyfodol.
## 8. Hysbysiadau A Gadarnhawyd A Hysbysiadau Di-Sail
Mae digwyddiad yn cael ei gofnodi fel un a gadarnhawyd os yw'r hyn a ddigwyddodd wedi digwydd mewn gwirionedd. Nid oes rhaid iddo fod wedi cael effaith amgylcheddol neu weithredol, ac nid oes angen i rywun fod yn bresennol yno. Gall digwyddiadau a gadarnhawyd nad ydynt yn effeithio ar yr amgylchedd, neu le nad yw'n bosibl cadarnhau'r effaith, gael eu cofnodi fel Digwyddiad - Dim Effaith. Nid oes angen mynd i ddigwyddiad er mwyn bod yn hyderus bod yr hyn yr hysbyswyd amdano wedi digwydd mewn gwirionedd. Gall digwyddiadau gael eu nodi fel rhai a gadarnhawyd, a bydd yr effaith yn cael ei chategoreiddio yn seiliedig ar wybodaeth neu dystiolaeth (e.e. ffotograffau) a roddir gan yr hysbysydd. Dylid ystyried dibynadwyedd yr hysbysydd a natur yr hyn sy'n cael ei hysbysu. Er enghraifft, efallai y bydd cwyn niwsans neu ddisgrifiad o lygrydd a'i effaith yn agored i'w ddehongli ac yn annibynadwy. Byddai nifer o hysbysiadau gyda'r un disgrifiad yn arwydd o ddibynadwyedd, yn ogystal ag adroddiadau gan awdurdodau lleol, ffynonellau y gellir ymddiried ynddynt, a phartneriaid proffesiynol eraill.
Nodyn, dylai amwynder caniatad amgylcheddol di-gydymffurfio gael ei gadarnhau gan swyddog CNC. Dylai digwyddiad gael ei gofnodi fel digwyddiad di-sail pan, yn dilyn arolygiad neu asesiad, nad oes unrhyw dystiolaeth o'r hyn yr hysbyswyd amdano.

Yn ddibynnol ar y risg o lifogydd, mae hyn yn sbarduno ymateb gennym ni, y llywodraeth a phartneriaid proffesiynol cyn i'r llifogydd ddigwydd. Rydym yn darparu gwasanaeth rhybuddion llifogydd ar gyfer partneriaid proffesiynol a'r cyhoedd er mwyn eu rhybuddio am lifogydd o afon neu ffynonellau arfordirol. Ategir hyn gan bwerau o dan Ddeddf Adnoddau Dŵr 1992 (Adran 166) a Chyfarwyddyd Gweinidogol 1996. Mae Hysbysiadau Llifogydd, Rhybuddion Llifogydd a Rhybuddion Llifogydd Difrifol yn cael eu cyhoeddi yn seiliedig ar amodau a ragwelwyd neu a welwyd ond, mewn achosion Rhybuddion Llifogydd Difrifol, gwneir hyn ar y cyd â phartneriaid proffesiynol a gwybodaeth sy'n benodol i ardal ynglŷn â'r risg i fywyd.

I am pleased to champion the publication of a report by The National Archives on our approach to information management. This report shows that we have made good progress in a number of areas, including the management of our information risks and assets. In May 2016 the Ministry of Justice invited The National Archives to assess our approach to information management as part of the cross-government information management assessment programme and to see how far we have come since their previous report in 2011.
I am glad to see that we have been assessed as good or satisfactory in most areas and that the report recognises the progress we've made in the management of our information risks and assets.
The 2011 report sets out 34 recommendations for us to work on; this has now been reduced to six recommendations. I agree with the report that there are still areas we must improve on. We have therefore published an action plan alongside this report including some actions we have already started to tackle. These include:
Setting clear goals and being better at monitoring compliance with knowledge and information management policies.
Ensuring that our technology supports the management, protection and exploitation of information and that staff can use it effectively.
Building on our good work in records review and transfer to date, develop an approach to appraise digital records on the shared drives.
Embedding a process for information asset management and information risk by reviewing and raising awareness of roles and responsibilities.
Continuing to improve understanding of information assets and ensuring cyber security risks are included as part of the risk management framework.
We all have a responsibility to manage and protect our information properly, and to use it smartly. This report describes the challenges we face in realising this aim, and offers a sensible and practical way forward.

## Strategic Report
This page is intentionally left blank.
## Introduction By Richard Heaton Permanent Secretary For The Cabinet Office
As Permanent Secretary, I am proud of the achievements of teams and individuals across the Department this year. Their flexibility, and their ability to lead on a challenging set of priorities, has produced substantial results. The Minister for the Cabinet Office's Strategic Review on page 11, describes in more detail the strategic context in which the Cabinet Office has operated this year. The annual report and accounts is an opportunity to look back at some of the year's highlights, as well as to set out formally our financial position. Much of what we have done this year has been new or transformative. We have found different ways to help the government tackle public policy problems, and save money. We launched the Centre for Social Action, which has committed £36 million for volunteering projects to tackle persistent social problems. November saw the appointment of a second new shared services centre, bringing commercial expertise as well as government coownership to the efficient delivery of vital back-office functions. The National Citizen Service has been successfully nurtured under Cabinet Office management, and is now administered by an independent not-for-profit enterprise. And the Behavioural Insights Team is now a partnership with the innovation charity Nesta. There is also a range of other business we have discharged professionally and safely: keeping the nation safe, stimulating economic growth, cutting regulation, taking legislation through Parliament, and supporting effective government. We have done that through a skilled and talented workforce, from career civil servants to those spending a chapter of their careers with us. I would like to thank all of those colleagues for their commitment.
## Who We Are
We are privileged to be tasked with some of the most important issues facing the country: from making government more efficient to supporting the voluntary sector through challenging times; from tackling the growing menace of cybercrime to overseeing UK
honours and awards.
Cabinet Office supports the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister, and ensures the effective running of government. We are also the corporate headquarters for government, in partnership with HM Treasury, and we take the lead in certain critical policy areas.
A ministerial department, the Cabinet Office is supported by 18 agencies and public bodies. Every day we work together to assist government function better, deliver exceptional public services and help the UK become a stronger and fairer society.

## Spending Summary For 2013-14
Departments report financial information quarterly through the Government Interrogating Spending Tool (GIST). On the GIST you will be able to see a breakdown of government spend as per HM Treasury's financial reporting system. Within major departments you will also be able to link to the Cabinet Office's Quarterly Data Summary information, which focuses on the expenditure that is most relevant for that department and is collected in a way that makes data comparable across government. The data can be found here: www.gist.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/
Below is the Spending Data for 2013-14. These totals tie to the totals in Financial Highlights within the Financial Review which explains the numbers in more detail.

Government spend with SMEs increased from £3 billion in 2009-10 to £4.5 billion in 2012-13.
We have also more than halved the length of the average procurement process since 2012 -
from 208 working days to 102 working days. Over 19,000 opportunities have now been published on our on-line tool the Contracts Finder to help SMEs spot opportunities more easily.
## G-Cloud
Cumulative G-Cloud spend surpassed the £100 million mark - 56% of it with SMEs.
## Major Projects Leadership Academy (Mpla)
The second MPLA cohort graduated in February 2014.
## Property
By the end of 2013-14, we had vacated over 1,000 leasehold properties and raised more than £1 billion for the taxpayer since 2010 by selling over 770 buildings and land we no longer need. This means that the government office estate is 17% smaller than it was in
2010.
## How We Create Value Mutuals
Nearly 100 mutuals are now live and trading, up from just eight in 2010. Together they now deliver around £1.5 billion of public services.
## Staff Survey
We published the benchmark results of the Civil Service staff survey. The survey shows that 89% of staff are interested in their work; 88% say that they are trusted to carry out their job effectively; and 80% say their team works together to find ways to improve the service they provide.
## Payroll
Civil Service employment has now reduced by
17% since the general election, helping to save the taxpayer £2.4 billion last year alone. The Civil Service is now at its smallest since the Second World War, representing a significant increase in efficiency and productivity.
## Public Bodies
Over 180 public bodies have now been abolished, with total number of public bodies reduced by 280. This means that 95% of proposed abolitions and mergers are now complete, and we achieved our public commitment to deliver 90% of abolitions and mergers by March 2014. To date, the Government has reduced the administrative cost of public bodies by over £1 billion and remains on track to achieve cumulative net reductions of at least £2.6 billion by 2014-15. By the next general election, a third of public bodies in the Government's reform programme will have been closed down, and there will be over 300 fewer than at the 2010 Election making this the largest reform of public bodies in a generation.
# Strategic Review By Rt Hon. Francis Maude Mp Minister For The Cabinet Office, Paymaster General
The Cabinet Office has made good progress in 2013-14, continuing its work to eliminate waste and inefficient spending, reform the civil service, build a bigger society, drive greater transparency and protect national security. I am grateful to civil servants in this department and across the country for the work they have done. The Government faced a substantial financial challenge in 2010. This department has played an important role in changing the way the Civil Service works to help reduce public expenditure and protect our frontline services. The Efficiency and Reform Group (ERG) has delivered significant savings year after year. The Group has operated tight control over common activities such as property, ICT, and procurement in central government and reduce costs. For 2013-14, ERG supported departments to deliver a £14.3 billion of savings, against a 2009-10 baseline. Alongside our work on major projects, digital transformation, and fraud, error and debt, this department is helping to change the way the Civil Service works.
This year was another important milestone for the efficiency and reform agenda as the Crown Commercial Service (CCS) was launched. CCS brings together the government's central commercial capability to manage common goods and service on behalf of departments. Government is acting as a single customer, helping us drive the best value for taxpayers through its collective buying power.
In other areas, the department has continued to drive innovative changes to public service delivery. The mutuals programme, for example, has seen the creation of almost 100 trading staff-owned mutuals, with responsibility for over £1.5 billion worth of services. The Government Digital Service (GDS) is changing the way citizens interact with public services, by consolidating more websites on GOV.UK and developing 25 new digital exemplar services. On transparency, the Cabinet Office has helped to release thousands of data sets on data.gov.uk and in June 2013, G8 governments came together under the UK presidency to agree a landmark Open Data Charter. The Civil Service Reform programme is seeking to create a new culture - one that is more efficient and focused on service delivery. Our Civil Service Reform One Year On report gives an honest appraisal of what we have achieved. There is still much more to do and the Cabinet Office will continue to play an important part in building capability and strengthening cross-Whitehall functional leadership. Along with HM Treasury, the Cabinet Office is a strong and effective corporate centre at the heart of the Civil Service. It supports the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister on key policy areas, and helping to protect our national security. The Secretariats facilitate collective decision-making across government.
2013-14 has been a busy year, with many important milestones. We have continued to support the Government's priorities to reduce the deficit, drive growth, build a fairer society and protect our security. I am proud of the work this department does and am confident that we can build on the progress made over the last four years in the last year of this Parliament. A detailed account of the strategic risks and our mitigation strategy can be found in the Governance Statement.
Rt Hon. Francis Maude Minister for the Cabinet Office, Paymaster General

## Overview
Sustainable development means encouraging economic growth while protecting the environment and improving our quality of life - all without affecting the ability of future generations to do the same. Sustainable development recognises that the three 'pillars' of the economy, society and the environment are interconnected. The Cabinet Office strives to embed the principles of sustainable development in all of its operations and activities. The Department is working to reduce its energy consumption and associated carbon emissions and costs, as well as to mitigate its wider environmental impacts, with the aim of becoming an exemplar in this field. The important work on protecting national security and improving social mobility undertaken by the Department continues to contribute to a secure and sustainable future for all.
The Cabinet Office has implemented a number of projects to help the Department deliver the carbon reduction targets announced under the Greening Government Commitments. The Department continues to drive down its waste arisings, and is working in partnership with the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the Waste and Resources Action Programme to make further savings in this area. As well as these measures, the Cabinet Office is also working to incorporate sustainability considerations into its wider policy- and decision-making process.
Initiatives This work is further supported by Big Society Capital (BSC), the world's first ever social investment institution. BSC was established by the Cabinet Office and launched as an independent organisation in April 2012. Its aim
## Sustainable Development
is to grow the social investment market. BSC invests in bodies that provide finance and other support to social sector organisations - making it easier for social entrepreneurs to access the capital they need and to become sustainable. BSC has up to £600 million in capital to invest: £400 million from England's share of unclaimed assets and £200 million invested by four large retail banks. Two years into its operation, BSC has just published its second annual report, available at: Social Investment from Ambition to Capital Nearly £150 million in investment has been committed so far to a wide range of organisations. BSC has recently published its strategy, which sets out its vision for the future social investment market and what it will do to work towards this vision, in partnership with others. The strategy is available at: Big Society Capital - Our strategy for the next three years
The Implementation Unit in the Cabinet Office has supported Defra to embed sustainable development into the departmental business planning process, a key step in delivering the Government's commitment to mainstreaming sustainable development.
Sustainable development is now included within the guidance for departmental business plans as a mandatory component of all plans. Details of each department's business plan can be found at:
Business Plans:
track progress in implementing our policies The Cabinet Office leads on the crossgovernment transparency agenda.
Transparency is not just about access to data. People need to be able to use that data, share it, and combine it with other data for use in their own applications. Used in this way, open data can create value by providing an opportunity for businesses to take the data and produce goods and services from it.
Information on government transparency can be found at: Improving the transparency and accountability of government and its services
The resulting data is published at:
http://data.gov.uk/
The Cabinet Office sits on the crossgovernment Sustainable Development Practitioners' Forum and the Sustainable Development Group, both chaired by Defra.
Wider work The Cabinet Office is working on a number of key programmes which will also have a significant contribution to make towards mainstreaming sustainability.
These work streams include:
growing the social investment market - comprehensive information available at:
Growing the social investment market
the work of the Office for Civil Society:
Civil Society update series including
Promoting social action: encouraging and
enabling people to play a more active part
in society
the launch of National Citizen Service:

areas; these reports are available at:
Procurement and contracting transparency

making public services digital by default to
improve their accessibility and openness, primarily through the launch of the
GOV.UK website.
## Social And Environmental Impacts
The Cabinet Office continues to look at options for assessing and managing social and environmental impacts and opportunities in its policy development and decision-making. The Department has a number of levers at its disposal to help ensure that this is happening domestically and across government as a whole. These include:
the Department's role in delivering the Government's priorities for Civil Service reform in line with the recently published plan, available at: The Civil Service
Reform Plan
the inclusion of relevant information in the transparency reporting
undertaken by
departments. In
its
policy,
programme
and
project
development processes, the Cabinet Office makes use of both the HM Treasury Green Book and the Regulatory Impact Assessment toolkit. Both of these documents contain detailed information on how to assess and
mitigate negative outcomes which impact on sustainability. Wherever relevant, the Cabinet Office makes use of Defra's national rural proofing guidance which can be found at:
Rural proofing guidance to ensure that the
needs
and
interests
of
rural
people,
communities and businesses are properly considered
in
the
development
and
implementation
of
all
policies
and
programmes. The Cabinet Office will be
working over the coming year to identify further
opportunities to build on existing processes, in
order to ensure that sustainability is factored into
its
policy,
programme
and
project
management activities.
## Delivery Of The Greening Government Commitments
The Department has been successful in driving down its carbon footprint: this has fallen by 38.9% from its 2009-10 baseline, through a combination of improved housekeeping, investment in energy reduction measures and the implementation of an ambitious and extensive estate rationalisation and efficiency project. As the Department continues to drive forward with these measures, we anticipate a steady improvement in our performance over the lifetime of the project. The Cabinet Office now also has good-quality management information systems in place, allowing it to report accurately for the first time on the number of domestic flights taken by its staff. The Department's annual waste arisings continue to fall and are now 63.7% below 2009-10. This has primarily come about as a result of better streaming and waste separation at the processing plant. The Department has signed up to the 'Closed Loop'
paper contract, along with other contractual arrangements, thereby potentially yielding further environmental benefits. The Cabinet Office has made a reduction in its water consumption of 12.2% against the 2009-
10 baseline. These savings have arisen primarily as a result of the Department's estate rationalisation programme. The Cabinet Office has a headline consumption per full-time equivalent (FTE) member of staff of 15.5m3.
This is significantly higher than is desirable, and the organisation will work to drive this down at both departmental and building level.
It is in part because various buildings are currently under refurbishment and are therefore not fully utilised.
## Sustainable Procurement
The Cabinet Office continues to work to deliver the aspiration that 25% of contracts by value should be awarded to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). In the period to December
2013, the proportion of the Department's procurement expenditure with SMEs was 26.3%, against its annual target of 20%. This includes spend undertaken both directly, with SME prime contractors, and indirectly, through larger prime suppliers' supply chains.1 In order to support this endeavour further, the Cabinet Office, including its agency, the Crown Commercial Service, has delivered the following:
over 80% of contracts for the Mutuals Support Programme awarded to SMEs
development of a new contracting model for
facilities
management
services
designed to be more accessible for SMEs
roll-out of the Solutions Exchange online tool, enabling suppliers to engage with government about potential business, and to pitch their ideas
introduction
of
simpler
terms
and
conditions for lower-value contracts.
Food procurement
The Cabinet Office has been engaging with its key catering suppliers to encourage the procurement of food which meets British production standards. Approximately 92% of all meat and poultry supplied on the Department's central London contract was produced to Farm Assured standard (or equivalent); 100% of fish supplied was from sustainable sources certified by bodies such as the Marine Stewardship Council. All the Department's meat, poultry and milk comes from UK producers. The Department's total facilities management supplier provides healthy options within the standard daily menus, along with a diverse salad and deli bar. Details of the Cabinet Office's food procurement is available at: Cabinet Office food sustainability
## People
The Cabinet Office has a network of Green Champions to promote sustainability issues within the Department and on its estate. The membership of the network comprises staff from the Department and tenants on the Cabinet Office estate. They work to improve the sustainability of the Department by raising staff awareness of sustainability issues and by encouraging staff to take responsibility for reducing their environmental impact. The Green Champions act as a forum to develop constructive ideas for improving all aspects of the Cabinet Office's operations, from the way in which its estate is managed through to its corporate policies and processes. The Civil Service has a long tradition of supporting staff to volunteer, with many civil servants giving their time in aid of a variety of charities and community groups. The Cabinet Office recently launched its second Charity of the Year Partnership with Samaritans. The Department offers up to five days' special leave for each member of staff to undertake volunteering. Staff can organise their own volunteering activity or can visit www.doit.org.uk for ideas and information about volunteering.
Biodiversity
The Cabinet Office operates a mainly officebased estate and, as such, has not had to undertake any major work on biodiversity. The Department works to ensure that, whenever relevant, biodiversity considerations are taken into account in the event of a change of circumstances. These considerations have been embedded in the Department's environmental policy.
Sustainable construction
The Cabinet Office seeks to apply the Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) on all relevant refurbishment projects. The Department has not completed any such projects in the last financial year. The ongoing refurbishment at
10–12
Downing Street has received a BREEAM in-use rating of 'very good'. More information is available at:
http://www.breeam.org/
The Cabinet Office will work to ensure that this good performance continues, by embedding the standards in all relevant projects. The Cabinet Office endeavours to recycle all construction waste, where possible, and this is monitored internally to ensure continuing compliance with this standard.
Adapting to climate change The risks posed by climate change are too great to ignore. It is essential that policies and future plans consider these potential impacts from the very start. The Cabinet Office has an important role to play in ensuring national adaptation to the risks and opportunities presented by climate change. To this end, the Department has taken a number of steps to ensure that these considerations are reflected in its relevant planning, policies and strategies. For example:
Some of the major impacts of climate change have been identified as key threats in the National Risk Register (NRR) of Civil Emergencies. However, The
NRR
and
the
National
Risk
Assessment cover only emergency events and do not include longer-term trends, such as technological advances or climate change
in
the
broader
sense.
The
document is available at: National Risk Register of Civil Emergencies
The
security
implications
of
climate
change have been embedded in the
National Security Strategy, available at: The National Security Strategy - a strong Britain in an age of uncertainty
The Cabinet works closely with Defra on the
National
Adaptation
Programme,

## Our Performance 2013-14 Performance How We Have Delivered Against Our Coalition Government Priorities
Government priorities. Below is a diagram showing the relationship between the Cabinet Office's strategic objectives and the structural reform priorities that derive from the Coalition Government's Programme for Government.
All the strategic objectives contribute to the central priority of promoting UK growth; primary relationships between individual objectives and structural reform priorities are shown by arrows.
The Cabinet Office works to ensure the successful and efficient delivery of the Government's agenda and to help departments achieve their objectives.
Alongside this, and as part of these more general responsibilities, the Cabinet Office leads on a number of specific Coalition
The Cabinet Office publishes its commitments on No. 10's Transparency website No 10 Transparency GOV.UK also provides news and updates on progress of work undertaken by the Cabinet Office, including details of announcements of achievements on the Cabinet Office Website Progress on the key actions during 2013-14 are summarised below.
Coalition Priorities
Drive efficiency and effectiveness in government
The Cabinet Office continues its strong progress to improve efficiency and effectiveness across Whitehall. This work is taking place across a broad front, ranging from reducing inefficient and wasteful spending on major projects, through transforming public services by reforming procurement processes, to the Government's digital infrastructure, aimed at ensuring that services are readily accessible and provide a greater choice for the user. The Cabinet Office is coordinating action to reform the Civil Service, in order to improve the Service's capability and strengthen its performance.
Actions during 2013-14
The Efficiency and Reform Group (ERG)
worked across government to tackle waste and inefficiency and to realise savings of £14.3 billion in 2013-14 against a 2009-10 baseline.
## Coalition Priorities
*The figure of £14.3 billion against a 2009-10 baseline was approved by internal auditors although it is still to be reviewed by the National Audit Office
The
commitment
to
secure
the
Deregulation Bill in the third session of
Parliament was achieved in 2013-14 and the Bill received Royal Assent on 14 May.
It will help the Government in its drive to
remove
the
burden
of
unnecessary
bureaucracy on businesses.
GOV.UK was launched in October 2012
as central government's single domain
website, bringing published government information
from
various
separate
websites under one domain. As a result of building
GOV.UK
government
departments have saved over £60 million in 2013-14. Difficulties in resourcing and the complexity of some sites meant that the commitment to move more than 250 departmental, agency and arm's length bodies to GOV.UK was missed. This was resolved and by March 2014 160 sites had moved to GOV.UK; it is on track for completion by July 2014.
Developing a new organisation for debt
management
across
government
by
March 2014 was delayed due to additional work required; it will now be commissioned during 2014-15.
## Increase Transparency In The Public Sector The Cabinet Office Leads Work On Increasing Transparency In The Public Sector By Getting Data Out Of Departments And Engaging With Users Of That Data To Explain Its Potential And To Understand Their Needs. In So Doing, It Helps The Public To Hold Government To Account And Enables Users Of Public Services To Choose Between Suppliers In A Better Way. Actions During 2013-14
The Cabinet Office delivered a strong legacy from its G8 Presidency by securing a G8 Open Data Charter. It sets out five strategic principles that all G8 members and the EU have signed up to and will act upon. The UK's G8 Open Data Charter action plan was published on 31 October 2013.
As
chair
of
the
Open
Government
Partnership (OGP), the Cabinet Office organised a vibrant and inspirational OGP
summit in London at the end of October that
was
attended
by
over
1,500
participants
from
around
the
world,
including
senior
representatives
from
government and civil society. Ambitious new commitments to open government were secured from 37 attending countries. Three more countries adopted the Open Data Charter (Ireland, the Philippines and Panama).
The
Cabinet
Office
worked
across
government, in partnership with civil society organisations, to produce an updated Open Government Partnership UK National Action Plan, setting out 21 stretching and ambitious commitments to make government more transparent and accountable. This was launched by the Prime Minister and included a worldleading commitment to creating a publicly
accessible
registry
of
the
beneficial
owners of companies. This was an
important example of open policy-making
in action, with policy being discussed, developed
and
agreed
between
government and citizens. The Cabinet
Office
developed
and
published
the
world's
first
National
Information
Infrastructure. This contains the data held by government that is likely to have the
broadest and most significant economic and social impact if it is made available and accessible outside government.
The
Cabinet
Office
refreshed
and
redeveloped
data.gov.uk
to
provide
additional
functionality
to
the
data
catalogue
and
to
enhance
online
engagement tools and usability. There are now over 13,000 datasets published through data.gov.uk, exceeding our action to increase the number available by 20%.
13,962

Reform of the political and constitutional system Since 2010, the Cabinet Office has been taking forward the Government's political and constitutional reform agenda, which is already resulting in greater democratic accountability, transparency and economic growth. This work includes a number of activities, including the introduction of a new system of individual electoral registration. The Cabinet Office is also leading work to reform lobbying and make campaigning more transparent, by bringing before Parliament the Transparency of Lobbying, Non-Party Campaigning and Trade Union Administration Bill. At the same time, the Cabinet Office is playing a key role, together with the Scotland Office and the Scottish Government, in preparing for a legal, fair and decisive referendum on Scottish independence. The Cabinet Office is also working with departments to implement measures to promote local growth.
Actions during 2013-14
The
Cabinet
Office
fulfilled
the
commitment to carry out an end-to-end test of digital services and a dry run of automatic confirmation of all electoral registers, showing that the vast majority of current electors (78%) will have to do nothing to stay registered to vote.
The Transparency of Lobbying, Non-Party Campaigning
and
Trade
Union
Administration Bill received Royal Assent
in January 2014. It will bring greater transparency to politics, fairness to political campaigning and accuracy to trade union membership records.
The Department published a response to
the Political and Constitutional Reform Committee's Report on the Recall of MPs White Paper and draft Bill in July 2013 and is preparing for a Bill in the fourth Parliamentary session.
Since Wave 2 City Deals were launched in October
2012,
the
Government
has
launched 'Growth Deals' in response to the report by Lord Heseltine No Stone
Unturned. These deals will be concluded in summer 2014. To date, all Wave 2 City Deals identified for agreement by the end of March have been concluded.
In December 2013, the Government decided not to pursue the establishment of a House Business Committee, but remains open to the possibility of revisiting at a
later date.
Build the Big Society The Cabinet Office is leading work across government to support civil society in three ways: 1) to make it easier to set up and run a charity or voluntary organisation, 2) to get more resources into the charitable or voluntary sector and 3) to make it easier for the sector to work with the state. To achieve these objectives, the Cabinet Office is taking forward a number of programmes. These include the National Citizen Service, which encourages 16–17-year-olds to be more engaged in their communities;
a range of social action initiatives and funding programmes to encourage people to give more of their time and money; and support for the development of social finance and enterprises to solve social problems and boost economic growth.
Last year, 44% of adults took part in formal volunteering at least once. By October 2013, 372 community organisers have been trained.
## Actions During 2013-14
The
Cabinet
Office
achieved
its
commitment to launch a second round of the Social Incubator Fund. In March 2014, it was announced that match-funding had been
provided
to
six
new
start-up
incubators. The Department will help
incubators to support new social ventures,
expand their businesses and generate new employment.
The Cabinet Office held a successful G8
event on social investment in October 2013, helping to promote the UK as a global hub for social investment.
The Department launched the Centre for
Social
Action,
which
in
April
2013
committed £36 million to find and support the most effective volunteering projects to tackle persistent social problems.
Following
a
successful
Olympics,
a
commitment to support 10,000 community events during 2013-14 was achieved.
3 These two indicators use information taken from the Community Life Survey, which is an annual publication.
Promote social mobility The Cabinet Office works across government to support the Deputy Prime Minister in his activities to improve social mobility and create a fairer, more open and more mobile society. The Government's social mobility strategy entitled Opening Doors, Breaking Barriers: A strategy for social mobility sets out the Government's vision for a socially mobile country, and how it can become a reality.
Actions during 2013-14
The Cabinet Office launched the Opening
Doors campaign in November 2013 to call
on companies, large and small, to sign up
and open their doors to young people from all walks of life.
The Department worked to promote the
social mobility Business Compact. This encourages businesses to ensure that young people have fair and open access to
employment
opportunities
through
mentoring, talks and other career and skills-based activities; that they have fair access to work experience and internship opportunities; and that recruitment takes place openly and fairly.
The Department worked in partnership
with the Social Mobility Foundation to deliver
the
Civil
Service
Whitehall
Internship Scheme. This has the aim of offering
year
12
students
valuable
experience of life in government on twoweek internships, and of providing skills
and experiences that can assist in future employment.
With the Department for Work and Pensions, the Cabinet Office delivered the Civil
Service
Fast
Stream
Summer
Diversity Internship Programme. This will
give talented school leavers who are looking for an alternative to the graduate route into employment an opportunity to earn while they learn in challenging roles at the heart of government.
The Department published the latest set of social
mobility
indicators,
providing
information
on
the
progress
and
effectiveness
of
the
social
mobility
strategy.
The first cohort of 100 apprentices joined the Civil Service.
Promote UK growth
The Cabinet Office works to promote UK
growth through a number of avenues: leading the drive to improve government efficiency and effectiveness;
reforming government procurement; transforming public services; introducing new commercial models across the public sector; getting out of surplus stateowned property; being a world leader in social investment; and exploiting open data. Work to advance these areas is ongoing. Actions during 2013-14
The Cabinet Office, together with the
Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS), achieved the commitment for the Red Tape Challenge to identify 3,000 regulations to be removed or substantially reduced
during
the
lifetime
of
this
Parliament. Stripping away unnecessary bureaucracy
will
remove
those
burdensome
or
over-complicated
regulations that hamper businesses and stifle their ability to grow.
Work
continued
on
empowering
communities to grow social capital by training a new generation of community
organisers and supporting the creation of neighbourhood groups, especially in the most deprived areas.
The Department reduced inefficient and
wasteful spending on major projects through an enhanced Major Projects Authority (MPA). It published the MPA's annual report, together with the status of the projects that make up the Government Major Projects Portfolio.
There are now nearly a hundred mutuals
live and trading. Together they deliver around £1.5 billion of public services.
## Maintain A Secure And Resilient Uk And Help To Shape A Stable World
The Cabinet Office's aim is to serve the Government's national security priorities, including: supporting the effective operation of the National Security Council; preparing for and managing the coordination of the Government's response to crises; planning and managing a transformative cyber security programme for the UK; and developing a better framework for the management of national security and intelligence material in courts.
## Actions During 2013-14
A
new,
simplified
classification
of
documents
across
Whitehall
was
announced on 17 October 2013, to come into effect on 2 April 2014. The intention was
to
reduce
the
number
of
classifications from six to just three. That will improve the way government does business
and
make
it
easier
for
government to work with external partners.
The major Be Cyberstreetwise campaign
was launched. This aims to educate and change the way in which people view online safety; and to provide the public and businesses with the skills and knowledge they need to take control of their cyber security.
## At All Times, Provide Effective And Professional Support For Government Business
The National Risk Register, published in 2013, is internationally recognised as a world-leading
document
(UN
Hyogo
Framework Peer Review 2013).
In
February
2014,
the
Department
established CERT-UK, a new computer emergency
response
organisation
for
national cyber incident management, to integrate the capabilities of the Cyber- Security Information Sharing Partnership, the Cyber Security Operations Centre and the Computer Security Incident Reporting Team.
In May 2013, the Cabinet Office delivered the
successful
Second
International
London Somalia Conference, co-hosted by the Prime Minister and the President of Somalia, with the participation of 54 country and organisational heads.
The Department secured pledges for
Somalia from the international community of over $300 million.
It kicked off technical-level engagement
between international financial institutions
and new Somali institutions.
It enabled an EU–Somalia conference in
September
2013
to
agree
specific,
detailed priorities for stabilisation and
development needs up to 2016, as well as
donor funding of Euro 1.8 billion.
The Cabinet Office developed a G8 initiative on stopping payment of ransoms in terrorist kidnaps.
We have at all times supported the Government's business effectively and professionally, including through the advice and support we provide to the Prime Minister, the Deputy Prime Minister and Cabinet; through our leading role in supporting the development, coordination and implementation of domestic, economic, security, European and global policies; and through our support for ministers in delivering their legislative programme and other parliamentary business.

## Financial Review 2013-14
Parliament gives statutory authority for the use of resources and funds through the
Supply Estimates in order that the Cabinet Office may meet its expenditure and, in
turn, the Department is accountable to Parliament for the use of those resources and
funds as reported in the Statement of Parliamentary Supply.
This financial review sets out the following:

Total Managed Expenditure (TME) - a measure defined by the Treasury to cover all public expenditure (not just central government departments) comprising AME and DEL. Annually Managed Expenditure (AME) is less predictable and controllable than expenditure in DEL. It includes provisions for early departures, dilapidations, onerous contracts, revaluation of assets and depreciation on donated assets. Total AME is the sum of resource and capital AME less depreciation in AME.
Departmental Expenditure Limit (DEL) - includes expenditure which is generally controlled within departments and is managed with fixed multi-year limits set via a spending review conducted by the Treasury. DEL budget is split into resource administration, resource programme and capital. Total DEL is the sum of the resource budget DEL and capital budget DEL less depreciation in DEL.
Resource DEL Administration controls administration expenditure other than the costs of direct frontline services.
Resource DEL Programme controls expenditure directly associated with frontline activities.
Capital DEL controls spending on investments, assets and capital grants.

| Net Cash Requirement | 471,621 |
Net Resource Outturn
Net resource outturn for this period was £415.795 million, a saving of £42.994 million (9.4%)
attributable to underspends in resource DEL and resource AME. Compared to prior year, outturn has
increased by £37.458 million. See next section for explanations.
Net Capital Outturn
Net capital outturn for this period was £42.873 million, a saving of £4.830 million (10.1%). Compared
to prior year, outturn has increased by £27.819 million. See next section for explanations.
Net Cash Requirement Outturn
The Cabinet Office required cash amounting to £471.621 million to finance its activities; £45.924
million (8.9%) less than the sum approved by Parliament. The saving is attributable to underspends in
net resource and capital outturn (adjusted to remove non-cash items) and small movements in
working capital. Compared to prior year, the net cash requirement has increased by £30.708 million
due to increases in net resource and capital outturn offset by a reduction in movements in working
capital, both described above. See Note SOPS 4 Reconciliation of Net Resource Outturn to Net Cash
Requirement.

Resource DEL outturn for 2013-14 was £419.875 million, a saving of £33.814 million (7.4%) against the budget of £453.689 million approved by Parliament. Compared to prior year, outturn has increased by £6.059 million. Resource DEL is broken down by Operating Segment in Note SOPS 2.1
to the Accounts.
Saving in Administration spend against budget of £31.484 million is attributable to the following: Transactional Shared Services: £1.1 million underspend For the period 1 April to 31 October 2013, Cabinet Office was responsible for overseeing the former DWP Shared Services operation. During that period, a number of staff vacancies arose which remained unfilled due to the expected transition of the operation to the private sector. These unfilled vacancies account for the bulk of the lower than expected costs. See Note 7.1.
## Corporate Services Group Royal Mail Statutory Pension Scheme (Rmsps): £3.5 Million Underspend
The budgets for the first 3 years were set by the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) in 2011. At the time, the potential costs of managing the scheme were uncertain and it was not possible to accurately predict what the costs of the scheme would be for future years. The budget for 2013-14 was set at £8.5 million. The actual cost of running the scheme in 2013-14 was £5 million. The underspend was in part due to the number of staff required to deliver the scheme being considerably lower than estimated in 2011, because BIS had only recruited a core team before the scheme was handed over to Cabinet Office. In addition to this, running costs were also lower than had been estimated because RMSPS has moved past the set up stage and are into business as usual. See Note 5.
## Corporate Services Group Transfer Of Shares In Axelos Limited: £28.2 Million Underspend
The Cabinet Office transferred its 51 'B' Ordinary shares in AXELOS Limited to AXELOS' immediate parent, Capita Business Services Limited (CBSL) in return for consideration of £38.2 million of which £10 million was settled at the point of sale and the balance of payment was deferred over 36 months commencing January 2014. Cabinet Office budgeted for the cash receipt of £10 million and recognised in its accounts the total consideration of £38.2 million; hence creating an underspend of £28.2 million. See Note 7.
## Ring-Fenced Depreciation, Amortisation And Impairment: Total Underspend Of £3.330 Million
The ring-fenced depreciation and amortisation is £3.330 million less than originally planned; of which
£1.497 million administration and £1.833 million programme. Impairment losses related to major construction works carried out on Cabinet Office properties, determined by independent professional valuations as at 31 March 2014, were low compared to cover for uncertainty assumed for the 2013-14 Supplementary Estimate.
Impairment losses for information technology assets, through the application of published indices, or through shorter than anticipated useful lives, were low compared to the cover for uncertainty assumed for the 2013-14 Supplementary Estimate.
Year on year decrease in Administration spend of £39.812 million is attributable to
the transfer of shares in AXELOS Limited and also to the following:
There have been a number of changes to the workload which was undertaken by Constitution Group
in 2013-14 compared to the previous financial year. The overall financial impact on the change in
workload has been a reduction in costs of £1.1 million. The reduction in costs can be largely
explained by the Parliament's decision at the end of January 2013 to stop the review of constituencies
with immediate effect. This meant much lower costs in 2013-14: Staff numbers quickly reduced to just
5 by the summer of 2013 and then to 3.2 by November 2013.
The cancellation also meant that there was no further work on the Communications Strategy as all
elements of the review came to an end, apart from some final and essential "close down" activities. In
addition to this costs were also committed in 2012-13 (but not in 2013-14) for the cost of staffing the
McKay Commission which was set up in February 2012 to consider the consequences of devolution
for the House of Commons. The decrease in staff numbers would have been higher had it not been
for the Scottish Referendum where increased number were required in order to deliver Ministerial
policies and priorities; £1 million.
An increase in income within Efficiency & Reform Group is due to ISSC2 of £7.5 million and Single
Oracle Platform of £2.5 million which are new to 2013-14. Rationalisation of the Cabinet Office Estate
led to reduced costs 2013-14 within Corporate Services Group of around £3 million.
Year on year increase in voted Programme spend of £45.876 million is attributable to
the following:
Electoral Registration Transformation Programme and Individual Electoral Registration: year on year
increase in programme spend of £15 million
Individual Electoral Registration (IER) in Great Britain will modernise the way people register to vote,
help to tackle electoral fraud and improve confidence in the electoral register. In 2012-13 the Electoral
Registration Transformation Programme (ERTP) was in the early phase of policy and delivery
planning to implement IER and in 2013-14 ERTP moved into the first stages of implementation. This
led to an increase in staffing and consequently an increase in pay costs of around £2 million as the
deliverables to manage across all projects increased.
In 2013-14, IT costs increased by £2 million as the programme moved into development and delivery of the IER digital service. Each Local Authority has an electoral management system (EMS) used for storing and processing data in support of electoral registration. In 2013-14 the four EMS suppliers were contracted to the deliver the changes to local authority Electoral Management Systems. The increase in ICT expenditure also relates to a contract, which was awarded to provide a highly secure and reliable hosting platform and data transfer mechanism to support the steady state running of the service.
In 2013-14 the Cabinet Office provided local authorities with grant funding to support the transition to IER. Specifically these covered costs linked to change management in the preparation for IER. Additional funding was provided where the national funding allocation did not meet local unique circumstances: authorities were allowed to apply for additional funds if justified. In 2013-14, the Cabinet Office provided funding to all authorities in Great Britain and 5 national organisations to support the cost of activities for maximising registration as part of the transition to IER. See Note 6.1.
National Security: year on year decrease in programme spend of £15 million
As part of the Licence Fee settlement between the BBC Trust and DCMS it was agreed that BBC Monitoring services, in line with the revised funding arrangements for BBC World Service and S4C, would be funded directly from the licence fee rather than a grant from the Cabinet Office; a saving of £17.476 million. CERT UK has recently been set up and delivers a key component of the UK's cyber security strategy in facilitating the sharing of information on cyber threats in order to make UK businesses more secure in cyberspace. The partnership includes the introduction of a secure virtual 'collaboration environment'
where government and industry partners can exchange information on threats and vulnerabilities in real time. Costs amounted to £2.333 million in 2013-14. See Note 6.1.
Government Digital Service: year on year increase in programme spend of £15.6 million The Government Digital Service (GDS) programme of work increased in size and cost between 2012- 13 and 2013-14. The increases reflect the additional activities which GDS took forward during the course of the latter financial year. This most notably related to continuing to develop and improve GOV.UK (setting up GOV.UK was the main programme cost in 2012-13), to rationalise and bring over
300 ALB websites to GOV.UK and taking forward a number of exemplar projects with other Government Departments on transactional services which were aimed at improving the level of customer satisfaction, increasing the uptake of online services, saving money from reduced service and IT delivery contracts; and building capability within each department. See Notes 4 and 6.1. Government Innovation Group: year on year increase in programme spend of £26 million
The Government Innovation Group (GIG) moved forward at speed with a number of programmes coming to an end, a range of new ones starting and some of the existing programmes developing at pace. The Social Action Fund did not run in 2013-14 but social action momentum was maintained by a number of new initiatives introduced by the Centre for Social Action. The overall increase of £26 million in GIG programme expenditure during 2013-14 would not have been delivered without a contribution of over £16 million to BIG Lottery in respect of the Advice Services fund that was not made in 2012-13. The Advice Services fund aims to help the not-for-profit advice sector to adapt to changes in the way it is funded. Other significant increases in expenditure included the flag ship National Citizen Service (NCS) programme. The programme enables young people to take part in social action projects and build skills for life and work. The programme's success resulted in the number places available to young people increasing from 26,000 in 2012-13 to 42,000 in 2013-14. The programme incurred further additional expenditure by setting up a new independent Trust to lead and manage the NCS programme. See Note 6.1.
Ring-fenced Depreciation, amortisation and impairment: year on year increase of £2.381 million; of which £1.941 million administration and £0.440 million programme
Whilst lower than the cover for uncertainty assumed for the 2013-14 Supplementary Estimate, the outturn reflects reductions in values related to some building overhaul works in Cabinet Office buildings, as determined by independent professional valuations. The relatively small increase compared to 2012-13 reflects reduced useful lives for some relatively long-standing information technology assets.

Resource AME budget for 2013-14 was £5.100 million, and actual outturn was £4.080 million negative, a saving of £9.180 million (180%) against the budget approved by Parliament. In 2012-13 an outturn was recorded of £35.479 million negative.
Devaluation of PPE assets: underspend against budget of £6.768 million The values of properties at 31 March 2014, as reported by professional valuations, were higher than those that were assumed for the 2013-14 Supplementary Estimate. The Estimate included cover in case of decreases in asset values compared to those reported in 2013.
Provisions: underspend against budget of £2.769 million
The majority of the underspend relates to amounts written back under Early Departures (£0.091m), Specific Dilapidations (£1.191m) and Onerous Contracts (£2.019m), totalling £3.301m. During 2013- 14 £1,191,410 was written back of the specific dilapidations in respect of Hercules House due to the early surrender of the lease. On onerous contracts, there was a write back of £2,018,858 being no longer required; £1,660,175 of which related to County Farm. This was due to the change in expectation regarding the timing of the demolition of the buildings on site. The remaining £358,683 written back relates to Birch House, Willow House and Kings Court which generated increased revenues and incurred fewer costs.

Capital DEL budget for 2013-14 was £47.703 million, and actual outturn was £42.873 million, a saving of £4.830 million (10.1%) against the budget approved by Parliament. Compared with prior year, there has been an increase in Capital DEL expenditure of £27.819 million. Capital DEL is broken down by Operating Segment in Note SOPS 2.2 to the Accounts.
Political and Constitutional Reform - Individual Electoral Registration: underspend against budget of £4.433 million, year on year increase of £4.277 million The reason overall for the underspend can be attributed to the contingency budget incorporated into the digital budget to offset potential risks associated with various development activities scheduled to take place in financial year 2013-14. The capital budget was set in late 2010 - well ahead of the IT development and testing. Given the history of cost over-run within Government Programmes, a healthy provision (contingency) for cost increases due to the financial risk profile of a number of development activities where put in place as per HM Treasury guidelines for good practice. The fact that capital budgetary spend has been surrendered for use elsewhere, is a mark that to date, the programme's capital costs have been carefully managed and have come in below budget.
Capital spend in 2012-13 and 2013-14 relates to the delivery of the IT and Digital services which will support this business change and the steady state running of the new service. Firstly, this includes the making of digital and non-digital applications. Secondly, this includes the verification of applications using data provided by applicants against data held by the Department for Work and Pensions. Thirdly, it involves the secure transfer of data across the system. Lastly, it involves the delivery of changes to local authority Electoral Management Systems required to interface with the new service and to handle the additional data requirements. Efficiency and Reform: underspend against budget of £2.583 million
There was an underspend on the Government Digital Service (GDS) capital budget for a variety of reasons. Budgets were managed meticulously to ensure that spend was closely monitored with value for money decisions being made on all expenditure under capital projects. In practice this led to projects coming in under budget. Work on the Private facing IDAP hub originally planned for 2013-14 has been carried into the next financial year. A number of costs relating to the Cloudstore and the Performance Platforms being diagnosed as resource and not capital costs which resulted in reduced spent under the latter category. See Note SOPS2.2. Government Innovation Group: year on year increase of £11.598 million An increase of £3 million relates to the Endowment Match Challenge where the supplier was much more successful raising funds to be matched in 2013-14 compared to 2012-13. In the prior year, an amount of £8 million capital income was received representing loan repayments from the Futurebuilders Fund. See Note SOPS2.2. Corporate Services Group: year on year increase of £10.653 million
In 2013-14 investment in the Cabinet Office's London estate was greater than in 2012-13, in particular seeing the completion of several phases of ongoing building modernisation works at 70 Whitehall under plans agreed prior to 2010. This work is contributing to the overall estate strategy of increasing the capacity of core freehold buildings (for example by providing more modern open plan space) and disposing of non-core leasehold buildings. In 2013-14 the leased Hercules House and 67 Tufton Street were handed back to landlords and more teams consolidated at 70 Whitehall. In addition,
2013-14 saw investment in enhancing crisis management facilities operated by the Cabinet Office. See Note SOPS2.2.
## Public Expenditure Data
The aim of the published expenditure data tables is to present spending plans and comparable outturn data and to provide an explanation of the Cabinet Office's budgetary spending. These tables analyse spending in terms of the main spending control aggregates: the Departmental Expenditure Limit (DEL), showing resource DEL (RDEL) and capital DEL (CDEL) consumption and departmental Annually Managed Expenditure (AME). Budgets are negotiated with HM Treasury by means of Spending Reviews (SR) and the most recent are the Spending Review 2010 (SR2010) covering financial years 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14 and 2014-15 and Spending Round 2013 covering financial year 2015-16.

## Commentary On Public Expenditure Data Tables Tables 1 And 2 Total Departmental Spending And Outturn Year 2013-14 Resource Del (Rdel)
The 2010 Spending Review Settlement provides for a real reduction in non-ring fenced RDEL of 35% on the Cabinet Office 2011-12 baseline after excluding all changes in departmental responsibilities. The 2013 Spending Round Settlement provides for a real reduction in non-ring fenced RDEL of 10% on the Cabinet Office 2014-15 baseline.
## Staff Costs
There is a decrease in future years pay costs in response to the Government's deficit reduction plans.
The year on year increase in 2013-14 in wages and salaries permanent staff costs is due to increased responsibilities within the Efficiency & Reform Group (ERG) and Government Innovation Group (GIG) which led to the creation of new teams.
## Efficiency & Reform Group
Within ERG there have been numerous new projects/teams, including Crown Hosting, Debt Market Integrator, Shared Services Centre 2, Single Operating Platform, Civil Service HR, ERG HR Team, Commercial Reform Team and the Complex Transactions Team.
Also within ERG, the Government Digital Service (GDS) staff numbers and associated costs increased to take into account the additional activities which GDS took forward during the course of the latter financial year. This most notably related to continuing to develop and improve GOV.UK (setting up GOV.UK was the main staff cost in 2012-13), to rationalise and bring over 300 ALB websites to GOV.UK and taking forward a number of exemplar projects with other Government Departments on transactional services which were aimed at improving the level of customer satisfaction, increasing the uptake of online services, saving money from reduced service and IT
delivery contracts; and building capability within each department.
## Government Innovation Group
Within the Government Innovation Group new teams have been created during 2013-14, such as the Data Sharing Public Sector Partnership & Contestable Policy. Outturn may be reconciled to staff costs at Note 4 to the Accounts by adding the salaries and pensions of the UK Members of the European Parliament and by adding utilisation of early departures costs (whereby cash disbursement is a charge against RDEL and release of the provision is a benefit to RAME): both are reported in Note SOPS3.
## Purchase Of Goods And Services And Income From Sales Of Goods And Services Political And Constitutional Reform - Consolidated Fund Standing Services
SR2010 settlement includes funding for the boundary review and in 2014-15 funding for the introduction of Individual Electoral Registration and funding for elections to the European Parliament. In 2009-10 the 2009 European Parliamentary elections were budgeted at £95.3 million, in 2010-11 the
2010 UK Parliamentary Elections for England and Wales were budgeted at £102.2 million and in 2014-15 the 2014 European Parliamentary elections are budgeted at £119.1 million.
## Current Grants And Subsidies
SR2010 settlement includes funding for the voluntary sector and for the Electoral Registration Transformation Programme. See Note 6 to the Accounts which describes the purpose of the grant programmes. Government Innovation Group The Government Innovation Group is charged with implementing the Government's commitment to the Big Society and the settlement provides for the Community First Fund, support for volunteering, capacity building, community organisers and support for mutuals. The pilot phase of the National Citizen Service was implemented during 2011-12 and 2012-13. Key programmes have included National Citizen Service, Strategic Partners Programme, Social Action, Community Organisers, Community First, Structural Support and Technical Assistance and Advice Services Fund. Funding includes £100 million in 2013-14 and £140 million in 2014-15 for the National Citizen Service programme and £16.8 million in 2014-15 for "Help for Not-for-Profit organisations in the Third Sector".
In 2015-16 SR2013 provides £140 million for the National Citizen Service and £56 million for other civil society programmes.
Rentals Rentals include offices at 1 Horse Guards Road and a PFI service charge in respect of Sunningdale Park. See Note 5 to the Accounts.
During 2012-13 the Cabinet Office paid lease surrender premiums totalling £16.350 million to secure early exit from leasehold properties at 1 Palace Street and 67 Tufton Street in order to realise future value for money savings. The Cabinet Office assumed responsibility for the lease of 1 Palace Street from the Department for International Development who moved to cheaper premises at 22-26
Whitehall which were gifted to them by the Cabinet Office. By incurring a charge of £13.650 million, the Cabinet Office secured early exit from the lease in December 2013 with the prospect of achieving overall savings of £62.5 million which include the avoidance of future rental payments to September
2020.
Depreciation and impairment Depreciation is a ring-fenced budget and may not be re-deployed. It includes depreciation and impairment caused by loss or damage to assets resulting from normal business operations, abandonment of assets under construction or over-specification of assets. Depreciation arises mainly on owned buildings and amortisation mainly on websites. See Notes 5 and 6 to the Accounts.
## Other Resource This Includes Income From Royalties And Dividends. See Note 7 To The Accounts. Resource Ame (Rame)
Resource AME comprises the take up of new provisions and the release of provisions at the point of cash utilisation for both dilapidations on leasehold properties and onerous contract on vacant leasehold properties, staff early departures, depreciation on donated assets and impairments against property assets and loans and investment properties gains/loss on changes in fair value.
Other resource During 2012-13 Admiralty Arch became vacant and was recognised as an investment property at fair value of £60 million resulting in a gain on change in fair value of £32.003 million. See Note 9 to the Accounts.
Capital DEL (CDEL) The 2010 Spending Review Settlement provides for a real reduction of 28% on the Department's 2011-12 baseline. The Public Expenditure Committee agreed the following should be funded within this capital settlement: Cabinet Office Estate Rationalisation, Constitutional Reform - Individual Electoral Registration, Social Action and Community First. Spending Round 2013 allows £14.6 million for the upkeep of estates and crisis facilities and future ICT.
Capital grants
Government Innovation Group Expenditure from 2007-08 to 2010-11 represents capital grants mainly to Futurebuilders England Limited to deliver the Futurebuilders programme which came to an end on 31 March 2011. During 2012-13 Futurebuilders England Limited returned capital income of £8 million to the Cabinet Office representing the repayment of loans by investees; see Notes 6 and 25 to the Accounts. Since 2011- 12 capital grants have been made to Community First Endowment Match Challenge programme and in 2013-14 amounted to £10.880 million. See Note 6 to the Accounts. Political and Constitutional Reform During 2013-14 £4.917 million capital expenditure was incurred on Individual Electoral Registration.
SR2010 provided the Constitutional Reform Group the opportunity to set out its plans to bring forward the introduction of Individual Electoral Registration. Individual Electoral Register will require each member of the household to register, and be responsible for, their own entry on the register which will subsequently be checked against other sources of public data to ensure that the electoral register is trusted and secure. Individual Electoral Registration should furthermore improve accuracy of the register, allow people to register in different ways and will allow the government to take steps to address the completeness of the register.
Purchase of assets
Corporate Services Group In 2013-14 spend on capital relates to investment in the Cabinet Office's London estate. See previous section on outturn for a further explanation. See Notes 8 and 10 to the Accounts.
Other capital and income from sale of assets In 2012-13 the Minister for the Cabinet Office transferred all rights and obligations under the freehold and associated agreements for 22/26 Whitehall, London SW1A 2WH to The Secretary of State for International Development (DFID). The fair value of property at the date of transfer was £44.145 million on the assumption that the property was sold as part of the continuing enterpriser in occupation with vacant possession. See Note 20 to the Accounts.
Table 3 Capital Employed for the Cabinet Office
Property, plant and equipment Overall carrying values increased from March 2013 to March 2014 by £16 million of which £25 million in additions, £6 million impairment, £2 million revaluations and £5 million depreciation. A relatively small upwards valuation of non-current assets in 2013-14 of just under £2 million overall (around 1% of the total carrying value) is predominantly the result of independent professional valuations of freehold land and buildings. See outturn in previous section, and Note 8.1 to the Accounts. Forecasts assume that depreciation in 2014-15 and 2015-16 will remain at similar levels to 2013-14. Capital additions in 2014-15 and in 2015-16 reflect the capital requirement approved by Parliament in the Main Estimate 2014-15 and the capital budget within the Spending Round 2013, respectively.
Investments in associates This represents the Cabinet Office's share of its associates net assets based on their forecast profits. The Department holds the following equity shareholdings; see Note 17 to the Accounts:
| Associate | Equity shareholding % |
|-----------------------------------|--------------------------|
| MyCSP Limited | 35 |
| Shared Services Connected Limited | 25 |
| AXELOS Limited | 49 |
| Behavioural Insights Team Limited | 35 |
Other financial assets
Additional loans are expected to be made to Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP which invests in social enterprises. See Note 19 to the Accounts.
Assets held for sale Admiralty Arch is expected to be sold on a long-leasehold during 2013-14. See Notes 9 and 20 to the Accounts.
Returning Officers' Expenses Claims from Returning Officers relating to UK Parliamentary By-elections and 2014 European Parliamentary Elections are expected to be settled by 31 March 2015 and claims relating to 2015 UK General Election by 31 March 2016. See Notes 21, 22 and 23 to the Accounts.
Deferred consideration Cabinet Office transferred its 51 'B' Ordinary shares in AXELOS Limited to AXELOS' immediate parent, Capita Business Services Limited (CBSL) in return for consideration of £38.2 million. CBSL has deferred payment of £25.850 million to be settled in 33 equal monthly instalments between April 2014 and December 2016. See Note 21 to the Accounts.
Non-current liabilities provisions There are no new significant provisions anticipated for 2014-15 or 2015-16. Existing provisions will be utilised as shown within the analysis of expected timing of cash flows as set out at Note 24 to the Accounts. It is assumed that all other balances will remain at levels similar to 2013-14.
## Table 4 Administration Budget
Administration budgets help drive economy and efficiency and are controlled to ensure that as much money as practicable is available for front-line services and programmes. The 2010 Spending Review Settlement provides for a real reduction of 33% in the administration budget excluding depreciation over the four years on the 2010-11 baseline. The 2013 Spending Round Settlement provides for a real reduction of 10% in the administration budget excluding depreciation on the 2014-15 baseline. The decrease of £14.775 million in 2011-12 outturn administration costs compared to 2010-11 is largely due to efficiency savings across the Department, a reduction in the general workforce which took place during 2010-11 and a reclassification from administration to programme of the expenditure of the Civil Service Capabilities and Public Services Reform Groups upon their transfer into the Efficiency and Reform Group. 2013-14 outturn includes income of £38.2 million upon sale of shares in Axelos Limited to Capita Business Services Limited; see previous section on outturn.
In 2014-15 two new operating segments have been created for Civil Service Capability and Pensions. Civil Service Capability includes Civil Service Human Resources and Civil Service Reform. Civil Service Human Resources aims to alter the way in which the Civil Service delivers HR services crossgovernment. Civil Service Reform will equip a smaller Civil Service to meet future challenges.
Pensions includes the Royal Mail Statutory Pension Scheme, and also the Principal Civil Service Pension Scheme (PCSPS) whose costs are met through income from a charge on Civil Superannuation employer pension contributions and directly from employers who participate in the PCSPS.
Table 5 Staff numbers
These tables show the actual number of staff as at 31 March in each year up to 2013-14 and projected staffing for 2014-15. Staff are categorised as permanent, casual and special adviser. By contrast, Note 4 to the Accounts shows headcount expressed as the average number of whole-time equivalent persons employed and includes ministers, temporary staff and commissioners.
Civil Service Full Time Equivalent In 2012-13 there were significant number of leavers who had previously worked for National School of Government and Central Office of Information. In 2013-14, overall there is a little change compared to 2012-13. 27 staff working in the Civil Service HR unit and 6 staff working in the Functional Leadership team transferred from the Department for Communities and Local Government with these functions into the Cabinet Office. During the course of the year, 6 staff working in the SWIRL Unit, part of the Efficiency and Reform Group, and 15 staff in the Behavioural Insights Team, part of the Government Innovation Group, transferred out of the Cabinet Office to the Private Sector under TUPE arrangements. Projected staff numbers for 2014-15 are based on current business planning assumptions.
Casuals In 2013-14 an increasing number of projects took place around GOV.UK, the rationalisation of 300 arm's length body websites to GOV.UK and as part of the wider transformation programme which is aimed at delivering public services online or by other digital means. A number of these projects were carried out by interim staff, particularly where the length of the project was 12 months or less, or where specialist skills were required. This work necessitated an increase in the number of casual staff. Given the short term nature of the projects involved and the specialist skills required the use of casual staff represented the most cost effective solution to their successful delivery.
Tables 6 to 8 Country and Regional Analysis tables
The Country and Regional Analysis table is an analysis of public expenditure by country, region and function. Data in this release are National Statistics for all years. This is purely a statistical exercise and plays no part in resource allocation. Most public spending is planned to benefit categories of individuals and enterprises irrespective of location. The regional analyses presented show where the individuals and enterprises that benefited from public spending were located. It does not mean that all such spending was planned to benefit a particular region, because only a minority of public spending is planned on a regional basis. Public expenditure is planned and controlled on a departmental basis. The tables present statistical analyses of public expenditure by country, region and function and present the spending attributed to the English regions alongside the spending attributed to Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Tables 6, 7 and 8 show analyses of the Department's spending by country and region, and by function. The data presented in these tables are consistent with the country and regional analyses (CRA) published by HM Treasury in the November 2013 release.
The figures were largely taken from the Online System for Central Accounting and Reporting
(**OSCAR**) during the summer of 2013 and the regional distributions were completed by the following autumn (taking on board any revisions to departmental totals). Please note that totals may not sum due to rounding.
The analyses are set within the overall framework of Total Expenditure on Services (TES). TES
broadly represents the current and capital expenditure of the public sector, with some differences from the national accounts measure Total Managed Expenditure.
The tables show the central government and public corporation elements of TES. They include current and capital spending by the Department and its NDPBs, and public corporations' capital expenditure, but do not include capital finance to public corporations. They do not include payments to local authorities or local authorities own expenditure. TES is a cash equivalent measure of public spending. The tables do not include depreciation, cost of capital charges, or movements in provisions that are in departmental budgets. They do include pay, procurement, capital expenditure, and grants and subsidies to individuals and private sector enterprises. Further information on TES can be found in Appendix E of PESA 2013. The data feature both identifiable and non-identifiable spending: 1.
Identifiable expenditure on services - which is capable of being analysed as being for the benefit of individual countries and regions. 2.
Expenditure that is incurred for the benefit of the UK as a whole and cannot be disseminated by individual country or region is considered to be non-identifiable. Across government, most expenditure is not planned or allocated on a regional basis. Social security payments, for example, are paid to eligible individuals irrespective of where they live. Expenditure on other programmes is allocated by looking at how all the projects across the Department's area of responsibility, usually England, compare. So the analyses show the regional outcome of spending decisions that on the whole have not been made primarily on a regional basis. The functional analyses of spending in Table 8 are based on the United Nations Classification of the Functions of Government (COFOG), the international standard. The presentations of spending by function are consistent with those used in Chapter A of the CRA November 2013 release. These are not the same as the strategic priorities shown elsewhere in the report.

## Governance Performance Report By Lord Browne, The Lead Non-Executive Director
The role of government is changing. It is increasingly becoming a commissioning body, buying and managing a range of complex services and commercial relationships, with a greater focus on value for money. As a result, it needs a Civil Service with new and enhanced skills. The Cabinet Office is at the forefront of the change programme required to deliver this shift.
Board effectiveness
The Board met seven times during the 2013-14 financial year. Board membership has remained stable, with the departure of just one minister.
The evidence from the latest Cabinet Office board effectiveness evaluation, incorporating a peer review by Sara Weller (lead non-executive at the Department for Communities and Local Government), demonstrated that most Board members believe the Board is operating more effectively, compared to 12 months ago.
Following recommendations made in last year's Board evaluation, the flow of information between Board members and the Department's management has improved, and the Board agendas are now becoming more focused. The quality of Board meetings has also been improved by greater engagement between the Board chair and non-executives outside formal Board meetings. Rona Fairhead chairs the Department's highly effective Audit and Risk Committee, and non-executives continue to contribute to committees such as the Senior Pay and Talent Committee.
Strategic clarity
## Compared To Other Government Departments, The Cabinet Office Has A Remit Of Unusual Breadth And Depth, Which Changes Regularly To Reflect The Evolution Of Government And Civil Service Priorities. It Is Therefore Essential For The Department Continually To Clarify Its Strategic Purpose. Commercial Sense
A number of the recommendations in my review of major project leadership, 'Getting a Grip' (March 2013), have been implemented. The appointment of a new Chief Executive, John Manzoni, will bring fresh impetus to these important reforms. The Cabinet Office has also launched a fully integrated Crown Commercial Service (CCS), which centralises responsibility for procurement, and which will improve supplier management as a result.
## Talented People
The Board's Senior Pay and Talent Committee has provided good strategic input into the performance and talent management of senior civil servants (SCS). Succession plans have improved, particularly at Director General level, where 93% of roles have succession plans in place. There should, however, be more discussion of the Department's wider talent management strategy, covering both people and departmental capability. This could happen in the Board itself or in a subcommittee chaired by a non-executive.
Results focus The Board has maintained its focus on the link between strategy and results. An example was the analysis of risk, resources and capabilities submitted to the Board to inform its discussions about the creation of the CCS. This enabled the Board to satisfy itself that these key issues had been properly considered by the departmental management team.
Management information
## The Improvements I Highlighted Last Year Have Continued, With Management Information Now Better Reflecting The Board'S Need To Review The Progress Of Key Programmes And Strategic Goals. The Cabinet Office Has Also Maintained Its Focus On Improving Management Information Across Government, By Reviewing The Data Being Collected, Developing A Plan To Streamline Quarterly Data Summaries (Qds) And Producing A 'Board Reporting' Booklet To Disseminate Best Practice Across Government.

## Our New Governance Structure
Historically, the Executive Management Committee (EMC) - the top team of managers running the Department - has looked at the whole range of issues - large and small - affecting the Cabinet Office. As the scope and complexity of the Cabinet Office work continues to grow, there is now a need to refocus the way we manage the Department at a tactical and strategic level. The changes made:
The new core EMC group will focus on the
decisions that need to be made at a
strategic level. This group is chaired by
Richard Heaton, and other members are Sue Gray, Stephen Kelly, Olly Robbins,
Paul Maltby, Helen Stephenson, Will
Cavendish, Bruce Mann, Mel Steel, Stefan Czerniawski, Alex Aiken, Hugh Powell,
Melanie Dawes and Chris Martin.
There are a number of sub-committees
(led by EMC members or other senior
leaders) with delegated authority to make decisions in particular areas. If these decisions are of strategic importance to the Cabinet Office, they will be referred to the EMC.
.
## Governance Statement
There are four sub-committees - two of which are new. These are:
the
new
People
and
Performance
Committee - focusing on pay, talent and
performance decisions below SCS
the new Environment and The Way We Work Committee - focused on improving
the
tools
we
use,
our
working
environment
and
the
communications/engagement decisions
the Resourcing Panel - this reviews
additional
headcount
and
retention
requirements across the Cabinet Office
the Investment and Programme Review Committee
-
advising
on
financial
investment decisions and associated risks.
The EMC and its sub-committees work in
conjunction with a number of other boards
and committees with a key role across the Department, including the Cabinet Office Board, the Approvals Board, and the Senior Pay and Talent Committee (SPTC).
## The New Governance Arrangements Introduction
The Cabinet Office's Governance Statement sets out the governance structures, and the internal control and risk management procedures that have operated within the Cabinet Office during the financial year 2013- 14 and up to the date of approval of the Annual Report and Accounts, and is in accordance with the HM Treasury guidance.
Ministerial responsibilities
achieved through the establishment in the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) of a new unfunded pension scheme - the Royal Mail Statutory Pension Scheme
(RMSPS). Concerns about the size of the RMSPS management and the resilience of a small management team led to a review of where the scheme would best sit within government. The review concluded that the future of the scheme and its membership would be best served by moving the scheme to the Cabinet Office, to be run alongside the Principal Civil Service Pension Scheme (PCSPS). Consequently, from 1 April 2013, the Cabinet Office assumed responsibility for the scheme's management and administration.
Youth policy Ministers lead departments and are responsible for (and accountable to Parliament for)
the actions and policies of their departments. Boards, within the strategic framework set by the minister, support the head of the Department by advising ministers and taking ownership of the Department's performance. Ministers and board members are responsible for corporate governance, which defines the rights and responsibilities of different stakeholders, determines rules and procedures for making decisions, and includes the process through which the Department's objectives are set and monitored.
'Machinery of government'
transfers of function into the Cabinet Office
During the financial year 2013-14 the following changes in ministerial responsibilities resulted from machinery of government transfers of function.
Royal Mail Statutory Pension Scheme With effect from 1 April 2012 and under the provisions of the Postal Services Act 2011, the Government assumed responsibility for both the Royal Mail Pension Plan deficit and the majority of the plan's liabilities. This was On 3 July 2013, a 'machinery of government'
change was announced, whereby crosscutting responsibilities for youth policy transferred from the Department for Education to the Cabinet Office, which now leads for the government on:
cross-government youth strategy and policy coordination; management of the statutory duty on Local Authorities for youth provision in their areas; and strategic relationship management with young people and youth sector organisations on policy development. Other changes
-
transactional shared services As a result of various investigations and recommendations relating to the sharing of back-office functions across government, there was an initiative to set up a second Independent Shared Service Centre (ISSC2). The business case demonstrated that the best value-for-money delivery model for ISSC2 would be an associate partnership between government and the private sector.
a consolidation of some existing shared service centres in DWP, the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) and the Environment Agency. Some services from UK Shared Business Services Ltd (UK SBS) are expected to join by 2015. SSCL will deliver payroll, huan resources, finance and procurement services to the existing customers of these centres, with further government departments, agencies and public bodies expected to join in due course.
AXELOS Limited
An innovative deal to create the first associate business based on government intellectual property was announced on 23 April by the Minister for the Cabinet Office. The new company owns and trades on the 'Best Management Practice' portfolio of professional standards developed by the Civil Service.
Behavioural Insights Team Limited
On 4 February 2014, the Cabinet Office's Behavioural Insights Team joined with innovation charity National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts (Nesta) to create a new associate company that will apply insights from behavioural sciences and help the Government save millions of pounds for the taxpayer by tackling public policy problems.
Following the publication of the Next Generation Shared Services Strategy in December 2012, the Department for Work and Pensions
(DWP)
Shared Services was identified as a founding member of the ISSC2 programme. As a first step towards this, the accountability for the current DWP Shared Service Centre (SSC) transferred on 1 April 2013 to the Cabinet Office until 31 October, after which date the service was delivered by Shared Services Connected Limited, an associate company.
Associates
Shared Services Connected Limited (SSCL) On 1 November The Minister for the Cabinet Office announced that Steria Limited had been appointed as the private sector partner in a new associate company, Shared Services Connected Limited (SSCL), to run the second of two new Independent Shared Services Centres.
The associate will harness commercial expertise to deliver government back-office functions more efficiently. The project is a key example of driving innovation in government commercial models - which are key parts of the Civil Service Reform Plan. The new company, SSCL, was initially formed from

to focus its discussions on areas where the Non-Executive Board Members can add value. The Board also agreed that Non-Executive Board Members were welcome to identify issues or areas in which they were willing to be involved. Dame Barbara Stocking joined the Challenge Group for the Triennial Review of the Big Lottery Fund, a Cabinet Officesponsored Arm's length body. The review was published on the 11th June 2014. Rona Fairhead and Ian Davis joined a small group of Non-Executive Board Members in a discussion on functional leadership. The Minister for the Cabinet Office also held regular meetings with the Non-Executive Board Members. In response to a request from Non-Executive Board Members, the Board reviewed the criteria used in deciding which elements of service delivery might provide opportunities for the design and implementation of alternative delivery models such as mutualisation. A
discussion on public service reform identified digital capability as a key issue, so the Board held a follow-up meeting to review progress on the 25 digital exemplar projects. The Board also discussed Lord Browne's review of the Major Projects Authority and the Government's response. Board effectiveness evaluations are conducted annually and the next evaluation was conducted in the first half of 2014. During the year, the Board's agenda included regular updates from the Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee, and the Board discussed risks associated with people issues. The Audit and Risk Committee also reviewed the Electoral Registration Transformation Programme, at the Board's request, in advance of a further Board discussion. A regular horizon-scanning slot provided an opportunity for Board members to be updated on recent developments and the priorities of key Board members and stakeholders.
Work of the Cabinet Office Board The Cabinet Office Board forms the collective strategic and operational leadership of the Department, bringing together its Ministerial and Civil Service leaders with senior nonexecutives from outside government. A Board effectiveness evaluation, led by Lord Browne, was conducted on his behalf by Internal Audit and discussed at the Board meeting in April 2013. The evaluation found that the Board's composition gave it great strength and provided a forum and culture in which challenge was encouraged and valued: the contribution of Non-Executive Board Members was highly regarded. The Audit and Risk Committee was working well, and risk management processes were considered to be effective. The evaluation concluded that there had been a marked improvement in the operation of, and support to, the Board, including better agenda setting, performance reporting and minutes. Further improvements were needed in Board papers, in raising Non-
Executive Board Members' awareness of the Department's arm's length bodies, and in providing Non-Executive Board Members both with updates on key matters between Board meetings and with more opportunities for engagement.
In response to the evaluation findings, the template for Board papers was revised and updates on the activities of Arm's length bodies were provided to Board members. The Board discussed the Department's plans for the creation of a new Arm's length body, the Crown Commercial Service, which will merge the Government Procurement Service (an existing Arm's length body), the Department's commercial function, and common goods and services procurement and commercial management into one organisation. Notes celebrating departmental successes and including information about the Department's plans are now circulated to Non-Executive Board Members weekly, providing an overview of the work of the entire Cabinet Office. Lord Browne continues to be involved in developing agendas for each meeting, enabling the Board The Department's performance was discussed through the year. The Board discussed the Quarterly Data Summary (QDS) Board Pack and agreed that selected highlights of the QDS should be introduced into the performance report. The Board also discussed plans for the Spending Round and the Department's Business plan. As part of its programme of scrutinising new projects with a value of more than £5 million, the Board considered plans for the establishment of a new independent management body for the National Citizen Service. The Board reviewed the Permanent Secretary's plans to identify and address areas of potential departmental improvement and Non-Executive Board Members provided valuable external challenge and input, suggesting a greater focus on people, skills and talent, IT, governance and relationships with departments. As well as reviewing progress on delivering efficiency savings, the Board also discussed Civil Service reform, the reform of public bodies and cyber security.

Compliance with the Corporate Governance Code Departments are expected to apply the principles set out in Corporate Governance in Central Government Departments: Code of good practice 2011, unless good governance can be achieved by other means. They are also required to identify and explain areas where they have departed from the Code. The Cabinet Office is fully compliant with the principles of the Code.
Cabinet Office Audit and Risk Committee
Purpose The Cabinet Office Audit and Risk Committee (COARC) is a Board committee, supporting the Cabinet Office Board and Principal Accounting Officer by providing an independent view of the Department's risk control and corporate governance arrangements, and assessing the comprehensiveness, reliability and integrity of those assurances. COARC was chaired by Barbara Stocking until 22 April 2013, after which date Rona Fairhead resumed the role of Chair. The Corporate Governance Code requires COARC members' attendances to be published in the Cabinet Office Annual Report and Accounts. Work of the Audit and Risk Committee
The Cabinet Office Audit and Risk Committee's remit covers the Cabinet Office:
Civil Superannuation, the Royal Mail Statutory Pension Scheme and Returning Officers'
Expenses for England and Wales. Separate Accounts are published for each of these, and each is audited separately, but all four have the same Principal Accounting Officer. During the year the Committee's work was divided between audit and assurance work, and risk review. Its audit and assurance work included reviewing all the sets of accounts mentioned above, and providing assurance to the Accounting Officer that the accounts could properly be signed by him. Following the qualification of the Cabinet Office: Civil Superannuation Accounts 2011-12 on the basis that some service and salary documentary evidence (required to validate the accuracy of some pension awards) could not be made available within the statutory timescales for publishing the accounts, the Committee reviewed the situation on an ongoing basis, receiving regular reports from management on the development and implementation of a Records Improvement Action Plan. The 2012-13 financial statements were certified with an unqualified audit opinion, without modification, and the accounts for 2012-13 were laid before Parliament in accordance with HM Treasury requirements. The Committee's risk work programme included reviews of a number of the Department's strategic and operational risks, but it also undertook rigorous scrutiny of new activities that the Department is undertaking to ensure that there was a good understanding of potential risks, and that suitable mitigations were in place. An example of this was its review of the plans for the vesting of the Independent ISSC2 operation, seeking and receiving assurance that the lessons learnt from the MyCivil Service Pension programme had been applied to the ISSC2 transformation programme.
As a result of that work, the Committee asked for an audit and risk sub-committee, chaired by Christine Daws, to provide independent oversight of the operation of ISSC2, pending clarification of the longer-term role of such a sub-committee, reporting back to the Audit and Risk Committee on a regular basis. The Subcommittee provided advice and scrutiny of the proposal, especially on associated risks and how they could be mitigated. Shared Services Connected Limited was vested at the end of October. The Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee, and the Chair of the sub-Committee, both have regular dialogue and meetings with the Head of Internal Audit and the Deputy Finance Director to discuss key areas of governance in relation to the Committee's agenda. The Committee also regularly reviews the internal audit work programme.

Independent Non-Executive Membership The role of the Non-Executive Members of the Board is set out in 'Enhanced Departmental Boards: Protocol' published on the Cabinet Office website. The Non-Executive Board Members (NEBM) exercise their role through influence and advice, supporting as well as challenging the executive.
They advise on performance
(including agreeing key performance indicators), operational issues (including the operational/delivery implications of policy proposals) and effective management of the Department.
They also provide support, guidance and challenge on the progress and implementation of the operational business plan, and in relation to recruiting, appraising and ensuring appropriate succession planning of senior executives. They form the committee responsible for audit and risk. To share best practice and to ensure that departments learn from the successes and failures of comparable organisations, they regularly meet with other non-executives across government. Executive committees
Executive Management Committee The Executive Management Committee (EMC) is responsible for the executive management of the Department within the strategic framework established by ministers and the Cabinet Office Board. The EMC is responsible for supporting the Cabinet Office Board by considering detailed issues concerning the management of the Department, including:
planning
budgeting
performance
people
corporate services.
The EMC is chaired by Richard Heaton, Permanent Secretary for the Cabinet Office, First Parliamentary Counsel and Accounting Officer.
Investment and Programme Review Committee The Investment and Programme Review Committee (IPRC) supports the Accounting Officer in ensuring the effective design, control, accountability, value for money and evaluation of major Cabinet Office investments, programmes and projects.
Constituted in November 2013, the IPRC reviews the Department's significant investments, main programmes and projects with a view to improving their governance, effectiveness, value for money and deliverability. To assure the Accounting Officer that strategic risks are being handled appropriately, the IPRC may suggest that the Accounting Officer should refer projects to the Cabinet Office Audit and Risk Committee or the Cabinet Office Board for strategic advice, before advising on approval decisions.
The IPRC was initially chaired by Richard Heaton. Following a review of executive governance arrangements (see below), it will be chaired by Bill Crothers, Director General, Commercial and the Government's Chief Procurement Officer.
Changes to Executive Governance Arrangements
At the end of the financial year, Richard Heaton conducted a review of executive governance arrangements, including the establishment of two new sub-committees of the Executive Management Committee. The two new sub-committees are The Performance and Pay Committee, which Richard Heaton chairs, and the Environment and The Way We Work Committee, which is chaired by Paul Maltby, joint Director of the Government Innovation Group. Bill Crothers, Director General, Commercial, and the Government's Chief Procurement Officer, became the Chair of the IPRC at the same point. The new arrangements came into effect in April 2014.
## Review Of Effectiveness Work Of Internal Audit
The Department's internal audit service is provided under a Service Level Agreement by the joint shared internal audit service- the Cross Departmental Audit Services (XDIAS). XDIAS provides internal audit and assurance services to eight central government departments and a range of arm's length bodies. XDIAS activity for the year included work to provide assurance in the following areas of risk:
Planning and resource allocation
Totemic policies and programmes
Generating and reporting of savings
Requirements on and relationships
with Other Government Departments
Civil contingencies
Elections
Regularity and Propriety and value for
money
Internal Audit opinion
XDIAS works in accordance with Government Internal Audit Standards. Its work is informed by its analysis of the risks to which the Department is exposed and the annual audit plan is based on that analysis. The plans are discussed and endorsed by COARC and then agreed with the Accounting Officer. The Head of Internal Audit (HIA) annually provides an independent opinion on the adequacy and effectiveness of the Department's governance, risk and control arrangements. The HIA's opinion for 2013-14 is that a *partial assurance* opinion can be placed on the Department's arrangements for governance, risk and control arrangements. The Internal Audit opinion did not identify any control weaknesses requiring disclosure in this Governance statement. But it did identify that the Cabinet Office should be cognisant of the potential need to continue to upgrade management controls and keep governance arrangements under review, in response to the increasing levels of risk to which it is exposed, for example due to its role as a provider of services.

## Risk Management Risk Assurance
HM Treasury mandate that internal audit must give a year end assurance on the effectiveness of a department's Governance, Risk and Control arrangements. This Internal Audit assurance is one of the key sources of evidence underpinning the Accounting Officer's Governance Statement. The Internal Audit assurance is based on internal audit work performed over the course of the year, combined with knowledge of the governance, risk and control framework gained through attendance at meetings and discussions with senior management. Key Strategic Risks A strategic risk register for the Cabinet Office was completed in 12-13. These risks are reviewed on a rolling basis, and a number of them were reviewed by COARC in 13-14.
## Risk
Resourcing is a key strategic risk. The IA reviews of Flexible Resourcing, Recruitment and Training all found a lack of formalised risk management.
## Mitigation
High level of engagement of senior staff with resourcing through the annual resource planning process and the in-year Resourcing Panel. This brings Senior Officials insights on risk to bear in decision-making. 2013-14 saw the submission to the Resourcing Panel of the first Workforce Planning quarterly review, improved engagement by Management Unit leadership with workforce planning and better Management Information from the workforce Resource Management system.
## Group-Level Risks
There has been sound assurance over the quality of Group-level risk management in the Cabinet Office. This comprises review and challenge of the Corporate Management Responsibilities Statements on risk management and provision of detailed guidance on risk management processes on Cabweb. Risks can be escalated through the monthly meeting with the Finance Director and regular liaison of Finance with risk managers. The Risk Managers Network met twice in
2013-14 and will be moving to quarterly. The Network is intended to drive up the quality and consistency of Group–level risk management. However, we noted continuing inconsistency in risk management across the Cabinet Office.
Project-level Key Risks
## Risk 1
There was no formal risk management process in the Election Administration Unit but a good implicit awareness of risk around the Funding review. More formal risk mitigation planning would provide assurance that major risks are being countered.
## Risk 2
On Cities Deals the IA follow up review showed that there is now a comprehensive risk management process in place, with good risk mitigation planning in place and regular update/reporting activity. However, the risks for the transition to Local Growth Deals, including the effect on conclusion and ongoing monitoring of Cities Deals, need to be assessed.
## Risk 3
Professional Head of Intelligence Analysis Programme Risks should be fully captured and monitored as part of the Joint Intelligence Operations (JIO) Risk Register.
## Risk 4
There is no formal risk management process in Departmental Engagement Units but a good implicit awareness of risk. Risk was seen as focussed on ensuring the right staff - in terms of grade and capability - were delivering engagement activities and that they sound relationship management was in place.
Assurance would be strengthened by a more formal approach in each team, which would provide focus on risk mitigation planning.
## Risk 5
With regard to civil contingencies strong controls for the management of near and long term disruptive challenges are in place along with incident response mechanisms. Whilst the assessment of individual risks follows a robust method, it was unclear whether a comparative assessment is undertaken to ensure the application of the methodology provides a fair representation of national long and medium term risks. In addition, opportunities to assess risks with an impact greater than 5 years, aggregated or concurrent risks are limited by the current methodology.
Assurance over Risk During the year the Audit and Risk Committee reviewed the three types of risks faced by the Department
-
strategic risks, risks to programmes and projects, and day-to-day operational risks in business units - and chose to review some of the strategic risks and risks arising from major programmes and projects and measures in hand to manage them. These reviews included risks around development and deployment of human resources, operating with integrity, the Electoral Registration Transformation Programme, Next Generation Shared Services and progress in implementing data improvement plans with MyCSP, with risk appetite considered as part of each discussion.
The Cabinet Office Board reviewed risks associated with major programmes and the position on the management of major strategic risks at each of its meetings. All Groups within the Cabinet Office are required to have in place a structured approach to managing risks. This includes maintaining risk registers and risk escalation, mitigation and communication processes.
Guidance and example templates for risk registers are published on the Department's intranet. At regular intervals, assurance is sought from each Group that risk management requirements are being complied with; this is supported by internal reviews of processes and practice. During the year guidance and an updated risk register template were issued to require all Groups to include two mandatory risks, Business Continuity and Resources, in their Group level risk registers. Compliance with this new requirement is being monitored centrally. One review of these risks and concluded that the risks were being well managed across the organisation.
The Risk Managers' Network is now well established and members have decided to increase the frequency of the meetings from two each year to four to further enhance networking opportunities and information exchange between Risk Managers. A regular feature of the meetings is a practical exercise and discussion on common issues.
Risk management of Shared Services There have been a significant number of changes in Accounting Officer responsibility within the Cabinet Office during 2013-14, requiring new governance arrangements to be put in place (for example the Shared Services Sub-Committee, referred to above). The Internal Audit opinion identified that the Cabinet Office took some time to develop and implement these arrangements, but that these are now working effectively.
ISSC1 On the 19 October 2013 the contract between the Department for Transport (DFT) and arvato was novated to the Cabinet Office.
ISSC2 Until 1 April 2013, DWP had Accounting Officer responsibility for the Shared Service centre operations. During the period 1 April to 31 October 2013, the former DWP shared services operation was managed by the Cabinet Office. During this time there were no material changes to the operations. From 1 November 2013 to 31 March 2014, the framework contract was let by the Cabinet Office which assumed Accounting Officer responsibility for the Framework contract. Individual customers retain their own accounting officer responsibility at the call-off contract level. The Founding Organisations also signed a transition service agreement which provides services back to SSCL, for which they are accountable.
As a result of these changes, the responsibilities of the Cabinet Office Accounting Officer have changed significantly.
The Accounting Officer has outlined his responsibilities in a letter to departments assuring them that the Cabinet Office as the framework authority:
carries out its duties and obligations under
the Framework Agreement in accordance with the Agreement's terms, and that it has exercised, and continues to exercise, reasonable skill, care and diligence in the performance
of
those
duties
and
obligations;
monitors the compliance of SSCL and arvato with their obligations under the Framework Agreement and notifies the customer of any issues that may have an adverse material impact on the Call-Off Agreement;
has sufficient, appropriately skilled and experienced resources to enable the Department to comply with its obligations under the Framework Agreement. To manage these responsibilities the Crown Oversight Function was created, reporting to Rannia Leontaridi in the Efficiency and Reform
Group. The Crown Oversight Function will manage the following aspects of the relationship between the Cabinet Office, customers and SSCL:
day-to-day contract management of SSCL
and arvato at Framework level
customer and SSCL and arvato change
management requests
tracking and developing the benefits
delivered by SSCL and arvato.
operational benchmark setting of all finance and HR transactional shared services Within the Crown Oversight Function, a governance structure
(including a risk management process) has been put in place to support effective management of the Framework Agreement with arvato. Customer departments receive formal assurance letter at the end of each financial year, setting out how the Cabinet Office has met its responsibilities. Risk management - ISSC1
During 2013-14, arvato, the Cabinet Office, and customer departments managed and mitigated the following two key risks:
risk to service continuity, employee relationships and key performance indicators during handover from DfT to arvato
Mitigation: DfT and arvato jointly managed the transition of the Shared Service Centre to arvato. They jointly developed an agreed transition plan, which was robustly managed by both parties
risk to service continuity during SAP migration
Mitigation: infrastructure build and implementation managed via appropriate governance structures.
Robust change control and risk and issue management processes put in place; clear acceptance criteria.
Risk Management - ISSC2 During the creation and operation of SSCL, the Cabinet Office, SSCL
and customer departments managed and mitigated the following two key risks:
During the period when the Cabinet Office
had
Accounting
Officer
responsibility
but
DWP
was
still
managing the staff and operations, there was a risk that disgruntled staff might exploit the weaknesses in the IT security that had not been resolved,
with
consequences
for
service
continuity
and/or
information
assurance.
Mitigation: A rigorous due diligence process by the Cabinet Office prior to the transfer of Accounting Officer responsibility meant that there was a good understanding of the IT issues and the potential for exploitation. Prior to the transfer to SSCL, the Shared Services senior management team in DWP monitored the position, and neither disruption to services nor any malicious activity was experienced.
During the period from 1 November
2013 to 31 March 2014, the IT security issues were largely addressed and the resultant risk diminished. But instead, there arose a new risk to service continuity and/or a risk of malicious activity: during this period, staff and operations moved from DWP, the Environment Agency and Defra (the Founding Organisations) to SSCL. There was a period of uncertainty for staff over their future roles and locations, and therefore potential for disgruntlement.
Mitigation:
This was mitigated through careful management of the handover process by both the Founding Organisations and SSCL, including ongoing engagement and consultation with the recognised trade unions. There was a stabilisation period, with specific criteria to be fulfilled, and close management monitoring and oversight. In addition, it was contractually agreed that no changes would be made to existing operations for the first six months, and that no sites would close for 12 months, so as to minimise the impact on staff. Neither disruption to services nor any malicious activity was experienced. ISSC1 Assurance Summary The Cabinet Office Shared Services Audit Committee met on 14 May and considered evidence from:
arvato management
Ernst & Young (in relation to independent review of arvato's control processes)
XDIAS It concluded that reasonable assurance can be
given at a Framework Level, taking into account the following factors:
During its time in DfT, no significant
control weaknesses was identified by
DfT management or Internal Audit in
the shared services operation or
environment
No outstanding audit issues existed at
the point of handover.
No audit issues have been identified by arvato management since then.
No significant control weaknesses have been identified by Ernst & Young in its review work
No issues have been identified by the National Audit Office (NAO) in its financial audit work to date
ISSC2 assurance summary The Cabinet Office Shared Services Audit Committee met on 14 May and considered evidence from:
SSCL management
Grant Thornton's ISAE 3402 'lite' report
XDIAS. It concluded that reasonable assurance can be given at a Framework Level, taking account of the following factors:
The outstanding audit issues existing at the point of handover continue to be closely monitored and mitigated.
No audit issues have been identified by SSCL management since that time.
No significant audit issues have been raised
by
customers
via
the
governance forums.
No significant control weaknesses have
been
identified
by
Grant
Thornton in its review work.
No issues have been identified by the National Audit Office in its financial audit work to date.
Risk management in the Finance Shared Services Division in the Department for Communities and Local Government The Cabinet Office continues to receive financial services from the Elections Claim Unit of the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) under a shared services arrangement. An annual letter of assurance from DCLG confirms that risk management is reviewed regularly and that appropriate systems of internal controls are applied to ensure the integrity of Cabinet Office data which DCLG is processing on behalf of the Cabinet Office. The Accounting Officer receives a letter of assurance from the DCLG's Accounting Officer, covering the services which DCLG provides to the Cabinet Office. The letter of assurance for 2013-14 states that: 'My review is informed by internal and external audit opinions and by other ad-hoc reviews (both internal and external). No issues have been raised by the Audit and Risk Committee in relation to the services provided and no Significant Control Issues have been identified.'
It also confirms that, 'specifically for services provided to [the Cabinet Office] by [the Finance Shared Services Division], all key controls are in place'.
Fraud, error and debt The Cabinet Office's fraud policy, available to all staff via the intranet, requires staff at all times to act honestly, with integrity, and to safeguard the public resources for which they are responsible. The Cabinet Office views fraud and negligence very seriously and will take appropriate disciplinary and legal action against anyone found guilty of either. Cases of suspected or actual fraud are reported to the Audit and Risk Committee. The Cabinet Office contributes fully to the intra-governmental fraud information and intelligence capability. The Counter Fraud Champion and two Alert System Co-ordinators continue to work with a department wide network of contacts to facilitate the quick and comprehensive identification and dissemination of appropriate information.
In March 2013, the Cabinet Office participated in the National Fraud Initiative run by the Audit Commission. Payroll and supplier data was matched with similar data from a wide range of organisations across the public sector. A small number of duplicate payments were identified and have been recovered. Cabinet Office officials are contributing to the Grants Efficiency Programme, the Best Practice Network and have helped develop guidance and a toolkit for use by grant-makers across government. An exercise to check for duplicate payments to suppliers has been commissioned to cover the years 2011-12 to 2013-14. The organisation carrying out the exercise receives no fee if it does not identify and recover any such duplicates; if duplicates are identified, the fee is taken from the recoveries.
A major information/publicity campaign was undertaken along with a programme of staff training/briefing, and the scheme was successfully launched on 2 April 2014. The security of the data held on the Department's corporate IT network (Flex) continued to be maintained in line with relevant security accreditation.
Non-corporate IT
systems continued to comply with the servicewide security requirements through restrictions on the movement and transmission of data.
Arm's length bodies The Accounting Officer takes assurance from the Governance Statements produced by the Civil Service Commission and the Government Procurement Service. Both are subjected to the Department's normal financial control procedures and practices as well as to scrutiny by both internal and external audit.
There were no concerns.
Oversight of Local Responsibilities
The Cabinet Office makes a number of direct grant awards, principally to organisations in the voluntary, community and social enterprise sector, and funds a number of grant schemes delivered through partners such as the Big Lottery Fund, which is an executive nondepartmental public body of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, for which the Minister for the Cabinet Office has some responsibility (as set out at Note 30 to the Accounts). Grants are distributed on the basis of the Coalition Government's stated priorities, in particular around the building of the Big Society. This includes delivery of commitments such as the National Citizen Service. For direct awards, the Cabinet Office issues each grant recipient with a formal grant offer letter and associated terms and conditions of grant.
Payment of grants is done in instalments based on the grant recipient fulfilling the terms and conditions of grant payment and on satisfactory progress in Information risk, information handling and protective security
The Cabinet Office holds personal data primarily relating to: its own employees; staff in other departments who are members of ISSC2; members of the Royal Mail Statutory Pension Scheme; members of the Principal Civil Service Pensions Scheme; those who have been nominated for honours, gallantry awards, appointments etc.; Civil Service Internships; and those members of the public who have participated in various Cabinet Office sponsored initiatives. The Department has continued to monitor and assess its information risks in order to identify and address any weaknesses and ensure continuous improvements of its systems. The Department has completed its latest rolling programme of audits assessing compliance against the mandatory requirements contained in the Security Policy Framework. The Report supported work currently being undertaken to strengthen the Department's Business Continuity arrangements and identified a small number of other instances where further work might be beneficial in order to emphasise the Department's compliance with the Security Policy Framework (SPF). Work has continued on implementing some outstanding recommendations from earlier audits. The Department has continued to operate two Security Working Groups (SWGs). The first monitors the work of ISSC2, and the second that of MyCSP. The purpose of the SWGs is to ensure that controls deployed are appropriate for the data sensitivity, risks are identified and work continues to fully adhere to the SPF. Two losses of Personal Information have been notified to the Information Commissioner's Office. Further detail can be found at the section 'Reporting of personal data-related incidents' within the Directors' Report. Other major work undertaken during the year included the implementation of the new Government Security Classification scheme.
achieving the outcomes of the grant award. Regular but proportionate monitoring of progress is undertaken by named policy officials, in conjunction with Cabinet Office finance teams. Spend across all grant programmes is monitored on a monthly basis through the established Cabinet Office financial reporting and scrutiny processes. Some direct grants are awarded on the basis of competition between potential recipients, to ensure that there is value for money and that the objectives of the Government can be appropriately delivered. In some limited cases grant awards are made without a competitive process, where the recipients' objectives and programme of work already align with the Government's objectives for grant funding. For a number of larger grant programmes, the Cabinet Office works through a delivery partner, rather than administering the grant inhouse. This is achieved in two key ways. The Cabinet Office has, in some cases, tendered through open competition for a delivery partner.
Following competition, a grant administrator is appointed and runs the scheme under contract to the Cabinet Office.
Through the contracting arrangements, the Cabinet Office monitors the performance and progress of the grant administrator in carrying out its functions in relation to grant competitions and awards, organisation verification, grant set-up and payment,s and grant monitoring. A management fee is payable for these services, and the Cabinet Office passes on grant funding, which the grant administrator distributes to the successful grant recipients.
In other cases, the Cabinet Office works through the Big Lottery Fund to deliver funds as part of the sponsorship role that the Cabinet Office holds in relation to the Big Lottery Fund as a Non-Departmental Public Body (NDPB). The Cabinet Office and the Big Lottery Fund work jointly to develop the fund and the Big Lottery Fund fulfils the grant administration role, as set out in agreed schedules of work. Funds are paid to the Big Lottery Fund by way of grant funding to the NDPB to cover costs and grant awards. The Cabinet Office takes assurance from the fact that Big Lottery Fund has the duty to ensure that there is propriety and regularity in the handling of all public funds, in accordance with the Non-
Departmental Public Bodies'
Accounting Officers'
memorandum
(issued by the Treasury and published in Managing Public Money) and with the Financial Directions issued to the Big Lottery Fund from time to time by the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport under section 26(3) of the National Lottery etc. Act 1993. Richard Heaton CB

## Remuneration Report
Remuneration of Ministers and Board Members Remuneration Policy The remuneration of senior civil servants is set by the Prime Minister, following independent advice from the Review Body on Senior Salaries. The Government announced in May 2010 a two year pay freeze for public sector workers earning more than £21,000. As such Senior Civil Servants entered a two-year pay freeze from 1 April 2011 and exited it in April 2013. The Government also announced in May 2010
that future non-consolidated awards will be restricted to the top 25% of Senior Civil Servants and non-consolidated awards paid in
2013-14 were in line with this policy.
Performance-related non-consolidated awards are paid one year in arrears so the pay reported and paid in 2013-14 was earned in the financial year of 2012-13. The performance management system for senior civil servants is common across all government departments. Pay awards are made in two parts: non-consolidated variable payments, which are used to reward members of staff who demonstrate exceptional performance, and base pay progression, to reward growth in competence. The size of awards is based on recommendations from the Review Body on Senior Salaries, and in 2013- 14 non-consolidated awards paid to the senior civil servants disclosed in this report ranged from £10,000 to £15,000. The Review Body also advises the Prime Minister from time to time on the pay and pensions of Members of Parliament and on their allowances; on peers' allowances; and on the pay, pensions and allowances of ministers and others whose pay is determined by the Ministerial and Other Salaries Act 1975. In reaching its recommendations, the Review Body is to have regard to the following considerations:
the need to recruit, retain and motivate
suitably able and qualified people to exercise their different responsibilities
regional/local
variations
in
labour
markets and their effects on the recruitment and retention of staff
government policies for improving the
public
services,
including
the
requirement for departments to meet
the output targets for the delivery of
departmental services
the funds available to departments as
set
out
in
the
Government's
departmental expenditure limits
the Government's inflation target. The Review Body takes account of the evidence it receives about wider economic considerations and the affordability of its recommendations. Further information about the work of the Review Body can be found at www.ome.uk.com
## Service Contracts
The Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010 requires Civil Service appointments to be made on merit on the basis of fair and open competition. The Recruitment Principles issued by the Civil Service Commission specify the circumstances under which appointments may be made otherwise. Unless otherwise stated below, the officials covered by this report hold appointments which are open ended. Early termination, other than for misconduct, would result in the individual receiving compensation, as set out in the Civil Service Compensation Scheme. Further information about the work of the Civil Service Commission can be found at www.civilservicecommission.org.uk Audited Information The following tables detailing salary and pension entitlements of ministers and senior management have been audited.

Disclosures above represent the salary paid in respect of their role as Board Members, and may not be the same as the periods employed by the Department. When a Board Member is transferred to another department the existing host department pays the salary at the current rate of pay up to the end of the month of departure and the new host department pays them in the month following at the appropriate salary, along with any arrears
1 The value of pension benefits accrued during the year is calculated as (the real increase in pension multiplied by 20) plus (the real increase in any lump sum) less (the contributions made by the individual). The real increases exclude increases due to inflation or any increase or decreases due to a transfer of pension rights
2 The Permanent Secretary had the private use of an allocated car in the circumstances permitted by the Civil Service Management Code. The car is a shared resource between the Cabinet Secretary and the Head of the Civil Service (footnote 4). Ministers and civil servants in the Cabinet Office and No 10 also use the car on a regular basis. The Cabinet Secretary uses the car predominantly for home to office journeys.

Salary
'Salary'
includes gross salary;
overtime;
reserved rights to London weighting or London allowances;
recruitment and retention allowances; private office allowances and any other allowance to the extent that it is subject to UK taxation. This report is based on accrued payments made by the Department and thus recorded in these accounts. In respect of ministers in the House of Commons, departments bear only the cost of the additional Ministerial remuneration; the salary for their services as an MP (£65,738 from 1 April 2010, £66,396 from 1 April 2013) and various allowances to which they are entitled are borne centrally.
However, the arrangement for ministers in the House of Lords is different in that they do not receive a salary but rather an additional remuneration, which cannot be quantified separately from their Ministerial salaries.
This total remuneration, as well as the allowances to which they are entitled, is paid by the Department and is therefore shown in full in the figures above.
## Benefits In Kind
The monetary value of benefits in kind covers any benefits provided by the Department and treated by HM Revenue and Customs as a taxable emolument. Bonuses
Bonuses are based on performance levels attained and are made as part of the appraisal process. Bonuses reported in the accounts are those paid in year relating to prior year's performance. Bonuses are not accrued or provided for at 31 March since the appraisal process is not complete until summer. This is consistent with accounting treatment in previous financial years. The bonuses reported in 2013-14 relate to performance in 2012-13 and the comparative bonuses reported for 2012-13 relate to the performance in 2011-12.

Ratio

6.12
Reporting bodies are required to disclose the relationship between the remuneration of the banded highest-paid director in their organisation and the median remuneration of the organisation's workforce. The median is the mid-point of the remuneration of the organisation's workforce. The banded remuneration of the highest-paid director in the Cabinet Office in the financial year 2013-14 was £265 - 270,000 (2012-13 :
£270 - 275,000). This was 6.33 times (2012-
13 : 6.12) the median remuneration of the workforce, which was £42,300 (2012-13 :
£44,743).
In 2013-14, no (2012-13 : none) employees received remuneration in excess of the highest-paid director. Remuneration ranged from £17,000 to £270,000 (2012-13: £17,000 to £275,000).
Total remuneration of the highest-paid director includes salary, non-consolidated performance-related pay and benefits in kind. It does not include severance payments, employer pension contributions and the cash equivalent transfer value of pensions. The pay multiples (ratio) is calculated by taking the highest paid director and remuneration of the full-time equivalent staff of the Cabinet Office at the reporting period end date on an annualised basis.
The purpose of this calculation is to allow some comparability over time and across the public sector and private sector, where similar disclosures of Chief Executive remuneration and pay multiples are made. However, the comparison should be treated with caution, given the different services provided, workforce skills, geographical locations and organisational structures. A balance is therefore considered in analysing and supporting narrative to give sufficient explanation and justification to ensure that users can understand the intricacies of the Cabinet Office's pay policy. Staff costs Note 4 discloses termination benefits and fees paid to agencies for temporary staff. These have not been included in the computation of pay multiples.
There has been an increase in the ratio of the year on year variance from 6.12 in 2012-13 to
6.33 in 2013-14 of top to median staff remuneration of the workforce. This is mainly attributable to the following:
the highest-paid director received a minor
salary increment and his benefits in kind
were lower compared with the previous year, which contributed to the decrease in the total remuneration figure
an increase in headcount which drove the
median salary slightly towards the lower band.
Fees Paid to Non-Executive Board Members
Non-Executive Board Members (NEBM) have been offered a fee of £15,000 a year in line with the Bank of England Non-Executive Directors of Court. The role of Lead NEBM and the role of chair of the audit committee will each attract an additional £5,000 a year. Individuals may waive all or part of their fee. The estimated annual time commitment is likely to be around 12-15 days, including a strategy away-day. Board members may claim their fees as and when preferred and therefore fees paid and fee entitlement may differ in the table below. Claimed fees are included within wages and salaries costs at Note 4 to the Accounts.

Cash Equivalent Transfer Value This is the actuarially assessed capitalised value of the pension scheme benefits accrued by a member at a particular point in time. The benefits valued are the member's accrued benefits and any contingent spouse's pension payable from the scheme. A Cash Equivalent Transfer Value (CETV) is a payment made by a pension scheme or an arrangement to secure pension benefits in another pension scheme or an arrangement when the member leaves a scheme and chooses to transfer the pension benefits accrued in the former scheme. The pension figures shown relate to the benefits that the individual has accrued as a consequence of their total Ministerial service, not just their current appointment as a Minister. CETVs are calculated in accordance with the Occupational Pension Schemes (Transfer Values) (Amendment) Regulations 2008 and do not take account of any actual or potential reduction to benefits resulting from Lifetime Allowance Tax, which may be due when pension benefits are taken.
Real Increase in the value of the CETV
This is the element of the increase in accrued pension funded by the Exchequer. It excludes increases due to inflation and contributions paid by the Minister. It is worked out using common market valuation factors for the start and end of the period.
Ministerial Pensions Pension benefits for ministers are provided by the Parliamentary Contributory Pension Fund (PCPF). The scheme is made under statute (the regulations are set out in Statutory Instrument SI 1993 No. 3253, as amended). Those ministers who are Members of Parliament may also accrue an MP's pension under the PCPF (details of which are not included in this report). The accrual rate has been 1/40th since 15 July 2002 (or 5 July 2001, for those that chose to backdate the change). but ministers, in common with all other members of the PCPF, can opt for a 1/50th accrual rate and a lower rate of member contribution. An additional 1/60th accrual rate option (backdated to 1 April 2008) was introduced from 1 January 2010. Benefits for ministers are payable at the same time as MPs' benefits become payable under the PCPF or, for those who are not MPs, on retirement from Ministerial office from age 65.
Pensions are re-valued annually in line with Pensions-Increase legislation. From 1 April 2013 members paid contributions of between
7.9% and 16.7%, depending on their level of seniority and chosen accrual rate. The contribution rates will increase from April 2014.
The accrued pension quoted is the pension that the Minister is entitled to receive on reaching the age 65, or on ceasing to be an active member of the scheme if they are already 65. In line with reforms to other public service pension schemes, it is intended to reform the Ministerial Pension Scheme in 2015.

Civil Service Pensions Pension benefits are provided through the Civil Service pension arrangements. From 30 July 2007, civil servants may be in one of four defined benefit schemes in; either a final salary scheme (classic, premium or classic plus); or a whole career scheme (nuvos). These statutory arrangements are unfunded with the cost of benefits met by monies voted by Parliament each year. Pensions payable under classic, premium, classic plus and nuvos are increased annually in line with Pensions-Increase legislation.
Members joining from October 2002 may opt for either the appropriate defined benefit arrangement or a 'money purchase' stakeholder pension with an employer contribution (partnership pension account). Employee contributions are salary related and range between fro 1.5% and 6.25% of pensionable earnings for classic, and between 3.5% and 8.25% for premium, classic plus and nuvos. Increases to employee contributions will apply from 1 April 2014. Benefits in classic accrue at the rate of
1/80th of final pensionable earnings for each year of service.
In addition, a lump sum, equivalent to three years initial pension is payable on retirement.
For premium, benefits accrue at the rate of
1/60th of final pensionable earnings for each year of service. Unlike classic, there is no automatic lump sum.
classic plus is essentially a hybrid, with benefits for service before 1 October 2002 calculated broadly as per classic and benefits for service from October 2002 worked out as in premium. In nuvos a member builds up a pension based on his/her pensionable earnings during the period of scheme membership. At the end of the scheme year (31 March) the member's earned pension account is credited with 2.3% of the pensionable earnings in that scheme year and the accrued pension is uprated in line with Pensions-Increase legislation. In all cases members may opt to give up (commute) pension for a lump sum, up to the limits set by the Finance Act 2004. The partnership pension account is a stakeholder pension arrangement.
The employer makes a basic contribution of between 3% and 12.5% (depending on the age of the member) into a stakeholder pension product chosen by the employee from a panel of three providers. The employee does not have to contribute, but if he/she does make contributions, the employer will match these up to a limit of 3% of pensionable salary (in addition to the employer's basic contribution). Employers also contribute a further 0.8% of pensionable salary to cover the cost of centrally provided risk benefit cover (death in service and ill health retirement).
The accrued pension quoted is the pension that the member is entitled to receive when on reaching pension age, or immediately on ceasing to be an active member of the scheme if they are already at or over pension age. Pension age is 60 for members of classic, premium and classic plus, and 65 for members of nuvos. Further details about the Civil Service pension arrangements can be found at
## Www.Civilservice.Gov.Uk/Pensions Cash Equivalent Transfer Values
A CETV is the actuarially assessed capitalised value of the pension scheme benefits accrued by a member at a particular point in time. The benefits valued are the member's accrued benefits and any contingent spouse's pension payable from the scheme. A CETV is a payment made by a pension scheme or an arrangement to secure pension benefits in another pension scheme or an arrangement when the member leaves a scheme and chooses to transfer the benefits accrued in their former scheme. The pension figures shown relate to the benefits that the individual has accrued as a consequence of his/her total membership of the pension scheme, not just service in a senior capacity to which disclosure applies. The figures include the value of any pension benefit in another scheme or arrangement which the member has transferred to the Civil Service pension arrangements. They also include any additional pension benefit accrued by the member as a result of buying additional pension benefits out of their own pocket. CETVs are worked out in accordance with the Occupational Pension Schemes (Transfer Values) (Amendment) Regulations 2008 and do not take account of any actual or potential reduction to benefits resulting from Lifetime Allowance Tax which may be due when pension benefits are taken. Real Increase in CETV
This reflects the increase in CETV that is funded by the employer. It does not include the increase in accrued pension due to inflation, contributions paid by the employee (including the value of any benefits transferred from another pension scheme or arrangement) and uses common market valuation factors for the start and end of the period.
Compensation for Loss of Office
There were no cases of compensation for loss of office during the reporting year.

## Corporate Information Monitoring Spending On Consultancy And Temporary Staff
Measures to control spending were introduced after the freeze on consultancy and interim managers and other temporary staff announced by the Chancellor of the Exchequer in May 2010. These measures have had a significant impact on the Cabinet Office's use of external resources since 2009-
10, despite variations in classification and the Cabinet Office gaining extra business functions from other departments following the formation of the Coalition Government. Expenditure by the Cabinet Office in 2013-14 on consultancy has fallen by some 67%
compared with 2009-10 although there was an increase of just under 50% on the previous year. Similarly, expenditure on temporary staff increased. Both these increases are mainly attributable to the need to buy in specialist skills necessary to support the Mutualisation Programme (including the ISSC2 project), the Commercial Reform Programme, the Public Service Network programme and the Government Digital Strategy. The Cabinet Office utilised consultants as a more costeffective option than taking on further permanent staff.

## Recruitment Practice
All Civil Service recruitment within the Cabinet Office is carried out in accordance with relevant employment legislation and the Recruitment Principles issued by the Civil Service Commission. For the year 2012-13, the number of vacancies filled was 340. In 2013-14, the number of vacancies filled was 480. This was due to a high requirement for expertise to be brought in from government departments, other parts of the public sector and, in some cases, the private sector to work on departmental priorities. The Cabinet Office resourcing model aims for a relatively high ratio of staff on loan from other departments. Staff bring expertise into the Cabinet Office, develop their skills and return to their home departments with the benefit of experience of working in central government. Vacancies arise as staff return to their departments.

The Department continued to offer young people the opportunity to enhance their employability through the Apprenticeships programme, through intern and workexperience opportunities. In 2013-14, five apprentices and eight Fast-track apprentices joined the Department; and 35 opportunities for undergraduate and graduate internships were filled. In addition, five work-experience opportunities were successfully filled as part of the social mobility-oriented Whitehall Internship Programme.
## Public Appointments And Reappointments
As at 31 March 2014, the Cabinet Office sponsored nine non-departmental public bodies (NDPBs), two executive NDPBs and seven advisory NDPBs. In addition, the Cabinet Office oversees the public appointments for the Charity Commission and the UK Statistics Authority, both of which are Non-Ministerial Government Departments. Between 1 April 2013 and 31 March 2014, 18 appointments were made, of which 15 were new. During the period April to September 2013, 40% of the new appointments were given to women.
Of these, seven appointments were to the Charity Commission for England and Wales, four to the House of Lords Appointments Commission, two to the UK Statistics Authority, and one each to the Committee on Standards in Public Life and the Civil Service Commission. Re-appointments were made to the Boundary Commission for England and Wales and the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
For comparison, in 2012-13 there were 11 new appointments, including to the Big Lottery Fund and the Committee on Standards in Public Life. Re-appointments were made to the Senior Salaries Review Body, the Committee on Standards in Public Life and the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
## Employee Consultation
The Cabinet Office recognises the importance of sustaining good employee relations to achieve its objectives, and consultation with employees and their representatives is central to that work. Regular communication and consultation continues to take place with all staff through a variety of channels, including the intranet, staff bulletins and team briefings. More formal consultation exercises also take place with staff and unions on matters such as organisational change and changes to staff terms and conditions.
The Department formally recognises the FDA union, the Public and Commercial Services Union and Prospect. It has a partnership agreement with the trade unions and senior managers meet regularly to discuss a shared agenda. There are also regular meetings to negotiate pay awards and other informal meetings to discuss trade union concerns at both the corporate and the local level.
The Cabinet Office Employee Relations Strategy embeds monthly trade union/human resoruces
(HR)
meetings and quarterly meetings with the HR Director.
There are also staff networks which represent particular groups of employees, including women, people with disabilities, staff with dyslexia, lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender employees, and carers. The Cabinet Office runs an annual people survey which captures employees' views on a number of issues. The results of the survey are used to measure levels of engagement at the local and the corporate level.
## Sickness And Absence
The sickness absence figure for the rolling 12
months to 31 March 2014 stands at 2.3 average working days lost, including the Government Procurement Service (GPS) or 1.8 excluding (GPS).
## Diversity And Inclusion Policy
The Cabinet Office is committed to:
eliminating
discrimination,
harassment,
victimisation and any other conduct that is prohibited by or under the Equality Act 2010
advancing equality of opportunity between persons who share a relevant protected characteristic and persons who do not share it
fostering good relations between persons who
share
a
relevant
protected
characteristic and persons who do not share it. The Cabinet Office aims to be an organisation where everyone is:
treated with fairness and respect
able to contribute and develop
confident about how to ensure that the
work
they
do
supports
equality
of
outcomes for everyone in society.
The Cabinet Office's people management policies and practices reflect the Cabinet
Office and Civil Service Management Codes. They build on the legal obligations under national and European law.
However, diversity for the Cabinet Office entails more than just those elements covered by legislation and enshrines the true diversity of thought, skills, background and experience.
It does not tolerate any form of unfair discriminatory behaviour, harassment, bullying or victimisation, and will do all it can to ensure that any such allegations are dealt with sensitively and fairly. During 2012, the Cabinet Office introduced three equality objectives in line with the requirement of the Public Sector Equality Duty.
Equality data about the workforce population can be found on the Cabinet Office website, together with updates on progress, at: Public Sector Equality Duty
## Employment, Training And Advancement Of Disabled Persons
The Cabinet Office supports the employment, training and advancement of disabled persons. This is done in several ways. First, the Cabinet Office takes part in the 'Two Ticks' scheme, which encourages candidates with a disability to apply. If a candidate declares a disability and meets the minimum standards required for the job, he or she is offered an interview. The Cabinet Office uses management information to monitor how the policies and procedures affect staff, and takes necessary action to mitigate any negative effects that may occur. The Cabinet Office is also a corporate member of the Business Disability Forum, which helps to measure and improve on performance for disabled employees and stakeholders.
## Pensions
Present and past employees of the Cabinet Office are covered by the provisions of the Principal Civil Service Pension Scheme. The scheme allows employees to make pension provision for retirement if they wish.
Information on Civil Service pension scheme options is available on the Civil Service website at: www.civilservice.gov.uk/pensions The financial status of the scheme is reported in the Cabinet Office Civil Superannuation Accounts, published on the Civil Service website. The accounting policy adopted for pension costs is set out at Note 1.10 to the Accounts. Details of senior management pension entitlements are set out in the Remuneration Report.
## Capabilities Learning And Development
The Cabinet Office has fully embraced building capability within the four priority areas as identified by the Capabilities Plan 2013 - digital; commercial; programme and project management;
and leadership and management of change. A Senior Capabilities Working Group has been established, and Capability Champions have been appointed to identify corporate solutions to closing the capability gaps identified. Each business unit has a plan to build capability and activity, and this is monitored on a quarterly basis. At the end of February 2014, each business unit had in place on average four key actions to address capability gaps.
In addition, the Cabinet Office has identified departmental specific capabilities, and people are supported in their personal development.
## Health And Safety
The Cabinet Office accepts its responsibilities under the provisions of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 and other associated legislation. The Department undertakes, so far as is reasonably practicable, to meet its legal obligations regarding the safety and health of its staff and others who may be affected by the Department's activities. In the financial year 2013-14, 11 accidents were reported by staff, of which one was reported to the Health and Safety Executive as required under the Reporting of Injuries, Diseases and Dangerous Occurrences Regulations 1995.
## Policy On Social And Community Issues
Internally, as part of its corporate social responsibility agenda, the Cabinet Office actively promotes awareness of social and community issues, and is committed to promoting inclusion and equality through its human resource and other policies. A major contributor to this is the encouragement of volunteering, whether individually or in groups, including providing special leave for this purpose. Information is made easily available through the Cabinet Office intranet. Health and well-being is also embedded within the Cabinet Office People Strategy. A fitness centre is available in some buildings, and, it is hoped, there will also be opportunities to attend well-being seminars as part of an annual Better Cabinet Office event later in the year. Externally, the Cabinet Office includes the Office for Civil Society (OCS), which works across government to translate the vision for a Big Society into practical policies, provides support to voluntary and community sector organisations, and is responsible for delivering a number of key Big Society programmes, as well as the Civil Society Compact. Many programmes within the OCS play a hugely important role in encouraging social action. These include the Centre for Social Action, the Government's commitment to the volunteering legacy of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the Community Organisers programme, to name just a few. The OCS is leading on work to change the Civil Service into a 'civic service'. This project aims to provide civil servants with opportunities to use their skills to support civil society organisations, and to utilise social action as a means of learning and professional development for civil servants. This ambition to work more closely with the civil society sector was set out in the Civil Service Reform Plan, and the Cabinet Office is working with other departments to help implement it. In line with this, the Cabinet Office has developed a successful Charity of the Year initiative, which is run by staff from across the Department.
This partnership successfully supported the British Heart Foundation in 2013-14, and in
2014-15 will be working with the Samaritans, which was selected through a staff vote.
## Estates Management Strategy
The Cabinet Office owns five freehold properties in London: the interconnected 70 Whitehall and
10–12
Downing Street, Admiralty Arch, Admiralty House and 36 Whitehall. In addition, the Cabinet Office is responsible for the freehold of the Civil Service Club building in Great Scotland Yard. Outside London, it owns the freehold of the Emergency Planning College at Easingwold, Yorkshire, and of the site on which the Hannington radio mast sits. Both of these were inherited from the Home Office on earlier 'machinery of government' changes. The Cabinet Office is also responsible for the Sunningdale Park site, which is the subject of a private finance initiative contract.
The Cabinet Office takes a proactive approach to the management of its estate, in order to provide the necessary accommodation to meet current and future business needs. The strategy is to consolidate as far as possible in the interconnected 70 Whitehall and 10–12 Downing Street (by investing, where possible, to increase their capacity and provide modernised, more flexible accommodation) and to co-locate with HM Treasury at 1 Horse Guards Road. Leasehold properties will be disposed of, and the Cabinet Office is working with the Government Property Unit to achieve the re-use of the non-core freehold buildings that will no longer be required by the Cabinet Office.
Following open planning and modernisation of the infrastructure,
36
Whitehall, which is currently vacant, will be reused by the Government as office space. Parts of the Sunningdale Park site are now categorised as an investment property, since it is no longer owner occupied and is being held for capital appreciation; see Note 9 to the Accounts. Admiralty Arch is classified as an asset held for sale; see Note 20 to the Accounts.
## Payment Of Suppliers
Terms of contract are usually payment within
30 days of receipt of a valid invoice. During the year, the Department paid 98.6% of invoices within 30 days (2012-13: 99.0%). On 8 October 2008, the then Prime Minister committed government organisations to speeding up the payments process, paying suppliers wherever possible within ten days. This commitment is a target rather than a change to standard terms and conditions and is not contractual. During the year, the Cabinet Office paid 93.4% of invoices within ten days (2012-13: 94.5%). During 2010-11 the then Prime Minister further committed government organisations to speeding up the payments process, to pay suppliers, wherever possible, within five days. This is a target rather than a change to the standard terms and conditions and is not contractual. During the year, the Cabinet Office paid 78.9% of invoices within five days (2012-13: 79.0%).
The amount owed to trade creditors at 31 March, compared with the amount invoiced by suppliers during the year, expressed as number of days, was 12 days (2012-13: 54 days). The significant variance which is expressed as number of days is due to the sum of £18.35 million, mainly made up of invoices for Next Generation HR
and Corporate Services ICT costs which were received and unpaid at the end of March 2013. The Department paid out £131,950 on account of late payment of invoices for the year to 31 March 2014 (2012-13: £120,914).
Better regulation
During 2013-14 the Cabinet Office was responsible for three regulatory changes that are in scope of the 'one-in, two out' (OITO) rule. All of these measures were confirmed by the independent Regulatory Policy Committee (RPC) as having no cost to business, and on that basis the Cabinet Office has maintained a zero balance for 'one in, one out' and 'one in, two out'. Details of the new Cabinet Office regulation subject to OITO are published on the GOV.UK website at: Cabinet Office Statement of New Regulation Statements of new regulation for all departments are published at: One-in, two-out:
statement of new regulation The RPC
provides an external and independent challenge to the evidence and analysis presented in impact assessments supporting the development of new regulatory measures proposed by the Government. During the year, the Cabinet Office published four consultations in its own right, and collaborated with other departments on six further consultations.
All Cabinet Office consultations are available on the GOV.UK website.

## Transparency
The Cabinet Office published its first Dataset Inventory in October 2013, identifying over 80 new datasets, including hitherto unpublished data on major projects, social investment, government procurement and Civil Service reform. Some 37 key datasets were also identified as part of the National Information Infrastructure. A key achievement this year was the publication of data from the first Annual Report of the Major Projects Authority (MPA). Data of the Government Major Projects Portfolio
(GMPP)
included progress and future priorities.
In addition, each government department has published detailed information about its GMPP. This includes the MPA red/amber/green rating, key project data including financial information (whole life cost, annual budget and forecast spend) and timetable. This data will be updated every 12
months.
Other key information published as open data for the first time in 2013-14 included data on the Government Construction Pipeline, which includes some
1,047
projects and programmes, and more than £109 billion of investment to 2020 and beyond. Also, detailed results of the confirmation process which will be the first step in transition to individual electoral registration. The test involved the matching of all 380 registers, with around 46 million people, against Department for Work and Pensions data. As part of our commitment to embed open data skills into the business, we ran an Open Data Discovery course for staff in March, run by the Open Data Institute. We are following this up with a programme of regular open data training in 2014-15. Approval has also now been obtained to establish a Cabinet Office Transparency Board as part of our Open Data Strategy for 2014. The Board will fulfil the senior leadership role necessary for transparency and open data across the Cabinet Office and our arm's length bodies. Its role will be to:
define what is out of scope for publication and ring-fence data that should not be published
monitor progress against our departmental commitments
and
hold
data
owners
accountable for meeting them
identify data owners and work with them to
disseminate good practice in opening up our data and publishing it in ways that encourage re-use by others
mainstream transparency and open data
principles within the Department's core values and behaviours
embed a culture of transparency and open
data across the Cabinet Office and our arm's length bodies.
## Advertising And Publicity Costs
The Cabinet Office spent approximately £3.85 million on publicity production costs and advertising media in the financial year 2013-
14.

## Statement Of Accounting Officer'S Responsibilities
Under the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 (the GRAA), HM Treasury has directed the Cabinet Office to prepare, for each financial year, consolidated resource accounts detailing the resources acquired, held or disposed of, and the use of resources, during the year by the Department inclusive of its executive agencies and its sponsored non-departmental public body designated by order made under the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 (Estimates and Accounts) Order 2013 (S.I. 2013/488) & Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 (Estimates and Accounts) (Amendment) Order 2013 (S.I. 2013/3187) (together known as the 'departmental group', consisting of the Department and sponsored bodies listed at Note 30 to the accounts). The accounts are prepared on an accruals basis and must give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Department and the departmental group and of the net resource outturn, the application of resources, changes in taxpayers' equity and cash flows of the departmental group for the financial year. In preparing the accounts, the Accounting Officer of the Department is required to comply with the requirements of the *'Government Financial Reporting Manual'* and in particular to:
observe the Accounts Direction issued by the Treasury, including the relevant accounting and
disclosure requirements, and apply suitable accounting policies on a consistent basis
ensure that the Department has in place appropriate and reliable systems and procedures to
carry out the consolidation process
make judgements and estimates on a reasonable basis, including those judgements involved in consolidating the accounting information provided by non-departmental public bodies
state whether applicable accounting standards as set out in the Government Financial Reporting
Manual have been followed, and disclose and explain any material departures in the accounts
prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. HM Treasury has appointed the Permanent Head of the Department as Accounting Officer of the Cabinet Office. The Accounting Officer of the Cabinet Office has also appointed Clare Salters, Chief Executive, of its sponsored non-departmental public body, Civil Service Commission, as Accounting Officer of that body. Under her terms of appointment, the Accounting Officer of the Civil Service Commission is accountable for the use, including the regularity and propriety, of the grants received and the other income and expenditure of the sponsored body. This appointment does not detract from the Head of Department's overall responsibility as Accounting Officer for the Department's accounts. The Accounting Officer of the Department is responsible for ensuring that appropriate systems and controls are in place to ensure that any grants that the Department makes to its sponsored bodies are applied for the purposes intended and that such expenditure and the other income and expenditure of the sponsored bodies are properly accounted for, for the purposes of consolidation within the resource accounts. The responsibilities of an Accounting Officer, including responsibility for the propriety and regularity of the public finances for which the Accounting Officer is answerable, for keeping proper records and for safeguarding the assets of the Department or non-departmental public body for which the Accounting Officer is responsible, are set out in '*Managing Public Money'* published by HM Treasury.
## Statement On The Disclosure Of Relevant Audit Information
The Cabinet Office Accounts have been prepared on a statutory basis in accordance with the requirements of HM Treasury and are designed to comply with generic Accounts Directions issued to departments by HM Treasury under section 5 (2) of the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000. The financial statements are audited by the Comptroller and Auditor General, who is appointed under statute and reports to Parliament on the audit examination. Auditors' remuneration and expenses are disclosed at Notes 5 and 6 to the Accounts. During the reporting year no payment was made to the auditors for non-audit work (2012-13: £Nil). I hereby confirm that so far as I am aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Cabinet Office's auditors are unaware and that I have taken all reasonable steps to ensure that I am aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Cabinet Office's auditors are aware of that information. Richard Heaton CB
Permanent Secretary for the Cabinet Office, First Parliamentary Counsel and Accounting Officer 24 June 2014
## Financial Statements
# The Certificate And Report Of The Comptroller And Auditor General To The House Of Commons
I certify that I have audited the financial statements of the Cabinet Office and of its Departmental Group for the year ended 31 March 2014 under the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000. The Departmental Group consists of the Department and the bodies designated for inclusion under the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000 (Estimates and Accounts) Order 2013. The financial statements comprise: the Departmental Group's Statements of Comprehensive Net Expenditure, Financial Position, Cash Flows, Changes in Taxpayers' Equity; and the related notes. I have also audited the Statement of Parliamentary Supply and the related notes. These financial statements have been prepared under the accounting policies set out within them. I have also audited the information in the Remuneration Report that is described in that report as having been audited.
Respective responsibilities of the Accounting Officer and auditor
As explained more fully in the Statement of Accounting Officer's Responsibilities, the Accounting Officer is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. My responsibility is to audit, certify and report on the financial statements in accordance with the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000. I conducted my audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require me and my staff to comply with the Auditing Practices Board's Ethical Standards for Auditors.
Scope of the audit of the financial statements
An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Departmental Group's circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the Accounting Officer; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition I read all the financial and non-financial information in the Annual Report and Accounts to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by me in the course of performing the audit. If I become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies I consider the implications for my certificate. I am required to obtain evidence sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the Statement of Parliamentary Supply properly presents the outturn against voted Parliamentary control totals and that those totals have not been exceeded. The voted Parliamentary control totals are Departmental Expenditure Limits (Resource and Capital), Annually Managed Expenditure (Resource and Capital), Non- Budget (Resource) and Net Cash Requirement. I am also required to obtain evidence sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the expenditure and income recorded in the financial statements have been applied to the purposes intended by Parliament and the financial transactions recorded in the financial statements conform to the authorities which govern them.
Opinion on regularity
In my opinion, in all material respects:
the Statement of Parliamentary Supply properly presents the outturn against voted Parliamentary control totals for the year ended 31 March 2014 and shows that those totals have not been exceeded; and
the expenditure and income recorded in the financial statements have been applied to the purposes intended by Parliament and the financial transactions recorded in the financial statements conform to the authorities which govern them.
Opinion on financial statements
In my opinion:
the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the Departmental Group's affairs as at 31 March 2014 and of the Departmental Group's net operating cost for the year then ended; and
the financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with the Government
Resources and Accounts Act 2000 and HM Treasury directions issued thereunder.
Opinion on other matters
In my opinion:
the part of the Remuneration Report to be audited has been properly prepared in accordance with HM Treasury directions made under the Government Resources and Accounts Act 2000;
and
the information given in the Strategic Report and Governance section for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.
Matters on which I report by exception
I have nothing to report in respect of the following matters which I report to you if, in my opinion:
adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for my audit have not been
received from branches not visited by my staff; or
the financial statements and the part of the Remuneration Report to be audited are not in
agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
I have not received all of the information and explanations I require for my audit; or
the Governance Statement does not reflect compliance with HM Treasury's guidance. Report
I have no observations to make on these financial statements.

## Statement Of Parliamentary Supply
In addition to the primary statements prepared under IFRS, the Government Financial Reporting Manual (FReM) requires the Cabinet Office to prepare a Statement of Parliamentary Supply and supporting notes to show resource outturn against the Supply Estimate presented to Parliament, in respect of each budgetary control limit.

## Notes To The Accounts (Statement Of Parliamentary Supply) For The Period Ended 31 March 2014 Sops1. Statement Of Accounting Policies The Statement Of Parliamentary Supply And Supporting Notes Have Been Prepared In Accordance With The 2013-14 Government Financial Reporting Manual (Frem) Issued By Hm Treasury. The Statement Of Parliamentary Supply Accounting Policies Contained In The Frem Are Consistent With The Requirements Set Out In The 2013-14 Consolidated Budgeting Guidance And Supply Estimates Guidance Manual. Sops1.1 Accounting Convention
The Statement of Parliamentary Supply and related notes are presented consistently with Treasury budget control and Supply Estimates. The aggregates across government are measured using National Accounts, prepared in accordance with the internationally agreed framework 'European System of Accounts' (ESA95). ESA95 is in turn consistent with the System of National Accounts (SNA93), which is prepared under the auspices of the United Nations.
The budgeting system and the consequential presentation of Supply Estimates and the Statement of Parliamentary Supply and related notes, have different objectives to IFRS-based accounts. The system supports the achievement of macro-economic stability by ensuring that public expenditure is controlled, with relevant Parliamentary authority, in support of the Government's fiscal framework. The system provides incentives to departments to manage spending well so as to provide high-quality public services that offer value for money to the taxpayer.
The Government's objectives for fiscal policy are set out in the Charter for Budget Responsibility. These are to:
-
ensure sustainable public finances that support confidence in the economy, promote intergenerational fairness, and ensure the effectiveness of wider government policy; and
-
support and improve the effectiveness of monetary policy in stabilising economic fluctuations.
SOPS1.2
Comparison with IFRS-based accounts
Many transactions are treated in the same way in National Accounts and IFRS-based accounts, but there are a number of differences as detailed below. The accounting treatment under IFRS is set out at Note 1 Statement of Accounting Policies accompanying the Accounts. A reconciliation of the Department's outturn as recorded in the SoPS compared to the IFRS-based Statement of Comprehensive Net Expenditure (SoCNE) is provided in SOPS Note 3.1.
SOPS1.21
Capital Grants
Grant income, expenditure and Grant-in-Kind used for capital purposes are treated as capital (CDEL) items in the Statement of Parliamentary Supply to reflect the creation of assets in the wider economy. Under IFRS, as applied by the FReM, there is no distinction between capital grants and other grants, and they score as an item of expenditure and income in the Consolidated SoCNE. Accounting treatment is set out in Accounting Policy Note 1.12 accompanying the Accounts. SOPS1.22
Investments in Associates
The Department recognises in accounts an investment equal to its share of its associates' net assets as at 31 March. The initial investment and eventual disposal are scored as a charge and benefit to Capital DEL respectively but in other respects, accounting and budgeting treatment are mis-aligned.
The share of opening net assets recognised in the Statement of Financial Position (SoFP) and in the SoCNE is classified to Capital DEL non-budget and non-voted and therefore has no impact on control totals. Dividends received which reduce the investment score to administration in Resource DEL. The share of profit or loss for the year and of any impairment in value are outside the scope of budgets. Accounting treatment is set out in Accounting Policy Note 1.23 accompanying the Accounts.
SOPS1.23
Private Finance Initiative (PFI) Transactions The accounting treatment applied to PFI transactions is set out in Accounting Policy Note 1.21 accompanying the Accounts; and the transactions are recognised in the SoPS as follows . Non-current asset additions under a PFI contract are recognised as capital expenditure (CDEL). PFI expenditure on service charges and finance lease interest charges is recognised as resource expenditure (RDEL). Where the Department contributes assets to a PFI operator, a prepayment for their fair value is recognised as capital expenditure (CDEL). Amortisation of the prepayment is recognised over the life of the contract as resource expenditure (RDEL). Where, at the end of a PFI contract, a property reverts to the Department, the difference between the expected fair value of the residual element on reversion and any agreed payment on reversion is built up over the life of the contract through recognising part of the unitary charge each year as capital expenditure (CDEL). SOPS1.24
Provisions - Administration and Programme expenditure
Provisions recognised in IFRS-based accounts are not recognised as expenditure for national accounts purposes until the actual payment of cash (or accrual liability) is recognised. To meet the requirements of both resource accounting and national accounts, additional data entries are made in the SoPS across AME and DEL control totals, which do not affect the SoCNE. As the Administration control total is a subcategory of DEL, Administration and Programme expenditure reported in the SoPS differ from that reported in the IFRS-based accounts; see SOPS Note 3.2. SOPS1.25
Consolidated Fund Standing Services
Budgets include payments from the Consolidated Fund in relation to the salaries and pension costs of the UK Members of the European Parliament (MEPs). These are included in the Estimates but do not form part of the net cash requirement since they are paid directly from the Consolidated Fund as a standing service. The MEP salaries are not included in accounts, since the Cabinet Office does not benefit directly from MEPs' services and cannot re-deploy the funds. Election expenses are included in budgets and accounts but not in Estimates since they are classified as Consolidated Fund Standing Services which are funded directly from the Consolidated Fund at Treasury and therefore do not form part of Supply net cash requirement. SOPS1.26
Grant-in-aid to eNDPBs
Grant-in-aid to eNDPBs is included in the accounts as resource expenditure and in Estimates as part of net cash requirement but is excluded from budgets which instead include the resource and capital expenditure incurred by the eNDPB. Accounting treatment is set out in Accounting Policy Note 1.12 accompanying the Accounts.

## Consolidated Statement Of Cash Flows
The Statement of Cash Flows shows the changes in cash and cash equivalents of the Department during the reporting period. The statement shows how the Department generates and uses cash and cash equivalents by classifying cash flows as operating, investing and financing activities. The amount of net cash flows arising from operating activities is a key indicator of service costs and the extent to which these operations are funded by way of income from the recipients of services provided by the Department. Investing activities represent the extent to which cash inflows and outflows have been made for resources which are intended to contribute to the Departments' future public service delivery. Cash flows arising from financing activities include Parliamentary Supply and other cash flows, including borrowing.

## Consolidated Statement Of Changes In Taxpayers' Equity
This statement shows the movement in the year on the different reserves held by the Department, analysed into 'general fund reserves' (i.e. those reserves that reflect a contribution from the Consolidated Fund). Financing and the balance from the provision of services are recorded here. The Revaluation Reserve reflects the change in asset values that have not been recognised as income or expenditure.

## Notes To The Accounts For The Period Ended 31 March 2014 1. Statement Of Accounting Policies 1.1 Statement Of Compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the 2013-14 Government Financial Reporting Manual (FReM) issued by HM Treasury. The accounting policies contained in the *FReM* apply International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adapted or interpreted for the public sector context. Where the *FReM* permits a choice of accounting policy, the accounting policy which is judged to be most appropriate to the particular circumstances of the Cabinet Office for the purpose of giving a true and fair view has been selected. The particular policies adopted by the Cabinet Office are described below. They have been applied consistently in dealing with items that are considered material to the accounts.
In addition to the primary statements prepared under IFRS, the *FReM* also requires the Department to prepare one additional primary statement. The *Statement of Parliamentary Supply* and supporting notes show outturn against Estimate in terms of the net resource requirement and the net cash requirement.
## 1.2 Basis Of Preparation
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention modified to account for the revaluation of investment property, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets, inventories and certain financial assets and liabilities at their value to the business by reference to their current costs.
## 1.3 Basis Of Consolidation
These accounts comprise a consolidation of the core Department and those Arm's length bodies which fall within the departmental boundary as defined in the *FReM* and make up the "Departmental Group".
Transactions between entities included in the consolidation are eliminated. A list of all those entities within the departmental boundary is given at Note 30. The Civil Service Commission accounts are not material to the Cabinet Office and therefore the core account is not disclosed in the Financial Statements and related Notes.
1.4
Going concern
The financial statements for the Cabinet Office have been prepared on the basis that the Department is a going concern. Spending Review 2010 and Spending Round 2013 set out budgets for 2014-15 and 2015- 16 respectively and Parliament has authorised spending for 2014-15 in the Main Estimate published within 'Central Government Supply Estimates 2014-15' HC 1233.
The financial statements for the Civil Service Commission have been prepared on the basis that it is a going concern which is financed by grant-in-aid from the Cabinet Office.
1.5
Restated amounts
Prior year comparatives are restated for changes in accounting policy applied retrospectively and for machinery of government transfers of function. Following a change in accounting policy applied retrospectively, the opening balance of the general fund is adjusted for the earliest prior period presented such that it is, as if, the new accounting policy had always been applied. Machinery of government changes which involve the transfer of functions or responsibilities between two or more government departments are accounted for as a business combination using merger accounting principles in accordance with the *FReM*. Accordingly, the results and cash flows relating to the in-year transferred functions or responsibilities are written in or out of the accounts from the start of the financial year. Prior-year comparatives are restated, with corresponding adjustments being made to the general fund. By so doing, it appears that the Department always existed in its present form. This enables the user of the accounts to make useful comparisons between the data from the prior year to the current year. Further details can be found at Note 2.
1.6
Transfer by Absorption
Transfers of function between public sector bodies (excluding those between central government departments to which merger accounting applies) are accounted for as transfers by absorption. In accordance with the *FReM,* the carrying value of the assets and liabilities of the combining bodies or functions are not adjusted to fair value on consolidation. There is no recognition of goodwill and no restatement of comparatives in the primary financial statements. The recorded amounts of net assets/liabilities are brought into the financial statements of the transferee and written out of those of the transferor from the date of transfer. The net asset/liability carrying value is recorded against nonoperating gain/loss through net expenditure. Any revaluation reserves are transferred in full with the remaining balance transferred to the General Fund. On 1 April 2013 the following functions transferred from the Cabinet Office to its executive nondepartmental public body, the Civil Service Commission: the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments and the House of Lords Appointments Commission, both advisory non-departmental public bodies and the Office of the Commissioner for Public Appointments. The reason for the transfer is to improve the transparency of the Civil Service Commission's financial reporting and to remove the need for complex recharges between four units under a single Accounting Officer.
1.7
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the date of the Statement of Financial Position (SoFP) and amounts reported for income and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates.
Information about the assumptions made about the future, and other major sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period, that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying value amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are disclosed. In the process of applying the Department's accounting policies, management has made the following judgements, apart from those involving estimations, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements: Public Finance Initiative (PFI) arrangements The classification of Public Finance Initiative (PFI) arrangements as service concession arrangements requires the Department to determine, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, whether it controls the infrastructure.
Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease The classification of long term arrangements as containing a lease requires the Department to determine, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, whether the arrangement depends on a specific asset or assets and whether the arrangement conveys a right to use the asset.
Operating lease commitments The classification of property, plant and equipment leases as operating or finance lease requires the Department to determine, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, whether it retains or acquires the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these assets; and, accordingly, whether the lease requires an asset and liability to be recognised in the SoFP. Impairment of assets The Department assesses whether there are any indicators of impairment for all financial and non-financial assets at each reporting date. Assets are tested for impairment when there are indicators that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Impairments that are due to a clear consumption of economic benefit are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Net Expenditure (SoCNE) rather than set against an available revaluation reserve. The treatment of impairments in accounts therefore corresponds with the treatment in departmental budgets and Estimates.
Development costs Initial capitalisation of costs is based on management's judgement that technological and economical feasibility is confirmed.
1.8
Operating segments
## Operating Segments Are Based On The Main Areas Of Business Activity And Align With Performance Reporting And Are Evaluated Regularly By The Chief Operating Decision Maker In Deciding How To Allocate Resources And In Assessing Performance. The Chief Operating Decision Maker Has Been Identified As The Accounting Officer And The Board. 1.9 Employee Benefits
Short term benefits
Where an employee has rendered service to the Department during the financial year, the Department recognises the undiscounted amount of short term employee benefits expected to be paid in exchange for that service as an expense. Performance bonuses are not accrued at 31 March since the appraisal process which determines performance pay is only finalised after the accounts have been prepared. Termination benefits
Termination benefits include lump sum payments and payments in lieu of notice. The Department makes provision for termination benefits in cases of compulsory redundancy on announcement of a detailed plan. The Department then accrues for termination benefits in cases of both voluntary and compulsory redundancy at the point at which the employee has accepted the offer made by the Department, and where appropriate, reverses the earlier provision.
1.10 Pensions
The majority of past and present employees of the core Department and its eNDPB, the Civil Service Commission, are covered by the provisions of the Principal Civil Service Pension Scheme (PCSPS). The defined benefit schemes are unfunded and are non-contributory except in respect of dependants' benefits. The Department recognises the expected cost of these elements on a systematic and rational basis over the period during which it benefits from employees' services by payment to the PCSPS of amounts calculated on an accruing basis. Liability for payment of future benefits is a charge on the PCSPS. In respect of the defined contribution schemes, the Department recognises the contributions payable for the year.
1.11 Administration and programme expenditure and income
The SoCNE is analysed between administration and programme income and expenditure. The classification of expenditure and income as administration or as programme follows the definition of administration costs set out in the Consolidated Budgeting Guidance issued by HM Treasury.
Administration costs and operating income reflect the costs of running the Department. Income is analysed between that which is allowed to be offset against gross administration costs in determining the outturn against the gross administration budget and that operating income which is not. Programme costs include payments of grants and grant-in-aid and other disbursements by the Department, as well as certain staff costs where they relate directly to service delivery.
## 1.12 Grants
Grants are unrequited payments made by the Department to outside bodies to reimburse expenditure on agreed items or functions and often only paid on statutory conditions being met. Grants may be resource or capital. The Department recognises grant expenditure at the point of cash disbursement. Grants-in-aid are financing payments made by the Department to a NDPB or other arm's length body. Grants-in-aid to NDPBs are recognised in the accounts of the core department only and eliminated on consolidation. The Department recognises grants-in-aid at the point of cash disbursement.
1.13 Revenue
Revenue is the gross inflow of economic benefits arising from the ordinary operating activities of the Department and is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. It is recognised when it is probable that any future economic benefit associated with the item of revenue will flow to the entity and when the amount of revenue can be measured with reliability; it may not be probable until the consideration is received or until an uncertainty is removed.
Operating Income Operating income is generated by the Department in pursuit of its activities and in managing its affairs. It is stated net of VAT. Operating income principally comprises fees and charges for services provided on a full-cost basis to external customers as well as public re-payment work and includes income due to the Consolidated Fund, which in accordance with the *FReM*, is treated as operating income. Royalties are recognised on an accruals basis. Dividends are recognised when the Department's right to receive payment has been established.
Non-operating income Non-operating income relates to the sale of capital assets and repayment of loan principal. It may be retained to finance related capital spending in cases where it has been described in the income ambit to the Estimate, otherwise it may not be retained and is due to the Consolidated Fund.
Consolidated Fund Extra Receipts (CFERS)
Income which is of a type not anticipated by the Department within its budgets and which therefore has not been described in the income ambit to the Estimate may not be retained for use by the Department and must be paid over to Treasury's Consolidated Fund. Such income is known as (CFERS). CFERS are accounted for on an accruals basis.
1.14 Value Added Tax
Most of the activities of the core Department are outside the scope of VAT and, in general output tax does not apply and input tax on purchases is not recoverable.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged to the relevant expenditure category or included in the capitalised purchase cost of fixed assets. Where output tax is charged or input VAT is recoverable, the amounts are stated net of VAT. The net amount due to, or from, HM Revenue and Customs in respect of VAT is included within receivables and payables within the SoFP. Its NDPB, the Civil Service Commission, is not registered for VAT purposes.
1.15 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is recognised initially at cost and thereafter carried at fair value less depreciation and impairment charged subsequent to the date of revaluation, except for art and antiques and properties surplus to requirement.
Cost comprises the amount of cash paid to acquire the asset and includes any costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. The capitalisation threshold for expenditure on property, plant and equipment is £5,000. Land and buildings are restated to fair value every five years (every three years for Sunningdale Park) using professional valuations prepared in accordance with current Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors Valuation Standards. In the intervening years, if material, changes in fair value are determined by reference to current prices on an active market for similar property. Residual interests in Private Finance Initiative (PFI) properties are included in property, plant and equipment at the amount of unitary charge allocated for the acquisition of the residual to the date of the SoFP plus an adjustment based on the net present value of the change in fair value of the residual as estimated at the start of the contract and its estimated fair value at the date of the SoFP.
Properties surplus to requirement are valued on the basis of open market value less any directly attributable selling costs where material.
Other operational assets are revalued to open market value where obtainable, or on the basis of depreciated replacement cost where market value is not obtainable. Published indices appropriate to the category of asset are normally used to estimate value.
Art and antiques, including some heritage assets, have been inherited by the Department since its earliest existence and are held mainly in 10 Downing Street and 70 Whitehall. They are subject to professional valuation on the basis of insurance value or mid–auction estimate every five years with the revaluation being taken into the revaluation reserve. They are not depreciated or indexed.
Any revaluation surplus is credited to the revaluation reserve except to the extent that it reverses a decrease in the carrying value of the same asset previously recognised in the SoCNE, in which case the increase is recognised in the SoCNE. A revaluation deficit is recognised in the SoCNE, except to the extent of any existing surplus in respect of that asset in the revaluation reserve.
## 1.16 Depreciation On Property, Plant And Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are depreciated at rates calculated to write them down to estimated residual
value on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Useful lives and residual values are reviewed annually and, where adjustments are required, these are made prospectively.
Asset lives are normally in the following ranges:
Freehold buildings including dwellings
25 to 55 years
Leasehold building improvements
over the remaining term of the lease
Plant and equipment
3 to 10 years
Furniture and fittings
5 to 7 years
IT hardware and office equipment
3 to 5 years
Vehicles
3 to 5 years The following exceptions apply to the asset lives for property, plant and equipment at the Sunningdale Park site in Berkshire: Freehold buildings including dwellings
25 to 60 years
Furniture and fittings
5 to 20 years
Assets in the course of construction are not depreciated until the assets are available for use. Residual interests in PFI contract assets are not depreciated until the asset reverts to the Department. No depreciation is provided on freehold land and items for collections since they have unlimited or very long estimated useful lives, nor on non-current assets held for sale. Assets continue to depreciate until they are derecognised, even if during that period they are idle.
The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If an asset is determined to be impaired, the asset is written down immediately to its recoverable amount.
## 1.17 Donated Assets
The value of donated assets is recognised as income and credited to the general fund. Any subsequent revaluation surplus is credited to the revaluation reserve except to the extent that it reverses a decrease in the carrying value of the same asset previously recognised in the SoCNE; in which case the increase is recognised in the SoCNE. A revaluation deficit is recognised in the SoCNE, except to the extent of any existing surplus in respect of that asset in the revaluation reserve. Gifts of ornaments and jewellery received by past and present Prime Ministers and their spouses are treated as donated assets within Art and Antiques and capitalised at their fair value on receipt. They are subject to professional valuation every five years. Gifts are not depreciated, since, by their nature, their useful economic life is indefinite.
The Civil Service Club is recognised as a donated asset. Members of the Civil Service and the Foreign Service contributed to the wedding present for Her Majesty the Queen and part of the sum subscribed was, by her wish, applied to some object of general benefit to the Civil and Foreign Services and consequently the Civil Service Club was purchased; see Note 8.
1.18
Investment Properties
Properties held to earn rentals, capital appreciation or both are recognised as investment properties at fair value.
Fair value of investment properties is based on professional valuations every five years (every three years for Sunningdale Park), or, if available for an individual investment property, by reference to an agreed sale price on an active market. In the intervening years, if material, changes in fair value are recognised by reference to current prices on an active market for similar property. Changes arising from valuations are recognised directly in the SoCNE. The Department does not depreciate its investment properties.
1.19
Intangible assets and amortisation
Intangible assets are defined as identifiable non-monetary assets without physical substance. Software that is embedded in computer-controlled equipment that cannot operate without that specific software is an integral part of the related hardware and is treated as property, plant and equipment.
Intangible assets are measured on initial recognition at cost. The capitalisation threshold for expenditure on intangible assets is £5,000. Following initial recognition, where an active market exists, intangible assets are carried at fair value at the SoFP. Where no active market exists, the Department uses published indices to assess the depreciated replacement cost.
The useful lives of intangible assets are assessed to be either finite or indefinite. All intangible assets are currently assessed to have a finite life of between three and five years and are assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortisation period and the amortisation method are reviewed at least at each financial year end. Assets in the course of construction are not amortised until the assets are brought into use.
Software licences Externally-acquired computer software licences are amortised over the shorter of the term of the licence and the useful economic life of three to five years. As reliable evidence of market value could not be obtained, these have not been re-valued.
Research and development Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure is recognised as an intangible asset when the Department can demonstrate: the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use; its intention to complete and its ability to use the asset, how the asset will generate future economic benefits; the availability of resources to complete the asset; and the ability to measure reliably the expenditure during development. Following initial recognition of development expenditure as an asset, where an active market exists, the asset is subsequently measured at fair value. Where no active market exists, the asset is carried at amortised replacement cost, indexed for relevant price increases, as a proxy for fair value. Expenditure which does not meet the criteria for capitalisation is treated as an operating cost in the year in which it is incurred.
## 1.20 Leases
Assets held under finance leases, which transfer to the Department substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to ownership of the leased item, are capitalised at the inception of the lease, with a corresponding liability being recognised for the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments.
Lease payments are apportioned between the reduction of the lease liability and finance charges in the SoCNE so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Assets held under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset and the lease term.
Leases where the lessor retains a significant portion of the risks and benefits of ownership of the asset are classified as operating leases and the rentals payable are charged to the SoCNE on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
1.21
Private Finance Initiative (PFI) Transactions
PFI transactions are accounted for in accordance with IFRIC 12 and IAS 17, as interpreted for the public sector by the *FReM.*
Where the Department has control over a PFI asset, or where the Department does not have control but the balance of risks and rewards of control is borne by the Department, the asset is recognised as a noncurrent asset. The Department recognises a liability for the capital value of the contract. That liability does not include interest charges and service elements, which are expensed annually to the Statement of Comprehensive Net Expenditure.
Assets are revalued in accordance with the revaluation policy for property, plant and equipment (Note 1.15) and intangible assets (Note 1.19). Liabilities are measured using the appropriate discount rate. Where the Department does not have control over the PFI asset and the balance of risks and rewards of control are borne by the PFI operator, the PFI payments are recorded as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Net Expenditure. Where the Department has contributed assets to a PFI operator, a prepayment for their fair value is recognised and amortised over the life of the PFI contract. Amortisation is recognised as an expense to the Statement of Comprehensive Net Expenditure. Where at the end of the PFI contract, a property reverts to the Department, the difference between the expected fair value of the residual on reversion and any agreed payment on reversion is built up over the life of the contract by capitalising part of the unitary charge each year. The values for both of these elements (the prepayment and the reversionary interest) are recognised as Property, Plant and Equipment. The element of a property covered by a lease granted to a PFI operator, and for which sub-leases are granted to the Department for continued occupation, is recognised as an investment property.
1.22 Financial assets
Financial assets are recognised when the Department becomes party to the contracts that give rise to them and are classified as: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, heldto-maturity investments, or as available-for-sale financial assets as appropriate. The Department determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition and, where allowed and appropriate, re-evaluates this designation at each financial year-end.
When financial assets are recognised initially, they are measured at fair value, except for loans, Public Dividend Capital (PDC) and other interests in public bodies outside the departmental boundary which are reported at historical cost less any impairment.
Fair value is determined as the transaction price plus, in the case of financial assets not at fair value through profit or loss, directly attributable transaction costs. The Department considers whether a contract contains an embedded derivative when the entity first becomes party to it. Embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract if the contract is not measured at fair value through profit or loss and when the economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contract.
The subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification. The following classifications are currently applicable:
Investments in other bodies Loans, Public Dividend Capital (PDC) and other interests in public bodies outside the departmental boundary are shown at historical cost, less any impairment.
In the past, the Cabinet Office has issued loans to the London Hostels Association, LHA London Ltd, which have been repaid during 2013-14.
Loans issued by the Cabinet Office to the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs' Fund LP are recognised at the point of the disbursement under the terms set out in the Limited Partnership Agreement. Bridges Social Entrepreneurs' Fund LP is an entity which lies outside the departmental boundary and consequently the loans are reported at historical cost less any impairment. The impairment is assessed as the difference between the cost of the loan issued and the Department's share of the net asset value as reported in the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs' Fund LP accounts. The net asset value equals the sum of the investment value at cost in the initial year and marketable value in subsequent years, adjusted for other net assets.
The Cabinet Office has Public Dividend Capital held within the Government Procurement Service. The Cabinet Office assesses at 31 March whether there is objective evidence that this asset is impaired in terms of whether there has been a decline in value below its cost. Dividends are recognised in the SoCNE when the Department's right to receive payment is established.
Loans and receivables Trade and other receivables are recognised and carried at the lower of their original invoiced value and recoverable amount. Where the time value of money is material, receivables are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Provision is made when there is objective evidence that the Department will not be able to recover balances in full. Balances are written off when the probability of recovery is assessed as being remote.
Financial assets are derecognised when the contract that gives rise to it is settled, sold, cancelled or expires.
1.23
Investments in associates
An associate is an entity in which the Department has significant influence, but not control or joint control, being the power to participate in, but not control, the financial and operating policy decisions of the associate investee. It is assumed that associate status exists where the Department has a shareholding of 20% or more.
Investments in associates are required to be accounted for using the equity method whereby an investment is initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted to reflect the Department's share of the net profit or loss, and thereby of the net assets, and of the other comprehensive income of the associate. Dividend distributions received from the associate reduce the carrying amount of the investment. Recoverable amounts are assessed for each individual associate. In cases where the associate's and the Department's reporting periods are not co-terminous but are no greater than 3 months apart, the Department uses the most recent audited financial statements of the associate in applying the equity method of accounting and, where necessary, makes adjustments for the effects of significant transactions up to the reporting date of the Department's financial statements. In cases where the associate's and the Department's accounting policies are not uniform, then where material, adjustments are made.
1.24
Assets classified as held for sale
Assets held for sale are assets where the carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. For an asset to be classified as held for sale, it must be available for immediate sale in its present condition, subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets; its sale must be highly probable; and it must genuinely be expected to be sold, not abandoned. Items of property, plant and equipment that are classified as held for sale are written down to fair value less costs to sell ( if lower than its carrying value), and are not depreciated further.
1.25 Inventories
Inventories of insignia are valued at the lower of original cost and replacement cost.
1.26 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash in the SoFP comprises cash at bank and in hand. Any overdraft will be recorded as a creditor. For the purpose of the Cash Flow Statement, cash and cash equivalents consist of cash, net of outstanding bank overdrafts.
1.27 Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss or other financial liabilities.
Other financial liabilities Trade and other payables are recognised at cost, which is deemed to be materially the same as the fair value. Where the time value of money is material, payables are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the contract that gives rise to it is settled, sold, cancelled or expires.
1.28 Provisions
A provision is recognised when the Department has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. If the effect is material, expected future cash flows are discounted using real rates set by HM Treasury which are short-term (0-1 year) -1.90% (2012-13: -1.80%), medium-term (1-5 years) -0.65% (2012-13: - 1%) and long-term (5+ years) 2.20% (2012-13: 2.20%) with effect from 31 March 2014. For early departure costs the Department establishes a provision for the estimated payments discounted by the Treasury discount rate of 1.80% (2012-13: 2.35%) in real terms. Where discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to borrowing costs is recognised as a finance cost.
1.29 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Contingent assets and liabilities are not recognised as liabilities or assets in the SoFP but are disclosed in the notes to the accounts in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets. A contingent liability is a possible obligation arising from past events whose existence will be confirmed only by uncertain future events or present obligation arising from past events that are not recognised because either an outflow of economic benefit is not probable or the amount of the obligation cannot be reliably measured. The Department discloses a contingent asset where it is probable there will be an inflow of economic benefits from an event whose outcome is uncertain. An estimate of the financial effect is indicated where possible. In addition to contingent assets and liabilities disclosed in accordance with IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, the Department discloses for parliamentary reporting and accountability purposes certain statutory and non-statutory contingent liabilities where the likelihood of a transfer of economic benefit is remote, but which have been reported to Parliament in accordance with the requirements of *Managing Public Money*.
Where the time value of money is material, contingent liabilities which are required to be disclosed under IAS 37 are stated at discounted amounts and the amount reported to Parliament separately noted.
Contingent liabilities that are not required to be disclosed by *IAS 37* are stated at the amounts reported to Parliament.
1.30 Impending application of newly issued accounting standards not yet effective
Certain new standards, interpretations and amendments to existing standards have been published that the Department will be required to apply on or after 1 April 2014 or later periods, following EU-adoption and as applied by the *FReM*. The Department provides disclosure that it has not yet applied a new accounting standard, and known or reasonably estimable information relevant to assessing the possible impact that initial application of the new standard will have on the Department's financial statements. The Department will assess the impact of these standards.
Effective 1 January 2013:
IFRS 10 'Consolidated Financial Statements'
Definition of control requires more judgement, notably of agency-principal relationships. IFRS 11 'Joint Arrangements'
This provides a principles-based definition of joint arrangements (joint operations or joint ventures) based on rights and obligations. Proportional consolidation accounting for joint ventures is no longer permitted (only equity accounting).
IFRS 12 'Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities'
This requires more disclosure of the financial effects on, and risks to, the consolidating entity.
IAS 27 'Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements' - Amendment IAS 28 'Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures' - Amendment IFRS 13 'Fair Value Measurement'
This will provide consistent guidance on fair value measurement for all relevant balances and transactions covered by IFRS.

The segmental analysis has been prepared to align with the reporting of the Cabinet Office's structure, where units within the Department have been organised into pillars, which are represented by the segments shown above. Financial information is reported through a regular Performance Report, which adopts the segmental analysis shown above. The Performance Report is reviewed by the Cabinet Office Board, chaired by the Minister for the Cabinet Office, and also the Executive Management Committee
(EMC), chaired by the Accounting Officer.
The segmental analysis total net outturn in Resource Departmental Expenditure Limit agrees to SOPS2.1. Overall outturn at SOPS2.1 includes Resource Annually Managed Expenditure and is reconciled to net operating costs at SOPS3.1. Explanations on year on year variance may be found in the Financial Review section. Corporate Services Group net DEL outturn as reported in SOPS2.1 is allocated across operating segments in proportion to their gross expenditure and gross income, except for Transactional Shared Services.
## Support To The Cabinet, Prime Minister And Deputy Prime Minister
This segment provides support to the Cabinet, to drive the coherence, quality and delivery of policy and operations across departments, and provides support to the Prime Minister and Deputy Prime Minister, to define and deliver the government's objectives, implement political and constitutional reform, and drive forward from the centre particular cross-departmental priority issues.
Political and Constitutional Reform
This segment covers the work of Political and Constitutional Reform, which provides support to the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Political and Constitutional Reform in delivering the wide-ranging political and constitutional reform agenda set out in the coalition's Programme for Government. Political and Constitutional Reform delivers day-to-day policy and operational work on issues relating to the constitutional structure of the UK and electoral law, policy and conduct and also includes the Office of the Privy Council, and supports ministerial sponsorship of the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (IPSA) and the Boundary Commissions for England and Wales. The segment also covers the implementation of individual electoral registration to tackle electoral fraud and improve the system of voter registration which will come into force in 2014.
## 3. Statement Of Net Resource Outturn By Operating Segment (Continued) National Security
This segment covers the work of the National Security Secretariat (NSS), responsible for defence and foreign affairs as well as intelligence, security and resilience issues. NSS advises the Prime Minister and ministers on the Government's response to cross-cutting strategic issues relating to intelligence and leads on intelligence assessment and priorities through the central intelligence machinery. It coordinates the Government's response to civil emergencies, terrorist incidents and international crises. It is also responsible for the Single Intelligence Account, which funds the work of the UK intelligence agencies. It works in partnership with all government units with a security or intelligence remit as well as the security and intelligence agencies.
Efficiency and Reform
This segment covers the work carried out by the areas previously combined together as the Efficiency and Reform Group (ERG). ERG was created in early 2010-11, to bring together a range of functions previously scattered between departments to lead and drive substantial changes and reforms in Civil Service HR, ICT, commercial and procurement, estates and other support functions. The Efficiency and Reform Group (ERG) works in partnership with HM Treasury and government departments to deliver efficiencies, savings and reforms on behalf of UK taxpayers. ERG aims to transform the way public services are delivered, improve user experience and support UK growth. ERG includes Government Property Unit (GPU) and the Government Digital Service.
The Civil Service Reform Group is responsible for delivering the Civil Service Reform Plan (published June
2012) which set out a series of specific and practical actions for reform, which, when implemented, will lead to real change for the Civil Service. It will equip a smaller Civil Service to meet current and future challenges, including the demands of public sector reform and rising consumer expectations, as well as economic and financial challenges.
Government Innovation Group
The Government Innovation Group develops new approaches to tackle social problems in order that public services can deliver better with less. It is made up of Civil Society, which now also has lead responsibility for Youth Policy, Transparency, Analysis and Insight, Open Policy Making teams and for most of the year Behavioural Insights. Transactional Shared Services
The Cabinet Office became accountable for the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) Shared Service Centre (SSC) from 1 April 2013 until the Shared Services Connected Ltd associate was created from 1 November 2013. The programme costs and income relating to Transactional Shared Services are for monies paid and collected by the Cabinet Office in relation to the services provided by SSC. Independent Business Units
This segment covers the Independent Business Units which are hosted by the Cabinet Office. The Cabinet Office is often tasked to lead with inquiries, reports, and other areas of work which require independence, but which work across a number of Departments. The work covered by this segment includes the Iraq Inquiry, Detainee Inquiry, Committee for Standards in Public Life and the Intelligence and Security Committee.
Civil Service Commission
This is an executive non-departmental public body whose accounts are consolidated with the Cabinet Office; see Note 30.

2 The net amount charged to Programme budgets is £52.565m (2012-13: £32.756m) as shown within the Statement of Comprehensive Net Expenditure During the year, costs of £20,019,716 were incurred in respect of pensions (2012-13 Restated: £19,055,524). Of this amount, £19,905,719 (2012-13 Restated: £18,976,814) was borne by the core department and £113,997 was borne by the Civil Service Commission (2012-13: £78,710). The following analysis is in respect of the core department: The Principal Civil Service Pension Scheme (PCSPS) is an unfunded multi-employer defined benefit scheme but the Cabinet Office is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities. The scheme actuary valued the scheme as at 31 March 2007. Details can be found in the Accounts of the Cabinet Office: Civil Superannuation (www.civilservice.gov.uk/pensions). For 2013-14, employers' contributions of £19,034,241 were payable to the PCSPS (2012-13 Restated: £17,432,276) at one of four rates in the range 16.7% to 24.3% of pensionable pay, based on salary bands. The scheme Actuary reviews employer contributions usually every four years following a full scheme valuation. The contribution rates are set to meet the cost of the benefits accruing during 2013-14 to be paid when the member retires and not the benefits paid during this period to existing pensioners.
## 4. Staff Numbers And Related Costs (Continued)
Employees can opt to open a partnership pension account, a stakeholder pension with an employer contribution. Employers' contributions of £116,216 (2012-13: £100,461) were paid to one or more of the panel of three appointed stakeholder pension providers. Employer contributions are age-related and range from 3% to 12.5% of pensionable pay. Employers also match employee contributions up to 3 % of pensionable pay. In addition, employer contributions of £8,750 (2012-13: £6,658), 0.8% of pensionable pay, were payable to the PCSPS to cover the cost of the future provision of lump sum benefits on death-in-service and illhealth retirement of these employees. Contributions due to the partnership pension providers at the reporting period date were £11,814 (2012- 13: £7,123). Contributions prepaid at that date were £Nil (2012-13: £Nil). Special advisers' pension costs incurred during the year were £746,512 (2012-13: £496,352). In 2012-13, the Department recognised a liability to pay a debt to the Trustees of the Labour Party Superannuation Society in the amount of £941,067. It represented a funding shortfall for benefits built up by special advisers and was due from the Crown following its cessation as a participating employer in its pension scheme. This shortfall was settled during 2013-14. During the year three individuals (2012-13: one individual) retired early on ill-health grounds; the total additional accrued pension liabilities in the year amounted to £28,754 (2012-13: £2,610).
Average number of persons employed
The average number of whole time equivalent persons employed during the year was as follows. These figures include those working in the Department as well as other bodies included within the consolidated departmental accounts.

## 7.1 Fees And Charges
The analysis below provides details of the services for which a fee is charged. The information is provided for fees and charges purposes, not for IFRS 8 purposes. The **financial objective** of Transactional Shared Services:
As a result of various investigations and recommendations relating to the sharing of back office functions across government, an initiative was identified to set up a second Independent Shared Service Centre (ISSC2). The business case demonstrated that the best value for money delivery model for ISSC2 would be an associate partnership between government and a Private Sector Partner. As a first step towards this, on 1 April 2013, accountability for the provision of IT, employee and financial transactional services to other public sector bodies transferred from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) until the Shared Services Connected Limited traded from 1 November 2013; see Note 17.

Property, plant and equipment (continued) Valuation
Land and Buildings
The Valuation Office Agency has determined fair value on the basis of market value but on the assumption that the property is sold as part of the continuing enterprise in occupation. For 'in use' nonspecialised property assets, fair value has been interpreted as market value for existing use. The Valuation Office Agency (VOA), independent chartered surveyors and members of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS), valued all properties on the basis of fair value as at 31 March 2014 except for 10-12 Downing Street which was valued at 31 March 2013. Due to the unusual nature of the size, location and property category the valuation of 10-12 Downing Street is subject to valuation uncertainty.
Sunningdale Park The Valuation Office Agency valued Sunningdale Park, Ascot, Berkshire, as at 31 March 2014 on the basis of total worth in existing use reflecting the infrastructure. A breakdown of the carrying value of assets under the PFI contract is detailed at Note 15. Sunningdale Park is revalued every three years.
Art and Antiques Townley Valuation Services Limited valued art and antiques, including furniture, carpets, clocks, silver and ceramics situated in properties within the Whitehall Estate in January 2011 on the basis of insurance value being the likely cost of replacing the items.
Rosebery's Auctioneers & Valuers valued art and antiques, including antique and other furniture, silver, plate and objects situated at The Hawkhills, Easingwold, near York in February 2010 at an average of the lower and higher figures of a presale auction estimate.
Included within Art and Antiques are gifts to past and present Prime Ministers. These were valued by J.
M. McCarthy Limited, jewellers and silversmiths in March 2010 on the basis of best estimate of the price at auction.
All Other Tangible Non-Heritage Assets All other tangible non-heritage fixed assets are re-valued annually using indices provided by the Office of National Statistics.
Assets under construction
Assets under construction of £20.868 million (2012-13: £16.849 million) include:
£14.252 million (2012-13: £13.795 million) spent on refurbishment to Whitehall properties which has yet to be completed; and £6.616 million (2012-13: £3.054 million) spent on IT hardware and software developments which have yet to be completed. Leasehold improvements Included within Land and Buildings are improvements with a carrying amount of £0.662 million (2012-13:
£0.715 million) relating to a leasehold property in London at 35 Great Smith Street.

Following the closure of the National School of Government on 31 March 2012, the Department retained freehold of the site at Sunningdale Park and recognised it as an investment property from 1 April 2012.
Sunningdale Park is recognised at fair value which equates to market value for existing use of £2.288
million (2012-13: £2.265 million).

## 15. Commitments Under Pfi Contracts 15.1 On-Statement Of Financial Position
Fujitsu Services Ltd
The provision of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) services to the Cabinet Office included certain infrastructure assets for use in delivering public services that fall within the scope of IFRIC 12 service concession arrangements. In June 2007 the Cabinet Office entered into a contract with Fujitsu Services Limited (FSL) for the provision of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) services over a 5 year term until June 2012. The contract terminated in June 2012. The services included the provision of IT equipment throughout the life of the contract. Those assets provided on an exclusive basis were recognised as property, plant and equipment at the time they were brought into use. The total amount charged in the Statement of Comprehensive Net Expenditure in respect of the Fujitsu ICT contract was £Nil (2012-13: £2.418m). See Note 6. The contract with Fujitsu expired on 30th June 2012. The Department now receives ICT services through HM Treasury under a memorandum of understanding. Sunningdale Park site
Although the National School of Government closed on 31 March 2012, Cabinet Office has retained the site at Sunningdale Park for the present and is examining how the existing facilities can best be utilised going forwards. The site is operated under a PFI contract with a term of 30 years from 13 May 2002.
The National School gave a lease to the private sector partner for the office buildings against which sub
leases were granted to the National School for their continuing use. This asset was recognised as property,
plant and equipment at a carrying value of £2.133 million at 31 March 2012. The asset was reclassified as an
investment property on 1 April 2012. Its carrying value at 31 March 2014 is £2.288 million (2012-13: £2.265
million). See Note 9.
The National School also gave a lease for the rest of the site upon which the private sector partner has
undertaken an initial capital investment of £12 million in new training facilities.
As a consequence of these agreements:
Deferred asset
A pre-payment was established for the fair value of the property which was contributed to the scheme at the
commencement of the contract. This deferred asset is recognised as property, plant and equipment and
written off over 15 years. Its value at 31 March 2014 is £2.195 million (2012-13: £2.926 million); see Note 8.
Reversionary interest
A further asset is recognised for the Department's residual interest in the training facilities which revert to the
Cabinet Office at no cost at the end of the contract. The accruing residual interest, built up over the term of
the contract by capitalising part of the contract payments, is recognised as property, plant and equipment.
Additional interest accrued in 2013-14 was £1.070 million (2012-13: £Nil). The value of the residual interest
at 31 March 2014 is £11.612 million (2012-13: £10.542 million).
Whilst these two individual transactions reflect the underlying contractual arrangements, the Cabinet Office
retains ownership of the training facilities throughout the period of the contract, the value of which at 31
March 2014 is reflected in the combined carrying value of the deferred asset and reversionary interest -
recognised as property, plant and equipment - of £13.807 million (2012-13: £13.468 million); see Note 8.
Combined Value
The combined carrying value of the office buildings and training facilities is £16.095 million (2012-13:
£15.733 million). This is the sum of the Dwellings balances and Land and Buildings balances in Note 8
Property, Plant and Equipment and Note 9 Investment Properties.
## Charge To The Statement Of Comprehensive Net Expenditure And Future Commitments Sunningdale Park Site The Total Amount Charged In The Statement Of Comprehensive Net Expenditure In Respect Of Pfi Transactions Was £968,485 (2012-13: £2,242,597) As Disclosed At Note 5.

Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP is constituted under a Limited Partnership Agreement dated 21
August 2009 and is managed by Bridges Ventures LLP. The Fund invests in social enterprises that have the
potential to generate scaleable and sustainable social impacts. The Fund currently has a committed capital
of £11.75 million and has a life of 10 years (ending on 27 August 2019) unless terminated earlier in certain
circumstances specified in the Limited Partnership Agreement.
The Department originally agreed to invest up to £5 million in the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP, by
match funding the investment that the Fund Manager secures from private investors. The Cabinet Office
increased its commitment from £3,640,534 to £3,909,748 for the lifetime of the Fund, which in accordance
with the terms set in the Limited Partnership Agreement denotes the Department's commitment as at 31
March 2010 to be £3,909,748, constituting a 33.27% share of the Fund. This commitment level has now
been fixed.
The investment period for the remaining drawdown is currently estimated to end in 2016, but may be
extended at the discretion of Bridges Ventures LLP subject to an Investors Ordinary Consent. The
investments in the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP are valued by the Fund Manager using the
International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation (IPEV) Guidelines. See Notes 19 and 29.

## 18. Financial Instruments
As the cash requirements of the Department are met through the Estimates process, financial instruments play a more limited role in creating and managing risk than would apply to a non-public sector body of a similar size. The majority of financial instruments relate to contracts to buy non-financial items in line with the Department's expected purchase and usage requirements and the Department is therefore exposed to little credit, liquidity or market risk. The Department's investment in the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP subjects the Department to credit and market risks. The Cabinet Office appointed Capital for Enterprise Limited (CfEL), an asset management business, to assist in the establishment of the Fund. The loans issued to the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP are invested as part of an investment portfolio to deliver both financial returns and social and environmental benefits. The disposal of an investment by the Fund may differ from its valuation and the difference could be significant. The loans are subject to an annual impairment review which is carried out by Bridges Ventures Ltd. See Notes 11 and 19.
The Department holds public dividend capital in the Government Procurement Service. This financial asset is carried at historical cost less any impairment recognised. Information on the Government Procurement Service, a body outside the departmental boundary, is included at Note 19 and 30.
19. Other financial assets
The Core Department holds investments which include loans to the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP
which invests in social enterprises and public dividend capital held in the Government Procurement Service.

## 24. Provisions For Liabilities And Charges (Continued) 24.1 Early Departures
The Core Department meets the additional costs of benefits beyond the normal Principal Civil Service Pension Scheme (PCSPS) benefits in respect of employees who retire early by paying the required amounts annually to the PCSPS over the period between early departure and normal retirement date. The Department provides for early departure costs when the early retirement programme becomes binding on the Department. Payments are made monthly and it is anticipated that all payments will have been made against the provision by 2020-21. During the year 2013-14 there were no new cases of early departures, although top ups of £0.121 million were made to the existing provisions. Those early exit packages whose costs have been accrued in year are disclosed at Note 4.
## 24.2 Specific Dilapidations
A specific dilapidation provision is made where the Department is required to bring a property into a good state of repair at the end of a lease. A provision is made for the estimated costs of these repairs based on a rate per square metre which is updated each year on advice from a facilities management company. A
provision is also written back when not required.
During 2013-14 provision of £1,191,410 was written back in respect of Hercules House. The expiry dates of the remaining leases range from 2016-17 to 2026-27.
## 24.3 Onerous Contracts
The Government Property Unit manages the Government's property portfolio which includes vacant leasehold properties for which provision has been made for estimated payments discounted by the Treasury's discount rates for general provisions. Payments include rent, rates, service charges, demolition work and property management charges.
During the financial year £261,668 was utilised. The provision was topped up by £5,322. There was a write back of £2,018,858 being no longer required; £1,660,175 of which related to County Farm. This was due to the change in expectation regarding the timing of the demolition of the buildings on site. The remaining £358,683 written back relates to Birch House, Willow House and Kings Court which generated increased revenues and fewer costs. The lease expiry dates of the remaining contracts range from 2014-
15 to 2016-17.
25. Contingent asset - Futurebuilders programme
The Futurebuilders Fund provided loan financing, often combined with grants and professional support, to civil society organisations in England needing investment to help them bid for, win and deliver public service contracts. The Modernisation Fund provided interest-free loans to help organisations be more resilient to the impact of the economic downturn. Both Funds are closed for new applications.

The Cabinet Office has a contingent asset of £102.675 million (2012-13: £107.712 million) which is reported as Restricted Funds in the 2013 -14 accounts of Futurebuilders England Limited (FBE). FBE entered into a portfolio holding contract with the Cabinet Office to oversee the investment portfolio of the Futurebuilders and Modernisation Funds. The Cabinet Office contracts with The Social Investment Business Limited to manage the loan book. The contract has been re-awarded for a three year period from April 2013 with a possible six years extension period. At the end of the contracts the Funds will revert to the Cabinet Office or a third party appointed by the Cabinet Office. The service agreement contains a novation clause which applies to the Futurebuilders Restricted Funds and which gives the Cabinet Office the entitlement to assign, novate or otherwise dispose of its rights and obligations under the agreement or novate the agreement itself to any other body. Further information about Futurebuilders England Limited (Registered company number 05066676) can be found at: www.futurebuilders-england.org.uk
26.
Contingent Liabilities
In June 2010 the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) was transferred from HM Treasury to the Cabinet Office under machinery of government (MOG) arrangements whereby terms and conditions of those transferring were protected. OGC had comprised units including the Government Property Unit, oversight of Major Projects and the development of collaborative procurement and procurement policy. An Employment Tribunal claim was brought by three former members of OGC and the PCS Trade Union against the Cabinet Office with regard to expected pay progression, based on a 2008 pay deal negotiated with PCS by HMT. The Employment Tribunal found in favour of the claimants and the Cabinet Office was notified of this on 15th January 2013, and following an appeal lodged by Cabinet Office an Employment Appeal Tribunal upheld the Tribunal decision in favour of the claimants on 13 December 2013.
There are up to 290 former OGC members of staff who are affected by this Employment Tribunal ruling.
The ruling relates to the two year pay deal entered into in 2008 which offered pay progression points to OGC staff at two, four, six and eight years' continuous service in pay band and having the qualifying level of performance. This only affected OGC staff and not the rest of staff within the Cabinet Office. The estimated cost of the initial backdated pay progression payments to date is approximately £160,000.
Agreement has been reached with a number of staff that they are due payment, however, the value and timing of these payments has yet to be agreed. In addition to this, there is also a number of staff where consultations with staff have not yet commenced or where agreement of a liability has yet been reached.
27. Contingent liabilities not required to be disclosed under IAS 37 but included for parliamentary reporting and accountability purposes
The Cabinet Office has given the following indemnity whose amount is unquantifiable and which, within the meaning of IAS 37, is not a contingent liability, since the likelihood of a transfer of economic benefit in settlement is too remote.
Indemnity for Returning Officers at the European Parliamentary Elections May 2014 The Cabinet Office has provided an indemnity to Regional and Local Returning Officers for the European Parliamentary Elections which were held on 22 May 2014. The indemnity is for amounts which are not covered under the existing insurance policies which Regional and Local Returning Officers hold. The Department will also certificate the Returning Officers under The Employers' Liability (Compulsory Insurance) Regulations 1998 in respect of any liability to their employees. The indemnity and certificate will remain in place to provide cover to Regional and Returning Officers for any by-elections which are held prior to the next scheduled European Parliamentary election in 2019. A parliamentary minute was laid on 8 April 2014.

The Cabinet Office is a sponsor of the Civil Service Commission, an executive non-departmental public body shown in Note 30. Balances and transactions between the department and its executive nondepartmental public body have been eliminated on consolidation and are not disclosed in this note. The Cabinet Office has four associate companies, MyCSP Limited, Shared Services Connected Limited, AXELOS Limited and Behavioural Insights Team Limited. The Cabinet Office received pension administration and other services from MyCSP Limited which are funded by a charge on Civil Superannuation employer pension contributions. Commencing November 2013, the Cabinet Office received payroll, HR, finance and procurement services from Shared Services Connected Limited. The Cabinet Office transferred its 51 'B' Ordinary shares in AXELOS Limited to Capita Business Services Limited, its immediate parent. The ultimate parent undertaking of AXELOS Limited is Capita plc which holds an indirect interest in Capita Resourcing Limited with whom the Cabinet Office has transacted in year. Programme evaluation services were received from The Behavioural Insights Team Limited (see Other Administration Costs Note 5, Income Note 7 and Investments in Associates Note 17). The Cabinet Office makes loans and has loan commitments to the Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP which is managed by Bridges Ventures Limited. The Fund invests in social enterprises that have the potential to generate scaleable and sustainable social impacts. Bridges Social Entrepreneurs Fund LP is outside the departmental boundary and is therefore not classed as an associate (see Notes 16 and 19).
The Cabinet Office has responsibility for setting and reimbursing the fees and expenses of Returning Officers conducting the polls at Parliamentary elections in England and Wales. No members of staff within the Cabinet Office and the Department for Communities and Local Government had undertaken any material transactions with Returning Officers. The ministerial titles and names of all ministers who had responsibilities for the department during the year are included in the Governance section. No minister, board member, key manager or other related parties had undertaken any material transactions with the Cabinet Office during the year. The remuneration of ministers and board members and senior managers is set out in the Remuneration Report.
## 30. Entities Within The Departmental Boundary
The departmental boundary in this context relates to the boundary of the Departmental Accounts. The following bodies have been designated for consolidation into the Cabinet Office Estimates and Accounts.
Executive Non-Departmental Public Bodies (eNDPBs) Executive Non-Departmental Public Bodies are consolidated with the accounts of the core department. eNDPBs can be established in statute. They carry out administrative, regulatory and commercial functions; they employ their own staff, are allocated their own budgets, are self-accounting and produce their own accounts. The Cabinet Office has one executive non-department public body; the Civil Service Commission. The annual report and accounts for the Civil Service Commission (which includes the expenditure of the Advisory Committee on Business Appointments, the House of Lords Appointments Commission and the Office of the Commissioner for Public Appointments, for which the Civil Service Commission provides secretariat services) are published separately. Further information can be found at the links:
Civil Service Commission Annual Report and Accounts http://civilservicecommission.independent.gov.uk
Advisory Non-Departmental Public Bodies (ANDPBs) The Cabinet Office sponsors a number of advisory non-departmental public bodies that have links to the Department but whose work does not contribute directly to the achievement of the Department's objectives and whose funding arrangements can be separate. These ANDPBs provide independent and expert advice to ministers on particular topics of interest. ANDPBs of the Cabinet Office include:
Boundary Commission for England
Boundary Commission for Wales
Committee on Standards in Public Life Security Vetting Appeals Panel Senior Salaries Review Body Advisory Committee on Business Appointments House of Lords Appointments Commission Main Honours Advisory Committee (Honours and Appointments Secretariat) Other The Office of the Commissioner for Public Appointments is not a Non Departmental Public Body however, its spending falls within the Cabinet Office budget and therefore it is listed in the Designation Order.
## 30.1 Entities Outside The Departmental Boundary Executive Agency - Government Procurement Service Government Procurement Service Was An Executive Agency And A Trading Fund (Set Up Under The Government Trading Funds Act 1973) Of The Cabinet Office. The Overall Priority Was To Provide Savings For The Uk Public Sector Through Centralised Procurement Agreements.
In July 2013, the Minister for the Cabinet Office announced that a new Crown Commercial Service would be created to act on behalf of the Crown to drive savings for the taxpayer and improve the quality of commercial and procurement activity across the public sector. It brings together, into one organisation, Government Procurement Service (GPS), the commercial functions of the Cabinet Office and commercial activity related to common goods and services currently undertaken by departments. The Crown Commercial Service became a legal entity on 2 April 2014 and it is an Executive Agency and Trading Fund of the Cabinet Office. Services provided by the Crown Commercial Service include direct buying, an advisory service and the UK Government's procurement policy function. Further information can be found at Note 19 and at the links:
Government Procurement Service Government Procurement Service Annual Report and Accounts Other Cabinet Office's role is to act as the principal point of liaison within government for the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman and it is non-funded.
Cabinet Office Public Bodies The Cabinet Office produces a comprehensive annual Public Bodies directory providing details of NDPBs and similar public bodies. The directory can be found at the link:

1. Purpose of the Paper 1.1
In May 2013, new Commissioners' Directions (CDs) on reporting of Passenger Information for customs purposes came into effect. The General Aviation (GA) Trade Sector identified difficulties in complying with the advance notification timescales in the CDs and, as a result, the time limits specified in the CDs are not being enforced. 1.2
The Government recognises the problems facing UK GA and is committed to ensuring that customs requirements do not impede opportunities for GA to continue to contribute to the UK's growth. GA poses particular challenges for the customs authorities because of the unscheduled and unpredictable nature of the traffic. The Government is committed to delivering the smoothest passage possible for legitimate pilots, passengers and goods, with the intention that UK Customs is recognised globally as the world's leading Customs authority for facilitating legitimate trade. 1.3
Therefore the purpose of this discussion paper is to consider the new proposed CDs and the advance notification timescales. 1.4
The Directions state: 'unless otherwise agreed with the Commissioners'. This effectively ensures that existing arrangements for scheduled airlines and shipping traffic remain as before these CDs were published. Neither do they affect the current reporting requirements for pleasure craft or ferry companies. 2. Background
2.1
The Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 (CEMA) provides for Commissioners' Statutory Directions, which are a form of secondary legislation that lay down detailed rules of procedure or requirements.
2.3
The CDs are made under CEMA sections 35(1) and 64(1) in 2001 to set out the requirement for passenger information, for customs purposes. Since then the Directions have formed the basis of operational practice.
2.3
There is a Customs Civil Penalty for a failure to report, with a maximum penalty of £1000. The use of regulatory civil penalties to underpin customs requirements is well-established and uncontroversial and they provide a method for penalising noncompliance with customs law where criminal prosecution would not be appropriate. When faced with non-compliance all the circumstances are considered and the most appropriate response is used. Penalties are not issued automatically or as a first resort.
2.4
The information is required so that customs officers can (a) monitor the travel movements of known and suspected criminals in and out of the country and (b) apply profiling techniques developed over many years to flights and maritime journeys (and their passengers) leading to the identification of those who may be involved in smuggling prohibited/restricted goods or dutiable products. 2.5
In early 2012 General Aviation (GA) reports could be submitted via the
'Collaborative Business Portal' (CBP). As a result of this, in May 2013, new CDs came into effect. However, because of the difficulties identified with the advance notification timescales, the time limits specified in the CDs are not being enforced. HMRC is now proposing to revise the CDs with new advance notification timescales.
2.6
Directive 2010/65/EU on reporting formalities for ships arriving in/or departing on ports of the Member States is due to come into force in 2016. This may result in further changes being necessary to the CDs. However, there are ongoing discussions with the Commission over the implementation of Directive 2010/65/EU on reporting formalities for ship arriving in/or departing from ports of the Member States. Therefore, we will not review maritime arrangements, including Commissioners' Directions, until it is known how the Directive will be implemented.
3. Airport Designations
3.1
All Aircraft, save as permitted (by the Commissioners of HMRC which includes Border Force), are required to land at a 'customs and excise' airport when entering from a third country. Once designated, the airport is required to operate under a full customs Examination Station Approval (ESA). It is subject to any conditions laid down in an extant ESA but there are no customs restrictions on the types of traffic that may be handled there.
3.2
This requirement is disapplied for the purpose of EU flights. For customs purposes, when using an airport which does not have any type of designation or a Certificate of Agreement, operators can only fly within Great Britain and Northern Ireland or to/from destinations within the European Union (EU). 3.3
To facilitate trade and provide a wider range of airports to fly into from outside the EU, HMRC uses the 'save as permitted' to provide for 'Certificate of Agreement' (CoA) airports. Whilst they are not subject to a formal ESA, they operate under a lower level formal agreement (which allows them to handle a limited range of traffic from third-countries, including the Channel Islands). 3.4
Non-designated airports covered by Certificates of Agreement are not open generally for passenger or freight activities. An operator or pilot of a general aviation aircraft is required to report in relation to international or Channel Islands journeys to or from the UK, unless they are travelling outbound directly from the UK to a destination in the European Union.
4. Proposed Changes 4.1
This Discussion Paper sets out the proposed changes to the CDs for consideration. The proposed approach to be taken is that the timescale for advance notification for all airports will be:
(a) in the case of arrivals, no later than *two hours* before departure from the
last destination before the ship, aircraft or train arrives in the United Kingdom.
(b) in the case of departures, no later than *two hours* before departure from
the United Kingdom.
4.2
The information will be required to be provided by granting direct access to relevant computer systems, by electronic transmission or, where neither of these is possible, by delivering the particulars in writing, in a readable form and in the prescribed manner. 4.3
As a result of harmonising these timescales at all airports, the GA sector will no longer have to identify what airports are CoA or designated C&E airports.
5. Other considerations 5.1
The Government is committed to reducing the regulatory burden on GA and these timescales will harmonise the timescales with those envisaged as being required under the new Counter Terrorism & Security Act (CTSA). 5.2
On 29 August the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre raised the UK threat level from SUBSTANTIAL to SEVERE, meaning that a terrorist attack is "highly likely". On 1
September 2014, the Prime Minister announced that legislation would be brought forward in a number of areas. The Counter-Terrorism and Security Act 2015 received Royal Assent on 12 February 2015. 5.3
The measures will strengthen security arrangements in relation to the border and to aviation, maritime and rail transport. These provisions would extend the scope for authority to carry ('no fly') schemes, allow the Secretary of State to make regulations in relation to passenger, crew and service information and to give directions in relation to security measures to aviation, shipping or rail transport operating to the UK. 5.4
The CTSA 2015 will also include enabling provisions for regulations that will require advance notification for arriving and departing GA aircraft for police and immigration purposes. The detail of the requirement (data content, timescales for advance notification, form and manner of data submission) will be in regulations. The Home Office will consult publicly in the development of the regulations and will aim for as much harmonisation as possible between the reporting frameworks. 5.5
This will reduce the burden on the GA sector as, not only will they no longer have to identify the difference between CoA and C&E designated airports, they will also no longer have to try to identify different timescales and requirements. They will be able to fly into the UK secure in the knowledge that they are complying with all requirements from the Law Enforcement agencies at the Border. 5.6
This information obtained via the CDs will enable Border Force to carry out customs controls and safety and security checks on goods, people and means of transport at the Border in accordance with legal obligations and risk priorities.
6. Questions 6.1
The Government would like to find a solution that balances a customs service that reflects modern international trade practices with delivering a safe, secure and effective Border, featuring safeguards and sanctions that help reduce the tax gap, stop prohibited goods from causing harm, and protect UK Borders from other threats. 6.2
To help us resolve these issues, we are seeking views on the following:
(a) Would the advance notification timescales, detailed above, in relation to
both 'designated customs & excise airports', and 'certificate of agreement
airports' achieve this objective? If not, why not?
(b) Do you think there could be other ways that the Government could achieve this objective?
7. Timetable for next actions by Government
What you tell us will be taken into account when the Government decides how to proceed. Therefore, a statement will be made as soon as possible after the end of Consultation.
8. The Consultation Process This consultation is being conducted in line with the Tax Consultation Framework. There are 5 stages to tax policy development:
Stage 1 Setting out objectives and identifying options.
Stage 2 Determining the best option and developing a framework for
implementation including detailed policy design.
Stage 3 Drafting legislation to effect the proposed change.
Stage 4 Implementing and monitoring the change. Stage 5 Reviewing and evaluating the change.
This consultation is taking place during stage 3 of the process. The purpose of the consultation is to seek views on draft legislation in order to confirm, as far as possible, that it will achieve the intended policy effect with no unintended effects.

## 1 Introduction 1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this guide is to cover the main issues an organisation needs to address when defining its required service level from an offsite storage contract for current or semi-current records offsite with a commercial contractor. The document can either be used as a starting point for developing a specification or as a means to assess, validate and refine pre-existing requirements. You can refer to any of the sections as required - this guidance should not be treated as a rigid document that must be read in one sitting. The term physical record is used here to include not only paper files, but any physical artefact that contains, or provides, information (for example books, laboratory samples, CDs or plans).
## 1.2 Scope
This guide covers twelve important areas that must be considered when an organisation is in the process of developing an understanding of their requirements from an offsite store. Each section will propose questions that cover:
identification of record categories development of disposal policy
security management access and retrieval of records transport of records modes of storage environmental conditions auditing and reporting exit strategy purchasing
It is not intended to cover the specification and provision of an archive facility for permanent preservation of physical records; this is a very different exercise.
Primarily intended for the initial (or a first time) contract, the principles of this guide are also valid for organisations that have established such facilities but are now preparing to tender for a new provision.
This guidance document does not prescribe how an organisation should tender and contract an offsite store nor does it aim to provide comprehensive advice on this topic; each organisation will use the procurement methodology favoured by their sector. Further considerations about purchasing and procurement are covered in section 12 Procurement.
In some circumstances this may be best provided via a consortium or shared service model. Organisations which are in a position to use such facilities may achieve an economy of scale which would not otherwise be achievable.
## 1.3 Audience
The principle audience is any public body from a large organisation, such as a local authority, to smaller organisations, such as a schools or general practices. Other organisations beyond the public sector may also find the guidance useful. Contracting and managing an offsite store may not be restricted to record management specialists. So this guide is intended for use by any personnel undertaking the development of a business case or specification for outsourced offsite storage offered by commercial third parties. We recommend that the organisation engages with either its own expertise or with external record/information management expertise to ensure that the final specification will provide an appropriate offsite management service and does not compromise good record management practice.
## 1.4 Assumptions
We have assumed that the offsite store will normally be owned and managed by a third party rather than being established by the organisation, and that the organisation will need to specify levels of service in a contract with a selected storage provider. However, note that all the considerations are applicable if an organisation is considering developing its own service or buying into an established contract to form a shared service.
This guide assumes that the applicable legal and regulatory requirements will be part of every standard contract such as public procurement rules and health and safety obligations. As such these areas will not be analysed in detail. Users are recommended to seek professional advice on these matters. This guide it should not be used as the sole basis for developing a formal contract. Each organisation must take account of its own operating environment and the current protocols for procurement and contract management. Essentially this guidance is a tool to aid assessment of potential contractual need for an offsite storage facility as part of its normal records management processes.

## 2.2 Table Structure
This table identifies each cell of a consideration table along with a brief explanation of the associated content.
## Consideration:
The text for each consideration is a brief statement identifying an issue that must be considered prior to entering an agreement with a contractor No: 1.0
The unique number for each consideration
The rationale provides a reasoning and context for each consideration. It also indicates the benefit of implementing the consideration.
Where appropriate the rationale will also indicate any associated risks of not including a consideration into a specification for an offsite store.
Q1.
The questions prompt the reader on issues they should address to meet the needs of a consideration. Every question has a unique number and corresponding numbered outcome.
When answering each question the organisation must carefully consider the effect of its response. In particular, where the answer is 'no', consider the impact this could have on any specification for offsite storage. Each organisation must make risk assessments ensuring that actions related to the consideration are properly informed and follow the organisation's protocol.
A1.
Corresponding numbered outcomes are included not as 'the answer' but as a prompt towards the preferred way a question should be addressed.
Each outcome aims to provide some reasoning and discussion points to help the reader determine their ability to address the consideration. Outcomes may indicate what is at stake if the question remains unanswered or answered negatively. The risks associated with each consideration will vary for each organisation. This section should improve understanding of the potential issues involved so that key decisions can be made to the benefit of the organisation.
## Management Information
Writing the specification for an offsite store can be a significant undertaking. To ensure that the required delivery services and storage capacity are provided, you must be as accurate as possible in determining the exact nature and extent of records to be moved offsite.
## 3 Identification And Categorisation Of Records
In this guide 'record category' refers to any logical sequence, set, or series of records. Records may be classified by function, organisation, case number, project name, physical format or retention periods. The purpose of identifying and creating record categories is to enable the organisation to form logical arrangements of records which have clear management and access rules associated with them.
If an offsite storage specification is to be fit for purpose it is essential that categories of records, and their characteristics, are identified and articulated clearly.

## 3.1 Identifying Record Categories
Understanding and identifying the records an organisation possesses is vital to the success of specifying the services required from an offsite store. The process of record categorisation may be lengthy but if it is not done there is very little chance that records can be managed effectively by the offsite contractor. This can lead to the organisation paying for a service that cannot provide any real business support in terms of managing its information.
Identify the categories of record that require offsite storage
A record category is any grouping of records defined by characteristics that assist with their identification and management. An organisation must establish its own criteria for categorising its records based on the most practical way they can be managed offsite. If existing, or proposed, record categories do not enable effective management via an offsite store then they will need to be reconsidered prior to sending records offsite. For example, the physical format of a record is not sufficient criteria to understand how records can be accessed and managed offsite. Other characteristics such as retention period, function and purpose are needed to ensure effective record categorisation. The assessment and development of record categories is a timely and specialist task. Where available the organisation must look to record management expertise to perform this task.
If expertise is not available within an organisation, it must seek external expertise to perform this function.
Q1.
Are all records associated with a known record category?
Q2.
What are the characteristics used to define record category (for example function and format)?
Q3.
Are owners and users of record categories known or identified?
Q4.
Are the current locations of all records in a record category known?
Q5.
Is the volume of records in each category known and verifiable (for example number of files and linear measurement scale)?
Q6.
Do any record categories require specific security provisions?
Q7.
Do any record categories include vulnerable or fragile records?
A1.
If the organisation cannot develop record categories it places itself at a significant risk as the records cannot be identified as a group or managed effectively. Categorised records
will deliver benefits including (but not limited to):
timely disposal of records in accordance with agreed retention periods avoidance of storage costs for records that should have been destroyed ability to track and locate business critical information at any time
A2. Awareness of a record category's profile is important as it may detail the physical nature
of a record. This will be of particular importance for heavy records or oversized records,
such as maps, which need specific storage requirements to protect them.
A3. Typically the owner of a record category is responsible for authorising access to the
records (in many cases a specific branch of an organisation may be the 'owner' for a particular category).
Establishing the appropriate authority figures and likely users of the records will inform certain decision making, access controls, as well as the anticipated level of service required for each record category. This will provide specifications for access that reflect the actual business need and will also assist in controlling overall costs. If this information is not identified it could cause:
unauthorised access to records inability to assess the status of records in a timely manner costly uncontrolled retrievals for review of records that lack management information
A4. Knowledge of the current location of records in each record category will identify the
current business need (such as multiple geographical location sites) and related transport overheads.
If the location of all records per record category is not known, it will be difficult to define the required level of use and transport for records.
A5. The volume of each record category and any known accrual rate can ensure an accurate
calculation of the overall storage requirement. Where this is not known storage figures can be miscalculated resulting in either excess cost or a lack of future storage capacity.
A6. An organisation may choose to sub-divide record categories by a security provision such
as protective markings or Government Security Classifications (Unclassified, Restricted
and so on).
If a record category calls for increased, or specific, security provisions the organisation will need to decide if the records can go offsite. Particularly where the records contain sensitive or personal data.
A7. Any fragile or vulnerable records must be provided with adequate protection when stored.
Sufficient provision must be made for fragile records stored offsite. This includes training for the contractor's staff on handling the records correctly. Further information on specifying storage for vulnerable records is available in section 8.2 Vulnerable records.
## 3.2 Needs Of The Record Categories
Not all categories of record have the same storage and access requirements. An organisation should consider the potential impact of both when developing a specification for an offsite store.
## No: 1.1 Consideration: Review Record Categories And Develop Criteria For How They May Be Organised Offsite Rationale:
Records in an offsite store can be organised in any number of ways. For example, an organisation (and by extension the contractor) could choose to organise all records within a record category by case number, retention period, a specific security requirements depending on the record category. The chosen means must be consistent and you must maintain them throughout the life of the record category within the offsite store to ensure the ongoing management of the records.
Q8. Must the records continue to be organised in order (for example, by case number)?
Q9. Are there categories of records that are required for frequent access?
Q10. Is there sufficient means to identify records subject to information requests during and
after a transition to offsite storage?
A8. Where physical format or environmental controls are not specific to a record category,
records can be more effectively stored by allowing a contractor to place records wherever there is space.
This type of randomised storage using barcode tracking is the most typical means of storage in commercial storage facilities as it provides greater storage efficiencies and reduced costs. It has the additional benefit that sensitive records are not held in a single space making it harder to identify them.
Conversely records stored in a rigid order will leave empty spaces on shelves that the organisation still has to pay for.
Randomised storage needs to be assessed carefully. An organisation must be satisfied that the contractor's systems are suitably robust to cope if the tracking system fails. Where records are not organised in a rigid manner it's possible that it will take more time to locate those records than records which have been stored in a logical sequence.
A9. A9. Placing the most active material as close to the centre of operations as possible with the
lesser-used material further away could provide significant efficiencies within the offsite store. If this information is available to the contractor they can allow for this and could maximise the production of requested records.
Identifying less frequently accessed record categories could lead to cost savings in storage, as the contractor can use denser packing on shelves (three boxes high and three deep as opposed to more active records at one or two high and two deep to allow easier access).
A10. All public bodies have a responsibility to respond to requests for information under the
Freedom of Information Act 2000, Environmental Information Regulations 2004, and Data Protection Act 1998. Such requests could occur even during a relocation to an offsite store and so it's vital that requested information is available for review and where applicable release.
You should consider it best practice that an organisation can always locate information, irrespective of its current location.
No: 1.2
Consideration:
Identify any record categories requiring specific storage standards.
Within an organisation there may be categories of records that call for a specific standard of storage. For example records needing storage with specific parameters for humidity, light and so on. In such cases the organisation must discuss these requirements with a contractor to ensure that the conditions can be provided.
In practice many organisations will not require specific storage facilities. However it is important that the environment within the offsite store is controlled to ensure that the temperature and humidity levels are kept to a moderate level.
Q11. Do any categories of record require specialised environmental storage conditions? Q12. Do any categories of record require specialised storage furniture?
Q13. Can the contractor provide the required storage for any special record categories?
A11. Specialised storage environments require careful planning. The organisation should
articulate specific needs to a contractor prior to agreeing a contract ensure the specified environment can be provided. If this is not specified there is a risk of records deteriorating beyond use or a variation to
the contract to include the required conditions resulting in exceptional and punitive costs.
A12. Organisations should always consider the format of records when determining the best
method of protecting them whilst stored. Where specialised storage furniture (bespoke
shelving for maps) is required the organisation should provide detailed specifications
prior to agreeing a contractor.
Failure to do this may result in fragile records being stored in an inappropriate manner leading to unacceptable incidence of damage. A13. Providing the most effective type of storage for specific formats of records is essential to
their long-term preservation. Most contractors try to meet specific storage requirements if they are informed prior to receiving the records.
Where a contractor cannot provide the required storage, the organisation must consider alternative options for the record categories that require specialised storage
environments.
## 3.3 Associated Indexes And Finding Aids
Finding aids for records provide an essential guide to what records are held, their owners, and other key information. Inaccurate or out of date finding aids are one of the principal causes of poor records. If the organisation does not review its finding aids prior to supplying them to a contractor there is a significant risk that records may become lost, or inappropriately managed.
Locate and assess all finding aids for every record category prior to sending records
offsite
An index is a useful tool in understanding a particular category of records. Organisations should retain a record, or index, for every category of record. It may be beneficial to supply a copy of any finding aids (indexes) for all records to the contractor prior to the relocation of records to an offsite store. As a minimum provide an index of any boxes including a list of their contents. This is crucial and should include, but is not limited to:
record identifier (barcode or barcode of box it is registered in) the record owner retention period allocated disposal schedule dates record/file was opened and closed links to other records location of records
The organisation must ensure this information can be imported into any systems being used to track the records held at the offsite store.
Q14. Is there a finding aid for all records due to be sent offsite? Q15. Does the finding aid accurately describe the records, and is it up to date? Q16. Can the existing finding aid be extended, integrated or exported to work with or within an
external contractor's systems?
A14. All categories of records must have a usable finding aid. Where absent, or insufficient,
you should develop finding aids as matter of priority. This may form an additional requirement in the specification - it may be more efficient to instruct the chosen storage
contractor to undertake the necessary work.
Inability to identify records (and content) can significantly impact on:
ongoing business response for information under the Freedom of Information Act inability to locate personal data within a record collection
difficulty in executing timely disposal scheduling maintenance of access controls to records
A15. If the finding aids do not accurately describe the records through meaningful metadata it
could lead to lost time and money in re-cataloguing record categories and re-establishing their management criteria.
This effort could be very costly to the organisation both in monetary and legal terms if records are not managed correctly or become 'lost' in the system
A16. Wherever possible indexes should be digital and importable into the system(s) used by
the contractor and organisation to track and manage records. This reduces the need for duplicate information and helps ensure that there is a single authoritative dataset for every record category
Finding aids are more valuable if they can be transferred/integrated into other systems. Being able to move finding aid or index data into an online system may increases the organisation's overall ability to track and manage records when held internally, offsite or shared with other organisations.
Reliance on physical finding aids (such as card indexes) can lead to significant loss of information; a fire could destroy the entire finding aid which would impair the organisation's ability to fulfil its function.
## 3.4 Vital Records
Vital records must be identified and managed with care. Without them an organisation may not be able to effectively recover key business operations after a disaster. The organisation must weigh up whether storage of vital records offsite is appropriate, and decide how to communicate the importance of these records to the contractor.
Identify categories of record to be stored offsite that are considered as vital records
Vital records are the essential records required for business continuity in the event of a catastrophic event. Without them the organisation cannot re-establish itself and restart its core functions. It is essential that vital records are identified and given the necessary protection when held offsite. There is little point in an offsite store safeguarding records as 'vital' if they no longer contain the required information. Periodically an organisation must review the currency of vital records to ensure that they are still valid and up to date.
Q17. Has the organisation identified its vital records? Q18. Will any vital records be stored in the offsite store?
Q19. Have vital records stored offsite been identified to the contractor?
A17. If an organisation has not identified vital records prior to being sent offsite they may not
be retrieved as quickly as needed to help the business restart following a disaster. This
could lead to significant loss of service by the organisation.
A18. Where vital records are stored in an offsite store they must be identified clearly and given
significant protection. A contractor can only do this where they are made aware of the
presence of vital records.
If an organisation is not willing to identify its vital records to an offsite storage provider (perhaps for security reasons) it needs to consider how these records are accessed and used so that their information is not accessible to unauthorised individuals.
A19. Most offsite stores are able to provide significant security for any category of record that
requires an increased level of protection. However if the contractor is not made aware of the presence of vital records it will not be able to manage them as the organisation requires.
## 4 Developing Disposal Policy
Disposal, or disposition, of records is an important part of their lifecycle. It is essential that no records are sent offsite without being assigned a current disposal schedule with procedures in place for managing and executing disposals when due. Failure to allocate and manage disposal schedules could significantly impact the management of an offsite store. If an organisation is not able to clear records due for disposal then it cannot make room for incoming records.
This will result in having to pay to store excess amounts of records. More significantly it could expose the organisation to risk of contravening information legislation (the Freedom of Information Act 2000). Unless specified otherwise records should be appraised by the organisation before they are sent offsite and later when the disposal schedule due date is reached. The organisation may decide that more routine records can be appraised by the contractor prior to destruction or transfer. In such cases there must be an agreement and system in place to prevent (or hold) the disposal schedule on any record or group of records if required. There is further guidance on developing disposal schedules at:
nationalarchives.gov.uk/information-management/projects-and-work/retention-disposal-schedules.htm
## Developing Disposal Policy
## 4.1 Developing Disposal Criteria
Clear and coherent disposal processes are built on disposal schedules that are realistic and can be easily applied to a record category (the part of the description of a record category will be how long the record must be retained).
## Consideration: No: 2.0
Develop and implement disposal schedules that clearly define the criteria for disposing of every category of record
An essential aspect of managing records is identifying when to dispose of them (or transfer them to another organisation, such as The National Archives). An organisation can significantly improve the efficiency of an offsite store if disposal schedules are allocated and used. All record categories must have a defined disposal schedule. This can significantly reduce the risk of records being sent offsite without a clearly defined (and actionable) set of disposal criteria. Where large numbers of records are stored with no disposal schedule the organisation could pay for storing records where there may be no justification for their retention.
Q20. Does the organisation have current disposal schedules for each record category? Q21. Are users correctly allocating and executing disposal schedules? Q22. Can the organisation identify records overdue for destruction? Q23. Has the organisation identified records overdue for transfer to an archival body (such
as The National Archives or designated Place of Deposit)?
Q24. Does the organisation have a mechanism to review the relevance of its disposal
schedules in the future?
A20. As well as being good records management practice, establishing retention periods
prior to sending any records off site is a useful logistical tool.
If up to date disposal schedules are not available the organisation will store records
with incorrect disposal management criteria. This may result in significant extra costs having to recall records and reappraise them in order to allocate an accurate disposal schedule.
A21. The organisation must ensure that the disposal schedules are allocated appropriately
and managed effectively.
In some circumstances this may mean revising schedules, which are out of date or not
suitable for the record category they are associated with. In other cases it may need a revision of the available advice and guidance to users on the correct appraisal, allocation and final disposal of records.
A22. An appraisal of records, prior to sending them offsite, can identify records that may
already be due for destruction or transfer. The organisation should seek to identify any and all records due, or overdue for disposal prior to sending them offsite to avoid excess costs in storing records no longer required by the organisation.
A23. Not all record categories will need to be destroyed; some may need to be kept because
of their historical value. Appraising records and allocating disposal schedules prior to sending them offsite may identify records that are due for transfer to a relevant archival body (such as The National Archives or an appointed Place of Deposit). Appraising records for their historical value is a specialist task and should normally be undertaken by a person with that specialist knowledge in conjunction with the archival institution which normally receives such records for historical preservation once their operational value has ceased.
In the case of bodies covered by the Public Records Act 1958, this will be The National Archives or appointed Place of Deposit. Where current arrangements are not known to exist, The National Archives can advise on appropriate institutions to which records may be transferred.
A24. The business and legal environment in which an organisation operates may be subject
to change, possibly affecting the length of time records should be retained (either decreased or increased). The organisation must have a means of being able to update and reapply disposal schedules in as efficient and accurate way as possible. Electronic systems to track and manage records offsite can provide the best response to such changes.
If an organisation cannot update its disposal schedules there is a substantial risk that managing records in the offsite store (and elsewhere) will become very difficult. This in turn could lead to significant costs at a later date in trying to revaluate a large number of physical records en masse.
## 4.2 Allocation And Execution Of Disposal Schedules
Ensuring end-users are aware of the correct allocation of disposal schedules will significantly improve the ability of the organisation in managing its information. If the rules and guidelines are not clear (or non-existent) the organisation will not be able to manage the disposal of records wherever they are stored. Where a contractor is expected to manage some, or all, of the disposals for records their staff will also need the same training and guidance as that of the organisation's users.
## Consideration: No: 2.1
Develop and maintain clear guidance on how to allocate and execute disposal schedules
To ensure correct management of records, it is vital that all users understand the correct process for identifying and allocating disposal schedules to records.
Users must have clear guidance and associated training for all aspects of using an offsite store, in particular the allocation and management of disposal schedules for records.
This guidance should be regularly reviewed to ensure its continued effectiveness for an organisation.
Q25. Does the organisation have current guidance on disposal schedule allocation and
management available for all users?
Q26. Is there sufficient training available for users on the management of the offsite store
(and associated systems)?
Q27. Will there be resource to ensure that the guidance and training are maintained and up
to date?
A25. The key to the correct use of disposal schedules is how well users understand the
purpose of allocation and execution. Guidance on the correct use and management of disposal schedules should be clearly communicated to users and made available in as
accessible way as possible.
Failure to create and provide guidance and training may lead to the disposal schedules being inappropriately used or not used at all.
A26. Written guidance alone is not enough for an organisation to be sure that users
understand how and why disposal schedules should be used. Training must cover the principles and rules for allocation of disposal. It should also explain the technical
systems used to apply and track the disposal for records in the offsite store.
A27. Guidance and training is only valuable if it reflects the current working environment. The
organisation should ensure that all documented guidance and training is kept up to date and relevant to the users. As the organisation changes and use of the offsite store evolves, supporting guidance and training should reflect any changes or new ways of working with the system.
## 4.3 Managing Disposal
Allocating disposal schedules is only the beginning of the disposal process. Managing the execution of disposal schedules is as important if the organisation is to prevent paying for storage of records it no longer needs.
## No: 2.2 Consideration: Decide Who Is Responsible For Actively Managing Disposal Of Records Rationale:
Prior to sending records offsite, the organisation must determine who is responsible for disposal. This may be the organisation, a third party contractor, or a mixture depending on the sensitivity of the record category. The organisation may decide that it is more efficient and cost effective for the contractor to carry out the disposal action on records. In the case of record destruction this may be the contractor or an identified secure sub-contractor (either chosen by or agreed with the organisation). Irrespective of who executes the disposal schedule the whole process must be supported by a full audit trail for the action to ensure that the destruction of any record can be identified at a later date.
Q28. Who will be responsible for monitoring when records are due for disposal?
Q29. Are there systems that provide a robust audit trail for the allocation, management and
final disposition for all record categories?
Q30. If destruction is carried out by the contractor (or agreed sub-contractor), can they
produce suitable evidence (including destruction certificates) that records are being
securely destroyed?
Q31. Will records be destroyed by an appropriately security cleared in a secure controlled
location?
Q32. Will records be destroyed in an appropriate manner that ensures no information can be
obtained from them after disposal?
A28. The organisation may choose to monitor record disposal, delegate it to the contractor, or
use a mixture of the two, depending on the record category. Irrespective of this decision there must be confidence that it's clear who is responsible and for what.
Where records due for disposal have to be retained for other purposes (such as a legal investigation) there must be a clear protocol for indicating the requirement for a disposal hold. Specifically the IT systems must have the functionality to indicate records that are not to be disposed of. Failure to implement this type of rule and supporting system risks the destruction of records required for legal purposes, leading to potential further legal action and costs.
A29. A system used to track the disposal of records should retain information on:
date a record was scheduled for disposal change of disposal schedule changes to the allocated disposal schedule date and reason for the disposal schedule being paused date of destruction or transfer
This gives the organisation confidence that even records destroyed in error can have their final status identified.
Failing to audit a record disposal could mean the organisation would be unable to prove whether the record has or has not been destroyed. The cost and possible legal implications mean that an audit trail is essential for all records in the offsite store.
A30. It may be more cost effective to pay for destruction of records at the offsite store (or by
an accredited sub-contractor) rather than the organisation recalling large numbers of records and assigning its own resource to the task. Where this service is engaged the
organisation must demand destruction certificates are provided for every set of records destroyed on their behalf. External destruction of records may not always be appropriate depending on the sensitivity of records, or even the proposed cost. The organisation must be convinced that the destruction process is secure, accurate, and fully documented (including the provision of certificates).
A31. An organisation must ensure that wherever records are destroyed it is done in a secure
and controlled area with limited access.
The organisation must be satisfied that whoever is destroying the records is capable of doing so in a suitably controlled and secure environment.
A32. Destroyed records can still potentially provide information. The method of destruction
will depend on the physical format of the record, but the organisation should ensure records are destroyed beyond all use. The organisation is responsible for protecting records, even when destroyed, so that the content cannot be used by unauthorised personnel. Failure to ensure records are destroyed beyond any use could result in a significant data security problem such as breaching the Data Protection Act 1998 or other legislation.
## Specifying The Service
Provision of a managed offsite store is not simply a remote storage location for semi-current records. Most offsite stores offer a number of extra services that allow an organisation to manage and interact with the records in a variety of ways. These range from providing a digitised copy of a specific record held in a box of records ('scan on demand' rendering retrieval of the whole box unnecessary) to adding an item to an existing box (where that is the normal contractual unit of management). The specification and understanding of what is likely to be needed from the whole offsite storage service must be clearly defined prior to agreeing a contract. This can help avoid over (or under) specifying the service requiring variations to the contract at significant cost to the organisation. An organisation may determine that it is economically viable to enter into a shared service with another organisation. This does not obviate the organisation from ensuring that the service meets all its needs.
## 5 Security Management
One of the key criteria for an offsite store is security of the records. All records held offsite should be protected at all times. Inadequately protected records could be subject to unauthorised access, theft or damage with a significant impact on the organisation. For example uncontrolled access to personal data could lead to legal action from individuals whose data has been put at risk.
## 5.1 Specifying The Required Security
An organisation should specify to the contractor the required level of security for each record category and the level of security required at the offsite store. For information on environmental protection measures see section 9 Environmental conditions.
Specify the desired physical security for the offsite store, ensuring adequate and well-maintained system of security to protect the building(s) and its contents
The organisation must seek evidence that the offsite store and its compound are adequately protected. A breach in security can have consequences which are not easily quantified but could involve significant costs and potential legal action against the organisation.
Every organisation (and the records they hold) will have varying security needs. There are, however, general precautions that apply to any offsite store. These include (but are not limited to):
CCTV surveillance
alarms, linked to security provider and/or police
all staff subject to security clearance assessment (level of security to be determined by the organisation - not the contractor)
all staff and visitors carry identification to indicate their right to be on site
security access controlled across the building preventing access to sensitive areas (specifically when an offsite store holds more than one organisation's records)
a secure perimeter, including robust fencing
site location (not a remote site or placed in an area of high crime)
surrender of any device capable of taking photos such as mobile phones or cameras prior to entry
If the offsite store is not adequately protected the organisation may be subject to a data security breach.
Q33. Has the organisation formed a brief on the level of security required at the offsite store? Q34. Does the site have functioning, monitored CCTV and alarm systems? Q35. Is security vetting performed for all staff working on the site?
Q36. Is the site, and its function, obvious to the general public?
A33. A contractor must provide evidence it can meet all the security measures specified by
the organisation. The organisation should visit the proposed site to confirm it is suitable prior to agreeing sending its records there. A34. Functioning and monitored CCTV provides excellent support in detecting and preventing
attempted theft or vandalism. The organisation needs to think about the locations of CCTV both outside and inside the building(s) to ensure adequate coverage. Additionally it will also need to consult with the contractor about frequency of recording to avoid amassing large numbers of CCTV tapes.
Additionally the offsite store should be equipped with a functioning and monitored alarm system (linked to either a security company and/or local police). As unauthorised access may occur when there are no, or very small numbers of staff on site, it is vital that an alarm can be raised at all times. If alarm systems are not available (or monitored and maintained) there may be no means of indicating a breach in security within the offsite store.
A35. An organisation will need to ensure all personnel accessing the site have passed
appropriate security vetting. The level and nature of screening must be determined prior to allowing records to be stored at the site; it may vary between the expected levels of access and user role.
It is the organisation's responsibility to ensure all staff working with the records held offsite are appropriately vetted, and that the contractor can provide relevant certificates for their staff on request.
Where an organisation does not vet these users (or not insist that the contractor provide evidence it has vetted them), it must address the risk of unauthorised access to their records.
A36. Offsite storage providers would not normally advertise locations holding very sensitive
information. Depending on the organisation's need there must be a decision on the visiblity of the offsite store's function in consultation with a contractor (for example, whether the contractor has a business sign on the outside of the building or not). If the offsite store's function is obvious the organisation's records could be at risk from opportunistic criminal activity, possibly resulting in damage or theft of records.
Determine and assign levels of access to all record categories held within the offsite store
It may not be appropriate for the contractor (or other users within an organisation) to have access to all categories of record (or individual records within a category). The electronic systems used to manage records in the offsite store must be able to indicate the specific access controls for record categories, and where appropriate individual records. The organisation must place access controls on record categories to prevent unauthorised access to records. If this is not in place the contractor will not be able to control access to records when under their control.
Q37. Does each record category have specified access controls? Q38. Are there individual records that require more specific access controls than that of their
record category?
Q39. Who will manage the access controls of the records?
A37. By detailing the access controls for record categories the organisation can indicate who
is allowed to retrieve particular records. The contractor can use this information to help manage access to records. If record categories do not have clear access controls then the contractor (and supporting systems) will not be able to prevent unauthorised access and data security breaches.
A38. You might need to protect some records beyond the access control of the record
category. Avoid individually allocated access controls as far as possible; wherever this does occur the same principles must be applied to ensure consistent use and
management of the records. As with A37, if access controls are not effectively managed it is harder for the contractor to ensure only authorised access to records is granted to records held offsite.
A39. Access controls might not remain constant throughout the life of a record. As records get
older their sensitivity may change and the need for wider access provided (or restricted). The organisation must ensure that it schedules reviews of allocated access controls for record categories, ensuring they are usable and accurate. If the incorrect access control is applied records might not be managed properly and this could lead to:
inappropriate access being granted wrongful prevention of access to requested information under Freedom of Information
Act 2000
## 5.2 Active Management Of Security To Electronic Systems
Once an organisation has been able to identify its security and access needs it must ensure all aspects are managed actively at all times. Failure to do this could result in a serious data security breach leading to loss or misuse of the organisation's information.
Determine and assign levels of security access to any electronic system that provides information on the content of the records
It may not be appropriate for the contractor, or other users within an organisation, to have access to information about a record's content. The organisation must implement controls preventing access to data (via the systems used to manage records) to unauthorised staff/contractors.
An organisation may need more formal levels of auditable security in the electronic systems. The standard, BS ISO/IEC 27002:2005 Information technology: Security techniques: Code of practice for information security management, provides an independently auditable level of security.
Central government departments will also have to consider CESG requirements as well as the Cabinet Office's Manual of protective security which prescribes methods of storage for records marked with Government Security Classifications ('Confidential' or 'Secret').
If this is not done then unauthorised personnel may be able to determine sensitive information about records held in the offsite store.
Q40. Can the record tracking system define and maintain user permissions to control access
to records, their content or informative metadata?
Q41. Who will manage the security of the electronic systems?
A40. Any system providing access to an organisation's information should have a means of
controlling that access. The organisation should insist that any record tracking system provides any set of access controls as appropriate to record categories, individual
records (where required) and the systems that provide metadata for them (the tracking systems). This may be done by integrating with other systems or using an individual function of the tracking systems. However you achieve this, it must be accurate and it
must reflect the current security controls within the organisation itself.
A41. The organisation must identify and agree who is responsible for managing the access
controls in a record tracking system. This includes the means of identifying and
reporting attempted breaches and a full audit trail of the attempt. Proactive management of security allows the organisation to be aware of persistent attempts to access (controlled) information. It will also ensure the systems are always protected and they reflect the current security need. Failure to manage access controls risks unauthorised access to information and content, with potential for theft and/or misuse.
## 6 Access And Retrieval Of Records
The success of investing in an offsite store relies on how well the organisation can effectively interact with that store once the operation is in place. In particular, you must think about the many factors that can impact the efficiency of access and retrieval with an offsite store. If the organisation does not properly determine the expected level of service from an offsite store, a contractor cannot provide the desired level of service to all areas of the organisation. The key issues include (but are not limited to):
unit of management for access and retrieval (box of records, or individual records) number of users requiring access to the stored materials expected delivery timescales, and frequency for every record category anticipated volume of retrieval requests
In order to ensure secure and effective business operations, there must be a thorough investigation of anticipated access and retrieval, understood by all areas of the organisation. This approach will highlight potential problems at an early stage and will help ensure access to material in the appropriate manner within the required timescale.
## Access And Retreival
suitable location?
## 6.1 Identifying Patterns Of Use
When deciding which records to store offsite it's vital to understand how often categories of records are likely to be requested. By identifying the business patterns, an organisation may also be able to decide whether or not there may be some record categories that should remain on site rather than go to an offsite store.
## Consideration:
No:
4.0
Define and allocate retrieval times for each record category, or groups of record categories
In order to provide an efficient means of accessing and retrieving records the organisation should provide a schedule for retrieval times to the contractor in consultation with the potential users of the service. The organisation will also have to consider how users request records from the offsite store and the specified unit of management (individual records or box of records).
Will users interact directly with the service or via an 'in-house' ordering process? Both options have benefits, direct access giving quicker retrieval requests, managed access by an access team providing greater control of the use and management of the offsite store.
If there is no input on retrieval times or the unit of management is inappropriate there is a risk that the retrieval service will not meet business need causing user dissatisfaction and leading to inappropriate use of the system.
Whatever the determined retrieval services they must not impede or prevent an organisation complying with statutory timescales for responses to requests under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 or Data Protection Act 1998.
Note that access to records may not be restricted to the organisation's staff and there must be protocols in place to allow authorised external users (the audit bodies) to request and access records held offsite.
Q42. Do users require specific retrieval services for certain categories of record?
Q43. Are their record categories that can be grouped in terms of need for retrieval and
access?
Q44. Have record categories that require priority retrieval been identified? Q45. Are there categories of record that could be produced by reproduction of a surrogate?
A42. The organisation should include user consultation when defining retrieval services for
record categories (in other words, the preferred unit of management and retrieval time). It should not rely solely on this information; the organisation may find users engage with the offsite store more productively where their requirements are accounted for.
You must make an objective assessment before specifying retrieval times to ensure best value for money and to avoid too many bespoke retrieval services.
A43. It would be impractical for an organisation to allocate individual retrieval times for each
record category. The organisation should identify those record categories that call for a similar retrieval service and allocate that service over as broad a range of records as is
practical. This provides a contractor with a manageable number of delivery schedules.
In some cases it may be possible to determine access and usage from previous trends either with another offsite store or an internal record storage service. If available this data could provide a very efficient means of establishing retrieval service need. If the record categories are not assigned specific retrieval times the contractor might process requests under standard retrieval times, which do not meet user need.
A44. Some record categories may demand fast (or emergency) retrieval times. Where
identified, the organisation must provide a retrieval time to the contractor detailing which record categories are eligible for a faster service (and who can use it).
Where used, the organisation may need to consider setting up an internal charging regime. This will control costs by discouraging users from using the service for routine file requests. The organisation has to be able to monitor the pattern and pace of retrieval to review and identify changes in business need. Section 10 Auditing and reporting discusses monitoring usage patterns in more detail.
A45. Another means of providing records to users quickly is through the production of
surrogates. This may be through scanning the record or if appropriate faxing a copy.
This is of particular value where the record is fragile or in high demand. Production of surrogates must be carefully controlled by business rules. When it is no longer required the surrogate must be destroyed (and not returned to the offsite store as a new record). If not carefully controlled there is a significant risk that the record will be held in duplicate offsite for no reason and at extra cost to the organisation.
## Consideration: No: 4.1
Identify and estimate current or anticipated level of demand for access for each category of record
It is possible that every category of record might have a different level of use. For example, a record used in a particular court case may only ever be called upon once during the trial period, then just stored for the legally required period. Conversely records used in a lengthy building project may be recalled and used more frequently, even after the project has been completed.
The organisation must establish the likely level of use for all record categories to determine anticipated level of retrievals. With this approach the organisation can assess the current operating model. It provides an opportunity to identify potential changes that could lead to improvements and operational efficiency savings.
Once the offsite store has been set up patterns of use should be assessed regularly to ensure that the terms of retrieval are accurate, and if not, the means for addressing this with the users and/or contractor. This places an additional requirement on the organisation to ensure that the contract with the offsite store has some flexibility with respect to increasing or decreasing planned levels of retrieval.
Q46. Has a pattern of use been identified for all record categories? Q47. Will the contractor be able to manage periods of high usage during pre-identified busy
periods or seasons to maintain the required retrieval times?
Q48. Are there likely to be regular uplifts (small or large) to the offsite store postimplementation?
A46. Understanding the common use of a record category helps form priorities for retrieval
time. If applied correctly this approach can establish a common set of retrieval times for all business units.
If the patterns of use are not properly assessed or the data is not available, the organisation must ensure it discusses the potential access need with users in detail, prior to assigning a retrieval time to category of record.
The organisation should also develop a plan of quarterly or annual assessments on the pattern of use for each category of record. This will ensure that the agreed service level still meets the business need and is not leading to excess costs for unwanted retrieval services or impeding business units by unnecessarily restricting access to records.
A47. The organisation must ensure that any potential contractor can cope with periodic large
transfer in or out of the offsite store. For example, during the processing of year end financial papers.
The organisation must be able to satisfy itself that the contractor can cope with known increased usage levels and can provide assurances of their ability to respond to anticipated fluctuations in demand. If the contractor is unable to support an identified pattern of use it is likely that any significant influx could overwhelm unprepared staff and increase the risk that records will not be properly tracked
A48. In addition to predicted increased use of the offsite store, the organisation may be
aware of other future activity that could present a management issue for the offsite store: for example if a business unit is to be closed and all its records need to be held prior to disposal.
It is extremely useful for the contractor to have this type of information in advance, even without an exact date of for the uplift, to cost (and allow for) the expected increased volume. If this information is not provided to a contractor it could result in a period of delay in function at the offsite store, as well as a significant excess charge from the contractor for uplift. The same principles should be applied if the organisation in conjunction with the contractor has to relocate to another site (either to a larger facility or smaller depending on need). If the records are to be relocated en masse the systems used to rack the move must be robust enough to cope.
## 6.2 Establishing The Offsite Store'S Location
The geographic location of an offsite store can affect the ability to retrieve physical records in a timely manner, as required by the business needs of an organisation. If an offsite store is unable to provide the required level of service, it will impact negatively on business operations including failure to provide information in mandated timeframes under legislation such as The Freedom of Information Act 2000.
## Consideration: No: 4.2
Compare required retrieval service levels against the geographic location of a proposed offsite store
When generating the specification for an offsite store the organisation must identify the necessary retrieval timeframe(s) for each record category to be stored. It is also important that the contractor is fully aware of the anticipated business needs prior to agreeing any contract.
Weigh up the benefits and risks of storing records in locations close to, and further from, the organisation's own site(s).
Ultimately an offsite store has to be located so that it will successfully fulfil the required retrieval times, including any fast retrieval times agreed.
The manner in which retrieval is conducted may vary depending upon each individual contract. (It should meet the agreed terms of the contract.)
Q49. Can the proposed location support the required retrieval times (two hours, half-day,
next day and so on)?
Q50. Will a secondary location be required for frequently requested record categories? Q51. Are there alternative routes to and from the offsite store that avoid significant delays in
traffic at peak times?
A49. In order to operate effectively, an organisation must be able to retrieve records from an
offsite store in a timely manner dependant on business need. For example, some record categories may require very short/emergency retrieval times
due to the urgent nature of the associated business processes; others may simply need a next day service.
Where subject to specific jurisdictions, the organisation should avoid storing records outside that area. For example:
records subject to the Public Record Act should not be stored outside the UK
records containing personal data should not be stored outside the European Union
A50. Where there is the option to store material in more than one location, an organisation
may find it preferable to keep regularly accessed, high-demand records closer to their office(s), while material that is accessed less frequently may be stored further away in
bulk (or palletised) storage. A well-managed storage network can provide a balanced cost approach, especially where a secondary store is rarely accessed. The use of multiple storage locations must be properly assessed, as there may be additional risks. Clear procedures and specifications must be in place to ensure records are always stored in the correct location (and prevent records being mixed up or even lost).
A51. It is important that the means of retrieving records is not hindered by external issues.
The storage contractor should be able to demonstrate how it might tackle known issues, such as rush-hour traffic or long-term road works that may significantly affect retrieval times. The organisation should identify any specific company or geographic issues it can address, such as delivering records to a remote or hard to access locations.
If records cannot be retrieved or accessed in a contracted timeframe with the organisation's users there is a significant risk that the offsite store will not be used.
## 6.3 Guidance On Access And Retrieval
Ensuring end-users are aware of best practice will 'make or break' the use of an offsite store.
Develop and maintain clear guidance on how to request records from the offsite store
Users need clear guidance and training on all aspects of the offsite store so that the records can be properly accessed and maintained. All users must understand the process for requesting records from the offsite store to ensure the operation remains effective. Guidance should be clear and without jargon so all users can understand it. Review the guidance regularly to ensure its continued effectiveness. Bodies subject to legislation such as the Freedom of Information Act 2000 should include specific guidance on recalling information held offsite.
Q52. Will the organisation produce guidance on use of the offsite store? Q53. Will sufficient training be available for staff regarding use of the offsite store (and
supporting systems)?
Q54. Is there resource to ensure that the guidance and training are maintained and up to
date?
A52. The success of an offsite store depends on how well users understand its purpose. You
can communicate this clearly through guidance and training designed to support users as they learn how the process should work. If guidance is not prepared users will be
unlikely to engage in the correct use of the offsite store. Correcting user errors can incur excess costs. In addition users may simply not use the offsite store causing significant record management issues and expense.
A53. As well as written advice, users need training in how to request and send away records.
The training should provide detailed explanations of systems used to track the records in and out of the offsite store (and any other location they may go to).
If users are not suitably trained in the use of the supporting systems there might be expensive failures in the system. It could also result in records becoming lost or misdirected through a lack of knowledge of the tracking systems used.
A54. As the business changes and evolves the use of the offsite store supporting guidance
and training should be updated to reflect new ways of working.
Guidance and training is only valuable if it reflects the current working environment. The organisation should ensure that all guidance and training is kept up to date and relevant to the users.
## 7 Transport Of Records
There is a wide range of electronic systems available to provide a secure record tracking. This guide does not prescribe a type of system nor who should maintain it. The key aspect for a tracking system is that it is robust, secure, accurate and maintained throughout (and beyond) the life of a contract with an offsite store. Whatever product is chosen it should as a minimum provide information on and help manage:
current location of the record disposal schedule owner access controls
Records are vulnerable to damage and loss when being transported. An organisation must be certain that whenever records are moved they are kept secure from loss or damage. The potential cost to an organisation for lost or irreparably damaged records is not always calculable purely as a monetary cost.
## Transport Of Records 7.1 Tracking The Records
Whenever a record moves it must be tracked. If knowledge of a record's location is not available the organisation may be subject to a significant loss of data and/or security breaches. Whilst this section deals with the tracking of records to and from the offsite store, the organisation must ensure that it is able to track the movement of retrieved records within its own business areas. You can use the same systems as the offsite store, but if not, ensure the internal system can interface with that of the offsite store so that records can always be found.
## Consideration: No: 5.0
Specify a rigorous means of tracking and managing records wherever they are transported to
The successful management of an offsite store depends on the ability to locate all records. The most robust means of tracking records is through the use of barcodes generated by the tracking system. These can be scanned by hand held devices, or scanners attached to designated PCs and they provide a simple means of registering file movements even by users with limited technical experience.
The organisation must be effective in tracking all movement of records to and from the offsite store, and elsewhere within its own sites. Whenever records are transported the tracking systems must monitor movement securely throughout the complete transportation.
Q55. Has the organisation articulated its requirements for a tracking system?
Q56. Can the tracking system maintain key record management information? Q57. Is the tracking system auditable? Q58. Is the tracking system robust? Q59. Is the tracking system secure?
Q60. Do records (or boxes containing records) have significant information with them to
identify them if lost?
A55. The organisation must be clear about its needs prior to assessing the supplier's
proposed system, or before purchasing a tracking system of its own.
If an organisation is unclear as to its specific needs it may purchase an unsuitable system resulting in potential mismanagement of records and a failing in the service.
A56. Any tracking system will need to be able to manage a significant level of transfers to
and from the offsite store. The organisation should seek evidence that a system has the capability to manage
the expected volume of management data.
A57. Systems used for tracking records should not be considered solely as transaction
recording devices. As well as knowing when/where a record has moved other information should also be retained along with the record's current location. This
includes, but is not limited to:
title category of record creator responsible business unit
date of creation access permissions security classification (where applicable) allocated disposal schedule (due date)
An organisation should undertake to identify all the information it requires (for example, workflow information) from a tracking system prior to purchasing a system.
A58. In order to provide clear evidence on the movement of records a system should retain
a full record of:
previous, current and intended location changes to metadata (such as disposal schedules, access controls) names of users requesting the file date requested, received, or moved
This information is not a substitute for an established 'hand over' policy in terms of establishing who is responsible for records when. However it can help the organisation establish the intended movements of records if they become lost.
A59. An organisation might need to control access to records from users and contractor
staff. In this instance the organisation must insist the system is able to provide adequate access controls.
If security is compromised the system should be able to provide a supporting audit trail to identify where unauthorised personnel accessed (requested) a record.
A60. In addition to the barcode that identifies a record, or box containing records, it is
sensible that other key information regarding the record(s) is attached to them. This should include, but is not limited to:
title creator responsible business unit date of creation security classification (where applicable)
disposal schedule
## Consideration: No: 5.1
Specify how the contractor must take part in the active management of any system for tracking and managing all records in their custody (irrespective of who owns the systems used)
The movement and transport of records is the primary function of the contractor. It is important to maintain the correct processes in terms of use and managing the record tracking systems. The organisation should ensure the contractor would honour this obligation as part of the signed contract documentation.
Failure by a contractor to ensure systems are well maintained could lead to a failure in delivery of service. For example, users are engaged in search and discovery projects where an inability to locate information via tracking system could have a significant impact on the ability to retrieve relevant information.
Q61. Who will own overall responsibility for the record tracking system?
Q62. Who will maintain the record tracking system?
Q63. Does the contract agreement detail the responsibilities of the contractor for managing
record tracking systems?
A61. Before buying or supplying any products (whether stand alone or integrated with
existing IT infrastructures) an organisation must identify who will have overall control and responsibility of a record tracking system.
It is not necessary for the organisation to have possession of the system but they must ensure they retain full controlling ownership over the product's development. Principally this is so that the organisation can assure the system remains viable and the data contained within it can be exported in a usable format at all times.
A62. As with ownership, responsibility for maintaining record tracking systems is vital to the
success of an offsite store. Ideally those monitoring a file tracking system should be people with significant experience in using and managing such systems.
A63. It is possible that a selected contractor will provide a suitable record tracking system.
In such cases the organisation must ensure that the product will be supported throughout the contract (and not be subject to unnecessary upgrading every two years or so).
Where the contractor is the owner of a system there must be an agreement on their part that it be fully maintained by them (or a potential authorised third party). In addition they must demonstrate that it is capable of managing a bulk export of information at the end of the contract, see section 11 Exit strategy.
An organisation may choose another system for tracking records. In which case they will need to ensure it provides the contractor with adequate training in the correct use of the system.
## 7.2 Custody And Care Of Records In Transit
An organisation must set boundaries with a contractor regarding levels of responsibility for the records whilst they are in transit. Care of records, does not confer ownership of the content of the records; this remains with the organisation at all times.
## Consideration: No: 5.2
Establish who is responsible for records and their movement throughout the transfer to offsite (and any potential returns)
An offsite store may see significant movements of records on a frequent basis. As well as robust logistic systems, it is imperative that an organisation establishes custodial liability for records. Loss or damage is possible with any transport of records. Both the organisation and contractor must have clearly stated responsibilities for records whilst in their custody with agreed policies for incident reporting.
Responsibility and custody in this context does not mean that when held offsite the organisation is not responsible for its information. The organisation will always have a responsibility to ensure that records are cared for and managed on their behalf in the correct manner at all times.
Q64. Has the organisation articulated the extent of a contractor's liability for records when
in their (the contractor's) custody?
Q65. Has the organisation defined a process for identifying 'transfer of custody' for records
between the contractor and themselves?
Q66. Will the contractor have a process for reporting lost or damaged records whilst in
their custody?
Q67. Can the contractor provide a suitable compensation process for records lost or
damaged by them?
A64. Never assume that a contractor understands when they are responsible for an
organisation's records.
Establish a contractor's responsibility for records as this will enable the organisation to develop a productive relationship in the use of the offsite store.
Failure to establish responsibility prior to agreeing a contract may result in no claim against a contractor when records are in their custody.
A65. There are many ways an organisation may choose to log records as 'received'
depending on the scale of use, budget, and size of the organisation. For example, the organisation may receive records in a central location (such as the post room)
and distribute the records internally. As custody of records takes place at that point they can ensure a more direct control of when exactly records were sent/received.
An organisation may require multiple delivery locations, in which case it must ensure that the systems and procedures are robust enough to ensure consistent and accurate tracking of records.
A66. Damage or loss of records must be reported so that action can be taken to resolve
the issue. Even if it is the contractor who has to repair records in their custody, the incident must still be recorded. In particular the detail of the damage or loss, how, and when it occurred. This may help an organisation to identify any patterns of poor record handling either internally or by the contractor. A robust tracking system should indicate where the record was last used/held. Manage it actively to highlight incidents of loss.
The organisation will always retain full responsibility for its information and any loss will be considered as their responsibility for failing to ensure the contractor was capable of performing the contracted service.
A67. Compensation is a problematic area. Under contract law there is no expectation that
punitive fines will be permitted. Traditionally the law will only permit liquidated damages and these are likely to be limited. Any claim for compensation will itself
have to be founded on an analysis of what would be the financial cost to the organisation if a record or group of records are lost or damaged. If that can be quantified it may be possible to seek evidence that the contractor possesses appropriate liability insurance which could be the source of recovered costs.
Additionally the loss of information however significant is likely to cause issues that cannot be repaired by money alone. Lost information can severely impact operational effectiveness and potentially damage the organisation's reputation.
We recommend that the organisation consults its procurement specialists and legal advisers before enshrining any requirement for compensation within its specification.
## Consideration: No: 5.3
Identify suitable containers for all record categories to protect them from damage during all parts of transit
Moving records in unsuitable containers, such as postal sacks, is almost certain to cause damage (to records) and the organisation must ensure that the containers for transporting records are adequate for the task.
This guide does not stipulate the exact type of container suitable for every record but it must, as a minimum, provide room for the records as well as protection from damage in transit.
Especially fragile or delicate records, for example glass plate negatives or laboratory specimen slides, may be too susceptible to damage to be moved on a frequent basis. The organisation needs to identify these records and consider how best they should be made available to users. In some circumstances it may be preferable to provide a digital surrogate of a fragile record rather than provide the original.
Q68. Has the organisation identified suitable containers for all records categories?
Q69. Will the organisation delegate responsibility for sourcing of containers to the
contractor?
Q70. Are there record categories that require special procedures or equipment for moving
and handling?
A68. An organisation may only have paper records in A4 format stored in standard archive
boxes transporting these correctly will be relatively straightforward.
Other records may vary significantly in size, shape, and weight and you must consider how to transport these rather than applying a single solution. Improperly protected records may become irreparably damaged which could be costly to the organisation.
A69. The contractor is likely to have significant experience in the transporting of records
and may be able to provide/source suitable containers for transporting physical records.
Note however that the organisation should always retain the right to insist on the means of transporting all its records.
A70. If an organisation has categories of record that are fragile or out-sized it must pay
close attention to how they are handled and transported. Provide adequate training on how to handle and transport such records including instruction on the correct use
of specialised transport equipment (for example, scissor trolleys, bespoke carry cases).
Any particular requirements must be detailed to the contractor to avoid vulnerable records becoming damaged and deteriorate beyond repair.
See section 6.1 Identifying patterns of use for detail on creation of surrogate records.
## 8 Modes Of Storage
Not all physical records can be stored in the same way and you must assess this during the process of specifying the offsite store. Pay careful attention to the dimensions and weight of the records with regard to the type of shelving required. For example large plans or maps should be stored flat while other paper records can be stored in a file on their side or in a box. Very specialised or fragile records, such as scientific specimens, will need very specific storage and they must be assessed prior to sending offsite, particularly if they require particular environmental conditions.
Before a contract is agreed, the organisation must be certain that the contractor can provide the correct mode(s) of storage. Failure to correctly store records could result in significant damage to records leading to them being unusable by the organisation.
## Modes Of Storage 8.1 Assessing Modes Of Storage
It's critical to understand how each record category will need to be stored if records are to be adequately protected whilst in an offsite store.
## Consideration: No: 6.0
Assess each record category to establish the most practical means of storage for them
Storing records offsite can become very expensive when the correct mode of storage is not considered.
The needs of categories of records may vary greatly so it is important that they are all stored in a suitable manner. For example where shelves may be suitable for boxes of paper records they may not be suitable for heavy physical objects such as geological samples.
Q71. Do all record categories require the same mode of storage? Q72. Can the proposed offsite store provide the required mode of storage for all record
categories?
Q73. Where used, are boxes (or containers) for records a suitable size and strong
enough to protect the contents from damage during transport and storage?
A71. An organisation may have physical records in one format or very similar formats
(for example A4 paper records). In such cases it will be relatively easy to specify a common mode of storage usually sturdy boxes that ensures the records are stored
safely and efficiently.
Where a wider variety of record formats exist the specific storage needs (including specialised storage furniture) must be identified and articulated to the contractor to reduce the risk of records becoming damaged or destroyed.
A72. If an organisation is not absolutely confident that the contractor can provide the
correct mode of storage it must find alternative solutions for records that cannot be housed in the offsite store - possibly a specialised storage contractor. A73. Storing records in boxes does not guarantee their safety:
If the box is too large, movement inside when being transported could cause
damage to contents
If the box is too small records can be bent, folded or otherwise fitted in an
inappropriate manner leading too damage
The organisation must ensure the correct size box/container is used to store records to reduce the risk of damage. It must assess how many boxes can be safely stacked on top of each other.
## Consideration:
No:
6.1
Assess each record category to establish the most cost effective method of
storage
The needs of each record category may vary greatly. It is important that they are all stored in a suitable manner. For example where surrogate copies of records are available to the users (such as microfilm or scanned images) it may be more cost effective to destroy the originals.
If they are still needed, it may be more cost effective to choose a mode of storage such as bulk (palletised) storage.
Q74. Can the organisation quantify the volume of records likely to be frequently
recalled?
Q75. Are there categories of record that could be stored in bulk (palletised) and left until
due for review or destruction?
Q76. Are surrogate copies of records available in a more accessible format (for
example, microfilm or scanned images)?
A74. The frequency of use for record categories should be used to define their access
and retrieval requirements. This information will help inform the most suitable type of storage for a record category.
Frequently requested records should be more accessible so that they can be
removed and replaced with minimal opportunity for damage.
If the mode of storage is not accessible there is a risk that although well protected whilst stored, the records are damaged when moved.
A75. Where a record category will not need to be accessed for a long period, it may be
stored in bulk on pallets.
Retrieval charges from pallets are likely to be higher than standard rates. This method may be attractive for records that are almost certainly not required until due for review or disposal owing to the reduced handling costs by not having to shelve material and index the records and/or boxes individually.
A76. Some records may have a surrogate digital copy (adequately protected and
preserved), potentially saving the organisation significant costs in retrieving records for minor administrative or reference purposes. This solution may also be
used for large or vulnerable records in order to reduce the risk of damage.
Where the creation of surrogates occurs, the organisation should consider using standards such as BIP 0008-1: 2004 Code of practice for legal admissibility and evidential weight of information stored electronically to ensure a consistent quality in surrogate production.
This does not mean that an organisation should embark on a wholesale scanning of records prior to sending them offsite. Scanning projects are a significant undertaking and should be subject to a cost benefit analysis first, including the cost of preserving digital surrogates of records.
## 8.2 Vulnerable Records
Whist an offsite store should provide acceptable storage conditions for most types of physical record; an organisation may have records which are more vulnerable to damage. The organisation should assess if they have particularly vulnerable records and how best they should be stored.
Assess each record category to establish any specific environmental conditions required for storing them
All records must be stored in an environment that protects them from damp, mould or pests damage. Some record categories, however, may demand more specific environmental conditions to protect them from deteriorating. The organisation should identify all vulnerable records prior as storing this type of records in a commercial offsite store can become very expensive where exact environmental conditions are required.
If the records are so vulnerable as to be considered not suitable to be stored in a commercial offsite store the organisation must seek specialist advice on the records from specialist conservators.
Q77. Has the organisation identified any record categories with a specific storage
requirement (for example an archival standard storage)?
Q78. Can the organisation quantify the volume of records likely to require specialised
storage?
Q79. Can the contractor provide evidence it can maintain the required environment for
vulnerable records?
A77. The profile of each category of record must include any specific storage
requirements. Section 3.1 Identifying record categories discusses how to identify
and articulate this need to a potential contractor. If the organisation does not articulate specific storage requirements to the contractor it could result in records being stored in an unsuitable environment (and their deterioration or destruction). A78. After establishing specific storage requirements the organisation will need to
quantify the volume of records affected. If the contractor cannot provide the conditions or space needed for vulnerable records, the organisation must reassess where the records can be stored. If the correct environment is not provided vulnerable records will degrade and may become unusable. A79. If a contractor is unable demonstrate it can provide the required storage
conditions (such as shelving or environment), the organisation may have to seek a specialised storage provider for the vulnerable records.
## 9 Environmental Conditions
Records of all formats are vulnerable to damage from either flood, fire, vermin or mould. Ensuring that the environment in and around the offsite store is adequately monitored and protected must form a part of the specification for an offsite store. In addition the organisation must satisfy itself that the location and site for the offsite store is acceptable in terms of potential risk from environmental damage, or insist on an alternative location for their record storage. You can manage this process by allowing the contractor access to the relevant sections of the organisation's risk register which relate to record management and control. Additionally before agreeing any contract the organisation must have sight of and assess the contractor's own disaster recovery and business continuity plans for the offsite store.
## Environmental Conditions 9.1 Surveying The External Environment Of The Store
When the organisation is assessing suitable contractors for an offsite store it must visit any proposed locations to see the area around the site is not unduly at risk from environmental damage.
## Consideration: No: 7.0
Conduct a full survey of the proposed location for the offsite store to ensure it is suitably protected from environmental damage
As the long-term location for an organisation's records it is important that the offsite store is adequately protected from all potential environmental hazards. Any assessment of an offsite store should involve actually visiting the proposed site. If the organisation does not visit the proposed location it cannot conduct a sufficient risk assessment for the implementation of an offsite store.
Q80. Is the offsite store located in a location vulnerable to environmental damage?
Q81. Who manages the environment around the site?
A80. When reviewing a site's location it is important to view it within its local
surroundings. Whilst the immediate site may be secure and well protected there may be other problems within the local vicinity such as:
the site is in a low lying area or flood plain the site is close to rivers or other bodies of water liable to flood this site is near overhead power lines or sub-stations this site is close to industrial sites (power stations, for example) Note that you might have to consider other risks such as proximity to airports or flight paths.
This guide cannot list every possible environmental concern an organisation may have and you should ensure that you have addressed all concerns before agreeing a location.
A81. As well as assessing the location the organisation will need to satisfy itself that the
immediate environs of the site are also managed against environmental damage. It would be normal to expect the contractor to manage this aspect of the offsite store, but it may be a third party.
Having suitable systems to protect the site is only useful if they are monitored and managed. If this is not done on a regular basis the offsite store could become exposed to any potential environmental hazard.
## 9.2 Surveying The Environment Of The Interior Of The Store
When the organisation is assessing suitable contractors for an offsite store it must visit any proposed locations to see the conditions for storing their records is like.
No: 7.1
Consideration:
Conduct a full survey of the proposed location for the offsite store to ensure it is suitably protected from environmental damage
Current or semi-current records held in an offsite store do not normally require archival standard storage. Physical records will survive far better in a controlled environment.
In broad terms the environment for current records should not allow large changes in temperature or excess humidity (as increased high temperatures and humidity are more likely to cause mould).
It is important however, that the specification is not so prescriptive as to become cost prohibitive.
See section 8.2 Vulnerable Records for assessing records that are vulnerable to damage.
Q82. Can the contractor demonstrate adequate protection measures for the proposed site?
Q83. Have contractor staff received training in how to deal with disaster recovery from
environmental damage such as a flood or fire?
A82. An organisation must be certain that the contractor is able to protect the records
against environmental or pest damage. Depending on a site's location there may be very specific concerns, but in general an offsite store must have in place:
fire suppression systems flood protection vermin control systems temperature and humidity controls
If a site is not adequately protected there is a risk that the records could be damaged and destroyed potentially causing significant reputational and financial cost to the business.
A83. In addition to having specific personnel to manage and monitor the site, all staff and
users of the offsite store should be trained in how to deal with an environmental emergency.
The organisation should not expect contractor staff to tackle a significant issue such as a large fire or flood. However training should have covered the basics of delivering early measures that could potentially reduce the amount of records damaged or lost,
such as the use of fire extinguishers in the event of a localised fire.
## 10 Auditing And Reporting
Procuring and implementing an offsite store should not be considered as a single project with a final deliverable. As an organisation develops, its use and the requirements for an offsite store are likely to change. Regularly analysing patterns of offsite store use will enable the organisation to identify areas of good and bad practice and potential need for change to meet new business needs. Subject to security requirements the organisation will also need designated personnel to visit the store, without providing prior notice, to confirm that the service is being provided to the standard specified in the contract.
Additionally the supporting systems should be used to produce specific reports to identify if the organisation's use of the offsite store has grown out of control, or beyond its original scope.
## Auditing And Reporting 10.1 Monitoring Use Of The Offsite Store
An organisation should work in partnership with a contractor to monitor the usage of the offsite store. This should include audit reports detailing how the offsite store is used in terms of retrieving and sending records offsite. Where an organisation has a secondary (or in-house) storage facility the use of this should be audited and reported in exactly the same way so as to ensure a completely accurate assessment of record storage usage.
No: 8.0
Consideration:
Provide an oversight team to monitor use of the offsite store and customer satisfaction
Ensuring that an offsite store remains cost effective and efficient is an important task when ensuring the long-term success of an offsite store. The organisation must monitor levels of use, and type of use, of the offsite store. If there is no strategy in place for monitoring how the offsite store is used it can become very poorly used and unreasonable demands might be placed on the contractor at a potentially increased cost to the organisation. Or in a worstcase scenario there might be a failure of the entire service.
Q84. Can the organisation provide adequate resource to monitor use of an offsite store? Q85. Does the record/information management team have sufficient authority (or senior
support) to execute decisions regarding poor or inappropriate use of an offsite store?
A84. Monitoring usage of an offsite store should not be seen as an ad hoc process but part
of the full time records management function. In order to accurately and correctly assess the use of an offsite store the organisation must make provision for resource
to perform routine audit and reporting duties on use of the offsite store.
If there is not a committed resource the organisation risks the use of the offsite store becoming poorly used. This inefficiency could lead to significant costs.
A85. Producing reports and auditing usage of the offsite store will only be of use if the
information can be acted upon. If there is a clear pattern of bad practice in one area of
the organisation the record management staff must be able to articulate the problem with support from senior levels. If records management staff are not given the authority to affect change when problems are identified the organisation could incur significant loss of operational efficiency and increased costs.
## 10.2 Reporting Incidents And Maintaining Communications
As well as an organisation monitoring its usage of the offsite store, it should be expected that the contractor contribute to the effective management of the offsite store. The contractor should have means to report issues and concerns back to the organisation where it has concerns or an incident has occurred.
Establish clear communication channels for incident reporting
The organisation needs to be able to monitor the pattern, pace and frequency of retrieval by both individual users and business units. This is partially to review and identify changes in business need (which can then lead to agreed variations in the contracted service), but also to permit forensic investigations where a security breach may have occurred. Therefore the contractor must be able to produce on demand appropriate statistics, in the form of reports, and do this within a specified time to the organisation. These should be based on known specified criteria relevant to the organisation including (but not limited) to the following elements individually and in any combination:
date range category type individual file reference business units using the records individual users requesting the files volumes of requests over specified periods retrieval service interval used
Auditing the offsite store must link in to the overall current records use as part of a higher level audit of the organisation's record management provision. If the organisation is unable to effectively monitor the use of the offsite store, there is a significant risk it may not be meeting the current business need at an unnecessary cost in resource and money.
Q86. Is there a clear method of communication between the offsite store and the records
manager(s) of the organisation?
A86. Successful reporting relies on the contractor knowing who to talk to on any subject
(not just in an emergency). As part of the process of planning for an offsite store the organisation must detail how communications for issues are to be reported to the organisation. For example it may not be appropriate, or useful, to have a telephone conversation detailing the number of emergency requests for records, in such case it would be more useful for a report to be produced and made available to the organisation. Conversely if there is a significant damage to records through flood or fire it will be
vital that the organisation can be made aware of this immediately.
## 11 Exit Strategy
Eventually the organisation may need to move its records from the offsite store. There are likely to be significant reasons for this and it is imperative that the organisation can ensure all the records, and associated information, can be removed from the contractor's systems in a usable format prior to entering into a contract with them. Exiting from an existing contract is likely to be expensive and this section is intended principally for the when the life of the agreement is reached and the organisation is looking to move to a new supplier. In practice the organisation may decide that the current contractor is providing the most cost efficient service. Irrespective of whether the organisation decides to move to a new contractor or retain the current one's service the exit strategy must still be agreed and in place prior to agreeing a new contract. It should also be noted that another possible exit scenario involves the records remaining in situ but a new contractor taking over management of the offsite store. In this event the considerations below are still valid.
## 11.1 Developing The Exit Strategy
Part of an organisation's implementation plan should include how the organisation will remove its records and related information when the contract is finished. An inadequate exit strategy could lead to significant costs and effort in removing records and related metadata.
Establish and agree costs for an uplift of records from the offsite store at the end of a contract
Before an organisation agrees to place records with a contractor it needs to be clear on what it expects when the contract has finished. Specifically it needs to agree the likely costs of a significant uplift of records from the offsite store to another location.
Offsite storage contracts are often made for very long periods of time, and in practice it is unlikely a contractor will agree a fixed sum for uplifting records.
The key point an organisation has to agree is that the contractor will assist with the relocation as much as is reasonable for them to do so. This must include correct tracking and movement of all records as appropriate depending on the strategy used to relocate the records.
The exit strategy must ensure no loss of data or records. It must be agreed and understood by both the organisation and the contractor to ensure this.
Q87. Is the contractor capable of managing a significant transfer of records?
A87. Relocating an offsite store's contents is a significant operation. Whilst it is likely to be
carried out in a staged process each stage may involve relocating thousands of
records. The organisation must seek evidence that the contractor is capable of such significant movements of records, and that every record will be accurately tracked as they are relocated.
In addition the contractor must be able to demonstrate that it can export any data held in its tracking systems. If this is not possible then the organisation risks losing not only the ability to confirm the transfer, but also lose relevant data such as the records owner and disposal schedule.
The ability to track large movements of records may not be limited to an exit strategy, and a contractor must demonstrate it can cope with any potential large transfers of records. If the contractor cannot then there is a risk that records will become lost or untraceable once relocated.
Specify the actions and data required for exporting all information held on any systems the contractor uses to track the records
Record tracking systems can be used to retain key information about records held in the offsite store, such as owner, dates, and disposal schedule. An organisation must ensure that all data can be exported in a usable format from the current systems.
The exit strategy must ensure be agreed and understood by both the organisation and the contractor to ensure there is a mitigated risk against data loss.
Q88. Can the system export data for the records in a usable open standard format (for
example, csv or xml)?
Q89. Is the contractor capable of managing a significant export of data? Q90. Does the contractor have effective means of tracking/auditing the export of data for
records from any electronic systems?
A88. Any database system must be able to export its data in a format that can be used by
another similar database system. Not all systems will use the same means of managing the data but it is crucial that the format of an export is in a common open
standard format such as csv or xml.
If the data is not exportable in a usable format the organisation risks losing significant information regarding the management of its records that it may not be possible to recreate.
A89. The organisation must seek evidence that the contractor (or owner of the systems) is
capable of exporting data from the record tracking systems. The ability to export large volumes of metadata may not be limited to an exit strategy, and a contractor will need to demonstrate it can cope with any potential large exports at anytime. If the contractor cannot do this there is a risk metadata will become lost. A90. Whenever a system exports metadata it must be able to audit the whole process to
identify as a minimum:
When it was exported? What was exported? Who exported it? What was the reason for the export?
It is vital to the security and integrity of the records being transferred that this information is available for the contractor to verify the export was valid and authorised, and that everything that should have been exported was.
## 12 Purchasing 12.1 Assessing The Contractor
This guide does not specify how an organisation may choose to select an offsite store outside of the provision that the contractor meet the specified levels of service detailed in an Invitation to Tender. However an organisation should ensure that the selected contractor is economically secure.
Where an organisation relocates a large number of records to an offsite site and then the contractor goes out of business, there could be a significant impact on both operational efficiency and cost of moving the records to another location.
## 12.2 Purchasing Frameworks
Owing to the variety of ways a service may be purchased this document does not prescribe how an organisation should tender and contract an offsite store. Every organisation must identify its statutory and regulatory purchasing frameworks to ensure that the services are purchased using the correct procedures. Failure to purchase under the specific guidelines could lead to a serious issue possibly involving compensation to other potential contractors disadvantaged by incorrect purchasing processes.
## 12.3 Shared Services
It is vital that a contract meets the organisation's business need but it does not have to be an individually purchased service. As identified in the National Audit Office report, Improving Corporate Functions Using Shared Services, purchasing an offsite storage contract service with other organisations could provide greater negotiating power over costs such as price of storage, retrieval charges, other services and support system costs. If an organisation does decide to enter into a shared service for an offsite store it must be confident that the procured contract meets their key business needs and represents best value for money for that organisation.
## 12.4 Understanding Contractors' Charging Models
As well as the obvious costs of storing and retrieving records there are other services that may be offered by an offsite storage provider. These can range from managing the appraisal and disposal of records to the provision of digital surrogates as an alternative to retrieving records. Not all of these services will be of use to an organisation, but it is likely some will. When evaluating bids for an offsite store, the organisation may need to look beyond merely the cheapest provision of storage and retrieval. According to the level of demand for additional services, which may fluctuate over time, the choice of a contractor that can provide the full required level of service may be different. It is recommended that in comparing costs, the
organisation seeks to understand the charging model of the potential provider(s) and tests them against different variables.
## 13 Further Reading 13.1 Legislation
All public bodies will be affected by information legislation. You must consider this when specifying certain aspects of an offsite storage service. Note that there may be other legislation pertinent to the organisation and it will be necessary to refer to those as well. Public Records Act 1958 (c. 51) Data Protection Act 1998 (c. 29) Freedom of Information Act 2000 (c. 36) Environmental Information Regulations 1992/3240
## 13.2 Relevant Standards And Other References
There are also a range of British and International standards which will provide useful information on certain aspects of record management and storage of records.

Date:
1 July 2015 Dear Peter, TRANSPORT FOR LONDON - NIGHT BUS CONSULTATION
London Councils is committed to fighting for resources for London and getting the best possible deal for London's 33 councils. Part think-tank, part lobbying organisation, and part service provider, London Councils formulates policies, organises campaigns and runs a range of services all designed to make life better for Londoners. London Councils welcomes the social and economic benefits that the introduction of the Night Tube will bring. We recognise that in some cases this will reduce demand on existing high frequency Night Bus services. We welcome the opportunity to comment on TfL's proposals for changes to Night Bus service patterns and frequencies as a result of the introduction of the Night Tube. We have provided a more detailed response to the consultation below. In summary, we want to see TfL:
-
Monitoring whether it is necessary to increase the frequency of services on the
proposed new routes. It should also work with boroughs (and the Police, if
necessary) to address any negative impacts of people congregating at, or near, Tube
stations.
-
Working with boroughs to address local concerns about reduced frequencies of Night
Buses in their areas, to consider less substantial reductions initially when the Night Tube begins and to keep levels of service under review once changes are made.
-
Making information available to boroughs, residents and businesses on the
difference in journey times between those completed using a combination of the Night Tube and Night Buses compared to those completed using existing Night
Buses on the most affected routes.
-
Confirming that buses operating less frequently than one bus every 10 minutes will
run to a published timetable with an even interval between buses.
-
Considering how many people may be put off or prevented from using the Night Tube by the additional cost and whether its fare structure could accommodate a reduced Night Tube fare for frequent night time travellers. TfL should be flexible enough to consider reintroducing Night Bus services after changes are made if
demand remains high.
-
Undertaking an Equalities Impact Assessment of the proposals and publicising the
results.
-
Working more collaboratively with boroughs on the issue of taxi ranks required as a
result of the introduction of the Night Tube and keeping the level of provision required under review.
Yours sincerely,
Cllr Julian Bell Chair of the London Councils Transport and Environment Committee
## Transport For London Night Bus Consultation - London Councils' Response New Services
We welcome TfL's proposal to introduce new Night Buses that will connect communities, primarily in outer London, to Night Tube Stations. However, given that these services will only run at frequencies of one bus every 30 minutes, the proposals may lead to significant numbers of passengers congregating at, or near, Tube stations. TfL should monitor this to consider whether it is necessary to increase the frequency of services on certain routes. TfL should also work with boroughs (and the Police, if necessary) to address any negative impacts of people congregating at, or near, Tube stations. Amongst other things, this may include increases in anti-social behaviour, noise and littering.
## Reduced Services
The impact of the proposals to reduce the frequency of 17 of the 117 existing Night Bus services will vary between (and in some cases within) boroughs. We note that some areas will see the frequency of services cut in their areas, despite not benefitting from the Night Tube. Examples of this include centres such Hackney, Elephant & Castle and Angel. Some boroughs also note that the roads that Night Buses travel along in their areas are not served by late night Tube services. This may be the case even if the Night Bus does serve one or more Tube stations along the bus route. We urge TfL to work with boroughs to address local concerns about reduced frequencies of Night Buses in their areas, to consider less substantial reductions initially when the Night Tube begins and to keep levels of service under review once changes are made. Boroughs so far have highlighted concerns with the following routes:
-
94, N8, N9, N29, N38, N73, N91, N97.
It is likely that other boroughs will respond to the consultation to express concern about other routes before the deadline for comments. In south east London, the frequency of the N1 will be reduced from every 20 minutes to every 30 minutes. The areas of south east London served by the N1 do not benefit directly from the Night Tube but will be served by the new 'feeder' Night Buses that will link areas to Night Tube stations, at a frequency of one bus every half an hour.
TfL's states that its analysis 'indicates that customers who take the tube instead of the bus for all or part of their journey will save 20 minutes on average, and in some cases up to an hour'. However, this analysis has not been made available as part of the consultation and so the impacts on specific areas cannot be considered fully. In south east London, for example, it is not possible to determine whether a combination of the Night Tube (operating at a frequency of every 10 minutes) and the new Night Buses (operating at a frequency of every 30 minutes) would improve journey times for passengers, when compared to existing Night Bus services. TfL should make this information available to enable boroughs, residents and businesses to enable them to make an informed response to the proposals.
We would welcome confirmation that buses operating less frequently than one bus every 10
minutes will run to a published timetable with an even interval between buses.
## Equality Implications
London Council is concerned about the impact that significant reductions in the frequencies of some Night Bus services will have on low paid Londoners and people with reduced mobility. The higher cost of the Night Tube compared to Night Buses will require workers that use Night Buses to commute to/from work to choose between a faster but more expensive Tube service and a cheaper Night Bus service operating at a reduced frequency at weekends. For some Night Buses, the reduction in frequency is substantial, with, for example, the N20
reduced from one bus every 10 minutes to one bus every 30 minutes at weekends. TfL should consider how many people may be put off / prevented from using the Night Tube by the additional cost and whether its fare structure could accommodate a reduced Night Tube fare for frequent night time travellers. TfL should also be flexible enough to consider reintroducing Night Bus services after changes are made if demand remains high.
We are also concerned that many Tube stations do not provide step-free access from street to train. For people that rely on this, the Night Tube is not a reasonable alternative to a Night Bus, which offers better accessibility. We are not aware of an Equalities Impact Assessment of the proposals having been carried out and released with the consultation. TfL should undertake one and publicise the results.
## Taxis
We understand that TfL has recently written to a number of boroughs regarding the impact of the Night Tube on taxi ranks and has identified preferred locations for additional ranks. Boroughs consider that this process should have been more collaborative and should have begun sooner. This could have avoided locations being identified that boroughs do not consider suitable. Boroughs also note that the need for additional taxi ranks is subject to passenger demand, which has a high level of uncertainty. | en |

## 1. Introduction
This guide gives you an overview of Network Rail's investment process and associated contractual framework. It covers a suite of enhancement template agreements for engaging with current and prospective promoters and stakeholders sponsoring infrastructure enhancement projects. It is intended to be consistent with the Office of Rail and Road (ORR)'s Policy Framework for Investments. The guide's appendices cover:
enhancing the network
the Governance for Railway Investment Projects (GRIP)
the investment process
criteria used for assessing promoters' reasonable requirements
services provided by Network Rail
approval in principle
risk management
regulated change processes
Network Rail's template agreement structure
## 2. Network Rail'S Role
Network Rail is a key point of contact for anyone who wants to invest in the rail network - also known as 'enhancing the network'. Our aim is to facilitate appropriate investment in the network regardless of the role we are asked to play in delivering that investment. The earlier you involve us with a project's development, the more we can help you to define its scope and deliver your proposal. This will help us both to align our respective objectives or commitments, to realise opportunities from integrating these commitments and to manage interface risks effectively. Details of how we engage with promoters can be found at Network Rail open for business. See also Appendix A. Our role is to help developers, funders, stakeholders and other 'promoters' who wish to invest in the rail network to develop and then deliver their proposals in co-ordination with all relevant stakeholders. We will coordinate and involve the train operators, the Department for Transport (DfT), Transport Scotland, the Welsh Government and other stakeholders as appropriate where a proposal:
could have a separate impact on train service franchises; or
could have a material linkage with wider public policy objectives (such as airport access or freight access to major ports).
## Network Rail Governance Arrangements
Before committing to a contract for services, products and works with a promoter or committing internal resources to a project, we need to approve internally every investment project. This provides for adequate monitoring of the project's impact on the network. It also lets us control and prioritise our investment plans where we're funding or delivering the project. We authorise investment funding in discrete stages during a project's various phases. This:
brings business case certainty;
reduces the risks in committing investment expenditure on projects; and
verifies that each project phase is adequately defined.
The Governance for Railway Investment Projects (GRIP) explains the stages of the project lifecycle where funding approval is required. Further details can be found in Appendix B.
## Network Rail'S Stakeholders
On generic industry-wide issues, passenger and freight operators are often represented by the Rail Delivery Group (RDG). The main funder of network outputs is the Department for Transport (DfT). Following the enactment of the Railways Act 2005, Scottish Ministers are in a similar position to the DfT, in Scotland through Transport Scotland (TS). Other funders include the Welsh Government, Transport for London (TfL), Combined Authorities (formerly Passenger Transport Executives), Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs), local and county councils, the European Union (EU), rolling stock manufacturers and developers. We consider our stakeholders to be all of the above, including any other party which relies on us to invest in the rail network infrastructure and anyone who may be affected by the proposed project.
## 3. The Investment Process
The investment process has a number of possible stages. These depend on the type of project, the level of our involvement and the promoter who approaches us. Once a promoter has approached us, we'll work with them to determine the appropriate scope and contractual framework for the project's lifecycle. When we deliver services to the promoter, and also when developing and implementing projects ourselves we follow the Governance for Railway Investment Projects (GRIP) process. Where the promoter undertakes the development and the implementation of the works, we will facilitate its project by providing non-contestable services, which we outline below. We describe below the various investment process stages which we will follow from inception through to completion. Appendix C provides flowcharts to illustrate this process. We also explain the contracting arrangements which apply for different kinds of project.
## Grip Stage 1: Output Definition Information Requirements
When considering an investment in the rail infrastructure, you should consider:
the objective, scope, timing, and specification of the enhancement;
the funding for the project and any project risks;
the procurement methodology: what you think we should undertake in development and
implementation works or provision of non-contestable services (defined below);
the likely interface with existing railway operations and other relevant projects and route strategies;
and
other stakeholder involvement.
## Receipt Of Request
When we receive an investment request, we will appoint an appropriate representative. The nature of the investment will determine who within Network Rail will take responsibility for the investment process, and the nature of the proposed investment and its complexity will largely determine how we allocate it. Our representative will:
respond to your initial request on a timely basis;
act as your point of contact with us and keep you informed regarding the progress of your project;
meet you to undertake an initial assessment of the project; and
check you have given us the necessary information for our representative to seek endorsement of your request from the 'Route Strategy Planning Group (RSPG)', which is described in more detail in the following section.
## Review Of Project Proposals By The Rspg
Each route has a RSPG, which is an internal (Network Rail) multifunctional review group which:
provides clarity on the route's required outputs via an appropriate specification;
verifies that the route investment programme will deliver these outputs efficiently and cost-effectively; and
verifies that investment proposals are sufficiently well managed and supported.
All enhancement schemes, regardless of funding, are discussed at the relevant RSPG meeting. We will also seek feedback on the proposal from stakeholders and industry partners at industry meetings like the Route Investment Review Group. As part of the review process, the RSPG will assess the scheme against the decision criteria we use to assess promoters' requirements. You can read a summary of our decision criteria in Appendix D.
## Failure To Meet Decision Criteria
If our assessment of your scheme is that it does not meet the decision criteria for promoters' requirements, the RSPG may reject the proposal.
## Rejection Of Scheme By Rspg
If the RSPG reject the proposal, our representative will work with you to identify possible options for your proposed scheme, which may include revising and resubmitting your proposal.
## Appealing Against A Decision
If you want to appeal against a decision made by our RSPG, you should appeal in writing to our representative. This appeal should clearly set out why you believe that the decision was incorrect, and give further information as necessary. The RSPG will review your appeal, and may invite you to a meeting to discuss your proposed scheme. The RSPG will then reassess the scheme against the decision criteria for assessing promoters' requirements.
## Grip Stage 2: Project Feasibility
Following successful review and prioritisation of the investment proposal, Network Rail will make contact with the promoter to move the project forward.
Network Rail will decide at the RSPG meeting which part of the organisation will sponsor the project. Where a scheme changes the capability of the railway, i.e. changes to the timetable or operation of the network, or integrates with existing major programmes of work then Network Rail's System Operator team will sponsor the scheme. Other schemes will be sponsored by Route Enhancement teams (such as investments in stations).
At this stage, we will also define our involvement in the scheme. We have to be included in elements of the project that impact on the railway, which we call 'non-contestable services'. This reflects the requirements on us to preserve the railway's integrity and protect our assets. However, you may choose to engage third parties for other elements of the project. This is explained further below.
## Non-Contestable Services
If you intend to design and implement the project yourself, we will provide asset protection services. Only Network Rail can provide these 'non-contestable' services.
They include protecting the integrity and safety of the rail network and its operations, the provision of asset and operational information, safety management (including approvals), consents and protected access to the railway. If the works are straightforward, then a Basic Asset Protection Agreement (BAPA) may be appropriate at this stage. If the project is more complex, then an Asset Protection Agreement (APA) is likely to be more suitable. Further information can be found on our website at: Third Party Template Agreements
## Contestable Services
As well as non-contestable services we may also be able to undertake a full range of 'contestable' project development and implementation services. The specific type of service we provide will depend on the stage in the project lifecycle and we will discuss and agree the services and any charges with you before taking any action or incurring any charges. In the early stages of a project, we recognise that you might need help to develop and refine your business case.
As part of the business case development, we need to establish:
a sustainable funding route for the project, including risk management;
what, if any, adverse impact the scheme will have on network capacity, and options to mitigate this; and
what are the interface risks with our Operations, Maintenance and Renewal (OM&R) activities, including:
-
all safety risks;
-
the needs of other users of the network;
-
avoiding conflict with the existing rights of other users; and
-
the need to verify that we are not placed at undue risk of breaching our stewardship obligations as set out in our own network licence.
If you ask us to develop the scheme and we agree that we should do so, we will use either a Basic Services Agreement (BSA) or Development Services Agreement (DSA) to capture the services and fees required to progress the project. Both of these agreements are described in section 4 below and can be found on our website at Third Party Template Agreements Appendix E has an indicative list of services (both contestable and non-contestable) that we can provide.
## Business Efficiency Objectives
In some cases, it might be more efficient to align your proposal for investing in the rail network with our own renewal or other activity - for example, if you were to propose a minor enhancement where we are undertaking a major renewal. In these cases, we might agree to undertake the works as part of our own renewal activity.
Where appropriate, we will give you more information on our renewal plans to help you find such opportunities.
When the proposed enhancement may pose a significant risk to the efficient operation, maintenance or renewal of the network but is nonetheless deemed to be a priority, then we will offer to develop the project in line with our template agreements.
## Grip Stage 3: Option Selection
At the end of this phase, the following workstreams should have been completed by either us or your development services provider:
the various options available to complete the project will have been identified;
each of these available options will have been appraised; and
a single option and outline design should be recommended.
Based on this recommendation, you should receive indicative time and cost information from either us or your development services provider. You can use this to inform your business case.
The business case should confirm whether or not the project is affordable, including consideration of whole-life cost issues, whether it can be delivered in a reasonable timescale, whether it will provide value for money, and on this basis whether to proceed to detailed design and implementation.
## Grip Stages 4 To 8: Option Development, Design, Construction, Handback And Close Out
If the procurement route you choose is through Network Rail, we will enter into an Implementation Agreement (IA) with you. We will seek a sufficient level of design certainty and equivalent terms from our supply chain after completing design at GRIP Stage 4 or 5 as appropriate. Where we implement the project, we'll agree the appropriate contracting strategy with you. This will usually be on an emerging cost methodology based on cost estimates and tenders with appropriate contingencies and allocation of risk between the parties. There are four possible implementation agreements, depending on the value and complexity of the scheme.
a Basic Implementation Agreement (Emerging Cost or Fixed Price); and
an Implementation Agreement (Emerging Cost or Fixed Price).
These agreements are described in section 4 below and can be found on our website at Third Party Template Agreements During the implementation stage, we might provide the following services (and any other services that are required):
project management;
detailed design (if not already completed);
constructing the new assets;
approval, acceptance, commissioning; and
project close out.
Before project close out and after implementation, you should review the business benefits of the project with us, reviewing and recording any lessons which could benefit future schemes. This is in line with project management best practice. In cases where you are undertaking the implementation activity yourself, we will facilitate the project's interface with our business according to an Asset Protection Agreement or Basic Asset Protection Agreement, as appropriate. (For further details see our website at http://www.networkrail.co.uk/aspx/1606.aspx )
## 4. Contracting Templates Introduction
We have a set of template agreements with model terms and conditions for use by promoters. These were first introduced in 2005 after extensive consultation with our stakeholders and approval by the ORR. They have been updated over the years to improve them, deal with stakeholder issues and keep them up-to-date. By establishing clear frameworks setting out for the roles and responsibilities of Network Rail and the promoter, these agreements seek to:
encourage investment in rail enhancements;
identify practical solutions which reduce barriers to investing in the railway;
reduce the need for time-consuming negotiations; and
reduce the need to develop specific contracting arrangements for each and every scheme.
The principles of the template enhancement agreements are consistent with the ORR Investment Framework and our regulatory obligations. In particular, they are consistent with the obligation to "secure the improvement, enhancement and development of the network', and to meet stakeholders' reasonable requirements.
## Template Agreements
These agreements are designed for projects generally with a total cost of circa £50 million or less. To make things clearer, you can read our explanatory notes on the different agreement types at: Third Party Template Agreements The agreements are summarised below:
## Basic Services Agreement (Bsa)
A simple agreement, aimed at quickly putting in place a contractual relationship after you've approached us initially. It covers pre-feasibility works to scope the scheme and develop the business case. The tasks it covers can include:
providing you with asset information;
attending meetings and workshops; and
where appropriate for minor schemes, reviewing the 'Approval in Principle' design you've procured (see Appendix F for more information on Approval in Principle).
The agreement also permits you or your representative to undertake visual inspection of the network, within certain constraints.
It will generally be used during GRIP stages 1 and 2, but could also be used up to the end of GRIP Stage 3 for simple schemes.
## Development Services Agreement (Dsa)
This agreement covers development and design work we undertake on your behalf. This includes:
project and development management;
contract management of consultants;
management of the necessary consents and approvals; and
governance and control.
The DSA covers GRIP Stages 2 to 4 inclusive, with the potential to reach GRIP Stage 5 if agreed.
## Basic Implementation Agreement (Emerging Cost) (Bia Ec)
This is a simple agreement for straightforward low-risk works up to a typical value of £2m, which are on or near to the controlled railway infrastructure. You pay for the works on an emerging cost basis, and the agreement covers GRIP Stages 5 to 8 inclusive.
## Basic Implementation Agreement (Fixed Price) (Bia Fp)
This is a simple agreement for straightforward low-risk works up to a typical value of £2m. It envisages that the works contractor will have given us a fixed price based on the specification that you have agreed with us. You pay for the works on a fixed price basis, and the agreement covers GRIP Stages 5 to 8 inclusive.
## Implementation Agreement (Emerging Cost) (Ia Ec)
With Network Rail acting as a construction manager, this is an emerging cost agreement which establishes a clear commercial framework for enhancement work on or near to the controlled railway infrastructure. It allows for detailed design and implementation of your scheme, with the contracting strategy agreed between you and us.
## Implementation Agreement (Fixed Price) (Ia Fp)
This is generally intended to cover implementation of schemes up to £10m from the end of GRIP Stage 5. It envisages that the works contractor will have given us a tendered price based on similar fixed price terms against a specification which you have agreed with us.
## Basic Asset Protection Agreement (Bapa)
This is a simple agreement for straightforward, low-risk promoter-led works on the controlled railway infrastructure, where we facilitate your project through asset protection. The works may take place on secondary routes and will present low risks to our network and require few or no possessions. You will pay the costs of our services, which generally include:
engineering safety management approvals;
provision of asset information;
booking of possessions and necessary consents; and
attending meetings as required.
Whilst the agreement can cover GRIP Stages 2 to 8 inclusive, you will need to establish the implications of any single option on the agreement form before implementation. It can also be used at GRIP Stage 1 for surveys.
## Asset Protection Agreement (Apa)
This is an agreement for promoter-led works on the controlled railway infrastructure, where we facilitate your enhancement scheme interface with our Operations, Maintenance and Renewals activities. You pay the costs of our services, including:
engineering safety management approvals;
provision of asset information;
booking of possessions and necessary consents; and
attending meetings as required.
Whilst the agreement can cover GRIP Stages 2 to 8 inclusive, you need to establish the implications of any single option on the agreement form before implementation. Although this agreement can be used from the end of GRIP Stage 2, it is generally used at GRIP Stages 3 to 4 onwards.
## Risk Management
Promoters' projects place additional responsibilities upon Network Rail to deliver development and design services, asset protection services and works for which it is not funded by the DfT. The template agreements frame the balance of risk and responsibility as between Network Rail and the promoter and introduce two risk funds to deal with Network Rail's contractual risks (the Network Rail Fee) and those risks systemic to the rail industry (the Industry Risk Fee). The nature of these risks and percentage fees charged to promoters as part of the template agreements is detailed in Appendix G.
## 5. Public Liability Insurance
The ORR requires the rail industry to have a minimum of £155m of public liability cover, and this level of cover may apply to promoters carrying out works on or close to our railway infrastructure. Promoters should consult with their insurance advisors in order to arrange the required cover, but promoters may be interested to know that a top-up insurance facility that can provide cover over a promoter's or contractors' £25m or £50m public liability cover, up to the £155m requirement, is available through JLT Specialty Ltd and AON UK Ltd. The following personnel can provide details if required:

## Appendix A: Enhancing The Network
We maintain details of all the proposed investment schemes with an enhancement element, and their current status, within the route plans we publish as an annex to our annual business plan. We publish these details at least once a year.
There are eight routes and the details for each one can be found by following the links below:
Anglia
London North Eastern and Midlands London North Western
Scotland South East Wales Wessex Western
In addition Rail Freight is treated on a national basis.
We encourage input into our network planning process through channels which include:
Route Utilisation Strategies and other route stakeholder groups;
routine liaison with train operators; and
direct contact with the relevant route enhancement manager or principal network planner.
We use Route Investment Review Groups as the formal basis for providing further dialogue with train operators about our investment plans. We also engage separately with other stakeholders to discuss our plans and we have arrangements with freight operators for a national dialogue.
## Appendix B: The Grip Process Network Rail'S Management And Control Process For Enhancements
In comparison with other industries, working on or alongside an operating rail network adds significant complexity. Work may need to be carried out at certain restricted times, like evenings or weekends, which can mean that even minor interruptions or delays in the work programme can have a significant impact on timescale and costs. There is also a much greater risk that investment projects will lead to operational disruption. As well as the standard construction risks that affect all sectors of the economy, rail industry enhancement projects are likely to face significant additional risks that can lead to cost overruns in completing the works. To minimise and mitigate the risks associated with delivering projects on an operational railway, we have developed an approach to managing investment schemes which we set out in GRIP. We base the approach on our own best practice, as well as that of other industries that undertake major infrastructure projects, and major professional bodies including the Association of Project Management. It covers the investment lifecycle from inception through to the post-implementation realisation of benefits:
## Key Stages Of The Investment Lifecycle (Grip Stages)
The lifecycle shows how a project is broken down into eight stages. The overall approach is driven by product rather than process, and each stage needs to deliver an agreed set of products to specific quality criteria. At each stage of the investment lifecycle, GRIP defines all of the 'products' which could be produced within that stage. Within each GRIP document, the products are summarised in a matrix which lists what could be produced, and at which stage in the investment lifecycle. We hold formal stage gate reviews throughout the investment lifecycle. These reviews examine a project at critical stages in its lifecycle to give assurance that it can continue successfully. The review looks at the completeness of products and assesses the risk associated with any variance or derogation.
All projects are subject to at least four mandatory stage gate reviews during the project lifecycle. At least two reviews take place during the project's development phase, leading to a single option and agreed scope, prior to the award of the detailed design and construction contract. Two other reviews look at scheme handback and project close out. Additional stage gate reviews are undertaken where we carry financial or output risk. Where a third party carries any of the financial and/or output risk associated with an investment project, then a stage gate review may be held at the end of any stage at the request of the third party to support their investment authorisation processes. In this case, the stage gate review's format and approach stays the same, but may involve the third party's representatives.
GRIP consists of several Network Rail standards and manuals, including a description of the products that must be produced on an investment project for us to discharge our role as infrastructure controller, operator and maintainer, as well as our asset protection role if a third party delivers the asset change in full or in part.

## Appendix D: Criteria For Assessing Promoters' Requirements
The key constraints on our stewardship of the network are:
funding;
network access;
availability of materials, machinery and manpower;
asset knowledge; and
our obligations under our network licence and contracts.
These constraints set the context within which we can pursue our objectives and outputs. All of these are permanent constraints: they will always affect our approach to network stewardship.
Promoters' schemes must meet the following criteria:
## Financial Constraints
A requirement is regarded as reasonable if it satisfies one or more of the following conditions:
it can be achieved at no extra net cost to us, including future maintenance or operational liabilities;
it can be achieved at no extra net cost to us as it forms part of a scheme which we're expected to undertake to renew or enhance the network;
the promoter commits to pay extra funds, or procure the payment of additional funds to us based on the cost of delivering and financing the enhancement, including a return which is commensurate with the risks we carry; or
the funding for the expenditure involved is explicitly provided for at an access charges review.
## Compatibility With Existing Commitments
A requirement is regarded as reasonable if it satisfies all of the following conditions:
it does not conflict with the existing access rights of other operators, including local output commitments;
it is not designed to give unfair advantage over other bidders in future franchise negotiations;
it does not impede our future ability to deliver the published strategy on any route, including
performance objectives for that route;
it is consistent with our regulatory obligations under our network licence, and statutory duties under the
Railways Act 2005; and
we can operate the revised infrastructure or service in a safe and efficient manner which is consistent with our safety case and existing processes and procedures.
Where a proposed scheme conflicts with an existing route strategy, we would consider amending the strategy, subject to discussion with our funders and other operators on the route.
## Deliverability Criteria
To avoid diverting resources that we need for the safe, efficient and reliable running of scheduled services, we will consider a requirement as reasonable if it satisfies all of the following conditions:
the requirement is clearly defined, and its scope and timescale for delivery are realistic;
the output is measurable, verifying that all parties can agree when delivery has been achieved;
we have, or can obtain, the necessary resources to implement the scheme;
network access can be made available; and
delivering the scheme does not compromise our ability to deliver the existing programme of works on
the route.
Notwithstanding the above, where there are constraints on our ability to deliver a scheme we will work with
promoters and stakeholders to find ways to relieve these constraints. Where we are only facilitating the delivery of a scheme, our ability to efficiently contribute to the scheme's delivery will depend on the promoter's adherence to the agreed programme plan as described in the contractual agreement, as well as the management structure and expertise they use to discharge their obligations. Deliverability constraints will not generally affect the vast majority of schemes that are delivered by a promoter. However, when any scheme is delivered, whether by us or a promoter, we must also take into account the stewardship obligations as set out in our network licence. For example, this might affect areas where a number of schemes are being proposed at a specific time, such as during the London Olympics. If these schemes make exceptional demands on resources, we may not be able to deliver every scheme at the same time whilst operating our network efficiently.
## Appendix E: Services Provided By Network Rail
The specific type of services we provide to a promoter will depend on the nature of the project and how many services you wish us to provide as against those services being provided by your team. We will consider projects on an individual basis according to the specific requirements and whether it is appropriate to provide a particular service. The lists below are for guidance only, but outline the services we can provide to a promoter to facilitate an enhancement project We'll discuss and agree your service requirements and our charges for these services with you before taking action or incurring charges. We will not charge for providing services for which we are already funded. In broad terms, the services we can provide are:
## Contestable Services:
Project development;
Design management; and
Scheme implementation through management contracting.
## Non-Contestable Services:
Asset protection;
Engineering safety management; and
Provision of asset information and booking of possessions;

Agreements for using existing operational land and railway assets.
## Appendix F: Approval In Principle
Every project reaching the 'approval in principle' stage of the investment lifecycle will be assessed on its individual merits. To give promoters some guidance about reaching the 'approval in principle' stage, we outline below our general assessment methodology and criteria. The basic concept of an 'approval in principle' derives from Network Rail standard NR/GN/CIV/133. This states that approval in principle requires that 'competent persons are satisfied that appropriate standards have been used in the design, and the scheme selected meets the remit'. In practice, different companies (including London Underground) have different definitions of when a project has reached the 'approval in principle' stage. To clarify our position, we deem that the 'approval in principle' stage is relevant when a decision is made to launch a detailed design (GRIP Stage 5) following the selection of a single option for the proposed enhancement. There must have been sufficient design work to clearly define the project's concept. The design must be detailed enough to make it clear what is intended, and demonstrate that all interfaces between the project and the environment in which the project is to be delivered are identified and addressed with specific action plans. This does not necessarily demand individual designs for the scheme's components. For example, to obtain an approval in principle for a station platform development, you will need to at least define the length, height, platform ramps, canopies, finishes, lighting levels, stepping distances, and provision of services (electrical supplies and passenger information). At this stage, though, you may not need to detail the design for cable ducts, drains, brackets, building components, fencing - except for, perhaps, the definition of a fence line, or for cable ducts being satisfied that the design provides for an appropriate size of duct, and the ducts to be correctly located in relation to other services for electromagnetic compatibility considerations. For an enhancement to the rail network infrastructure, approval in principle can be deemed to mean that:
the design has been assessed by competent people in the relevant disciplines who are satisfied that the design meets with relevant legislation and standards, and they expect it to meet its objectives;
the competent people are satisfied that the scheme design contains enough information for the detailed design and procurement of the individual elements of the design to proceed safely and effectively; and
the competent people are satisfied that the design will correctly integrate with other elements of the scheme, and the adjacent environment that the project interfaces with.
As a minimum, the following questions will usually be examined before a scheme reaches the 'approval in principle' stage:
Have you looked at all the feasible options and found a single preferred option?
Is the design detailed enough to be clear and unambiguous about what is intended?
Is the design sufficiently detailed that it is clear that the design is fit for purpose, by comparison with the requirements the design is to meet?
Have you considered the relevant legislation and other applicable standards in the scheme's design? And is the competent person satisfied that the design complies with the legislation and standards?
Is the competent person satisfied that the design is adequate to start the detailed design of individual components and assemblies?
Is the competent person satisfied that the separate elements of the scheme design will, when brought together, have the required functionality and meet applicable legislation and standards. Will they also
address interface issues between the project and adjacent buildings and systems?
Are the residual risks from the scheme's design demonstrably as low as reasonably practicable? Is
there a complete and adequate risk register available
to those who will carry out the detailed design, construction, testing and commissioning?
Have suitably qualified persons carried out the design, and have they followed an established design process?
Please note that NR/GN/CIV/133 places the responsibility on Network Rail to assess the competence of designers and engineers. We need to be satisfied that they understand their responsibilities, and that these responsibilities have been expressed and agreed in writing.
## Appendix G: Risk Management
Promoters' projects place additional responsibilities upon Network Rail to deliver development and design services, asset protection services and works for which it is not funded by the DfT. The template agreements frame the balance of risk and responsibility as between Network Rail and the promoter and introduce two risk funds to deal with Network Rail's contractual risks (the Network Rail Fee) and those risks systemic to the rail industry (the Industry Risk Fee).
## Network Rail Fee
The Network Rail Fee (NRF) covers our potential contractual liabilities to the promoter. For each type of agreement we charge a set fee as detailed in Table 1 at the end of this Appendix which reflects the different risk profile in each template. We pool all Network Rail Fees to meet claims for contractual breach and negligence which are substantiated and cap our liability at the level of the value of the works and/or services being provided (or £100k whichever is the higher), although liability for death, personal injury and fraud is uncapped. This cap on liability for breach and negligence applies to both emerging costs and fixed price agreements. However, subject to the usual qualifications, in the case of fixed price implementation arrangements, there would be no cap in respect of our obligation to deliver the works or services for the agreed fixed price.
## Industry Risk Fee
The Industry Risk Fee (IRF) provides appropriate funding support for industry risks. Typically these are the low probability, high impact risks specific to rail industry conditions. For each agreement type we charge an IRF as indicated in Table 1 below. Again, we pool these Industry Risk Fees to meet relevant industry risk claims when they arise. The IRF covers two broad categories of risk for the promoter:
1. risks which are typically regarded as 'employer' or 'government' risks in a traditional project financing or
Private Finance Incentive (PFI) transaction (for example, mandatory changes resulting from a change in the law peculiar to the rail industry, or changes to railway safety standards); and
2. risks relating to events arising elsewhere on the network which have an impact on:
the project which results in disruption to the works (for example, a late running disruption caused by a safety critical event), and
the network itself where, due to the project's existence, that impact is greater than it would
otherwise be.
In the event of a liability arising from an industry risk where the resultant costs are more than £10k, these costs would fall to the IRF and not to the promoter.
## Relief Events
The contractor, whether they're appointed by us or by you, will be reimbursed for the increased costs (excluding indirect costs) reasonably and properly incurred as a result of a Relief Event which causes delay or disruption to a project. The categories of Relief Event are:
network operation issues;
cancellation and alteration of possessions due to events outside the control of the project team; and
the impact of interfacing projects.
The contractor has the usual duty to mitigate such costs to give an incentive for appropriate behavior but the balance of liability will fall to us, and we will recover any compensation we pay from the IRF.
This assumes that in each case neither Network Rail, the promoter nor the contractor is at fault.
## Mandatory Variations
After approval of the works at GRIP Stage 4, if the works need to be varied as a result of any change in law or legal requirement expressly applying to the railway industry or the railway works, or as a result of changes railway safety standards, such costs would fall to us, and we will recover any compensation we pay from the IRF.
## Network, Station Or Depot Change
You will need to pay for costs associated with any network, station or depot change, or any closure processes. This cost can be uncertain and an estimate of the value may be made and a cap agreed. If so, your liability for costs above this limit would be treated as an industry risk.
## Land And Noise Claims
Claims made against us at common law or pursuant to the Land Compensation Act 1973 or any regulation made pursuant to that Act which is attributable to the design, carrying out, completion, operation or existence of any works which become a Network Rail asset. These claims are in respect of nuisance and the diminution of property values due to the implementation of the scheme. Whilst this is a promoter risk, where an estimate of the value has been made and a cap agreed, your liability for costs above this limit would be treated as an industry risk.
## Bankruptcy/Insolvency Of Promoter
Irrespective of the diligence applied to assess creditworthiness of the promoter and steps taken to obtain surety, there's always a possibility of insolvency or bankruptcy. In this event, particularly where the scheme is under way, the cost of termination or completion may require some additional funding above any surety. Given that by definition the promoter would be unable to pay such costs in full, and that such funding was not part of the original cost forecast, the funding shortfall would be funded through the IRF.

## Appendix H: Regulated Change Processes The Network Change Process
Before undertaking any proposed changes to the rail network, Network Rail (or a train operator if they are sponsoring the change) must follow the Network Change consultation process. This is a formal process which allows a proposer to seek agreement from all affected parties that the change may go ahead, and to agree what compensation (if any) will be paid to cover the impact of the change. A Network Change must take place on a piece of the network that we own and can be either:
Physical - like carrying out a piece of enhancement work on the infrastructure; or
Operational - like a change to the permitted speed on a line which will last for more than six months.
In both physical and operational cases, the change must materially affect the network's operation or the operation of trains on the network to be a formal Network Change. This materiality test is a subjective test which varies in different circumstances. When confronted with the question on whether it is a material change or not, ask yourself if the change will mean that the train driver will do something different. If so, it might be a Network Change. Only Access Parties (parties with a Track Access Contract) can propose a Network Change. If a third party wishes to do so, they must secure the agreement of an Access Party (Network Rail or a train operator) to sponsor the change. In our case, we'll always need an Asset Protection Agreement with the proposing party and, through the Asset Protection Agreement, Network Rail will normally seek reimbursement for the compensation costs that Network Rail will need to pay any Access Beneficiary as a result of the work that a sponsor will do on our network. We set out the consultation process in Part G of the Network Code but before the formal consultation, we advise the sponsor to carry out an informal consultation with anyone who might be affected by the proposed change. This is important so there are 'no surprises' when the formal consultation period begins. Formal consultees are:
any Access Beneficiary (including freight and passenger operators) affected by the proposed change;
DfT;
ORR;
each passenger transport executive that may be affected by the proposed change;
Transport for London if it is affected by the proposed change; and
Transport Scotland if it is affected by the proposed change.
The sponsor must then produce a formal Network Change notice which we will distribute to each consultee. We'll then put a summary of the notice on our website, along with the formal responses we receive.
The Network Code specifies that for changes we propose, consultees must have a minimum of 30 days to respond. For changes proposed by an Access Beneficiary, this must be a minimum of 60 days. However, we might extend these deadlines for large, complex or far-reaching proposals.
If the project is complex and involves changes to the network or consequential changes to vehicles, then the complex procedure could be used. When responding to a proposed Network Change, only Access Parties are entitled to accept or reject the change and, if applicable, claim compensation (see below).
Non-Access Party consultees like Passenger Transport Executives can only comment on the proposal, although they can refer any disputes to the ORR for determination. Reasons for rejection include:
there is inadequate information about the proposal;
the proposed change would breach an access contract between Network Rail and an operator;
implementing the change would result in a material deterioration in the performance of a train operator's service which they couldn't be adequately compensated for
the proposed change does not consider the Access Beneficiary's reasonable expectations for future use of the relevant part of the network; and
a change proposed by a train operator may also be rejected if it would result in an adverse effect on the maintenance or operation of the network.
Alternatively, Access Parties may accept the change.
In either case, Access Parties can claim compensation to cover the consequences of the proposed change. Such compensation should be:
'an amount equal to the amount of the costs, direct losses and expenses (including loss of revenue) which can reasonably be expected to be incurred…' (Condition G2.2) taking into account any 'benefit (if any) to be obtained or likely in the future to be obtained' (Condition G2.3).
However, please note that, compensation for disruptive possessions is paid according to Schedule 4 of the Track Access Contract. It is the sponsoring party's responsibility to work through any issues raised during the consultation process so there are no outstanding objections. If this means changing the network change proposal, this must be formally advised to all consultees, who must be given adequate opportunity to consider the revision and provide any comments, rejections or acceptances. The Network Change proposal may only be implemented if:
there are no outstanding objections; and
the parties have agreed either the compensation payable, or agreed on the methodology for
determining the amount.
Upon approval we will write to all consultees and publish the change on our website. We are then either entitled or required (according to whether the change was proposed by us or a train operator) to implement the Network Change.
Any Access Party involved in a Network Change consultation is entitled to refer an unresolved disagreement to the access disputes panel under the specific rules in Part G and in the access dispute resolution rules (in the annex to the Network Code). There is a further right of appeal to the ORR if any party to an access dispute panel dispute is dissatisfied by the determination. Such an appeal should adhere to the rules in part M of the Network Code.
## Station Change
The station change procedure is for when a development entails changes to a station lease area, physical or operational changes to a station, or changes that affect the content or drafting of Station Access Conditions and Annexes.
This is a procedure governed by the regulated 'station access conditions' for each station. At franchised stations the conditions are part of the station leases granted by Network Rail, and in the access arrangements between the train operator tenant and other train operators who use the station. At stations we manage the arrangements apply directly between us and the station users via the access agreements which also bind the user into the managed station access conditions. Under the station change procedure, a change proposal can be promoted by us, by any train operator or by a third party where they are investing over £50,000 capital expenditure on the enhancement or alteration of the station in connection with related schemes of development or regeneration. A third party's right to promote a station change was introduced in the revised station access conditions issued by ORR in November 2013. The procedure involves consultation by the party promoting the change with the other station users, and generally also the DFT or TS, and the ORR. This type of station change is always a Material Change proposal. If changes are to be made to a station, the regulatory requirements are satisfied by making a Station Change Proposal, securing approval of all relevant parties and registering the approved change with the ORR. For a detailed definition of a 'Change' please see the National Station Access Conditions 2013. The specific definition is found on page 6 in the Definitions section. For Managed Stations refer to the Independent Station Access Conditions 2013 - Page 7 .
The National Station Access Conditions 2013 (NSACs) and Independent Access Conditions 2013 (ISACs) also introduced new types of station change proposal where the type of Change Proposal required is determined by the nature of the physical works and/or by the materiality of the impact of the Change Proposal on the operators at the Station. There are three types of Station Change: Non-Discretionary Change, Notifiable Change and Material Change. There is also a specific definition of Exempt Activity that does not require a Station Change. For a definition of each type of Change Proposal refer to the National Station Access Conditions 2013 for franchised stations. The definitions of each type of change can be found on pages 17 - 19 and the change procedures are contained within Parts B and C of the National Station Access Conditions. For Managed Stations see the Independent Station Access Conditions 2013. The definition of each type of change is on pages 16 - 19 and the change procedures are contained within Parts 2 & 3. The selection of the correct type of Change Proposal is important for the change proposer as it has cost and time implications for the project - payment of costs and compensation to affected parties may be required but is not a requirement of all types of Station Change Proposal. Additionally, consultees may challenge the type of change proposal put forward if they disagree and this can cause project delays in resolving the dispute and potentially issuing a new change proposal as a different type of change. Projects involving extensive physical works will usually fall within the definition of a Material Change Proposal and all station change proposals promoted by third parties must be issued as Material Change proposals. Under a Material Change Proposal, consultees will either be qualifying or non-qualifying consultees, depending upon the financial impact upon them of the Change Proposal. Under this type of change, all qualifying consultees must approve the proposal and the proposer is required to offer to enter into a templated Cooperation Agreement with each qualifying consultee. The Cooperation Agreement sets out how the parties will co-operate during the project and includes a financial undertaking from the promoter of the Change dealing with the payment of compensation to each qualifying consultee to cover the net costs and losses they will incur as a direct result of the change proposal. Additionally, the proposer of a Material Change must provide a Relevant Undertaking to all qualifying consultees which provides the detail of the indemnity and/or insurance it is putting in place to ensure appropriate compensation is available to cover any costs or losses incurred if the development is not implemented in accordance with the terms of the original Material Change Proposal. In the circumstances where Network Rail agree to issue the Station Change Proposal on behalf of a promoter, the indemnity costs arising from the Financial Undertaking within the Co-Operation Agreement and from the Relevant Undertaking need to be built in to the business case for the proposal. In cases where Network Rail agree to promote the change on behalf of a promoter who otherwise qualifies to promote the change in their own right, Network Rail will recover all associated costs and compensation payments incurred as a direct result of promoting the change from the promoter.
Station Changes require the approval of the ORR where consequential amendments are required to the station access agreements with users of the station, or, where the change proposal is likely to materially diminish the number of passengers or trains that are able to use the station for a period in excess of 28 days. However, ORR approval is not required where the change proposal falls within one of the general approvals, which are preapproved amendments to a station, for example, adding facilities to station amenities. Where the general approvals don't apply, a specific approval will be needed. This requires the station change promoter to approach the ORR for specific approval. For more information see General Approval (Stations) 2013. All types of station change, once approved by consultees, must be registered with and, where falling outside of the general approvals, be approved by the ORR in advance of any works starting, or the station change will lapse and no longer be valid, requiring a new change proposal to be circulated and approved. For further information on the station change procedures please refer to ORR Template Documentation
## Depot Change (Light Maintenance Depots)
The procedure for depot change was not updated in 2013 by the ORR but does have some similarities to the station change procedure Depot change is required when a development entails changes to a depot lease area or physical or operational changes to a light maintenance depot or changes that affect the content or drafting of Depot Access Conditions and Annexes. The depot change procedure is governed by the regulated 'depot access conditions' for each light maintenance depot which form part of the depot leases granted by Network Rail, and in the access arrangements between the depot operator tenant and other passenger service operators who use the depot. Under the depot change procedure, a change proposal can be promoted by Network Rail, or by the Depot Facility Owner, or any User at that Depot. At the moment, third parties can't promote such proposals. The procedure involves consultation by the party promoting the change with the other depot users, and generally also the DFT or TS, and the ORR. A proposal for change to a depot must be sent to the Depot Facility Owner to distribute to the consultees; being all users of the depot, Network Rail and the DfT/Transport Scotland as franchising authority. A minimum period of 45 days is given for the users and Network Rail to submit an objection in relation to the proposal. A change proposal is deemed to have been accepted at the expiry of the 45 days period if none of the users nor Network Rail have issued an objection. DfT/Transport Scotland is a consultee but it does not have to give consent under the depot change procedure. Depot Changes require the approval of the ORR where consequential amendments are required to the depot access agreements with users of the depot, or, where the change proposal is likely to materially and adversely affect the capacity of the depot in relation to the provision of light maintenance services for a period longer than
28 days. However, ORR approval is not required where the change proposal falls within one of the general approvals, which are pre-approved amendments to depots and the contractual documentation. Where the general approvals do not apply, a specific approval will be needed. This requires the Depot Facility Owner to approach the ORR for specific approval. For more information see General Approval (Depots) 2013.
Most Network Rail promoted change proposals need unanimous consent or lack of objection from users.
Additionally Network Rail is required to offer an indemnity to each "Relevant Operator" offering to compensate for the material adverse effect on their existing and future business. Such indemnity costs need to be built in to the business case for the proposal.

## Providing References Policy 1 Introduction
1.1
This procedure sets out the Council's Policy on the provision of references for employment or other matters e.g. confirmation of salary for the purpose of obtaining a mortgage.
1.2
This should be distinguished from a manager's obligation to seek, and assess, employment references for candidates for posts within the Council, under the Recruitment and Selection Policy.
## 2 Employment References Completion
2.1
The following people are the authorised to complete employment references:
For current employees - the current line manager or a more senior manager
For former employees - the employee's line manager at the time the person left the Council. If that manager is no longer employed, the reference should be completed by the HR & Payroll Team.
For agency workers - the request should be returned to the organisation which sent it, with the advice that the individual was not in our employment, but that of an agency, and as such the reference should be provided by that agency. An employment reference should
not be completed in respect of an agency worker.
2.2
An employee who provides a reference when they are not authorised to do so may be liable to action under the Council's Disciplinary Policy.
2.3
If a personal reference is provided, the referee must ensure that the recipient is clear about its status i.e. It should not be presented as representing the view of the Council and the reference must not be on Council headed paper or sent from a Council e-mail address.
## Content
2.4
Although employers are not under any legal duty to provide job references, a
failure to do so could hinder an employee's future job prospects. It is therefore
expected that managers will provide an employment reference on request.
2.5
Managers must note that they are under a duty of care to ensure that any reference provided is factual and accurate, that it is fair to the individual and that it is not misleading.
2.5
A standard reference provides limited, factual information about the employee.
This is likely to be limited to the person's job title, their dates of employment and the reason for leaving (if they are no longer employed).
2.6
Where a former employee left the Council more than 6 years ago, managers should complete a standard reference. This will be based on the information held on the Council's HR management system. 2.7
As a minimum the line manager should provide a standard reference.
However, if they wish to offer more information they may provide a detailed reference. The manager may choose to:
provide a character reference based on their experience of the individual and / or
respond to any questions asked directly by the organisation seeking the reference. 2.8
Where specific information is sought, the manager must note the following:
(a)
Sickness Record Where available, managers should provide the number of days' sickness in the previous 12 months, and the number of occasions over which these days were taken. If the employee is no longer employed, this information should be based on the 12 months prior to their leaving the Council. The reasons for sickness, which are confidential, must not be disclosed.
(b)
Disciplinary Record Managers should only disclose any live disciplinary warnings which exist on the employee's personal file and should simply state the sanction applied and the reason e.g. 'written warning for persistent lateness'. Where an employee has left whilst disciplinary proceedings were not concluded, this should be stated without reference to the nature of the alleged misconduct e.g. 'Investigations were being conducted in accordance with the Council's Disciplinary Policy, though these had not been concluded at the time the individual left the Council.'
## Presentation
2.9
References should be provided on headed paper with the line manager's name and title printed under the signature.
| Effective From | Replaces | Originator | Page No. |
|-------------------|-------------|----------------|-------------|
| | | | |
| 1 January 2011 | New | HR Policy Team | Page 2 of 3 |
| | | | |
| | | | |
2.10 Where a proforma is provided for completion, the manager should clearly print
their name, job title and the Council address.
2.10 If the response is being provided by email, a copy of the reference must be
retained either electronically or as a hard copy
2.11 Where a reference is completed by means of an electronic form, the manager
must ensure it is clear that the response is provided on behalf of the Council. A copy should also be retained.
## 3 Employment References For Internal Applicants
3.1
Managers who are asked to provide a reference for a current employee, who
is applying for a post internally, should provide a detailed reference.
3.2
The Council has a policy of 'open references' for internal applicants. This means that the employee is entitled to be provided with a copy of their reference, from their named referee, on request.
## 4 Mortgage / Other Reference Requests
4.1
Requests for references regarding an existing employee's application for a mortgage or other matters should be forwarded to the HR & Payroll Team for completion.
## 5 Copies Of References Provided
5.1
A copy of any reference provided should be forwarded to the HR&Payroll Team for inclusion on the employee's personal file.
## 6 Further Advice
6.1
If employees are in doubt about whether they should complete a reference or on the content of any reference, they should contact the HR Advisory Team for further advice. | en |

## Chapter 1 Introduction Overview
OS MasterMap Water Network is a three-dimensional digital representation of the watercourses in Great Britain.
It includes rivers, streams, lakes, lochs and canals as a series of watercourse network lines. The network lines (links) are attributed to provide a range of information about the section of watercourse they depict. The OS MasterMap Water Network will significantly enhance systems used to manage waterways, river and the flood risk they pose.
##
Watercourses that are underground or below structures are included where Ordnance Survey capture processes or accepted sources can infer the connection. Polygons and lines representing the water area and its banks are not supplied in this product, but will continue to be maintained and supplied as part of the OS MasterMap Topography Layer product. The OS MasterMap Water Network is provided with three-dimensional coordinates.
## Key Features
OS MasterMap Water Network product includes:
Flow and connectivity.
Three dimensional geometry.
Catchment information including name.
Names of watercourses including language alternatives.
Vertical relationships where water courses pass over or under one other.
Average widths.
Additional information provided by national authorities.
## Standards
OS MasterMap Water Network is based on the INSPIRE Hydrography Data Specification, which itself is based on the ISO TC211 family of open standards.
## Coordinate Reference System
OS MasterMap Water Network uses the British National Grid (BNG) spatial reference system. BNG uses the OSGB36®
geodetic datum and a single Transverse Mercator projection for the whole of Great Britain. Positions on this projection are described using easting and northing coordinates in units of metres.
The BNG is a horizontal spatial reference system only; it does not specify a vertical (height) reference system. This water network product, unlike other OS MasterMap Layers, contains height values for the geometry vertices. Several orthometric height datums are used in OS MasterMap data to define vertical spatial reference systems. The most common of these is Ordnance Datum Newlyn (ODN), which is used throughout mainland Britain. Height values on the features do not specify which vertical reference system is used, although information on the extents of additional datums can be provided.
OS MasterMap Water Network is projected in the ESPG 7405 OSGB36/British National Grid + ODN. This projection is used as it specifies the Z value as Ordnance Datum Newlyn. In the GML data, this is represented by reference to its entry in the EPSG registry, as http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/7405 A guide to coordinate systems in Great Britain is available at: http://www.os.uk/docs/support/guide-coordinate-systems-great-britain.pdf
## Applications
OS MasterMap Water Network supports a wide range of customer applications that use geographic information. The product can be used alone or combined with other Ordnance Survey products such as OS MasterMap Topography Layer, OS MasterMap Imagery Layer and OS Terrain® 5. The OS MasterMap Water Network product could be used for applications such as:
Tracking water flows and contamination.
Flood prediction, protection and response measures.
Use with other OS products for better understanding, analytics and visual interpretation, for example OS Terrain 5.
The management of statutory directives relating to watercourses.
Ecology studies, for example species migration.
## Chapter 2 Os Mastermap Water Network Feature Types
OS MasterMap Water Network features are classified into feature types. Each feature type has associated attribution and further detail can be found in the Technical Specification. The OS MasterMap Water Network as currently published will consist of the following core features:
WatercourseLink
HydroNode
## Watercourselink
A WatercourseLink feature (figure 2) represents the alignment of a watercourse; the majority have
been derived from Ordnance Survey detailed topographic data, made available to customers as the
OS MasterMap Topography Layer. WatercourseLink features are split in the following circumstances:
Where two or more watercourses meet.
Where the real world based attribution of a watercourse changes.
Where the name of a watercourse changes or ceases to apply.
WatercourseLink features are not split where they pass under or over one another at different levels. They may be split where they pass into a culvert or tunnel or onto an aqueduct.
Height has been added to each vertex coordinate using the raw data used to create the OS Terrain height products.
## Hydronode
A HydroNode feature (figure 3) explicitly represents the source, sink, or junction of a watercourse. In addition they record the location where any real world related attribution changes.
A HydroNode feature may only exist at the end point of a WatercourseLink feature. Height has been added to the coordinate for the HydroNode using the raw data used to create the Terrain height products.
## Product Supply Supply Format
GML 3.2.1 zipped using gzip.
Supply Media OS MasterMap Water Network incorporates a web-based ordering system that allows the customer to order initial data supply and update, obtain price estimates and view details of their holdings on demand. http://www.os.uk/business-and-government/help-and-support/products/how-to-buy.html.
Full National set available on DVD.
## Coverage And File Size
OS MasterMap Water Network is a national dataset and is maintained and supplied as 5 km by 5 km tiles of data. File size estimates can vary from about 1 Kb compressed to about 780 Kb (compressed). A full national supply will be approximately 1.25 Gb compressed. Compression rates vary, dependant on the size and content of a tile.
## Geographic Chunking
To make the management of large areas easier, data is split into chunks, each of which covers a nominal square area or part of such a square or a nominated size. Chunk boundaries are imposed purely for the purpose of dividing large supply areas into pieces of a manageable size in a geographically meaningful way. Both full supply and updates are chunked. This section describes how data is chunked into geographic areas.
1. The customer submits an area of interest.
2. The online system creates a grid covering the entire area based on specified size; any 5 km by 5 km chunk
that intersects the area of interest will be included in the order (figure 4).
3. Each square grid forms a chunk file.
4. Each feature that intersects that square goes into the chunk file.
5. OS MasterMap Water Network is supplied in 5km by 5km chunks.
Where WatercourseLink features go over tile edges they are supplied in every chunk they intersect. Therefore, these features will be duplicated. Systems reading OS MasterMap data must identify and provide the option to remove these duplicate features. Empty chunks are not supplied; that is, if a chunk contains no information relating to a customer's selected themes then it would be an empty file and not supplied.
## Change Only Update
OS MasterMap Water Network change is supplied on a chunk basis. When a feature is changed all chunks that contain that feature are flagged as containing update. Within an updated chunk all features are supplied whether changed or not. Inspection of the individual metadata attributes can highlight when any individual feature has been updated.

0996-pdf | Associations between police-recorded ethnic background and being sentenced to prison in England and Wales.
Kathryn Hopkins, Ministry of Justice Analytical Services Summary and Aims This research demonstrated that there was an association between being from a Black, Asian, or Minority Ethnic (BAME) background (compared with being from a White background) and being sentenced to prison (compared with being sentenced to a community order or another type of punishment) in England and Wales, for offenders convicted of recordable1 offences in 2011. The effect was small but statistically significant.
The aim of this research was to investigate whether defendants who were recorded (by police officers) as being from a BAME2 background were more likely to be sent to prison than those who were recorded as being from a White background. This analysis was undertaken because offenders from BAME backgrounds are overrepresented within the Criminal Justice System. BAME3 offenders were sentenced to custody at a higher rate than White offenders between 2008 and 2011, for indictable4 offences, according to Courts data (MoJ, 2015). Explanations for this include the suggestion that BAME offenders may commit more serious offences than White offenders. In this analysis, twelve broad offence groupings were used, allowing comparison between defendants from different ethnic backgrounds within these groups. However, there remains a range of offence seriousness within the groupings (e.g. murder and common assault are both Violence against the person offences). Future analyses could include more detailed measures of offence seriousness to provide more certainty of an ethnicity effect (if it exists). Nevertheless, the use of logistic regression allowed age, gender and criminal history to be taken into account, alongside offence group; any remaining association between ethnicity and being sentenced to prison was independent of these factors.
Approach This research used an extract from the Police National Computer (PNC) recording the sentence given to all offenders5 convicted or cautioned for an offence in 2011 plus previous criminal history (414,066 offenders). Logistic regression models were built to explore whether any independent associations were observed between main offence group, criminal history, gender, age, nationality, ethnicity, and being sentenced to prison, compared with being sentenced to a community order or another type of disposal.6 These models have not taken into account7 all factors which were used in making sentencing decisions, such as mitigating and aggravating circumstances, the plea (guilty or not guilty) or the stage in the trial process when the plea was entered. However, this approach shows which factors (out of all factors in the model) were independently associated with being sentenced to prison, that is, were not as a result of association with a third factor. For example, imprisonment may result from either a serious crime, or a lengthy criminal record, or a combination of both (and other factors). The model determines where a combination of factors was associated with the outcome and also to what extent each factor made its own, separate contribution. Ethnicity was observed using PNC data, and may not always be reliable.8 However, assuming that police-recorded ethnicity is a proxy of self-declared ethnicity (see MoJ, 2015 for a comparison between the two), the results indicate where further investigation may be warranted. Data for this analysis came from 2011, as this was the most recent full year of data available at the time of the research. The analysis should be repeated using more recent data to observe trends over time.
Results Details on all offenders convicted or cautioned for any offence in 2011 were extracted from the PNC. The earliest offence in the year was selected when offenders were convicted or cautioned for more than one offence that year. **Table 1** shows the characteristics of male and female defendants by ethnicity.

Age at sentence varied, on average from around 29 to 31 years, across all ethnic groups. There were proportionally more non-UK nationals in each of the BAME groups than in the White groups, with non-UK nationals making up just over two-fifths of the BAME female group, and just over one-third of the BAME male group,
compared with around one in ten of each of the White groups (female and male). Differences in offence groups were observed between males and females: males were more likely than females to be convicted of sexual offences, whilst females were more likely than males to be convicted of theft/handling offences, for example. The group least likely to have previous convictions or cautions recorded was BAME females (53.2%), followed by BAME males (72.8%), then White females (73.8%), and finally White males (84.6%). At face value, the group most likely to be sentenced to prison was BAME males (20.7%), followed by White males (16.2%), BAME females (11.4%) and White females (7.6%). However, a direct comparison does not take offence group and criminal history into account. In order to make this comparison more robust, gender, age, nationality, ethnicity, previous convictions and cautions, and type of offence committed were entered into a logistic regression model to test for independent associations between these factors and being sentenced to prison (whilst all other factors were held constant). Age was entered as both a continuous variable, and by age group (seven categories). Previous convictions and cautions were entered as a binary (yes/no) and a continuous variable (number of convictions or cautions). Nationality (either UK or non-UK/unknown) was included to account for the high proportion of BAME defendants who were recorded as non-UK nationals. Offence group was recorded using twelve standard classifications.
Table 2 shows the results of the logistic regression model. Where comparisons were made between levels within factors, the reference categories are provided in parentheses (). An odds ratio (OR) greater than one11 shows increased odds of being sentenced to prison, and an odds ratio of less than one shows decreased odds of being sentenced to prison, compared to the reference category. For continuous data (age at sentence and number of previous convictions or cautions), the odds ratio is an estimate of the change in the odds with each unit change (e.g. with each increase in year of age). Odds ratios are related to probability or likelihood: increased odds means increased probability (of imprisonment). However, odds can take any value greater than zero, whilst probability is restricted to values between 0 and 1 (or 0% and 100%). A 40%
increase in odds (OR of 1.4) is considered small, whilst a 500% increase in odds (OR of 5.0) is large, for example. Increases in odds can be translated into increased probabilities of imprisonment (see **Table 4** for worked examples). The standard error shows how much the estimate varied across cases. The odds ratios have been converted into Cohen's D: a standardised effect size measure, which is interpreted in the 'Effect size' column as Small (S), Medium (M), or Large (L).

***Denotes statistical significance at p < 0.01. Ethnicity Being recorded by a police officer as coming from a Black, Asian, or Minority Ethnic (BAME) background was independently associated with approximately 39% higher odds of being sentenced to prison, than offenders who were recorded by police officers as coming from a White ethnic background. This effect was small, but statistically significant. Gender Males were independently associated with approximately 83% higher odds of being sentenced to imprisonment, compared to females. Again, the effect was small but statistically significant. Age Being over 18 years old was associated with at least three times the odds of being imprisoned, compared with being under 18 (juveniles). The effects of age (when grouped) were statistically significant and medium to large, however, this is because the probability of imprisonment for under 18-year-olds is very low. Each increase in year of age was not associated with a statistically significant change in the odds of imprisonment. Nationality Compared with UK nationals, the odds of non-UK nationals being sentenced to prison were approximately 56% higher. This may be due to the perceived greater absconding12 risk that non-UK nationals present compared with UK nationals, and because the previous criminal history of non-UK nationals may be unknown,13 thus limiting practitioners' ability to conduct valid risk assessments. This effect was small, but statistically significant. Offence group Sentencing guidelines are clear about the sentences expected for particular crimes. Compared with violence against the person offences, each of: sexual offences; burglary; and robbery were independently associated with increased odds of being sentenced to prison. This may seem counter-intuitive, but the violence against the person category contains some of the most serious offences, such as murder. However, murder is very infrequent, and the category also contains less serious offences such as common assault. Theft/handling stolen goods, fraud and forgery, criminal damage, drug offences, other indictable14 offences, indictable motoring offences, summary offences excluding motoring, and summary motoring offences were each independently associated with decreased odds of being sentenced to custody, compared with violence against the person offences. Many of the effects observed were medium and large and were all statistically signficant, demonstrating the importance of offence group as a predictor of imprisonment.
Previous convictions or cautions The odds of imprisonment were approximately 23% higher for offenders with previous convictions or cautions compared with those without. This effect was small but statistically significant. Each previous conviction or caution was associated with an approximate 4% increase in the odds of imprisonment. Although this effect was statistically significant, it was small, but increased cumulatively with each previous conviction or caution recorded.
Interactions between ethnicity and gender
Some offender characteristics may have interactive, or heightened effects on typical sentencing outcomes. In this analysis, the interactions between ethnicity and gender were of interest, because of the observation that women are underrepresented at different points in the CJS, and because previous research has demonstrated that men are more likely to be imprisoned than women for breach of a community order, under similar criminal circumstances (Hopkins et al., 2014). An interaction between gender, ethnicity and being sentenced to prison was observed (**Table 3**).

***Denotes statistical significance at p < 0.01. The relative odds of imprisonment were higher for BAME male offenders than for BAME female offenders (1.402 compared with 1.291, respectively). This means the odds of BAME male offenders being sentenced to prison were around 40% higher than for White male offenders, and for BAME female offenders the odds were around 30% higher than for White female offenders. Belonging to a BAME ethnic group was therefore more strongly associated with an outcome of imprisonment for males compared to females. The ethnicity association with custodial sentences is therefore greater for males than for females (although the effect is small), or, alternatively, the gender association is greater for BAME than for White defendants. In other words, BAME males were the group most likely to receive an outcome of imprisonment, even after factors such as offence group and previous criminal history were taken into consideration. Of all groups, White females were the least likely to be sentenced to prison. Predicted probabilities The logistic regression formula can be used to calculate the probabilities of imprisonment for example offenders. In **Table 4**, example offenders of UK nationality, convicted of theft/ handling stolen goods or robbery, aged 25 and with two previous convictions or cautions was used to calculate the likelihood of imprisonment for males and females, and BAME and White offenders.

For offenders convicted of theft/handling stolen goods, BAME males were more than twice as likely as White females to be sent to prison, under the same circumstances: each being UK nationals aged 25, with two previous convictions or cautions (17.2% probability of imprisonment compared with 7.5%). For defendants convicted of robbery, the probability of being sent to prison increased from around half (53.5%) for White females to around three-quarters (74.5%) for BAME males, under the same criminal circumstances.
Conclusion This analysis showed that amongst a large sample of offenders convicted in England and Wales in 2011, police-recorded ethnicity was independently associated with being sentenced to prison when offence group, criminal record, and other characteristics were held constant, although the effect was small. BAME offenders (particularly male BAME offenders) were more likely to be sentenced to prison than White offenders (particularly White female offenders), under similar criminal circumstances. Offence group was a stronger predictor of imprisonment, with offenders convicted of violence against the person offences, sexual offences, burglary, and robbery the most likely to be imprisoned. Criminal history was also important: having previous convictions or cautions was associated with increased odds of imprisonment, with the likelihood increasing with each previous conviction or caution recorded. Nationality was also independently associated with imprisonment: non-UK nationals were more likely to be sentenced to prison than UK nationals. This research could be repeated with more recent data, and with more factors added to the model (including more information on the seriousness of the offence committed). Additional factors which influence sentencing decisions, such as the plea (guilty or not guilty) and aggravating and mitigating circumstances, would enable a more accurate estimation of the 'ethnicity effect' on imprisonment.

## Annex B - Customs Handling Of Import And Export Freight (Chief) Introduction
The Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) system records the movement of goods by land, air and sea. It allows importers, exporters and freight forwarders to complete customs formalities electronically and automatically checks for entry errors.
CHIEF connects with five Community System Providers (CSP's) which are independent trade systems, that directly serve hundreds of carriers, transit sheds and freight forwarders to record and track the movement of goods within ports and airports, enabling them to operate more efficiently.
CHIEF is also part of HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) risk assessment process and as such identifies which consignments or which goods within a consignment will need to be physically examined or their documentation examined. This gives legitimate goods and those deemed to be a low-level risk faster passage when they are directly imported from third countries or directly exported to them from the UK.
## How The Chief System Expedites Imports And Exports
CHIEF is the national computer system from HMRC. CHIEF facilitates three key functions for HMRC:
-
the collection of £17 billion of revenue each year
-
the accurate collection of international trade and transport statistics
-
the protection of society by controlling the import and export of restricted goods,
and detecting the smuggling of prohibited goods
## Chief Services
-
direct trader access to electronic processing of imports and exports - including the
calculation of duties, currency and quantity conversions - and the automatic clearance of consignments
-
identification of goods which require documentary or physical examination making
use of a highly sophisticated risk profiling system
-
information for the production of the UK's external trade statistics
-
a means of electronic communication between customs and business users
-
validation of the accuracy of data input - CHIEF advises the users of any errors
-
recording, monitoring and accounting for duties and taxes incurred by individual
importers
## How To Submit Import/Export Declarations
Traders can submit import/export/Transit or Pre Arrival declarations by a variety of methods:
-
Community System Provider (CSP's) - Customs-approved third party service
providers offering trader access to inventory controlled ports around the UK
-
Excise Movement Control System (EMCS) - the EMCS is aimed at all Excise
businesses who are currently involved in the movement of goods in/under duty suspense
-
Import Control System (ICS) - ICS is provided for the use of traders responsible for bringing goods into the EU that require Safety & Security checks
-
New Community Transit System (NCTS) - a basic, free to use service, suitable for
low volume NCTS users
-
New Export system (NES) - for traders to submit (3rd country) Export Declarations
to the CHIEF system. Please note that at the present time, NES XML traders must obtain a digital certificate from an approved supplier
-
Customs do permit the submission of manually completed customs declarations.
Completed hard copy declarations should be submitted to HM Revenue and
Customs, National Clearance Hub in Salford
## Technical Specifications For Chief
CHIEF runs on Fujitsu Services Super Nova platform using the proprietary VME open operating system. The database system, IDMSX, is hierarchical and so that the transaction processing system encompassing the business functionality can be easily enhanced in the future. Middleware architecture was developed which provides a high level interface between the application code and the machine environment.
CHIEF supports both Human Computer Interface (HCI) and interface EDI traffic, with dedicated high-speed communications links to the Community System Providers (CSPs) and customs offices throughout the UK.
Sophisticated system security and resilience features have been built into the CHIEF
architecture to prevent sabotage or unauthorised access and to provide effective business continuity. CHIEF is future proofed. It is capable of accommodating changes in customs'
requirements and in the trading environment, whether in terms of volumes or patterns in trade.
The CHIEF system is supported by detailed guides for trade users and the more technically minded which address technical questions you may have on CHIEF
functionality. You can find CHIEF trade user guides on the HMRC website.
If you connect to CHIEF via DTI, you can refer to the documentation that has been provided by either your software package supplier or the CSP in question. Find a list of providers of commercial DTI links to CHIEF on the HMRC website.
## Fallback Options If Chief Is Unavailable
There may be occasions where the CHIEF computer and/or the local computerised inventory control systems are not available. The procedures which will be introduced in these circumstances are known as 'fallback'.
Fallback procedures may involve manual processing of declarations and/or other documents by HMRC.
There are two types of fallback procedures, short term (system not available for up to 24
hours), and a long term (system not available for over 24 hours). Short term procedures allow for the manual clearance of goods during fallback but require that the declaration information is later keyed into the computer system. Long term procedures do not require the declaration information to be keyed in.
When connectivity is unavailable for a short period, fallback measures will not necessarily be invoked. But traders may, when directed, use the following fallback procedure.
Once it is confirmed that some of the available routes into CHIEF have been down for at least half a working day and are expected to be unavailable for the foreseeable future, HMRC will invoke one of two fallback plans to enable entry procedures for users of the affected access route only.
You can check the status of HMRC electronic systems on the service availability page on the HMRC website.
## Csp System Local Fallback Forms - Ccs-Uk
In the event of sustained CHIEF unavailability and as part of local customs fallback procedures at London Heathrow Airport, users should use one of the CCS-UK user fallback forms, which any CCS-UK CHIEF user can submit through the Heathrow Entry Processing Unit (EPU).
You can find CCS-UK user fallback forms on the HMRC website. You can find details of the fallback plans within Volume Three of the Integrated Tariff of the UK (the Tariff), or you can call the NES Helpline on Tel 029 2032 6371 or the HMRC Excise & Customs Helpline on Tel 0845 010 9000.
You need to complete three forms under fallback procedures, including:
-
if you're not authorised for simplified procedures, you must complete all the required boxes on form C88/ESS (Export Security Single Administrative Document) as a full export declaration. However, if you're authorised for the Simplified Declaration
Procedure or Local Control Procedures, you can submit partially completed
C88/ESSs as Pre-Shipment Advices. This is initial data which must be followed by a full supplementary customs declaration up to two weeks after the goods have left the UK
-
the C88/ESS must be supported with a form C1402 stating that you'll send the SAD
declaration electronically once CHIEF is in operation again. Find form C1402 on the
HMRC website
-
finally, you must complete form C130EX for authentication by customs to indicate
that the goods have permission to progress. Find form C130EX on the HMRC
website
All these forms must be headed "Fallback" in red ink. You must keep copies of all forms that you fill in under the fallback procedures.
## Using The Management Support System
The Management Support System (MSS) is an interfacing database with the CHIEF
system. It contains archive data for all cleared customs declarations for import and export, offering importers and exporters opportunity to purchase a subscription or one-off report to keep accurate records of their consignments.
A purchased MSS subscription or report provides proof of sending the data to customs.
This is useful for audits, and also cuts down on administration - for example, the system contains the total amount of duty paid against the value of goods entered for imports. You can find frequently asked questions on MSS data to the trade on the HMRC website.
Reports available from MSS are:
-
sample reports - a single sample of one month's recent import and export data will
be made available to prospective customers to enable them to assess whether or not subscription to the scheme will be of benefit to them. This information can only be provided by means of a written request on business-headed paper from a responsible person of the business, for example sole proprietor, partner or director.
You can find frequently asked questions on MSS data to the trade on the HMRC
website
-
standard reports - four standard reports are available covering import item, import entry, import tax lines and export item data. For a single standard report a charge of
£180 per annum plus VAT for each type of report required
-
customised reports - these cost £360 per report plus VAT and you can request additional data items or historical data. However, not all data items available on
MSS are available for purchase in reports. HMRC reserves the right not to provide certain confidential information
MSS sends the information via email. The normal format for electronic delivery will be a downloadable Excel spreadsheet.
You can fill in a sales agreement for MSS reports on the HMRC website.
For any enquiries about MSS, you should email the MSS team at frontiersmssteam@hmrc.gsi.gov.uk

## Foreword
Every child and young person deserves stability - somewhere safe that they can come home to every day, relationships that are nurtured and developed over time, and a sense of security and belonging. We know that this stability is one of the things that helps children to achieve good outcomes, and for those who come into the care of local councils, it is why working towards permanency from the very start is so important. For some, permanency will mean returning home to their birth family after a period of time. For other children, adoption may be the best option, or perhaps living with a relative or someone else known to them under a special guardianship order. Similarly, long term fostering arrangements can offer a stable home without cutting links to the birth family. A very small number of young people might not want to live with another family, or may not be suited to it, and so will stay in residential care until adulthood.
Every councillor is a corporate parent to the children in the council's care, so should be playing their part in making sure we get the very best for each child. This resource pack is designed to help councillors understand what permanency is, the factors that can have an impact and the questions that will help to understand what's working well and what could be improved.
Support for children and their families - both their birth families and carers - shouldn't stop when a placement is made. Some children will have been through very difficult, potentially traumatic experiences before coming into care, and will need extra help to come to terms with that and go on to fulfil their potential. Councils need to make sure not only that families know what to expect when a child joins their family, but that support is available when they need it and not only at crisis point. Every plan for permanency should revolve around the child's needs, and that means listening to their wishes and feelings too. We have a duty to make sure that children not only understand what's going on, but are fully involved in the decisions that will have such a fundamental impact on their lives. As corporate parents, it is incumbent on all of us to strive for the very best for the children and families in our care. Permanence can make such a difference to a child's life, and it is our job to make sure that all children have the chance to find the loving, stable environment they deserve.

## Permanency An Introduction What Is Permanence?
The Children Act 1989 regulations state that 'permanence is the long term plan for the child's upbringing…to ensure that children have a secure, stable and loving family to support them through childhood and beyond and to give them a sense of security, continuity, commitment, identity and belonging'.1 While some children can move into permanence arrangements such as special guardianship without first coming into the care system, this resource pack will focus on permanence for children who are looked after by their council. It is important to note that for some routes to permanence, such as adoption and special guardianship, local authorities can only recommend that option for a child; it is for the court to approve or reject the proposed course of action. This resource pack will focus on areas that councillors are most able to influence and is therefore primarily concerned with council practice, but the role and influence of the courts and judiciary should not be underestimated.
## Types Of Permanency
Permanence arrangements vary for different children, according to what their needs are and what is in their best interests.
Return to birth parents For many children, a return to their birth family is possible after those issues that led to a period in care have been dealt with. In 2016-/17, this accounted for around a third of children who left care.2
Kinship (family and friends) care Kinship care is where a child lives with a relative, friend or other 'connected' person. Many children in kinship care are in informal arrangements, which do not involve the local authority (for example, where a parent asks the child's grandparents to take on full-time caring responsibilities).3
If a council places a child with a kinship foster carer, the child will have looked-after status but the local authority will not necessarily share parental responsibility. Councils can only place looked after children with kinship foster carers who are registered foster carers. Registered foster carers will receive a fostering allowance to help support the child. The financial support should be equal to the allowances/fees provided to other foster carers within that local authority (National Minimum Standard 28.74).

Adoption For a minority of children (around six per cent of all looked-after children in 2016/175), permanence is achieved through adoption, in which full parental responsibility is legally transferred to the adoptive parents.
Special guardianship Special guardianship provides an alternative form of legal permanence to adoption and can be used, for example, in cases where children, social workers or the courts feel it would be beneficial to retain links with their birth families. It should:
• Give the carer parental responsibility for
all aspects of caring for the child and for taking the decisions to do with their upbringing. The child will no longer be looked after by a local authority.
This is most likely to happen for younger children; in 2016/17, 78 per cent of children who were adopted were under five years old.
Just one per cent were aged ten or over.6
But adoption can be an excellent route to permanence for children of all ages, and should not be discounted purely on the basis of age.
• Provide a firm foundation on which to build
a lifelong permanent relationship between
the child and their carer.
• Be legally secure.
Adoption rates have varied significantly in recent years, peaking in 2015 with 5,360 adoptions before falling to 4,350 in 2017, though there are large regional variations.7
• Preserve the basic link between the child
and their birth family.
• Be accompanied by access to a full range
of support services, including, where
appropriate, financial support.9
Where adoption is considered the best option for a child, avoiding delay is key. Research has shown that a child's chances of being adopted reduce by half for every year of delay, while the age at which the child comes into their adoptive family has a significant impact on adoption outcomes.8
• The Adoption and Children Act 2002
outlines who can apply to become a special guardian for a child, including relatives and foster parents.
Long-term foster care Children living in stable, long-term foster care can have similar outcomes to adopted children,10 and this is a positive permanency option for those children who still identify with, and wish to maintain links to, their birth families. It can also be a positive option for children with complex care needs or who are harder to place for adoption, such as sibling groups or older children, providing them with long-term stability and ongoing care and support.

If long-term foster care is the plan for a child, it is important that work begins early to prepare the child for this, and to ensure that the 'match' between the child and the foster family is right, along with putting in place long-term support for the placement.
Residential placements Living within a family setting will be the preferred permanency option for most children, including those for whom residential care is a positive short-term option. However, for a small number of children and young people a long-term residential placement could equally be the best option. In particular, this can be useful for older children who are unable or unwilling to participate in family life due to previous experiences or the emotional demands of family living.
Fostering for adoption Where the preferred form of permanency for a child is adoption, they may be placed with approved adopters who are also approved foster carers while social workers continue to investigate all options for the child. Where the court decides that the child can be placed for adoption, the foster family will then be granted an adoption order, provided social workers and the court are satisfied the child's needs will be met in that placement. Fostering for adoption can limit the number of placement moves for a child, and allows them to begin building a relationship with potential adoptive parents from an early stage.
## Permanency Planning
Every child in care, including those accommodated under Section 20 arrangements, will have a care plan, and by the second statutory review (the fourmonth review), this should outline plans for permanence.11 Legislation and guidance are clear that if a child cannot return home, family members and friends should always be considered as the first option for permanence. Where this is not possible or not in the child's best interests, alternative permanent carers should be identified. Where alternate family living is not appropriate, long term residential care can be considered, and for older children, options for independent living should also be investigated. As part of permanency planning, contact and links with extended family, friends and other connected adults should be looked at to facilitate a wider network of support for the young person wherever possible, and where this is in the child's best interests and in line with their wishes. This can help a child to cope better with transitions, manage contact with birth parents and provide stability. Every permanency plan must focus on an assessment of the child's needs with a focus on outcomes and stability, while the child's wishes and feelings should be sought and taken into account along with the views of the child's carers.
## Statistics
The Adoption and Special Guardianship Leadership Board publishes quarterly data reports: www.gov
.uk/government/collections/
adoption-system-performance These include local authority-level data on the amount of time children wait to be placed with adoptive families, adopter recruitment and the characteristics of children waiting for adoption. Cafcass reports monthly on the number of care order applications made by councils: www.cafcass.gov
.uk/about-cafcass/researchand-data/public-law-data The Department for Education (DfE) publishes annual statistics about looked-after children, including information about the reasons for children leaving care: www.gov
.uk/
government/collections/statistics-looked-afterchildren (broken down to local authority-level).
## Definitions
A care order can last as long as the court believes it is necessary, until a young person is 18 years old, or until an adoption, special guardianship or child arrangements order is put in place.
Adoption order An adoption order is made by the court, and transfers parental responsibility for the child permanently and exclusively to the adopter(s). The child must have been living with the adoptive applicants for at least 10
weeks before an adoption application can be made.
Child arrangements order (previously 'residence and contact orders')
A child arrangements order is issued by the court and outlines who a child is to live with, who they will spend time or have contact with, when that contact will take place and what it will look like (for example, visits or phone calls). The order can remain in place until the child is 18.
Adoption panels Adoption panels contribute to the running and quality assurance of the local authority's adoption service, including making recommendations on the suitability of prospective adoptive applicants to adopt, advising on adoption support, and in some cases, recommending on whether adoption is suitable for a particular child.
The person named within the order as the person with whom the child will live shares parental responsibility for the child with the birth parents while the order remains in force. The child is not looked after by the local authority, and there is no social work involvement unless this is deemed necessary.
Adoption panels should have an independent chair, and membership should be drawn from people experienced in matters relevant to adoption, for example social workers, mental health workers and education specialists.
A child arrangements order may not offer the same degree of long-term security as adoption or special guardianship as an application can be made to revoke the order.
Cafcass Children and Family Court Advisory and Support Service. Cafcass represents children in family court cases in England, with a duty to safeguard and promote the welfare of children going through the family justice system including care proceedings and adoption.
Inter-agency fee Sometimes a local authority will need to place a child for adoption with an adopter who has been assessed, trained and approved by another council or a voluntary adoption agency. In these cases, the placing authority pays an inter-agency fee, which is a set fee to cover the costs of recruitment and training by the other agency.
Care order A care order issued under Section 31(1)(a) of the Children Act 1989 places a child in the care of their local authority. To issue the care order, the court must be satisfied that it is in the best interests of the child, and that a suitable care plan (including permanence planning) is in place.
Special guardianship order Special guardianship was introduced by the Adoption and Children Act 2002. A special guardianship order (SGO) is an order appointing one or more individuals to be a child's 'special guardian'. The order offers more long-term security than a child arrangements order, as a parent cannot apply for the order to be discharged without the permission of the court, but it does not end the legal relationship between the child and their birth parents as in the case of an adoption order. The use of SGOs has increased significantly in the years since its introduction. In 2011, 4,288 children (including those who had not previously been looked after) were cared for through an SGO, increasing by 67 per cent to
7,153 in 2017.12
The use of SGOs for looked after children has also increased. In 2017, 3,690 (12 per cent of those leaving care) ceased to be looked after due to a special guardianship order, an increase of 33 per cent from 2,770 in 2013.13
Supervision order A supervision order allows a council to monitor a child's needs and progress. A social worker will advise and help the child and the family that they are living with.
Placement order A placement order is an order allowing the local authority to place a child for adoption where there is no parental consent. A placement order has the effect of suspending a care order. If the placement order is subsequently revoked, the care order is reinstated.
Parallel plan (or twin track)
Parallel planning involves drawing up a contingency plan for a looked-after child at the same time as pursuing the main plan for permanency for the child. This means that if the preferred permanency option cannot be achieved, an alternative plan is immediately available to avoid drift in the child's case.

Section 20 accommodation Section 20 accommodation is where a child or young person is accommodated by their local authority and has looked-after status, but with the agreement of their parents - a care order from the court is not involved. Section 20 does not give the council parental responsibility over the child, and someone with parental responsibility can remove the child from care at any time.
Voluntary adoption agency A voluntary adoption agency (VAA) recruits and assesses prospective adopters who can then be matched with children who are in the care of a council. That authority then pays the VAA to cover their costs (no profit is allowed). All VAAs must be registered with Ofsted.
## Legislation And Practice Children Act 1989
needs that the child and their adoptive family might have. The Act also allowed unmarried couples, including same-sex couples, to apply for joint adoption.
The Children Act 1989 is the main piece of legislation governing child protection procedures. The Act allows for local authorities to take children into their care in two circumstances.
## Children And Adoption Act 2006
Section 20 allows for children to be looked after at the request of, or by agreement with, their parents. No court proceedings are required to accommodate children under Section 20.
The 2006 Act gave courts more flexible powers to facilitate child contact and enforce contact orders when separated parents are in dispute.
Section 44 refers to orders for the emergency protection of children, where the court is satisfied that the child is suffering, or is likely to suffer, significant harm if they are not removed to alternative accommodation.
## Children And Families Act 2014
This Act places a duty on every children's services authority in England to appoint a virtual school head (VSH) - an officer employed to make sure that the council's duty to promote the educational achievement of its looked-after children is properly discharged.
In addition, Section 47 outlines that where a child has been placed in police protection, the council has a duty to carry out enquiries to establish whether action needs to be taken to safeguard the child. The council does not have parental responsibility for children under police protection.
## Adoption And Children Act 2002
This Act outlines the legislative framework for domestic and inter-country adoption, and introduced special guardianship. The Act's guiding principle is that the needs and welfare of the child should always be at the centre of decision-making.
The Act encourages 'fostering for adoption' which allows approved adopters to foster children while they wait for court approval to adopt, and introduced 'staying put' arrangements which allow young people in care to stay with their foster families until the age of 21 years. The Act established a requirement for councils in England to facilitate, monitor and support these arrangements where this is what the young people and their carers want, unless the council considered these arrangements to be inconsistent with the welfare of the young person.
The Act requires councils and adoption agencies to consider the lifelong requirements of a child and any support
## Regional Adoption Agencies
The Act also introduced a 26 week time limit for the courts to decide whether or not to grant a care order for a child.
## Children And Social Work Act 2017
This Act defined, for the first time in law, the role of corporate parents, in addition to expanding and extending support for care leavers, for example through the publication of a 'local offer for care leavers' and making personal advisers available for care leavers up to the age of 25.
In 2015, the Government announced its intention to require councils to create regional adoption agencies (RAAs) with the aim of speeding up matching, improving adopter recruitment and support, reducing costs and improving outcomes for adopted children. It has ambitions for all local authorities to be in regional adoption arrangements by 2020. Provisions were made in the Education and Adoption Act 2016 allowing the Secretary of State for Education to direct councils to join these arrangements where they have not already done so.
The VSH role was also extended to previously looked-after children, including those in special guardianship arrangements or who have been adopted.
## National Quality Standards For Children'S Homes
Regional adoption agencies are expected to deliver all adopter recruitment, matching and support functions, other than in exceptional circumstances. Government was also keen that voluntary and statutory adoption agencies worked closely together in RAAs to make the most of the strengths of both. RAAs do not have to follow regional lines, with many councils opting to partner in subregional arrangements according to need and business cases.
The Children's Homes (England) Regulations 2015 set out nine quality standards which outline the aspirational and positive outcomes that all children's homes are expected to deliver. These quality standards are:
At the time of publication, Ofsted's intention was to inspect RAAs as part of individual council children's services inspections, rather than inspect the RAA separately.
• quality and purpose of care
• children's views, wishes and feelings • education • enjoyment and achievement • health and wellbeing
## Adoption And Special Guardianship Leadership Board
• positive relationships • protection of children • leadership and management
The Adoption and Special Guardianship Leadership Board (ASGLB) was established by the Department for Education in 2014 to provide leadership to the adoption system and drive improvements in performance.
• care planning.
Further information on each standard is outlined in the DfE's Guide to the Children's Homes Regulations.
The ASGLB is made up of senior officials from key organisations in the adoption system in England, including local authorities, voluntary adoption agencies and independent experts.
New statutory guidance was issued in January 2017 covering the new regulations.
In 2018, the board extended its focus to include special guardianship, recognising the importance of different types of permanence for different children.
## Adoption Support Fund Regional Adoption Boards
Regional adoption boards are regional subsidiaries of the Adoption and Special Guardianship Leadership Board. These are made up of a range of partners including council adoption leads, VAAs and an ASGLB sponsor, and they focus on regional adoption data which is reported into the ASGLB.
The Adoption Support Fund (ASF) was established by the Department for Education to help pay for therapy services for adoptive families both during and after adoption. The ASF is available for adopted children up to and including the age of 21 (or 25 with an education, health and care plan) who are living in England, and for special guardians who care for children who were looked after immediately prior to the special guardianship order.
## United Nations Convention On The Rights Of The Child (Uncrc)
Adoptive parents have the right to an assessment of their adoption support needs - this should be carried out by the placing authority for three years after the adoption order is complete, and the council where the family lives (if different) after that. If support needs are identified, the assessing social worker can apply to the ASF on the family's behalf, with money released to the local authority to commission the approved services.
Article 7 of the UNCRC states that every child has the right, as far as possible, to know and be cared for by their parents. Permanency with the birth family should always be the preferred option wherever possible, however this must be considered alongside Article 9 which states that children must not be separated from their parents against their will unless it is in their best interests, for example if a parent is hurting or neglecting the child.
## Sir Martin Narey'S Independent Review Of Residential Care
Further articles that should be considered in all cases include Article 3 (best interests of the child) and Article 12 (respect for the views of the child).
Sir Martin Narey was commissioned by the Prime Minister in 2015 to carry out an independent review of children's residential care.
## Special Guardianship (Amendment) Regulations 2016
The final report was published in July 2016 and contained 34 recommendations. These included ways to improve commissioning of places in children's homes, and to encourage development of the right sort of provision where it is needed. The review also recommended the piloting, and then full roll out, of 'Staying Close', a version of Staying Put in which young people leaving residential care can live nearby in supported accommodation to enable them These regulations strengthened the assessment of prospective special guardians, including a consideration of their ability to fully meet the needs of the child through to adulthood. Particular consideration must be given to meeting any needs arising from harm suffered by the child, and protecting the child from potential harm caused by contact with the child's parents or relatives.
to receive help and maintain links with staff in the care home as they move towards independence.
## Fostering Stocktake
In 2017, Sir Martin Narey and Mark Owers were commissioned by the DfE to carry out an independent review of foster care in England. The final report considered a range of issues around foster care, and included a section on permanence. The report found that fostering could be hugely successful for children, but noted that the emotional and financial support received by many children living with their birth parents throughout their lives ended for foster children at their 18th birthday. Despite acknowledging the benefits of the Staying Put policy the report argued that more children in foster placements should leave the care system via special guardianship arrangements or adoption, with longer term guarantees of financial support, thereby achieving what they term 'genuine permanence'.14
The report also recommended the establishment of a 'permanence board' to oversee the Adoption and Special Guardianship Leadership Board and the Residential Care Board, with the purpose 'to deliver to more looked-after children permanence in their care, and a sense of belonging which lasts well beyond the age of majority'. Finally, the report recommended that statutory guidance be reinforced to make sure that all children know of their right to advocacy, and how to access an advocate.
## Re B-S Judgement
The case of Re B-S in 2013 was perceived by some to change the threshold for adoption, making it more stringent, and it has been suggested that this is one reason for a reduction in adoption orders and increasing special guardianship orders in recent years. However, the Adoption and Special Guardianship Leadership Board, and the Family Court, have been clear that this is not the case. Rather, the case clarified the need for high-quality, evidence-based assessments of all realistic options for a child's longterm care, with the child's welfare and best interests at the heart of all considerations.15
## Family Justice Board
The Family Justice Board was set up to improve the performance of the family justice system and to ensure the best possible outcomes for children who come into contact with it. It is jointly chaired by Ministers from the Ministry of Justice and Department for Education and includes senior stakeholders from across the family justice system. Local family justice boards (LFJB) support the work of the Family Justice Board by bringing together the key local agencies, including decision makers and front-line staff, to improve the performance of the family justice system in their local areas.
## Key Lines Of Enquiry For All Councillors
It's also important to ensure that children are still able to influence ongoing plans when permanence has been established, for example requesting changes to contact with birth relatives.
## How Are We Giving Children And Young People The Chance To Express Their Views, Wishes And Feelings? How Do We Know These Are Being Acted On?
You should also ensure that a child's carers, who spend the most amount of time with the child and can advocate on their behalf where necessary, have the opportunity to input into care plans and permanency planning on an ongoing basis.
Children should be involved in developing their care plans, including having an input into permanency planning, and should be provided with advocates to help them do this wherever necessary. Social workers make the necessary arrangements for this to happen, and independent reviewing officers (IROs) should ensure children and young people are listened to and their views taken seriously. IROs should provide feedback on how well this is happening.
## What Support Is Provided To Families While Children Are In Care To Improve Their Chances Of Returning Home?
A key principle of the Children Act 1989 is that children are 'best looked after within their families, with their parents playing a full part in their lives', while Article 7 of the UNCRC states that every child has the right, as far as possible, to be cared for by their parents. Councils have a responsibility to provide support to families to address issues that have led to children being taken into care where there is a chance that this could lead to a safe, successful return home.
Consider in particular how your council engages with children with special educational needs and disabilities, those who may face cultural or language barriers to engaging in feedback processes, or very young children who may find it harder to explain their wishes and feelings. In some cases, there may be safeguarding concerns about children with particularly complex needs being asked to take part in certain ways of giving feedback. There should be sensitive discussion between the children's carers, advocates, the complex needs team and any other relevant professionals to find the best ways of engaging these children, who should still have the opportunity to say how they feel about their care.
Councillors will want to know what support services are provided for different issues, such as help to address family conflict, housing issues, drug and alcohol abuse or mental health issues. How long are the waiting lists for these services? How has this changed in recent years? Are both children and adults able to access the specialist services that they need, including those that support their health and wellbeing? Supporting families to address often complex issues requires significant time from dedicated officers. Are social worker caseloads manageable, enabling them to spend the necessary time with children and families? Has the Troubled Families programme been used where appropriate to support families where there is a risk of children being taken into care, or who are already looked after? Most councils have seen family support and public health services affected by increased demand and falling funding. Have any services been cut recently, and what impact has this had on children and families? What work takes place with partner agencies such as the police and NHS to identify demand and fund and commission services? Support for families when a child returns home is also vital. The return home itself must be carefully managed, and arrangements for ongoing monitoring and support set out prior to the child's return. Is this happening in every case? What proportion of children who return home end up returning to care? If this is increasing, what are the reasons behind this and how is it being addressed?
## How Do We Recruit Adopters And Foster Carers?
Matching children to the right adoptive or foster family is key if the placement is to be a success, and this will naturally be easier to achieve with access to a varied pool of adopters and foster carers. It is useful to know whether adopter recruitment is currently effective or needs to be improved, whether this is currently done locally or as part of a regional arrangement. How long do children in your care wait for a match, and what plans are in place to ensure future sufficiency of adoptive placements?
For foster care, how many placements do children have before a suitable long-term placement is found? How many children are placed out of area? If your council is placing a higher proportion of children out of area than its statistical neighbours, or than it was two years ago, for example, it is important to ask why. Is this because children need very specialist placements that can only be found elsewhere, or because there are not enough placements locally? Are some children harder to find a match for than others, and how are those 'gaps' in recruitment being addressed? Sibling groups or children with higher needs, for example, can be harder to place, particularly for adoption, so specific recruitment strategies may need to be put in place. Consider how prospective adopters and foster carers are treated. What channels can people use to express an interest, and are enquiries always followed up in a timely manner? Are people encouraged to apply, or are there barriers? How are applicants supported through the process? You may also wish to look at how foster parents can be supported to adopt or move into long-term arrangements, if this is what they wish. The interests and wishes of the child should always be paramount, including where this means considering adoption from outside the existing pool of approved adopters.
## How Do We Match Children With Potential Long-Term Carers?
Any child approved for adoption for whom an active match with an approved adopter is not being pursued after 90 days must be referred to Adoption Match, the statutory matching service for England, though they can be referred sooner. This is an online database containing details of children waiting to be adopted, and information about approved adopters. What proportion of children approved for adoption are referred to
## How Do We Avoid Drift?
Adoption Match, and does your authority wait the full 90 days to do so? If so, why is this? Do any children wait longer than 90 days to be referred? Authorities may also wish to consider using a service which supports the matching of children with approved adopters and foster carers.
Drift is where children remain in placements that are not part of their permanency plan for longer than necessary. Evidence shows that delays can reduce the chances of permanency, result in a need for more intensive interventions later on, and could leave children in unsafe or unsuitable placements.16 All care plans should, by the four month review, outline how permanence will be achieved for the child, and it is important to work to the timescales in that plan to avoid delay and uncertainty for the child.
Does your council take part in activities such as adoption activity days or child appreciation days to support the matching of children? Adoption activity days provide the chance for prospective adopters to meet a number of children, while child appreciation days are an opportunity for prospective permanent carers to get to know the child better by speaking to those involved in their care, and to understand their background more fully. Events such as these can be particularly helpful for children who are harder to place.
The Children and Families Act 2014 introduced a 26 week time limit for care proceedings, though extensions are available in complex cases. When care proceedings are issued - that is, the council asks the court to look at a child's situation and decide if a legal order is needed to keep them safe - the council has 26 weeks to investigate the child's situation further and produce a care plan. The court will then decide whether to issue a legal order. How many of your council's cases meet the 26 week deadline, and how has performance changed over time? For those cases where the deadline has been missed, why did this happen and are you satisfied that this was in the best interests of the child?
It's important to take into account the views and wishes of a child or young person wherever possible when matching them with a long-term carer. This is easier where a child has a positive relationship with their social worker and other professionals working with them; if children trust the adults around them, they are more likely to confide in them and share their opinions. Are children given the opportunity to do this wherever possible, ahead of a move to a permanent carer? And are children able to visit placements before a final decision is made? It is also useful to receive feedback from your adoption panel to see whether improvements could be made to how placements are made. In addition, what training do adoption panel members receive, and how regularly is this refreshed to ensure they are in a position to make the best possible decisions for children?
Drift can occur for a number of reasons, including high social worker caseloads, difficulty finding a suitable permanent match for a child or sibling group, or disagreement between professionals and others involved in the child's care on the best approach. Parallel, or twin track, planning can help to avoid drift by investigating two different permanency options at once to ensure that if one option becomes unavailable, a suitable alternative can immediately be used. It is important to consider whether social worker caseloads within your council are manageable, and if the average caseload is above target, find out what is being done to address this. How long do children in care wait before moving into permanent arrangements? The Adoption and Special Guardianship Leadership Board collects and publishes quarterly data for all local authority areas outlining information about children placed for adoption and timescales.
## What Support Is Provided To Permanent Carers Preplacement?
To improve the chances of a successful, longterm match, it is important that carers are fully prepared for both the challenges and the rewards that they can expect. When a match is made, carers should receive as much relevant information as possible about the child, including possible physical, mental or emotional health problems. Similarly, children should be provided with as much information as possible about their future carers. It is useful to understand the support package available to permanent carers before placement. For example, are counselling services or financial support available? How are they signposted to additional help, and when a placement is made, is it clear how to access support from day one?
An adoption support plan should be prepared with an assessment of the needs for adoption support services for the child, the prospective adopters and any children of the prospective adopters to ensure that support can be put in place before a child goes to live with their new family. Is the same pre-placement support available to long-term foster carers and special guardians as to adopters? If not, has this appeared to have had an impact, such as higher rates of placement breakdowns or increased requests for support postplacement?
## What Training Is Provided For Permanent Carers?
Children and young people who are no longer able to live with their parents may need additional, and sometimes significant, support throughout their lives. While many will adjust to their new families well in time, others will need help to cope with previous trauma, and all permanent carers will need to understand the potential issues that children can face as a result of separation from their birth families. Councils and fostering and adoption agencies will already have training plans in place for foster carers, residential staff and adoptive parents. Is this training also available for kinship carers and special guardians, and is it available on an ongoing basis to keep carers' knowledge and skills up-to-date, as well as ensuring they can access support when needed? How are the different support needs of different types of permanent carers identified and addressed? It's important that assumptions aren't made about permanent carers' abilities to care effectively for children and to ensure support is available for all - for example, having an existing connection to a child may not equip a kinship carer to address the specific needs of a child. Help to improve and develop relationships to support placement stability and permanence is key. It is also helpful to know how frequently training plans and provision are updated, and what information is used to inform the training offer. How is feedback from existing and potential carers incorporated? Can the council work with other fostering and adoption agencies to enable a breadth of training opportunities for a range of carers?
## What Support Is Provided For Children And Families In Permanent Arrangements?
Regardless of the form that permanence arrangements take, children and families may need support to maintain that arrangement and to help achieve positive outcomes, and to protect their health and wellbeing.
arrangements, issues may develop many months or even years after the arrangement begins. Ongoing help should be available to all children and families, not just those who are still looked after, to support the placement and increase the changes of the arrangement lasting. Make sure that special guardians, adoptive parents and others involved in permanency arrangements know what support is available on an ongoing basis, and check whether this is suitable for their needs. Providing assistance only at a crisis point may be too late; early help for families can be key in helping them to tackle issues and remain together. Peer support for both parents and children can be highly effective, providing an opportunity to share experiences and develop strategies for dealing with different issues. Are support groups, mentors or other methods of peer support available for permanent carers, birth parents and children? Are these accessible for all, for example including those with disabilities or from more remote areas?
Adoptive families and special guardians have access to the Adoption Support Fund (see page 12), which can fund therapeutic support. Make sure that families in your area know about the fund, and are receiving assessments in a reasonable time frame where these are requested. Find out also what analysis is done of those services that are required, and how services are commissioned. If some services are more specialist, are there opportunities to achieve better value for money through jointcommissioning with other authorities? How many times (if any) has the council been asked to match fund more intensive support? Were any of these applications refused, and if so, what was the reason for this? All children should be able to take part in life story work, which can help them to understand their life journey and identity, including a sensitive explanation of the reasons that they cannot live with their birth family. Are foster carers, special guardians and other permanent carers given training and support to carry out life story work with the child(ren) in their care?
For those families who adopt or care for a child with complex needs, respite care can be a vital support mechanism that gives carers a break from significant caring responsibilities, allowing them the chance to rest and focus on other relationships while providing an enriching experience for the child. Find out whether respite is offered to permanent carers, and how much of this is planned or emergency. Has demand increased in recent years, and if so, has supply kept up? How are respite carers recruited?
## How Are Special Guardians Supported?
Children who are looked after by their local authority receive support from the virtual school head (VSH) to help them to reach their potential at school. The Children and Social Work Act 2017 extended this support to any child previously looked after by an authority in England or Wales, including those who have been adopted or are living in special guardianship arrangements. Is information on this service easy to find for those families who may want it?
Special guardians may have different support needs to other permanent carers for a range of reasons. Many special guardianship orders (SGOs) may be unplanned, for example as a result of an unexpected change in birth family circumstances, therefore special guardians may not have had as much training or time to prepare as foster carers or adoptive parents.
Due to the trauma that some children may have experienced prior to entering permanent Most special guardians will already have a relationship with the birth parents, for example through being a relative or existing foster carer. This can result in an expectation of increased contact when the SGO is implemented, as the child is no longer 'in care' and the legal link with the child has not been severed as in adoption. All parties may need additional support to understand the SGO and manage expectations and ongoing contact. In determining the amount of ongoing financial support for special guardians, the Special Guardianship Regulations 2005
require councils to 'have regard to' the amount of fostering allowance which would have been payable if the child had been fostered. While this does not require councils to pay special guardians the same allowances as are paid to foster carers, a number of recent court cases have found that special guardianship allowances should be in line with fostering allowances. Find out what allowances are currently being paid and, if lower than for foster carers in any cases, are you satisfied that the reason for this discrepancy is fair and in line with regulations?
## How Is Contact With A Child'S Birth Family Managed?
Whichever permanency arrangement a child is in, if it is outside the birth family then the issue of contact must be carefully considered. In some cases, contact can be beneficial for children, allowing them to maintain links with their family and helping them to understand their identity and history. For others, contact can be damaging and even potentially threaten their placement. The Children Act 1989 requires that local authorities promote and support contact between children who are looked after and their families unless it is not in the best interests of the child's welfare, while the Children and Families Act 2014 allows for the court to make orders around contact between an adopted child and their birth family. Arrangements for contact must always be in the best interests of the child, and this may change over time - both in terms of the regularity of contact (if any) and the type of contact - so regular reviews are important, and the voices of the child and their carers or adoptive parents should always be clearly heard in these reviews. Different arrangements may be required for different relatives - for example, where contact with birth parents may not be appropriate, contact with siblings in different placements could be very positive. How frequently are arrangements reviewed, and how are the child's wishes factored into this planning? What support does the child and their carers or adoptive parents have to cope with contact and to request changes? Children may benefit from the support of an advocate to help them explain what they want and need from contact with their birth relatives. Consider also the impact of social media on contact. Even where contact is not considered appropriate or beneficial, birth relatives are often able to find and contact young people on social media with relative ease if they so wish. Young people and their carers or adoptive parents must be prepared for this possibility. How are young people
(whether looked after by the council or in other permanency arrangements) taught about privacy settings on social media, what are they taught about their birth families and what emotional support are they given to prepare for, or deal with, contact? Contact arrangements may look very different for those in SGO arrangements rather than adoption. Often SGOs are arranged with relatives or others close to the birth family. Depending on the circumstances leading to the arrangement, this can sometimes result in contact arrangements that are difficult to manage for special guardians, and birth parents may need additional support to understand the importance of adhering to them. Is additional support such as mediation available where required for special guardians, children and birth parents?
the appropriate team? This may not be as clear for adopted children or those in special guardianship arrangements as for those in long-term foster care.
In addition to contact with birth families, also consider how contact with previous carers and friends is managed. These can be important relationships for children and young people, and play an important role in identity and developing a sense of self. In the case of former carers, these may also be able to provide valuable information and advice to those providing permanent placements.
## Do All Of Our Councillors Understand Their Corporate Parenting Responsibilities?
Children who are, or who have been, in care are more likely to experience mental health problems than their peers, while mental health support services such as talking therapies can be helpful not only for children but for families in permanence arrangements. How does the council work with NHS partners, in particular CAMHS (child and adolescent mental health services) to make sure that this support is available when it is needed? Where children have physical, mental or learning disabilities, how is support commissioned to help children and their families to cope with these and thrive?
All councillors in a local authority that has responsibility for looked after children are corporate parents. This means they have a responsibility to ensure that children in the council's care get the same opportunities as other children.
## Does Your Council Have A Good Relationship With Your Family Court?
Detailed information on the corporate parenting duty for all councillors is available in our Corporate Parenting Resource Pack: www.local.gov
.uk/publications The proportion of adoption orders granted varies across the country, so it can be helpful to understand your council's relationship with the local family court to identify whether any changes need to be made to improve outcomes for children.
## How Productive Are Your Relationships With Partners To Support Permanence Arrangements?
Information on the numbers of adoption orders granted are available in adoption scorecards.17 If you are seeing a discrepancy, high or low, in adoption orders granted for your council or region compared to the national average, or if a high proportion of care proceedings are taking longer than 26 weeks, are the reasons for this clear? What discussions have been held with your family court to make sure proceedings run smoothly and avoid delays for children and families.
The council should be working closely with local partners - schools and the NHS in particular - to support permanence arrangements. Schools should be engaged through the virtual school head, while the council and NHS can work together through the health and wellbeing board.
Does someone from your authority sit on the Local Family Justice Board? These exist to examine local processes and report to the national Family Justice Board to improve performance at national and local level. This can be a useful forum to raise any issues How are schools engaging with the VSH to ensure that pupil premium money is spent appropriately to enhance children's experiences at school? What mechanisms are in place to ensure that, if there is a concern about a child that could require more intensive support, this is passed on to and find ways to make sure that all relevant agencies locally are working well together.
## Do You Have A Positive Relationship With Voluntary Adoption Agencies In Your Area?
How many VAAs are in your area, and how proactively does your adoption service work with them to find matches for children? What feedback do you get from VAAs on how your service operates? As regional adoption agencies become more established, VAAs will play an important role, so check how they are being engaged, and ensure their role in the RAA is clear.
## How Has Our Performance Changed Over Time, And How Does It Compare With Our Statistical Neighbours?
If your adoption rates are significantly lower than those of your statistical neighbours, or if children are waiting longer to be matched with adoptive families, find out what the reasons for this are. Sometimes one or two cases can affect the average for good reason, for example if your council has placed a sibling group or child with complex needs, however if there are delays with the family court or broader problems finding matches, you will want to look into this more closely. If your adoption rates are significantly higher than those of your statistical neighbours, consider why this might be and whether alternatives are being adequately investigated where appropriate. If your council's performance on adoption has changed recently, for example a shift towards more special guardianship arrangements, it is helpful to look at the reasons for this to understand why this change has taken place and be confident that this is delivering the best outcomes for children.
What proportion of adoptions, SGOs and other permanent arrangements break down, and what work is undertaken to avoid this? Has an increase in SGOs been accompanied by an increase in the proportion of SGOs issued with supervision orders? What assurance do you have that this is still the best approach?

## Research In Practice (2013) 'Fostering And Adoption Learning Resources' Https://Fosteringandadoption.Rip.Org.Uk Case Studies Peterborough And Tact
The TACT Peterborough Permanency service grew out of a realisation by Peterborough City Council that they needed to do something radical to improve their fostering services and a determination by TACT that they wanted to assist a local authority in doing just that. Peterborough understood that care services would always be subsumed to the needs of child protection services in terms of senior management time, and after considering a range of options, concluded that having an expert partner delivering these services under contract would allow them to concentrate on improving child protection services and make the improvements that they desired to see. The shared overarching vision was to improve outcomes for children through better recruitment, support and training of local foster carers, improving local placement choice for children in care and helping to maintain their connection with their home communities. This will also reduce overall unit costs by reducing reliance on higher cost independent fostering agencies and residential placements.
Implementation The involvement, encouragement and support of councillors in Peterborough was crucial to this service being created, without councillor agreement it simply would not have happened. The Peterborough cabinet member for children's services sits on the governance board and plays a crucial role in overseeing the new service and helping to overcome any issues that come up along the way
.
Political support at all stages is crucial and councillors must be bought into the concept and the process.
Challenges and solutions Public sector procurement processes are often cumbersome and so it took quite a long time to create the service as it had to be tendered and bids judged. However, the council undertook this diligently and awarded the service to TACT in the autumn of 2016. Peterborough also expertly ensured that affected staff were informed and consulted with throughout the process and staff and foster carers were involved with interviewing potential providers and had a say in the final award. The TUPE process is crucial as is involving foster carers at the earliest possible opportunity. Each staff member had the opportunity of a one-to-one with TACT managers, so all had their questions answered, fear allayed and were fully informed about the vision for the new service before signing up to join. All staff volunteered to transfer over as did all foster carers.
Sustainability The contract is for 10 years with a 10-year extension. Both sides have to be committed to this service for the long term in order for it to be effective. The children's care placement budget is large and sensitive to increases in numbers. Difficult decisions still need to be made about financial support if numbers of children in care rise. However, the council has clear targets for TACT about increasing in-house fostering capacity and promoting the use of special guardianship orders (SGOs). TACT is responsible for family group conferences and ongoing SGO support. The
## Aspire Adoption Agency
improvement in this has been a key feature of the new permanence service.
Aspire Adoption Agency was one of England's first regional adoption agencies (RAAs) to open its doors following two years of development work by the councils involved and their local voluntary adoption agency
(VAA).
Successes In August 2018 Peterborough City Council's children's services received its first 'Good' across all areas rating from Ofsted since its formation as a unitary authority in 1998. Inspectors singled out both the significant and impressive improvements Peterborough had made to child protection and family support services and the contribution of TACT's permanency service. Ofsted also noted that this service was 'seamless', a real compliment to the close working relationship between TACT and the council.
Key learning points
• Cross party buy in to doing this, especially
in councils where political control is marginal.
Bournemouth, Dorset and Poole councils were already joining up work effectively across a range of areas, and agreed that coming together in an RAA, with their local VAA 'Families for Children', was an opportunity worth exploring. The councils established a project team with significant involvement from the lead member and director for children's services from each authority, coming up with plans that were developed and approved through the scrutiny and cabinet process in each.
• The permanence service could be
contracted out to a charity like TACT but could equally be created as a 'spin out' community interest company wholly owned by the council or a number of councils.
A successful bid to the DfE for early adopter funding meant that a project manager with a business change background could be employed from the end of 2015 to take the process forward. Managers from each of the adoption teams worked on developing operational arrangements, however carrying out the work on top of existing roles proved challenging and it was agreed in November 2016 that an existing adoption team manager should be seconded to the project team as an operational manager.
• The key is that the entity, whether
contracted partner or spin out, is wholly focused on fostering, adoption and SGO/ kinship families. It is this focus that allows the improvement in quality, the increase in capacity and the attendant improvement in outcomes for the children that the council
are the corporate parent for.
• It is worth considering retaining
procurement services in-house so outside placements, such as residential or 16+ services, are procured by council officers. There are VAT issues and other budget management issues that make this an attractive and prudent option. All placement costs relating to in-house foster, adoptive or kinship care should be devolved to the new entity
Between the award of the early adopter funding in October 2015 and the presentation of final business cases to each cabinet in early 2017, the project team faced a number of hurdles, including common partnership working issues such as finance, IT and data sharing protocols. However, a strong commitment at a senior officer and political level in all councils, and experience of working closely on other issues, proved invaluable in reaching agreements. Key issues to be negotiated were around the organisational structure, governance and where the agency would be based, and managers took the opportunity to involve staff in shaping and building a more effective service. It was agreed that bringing specialist workers together would help to improve timescales and lead to better outcomes for children, and the opportunity for new roles and more innovative ways of working was a selling point for staff.
The DfE commissioned external agencies to help project teams across the country when considering governance models to ensure independent and comprehensive analysis of the options, opting in the end for a 'hosted' model in which Bournemouth would host the RAA on behalf of all partners. The trustees of the VAA agreed that it would remain separate to the RAA to retain its identity, but would work in close partnership with it, and it is now commissioned by the RAA to provide certain adoption support services. The RAA and VAA work together in partnership to provide training and support to approved and prospective adopters from both agencies across the region. While multiple sites for the RAA were considered, partners agreed that establishing a joint culture for the agency was vital and a single site with good transport links was set up. 'Touch down points' were also established in several council buildings further afield from the main base that allowed social workers to work elsewhere if it suited them on particular days. Home working is also an option. This flexibility meant that most workers moved over to the new organisation despite it being based out of the home authority for some. The RAA began operation in July 2017, with staff bringing their existing caseloads with them to maintain stability. Managers have focussed on stabilising the service and establishing the Aspire culture, with staff now starting to look for where improvements can be made. The agency is overseen by two management bodies, one looking at operational issues and one a strategic partnership board. Both bodies feature representation from all councils involve to ensure ongoing discussion, involvement and buy-in.
Key learning points
• IT is vital. Outstanding support from the IT
departments at the authorities involved and particularly the host local authority made the move over to the RAA seamless.
• Additional business support is also vital,
both pre and post go live, to set up systems and to deal with the increased volume of activity.
• Commitment for the project at a senior level
- both officer and political - is essential for efficient decision-making and to work through potential blocks.
• Dedicated staff whose focus is solely on
establishing the RAA can keep the work on
track and ensure the process receives the attention to detail that's vital to make it a success.
• The support of staff for the new service is
key, so regular and meaningful engagement should be a strong feature of any project plan.
## Stockport
Stockport's recent Ofsted inspection was quick to applaud its work to ensure an adequate supply of suitable carers, noting that 'fostering recruitment is sharply targeted and based on a well-informed understanding of children's needs and gaps in resources'.
Such effective targeted recruitment in the fostering service has been refined by the team over the last ten years, and is carefully informed not only by close working with the wider Stockport Family service to recruit the carers needed, but by the Fostering Network's market research and feedback from existing foster carers and care leavers. A dedicated recruitment marketing officer develops the team's recruitment strategy and drives this forward to ensure that its aims are met. Stockport identified an urgent need to recruit foster carers who could offer fostering placements to older children and teenagers, so concentrated on using adverts with images of older children in their publicity and advertising materials. This targeted advertising helped the service increase the number of foster carers recruited to foster teenagers and older children.
opinion was returned seven days before the review, so the process itself was adding four weeks of delay, and the social workers' reports were already five weeks out of date before they got to the point of the meeting where key permanence decisions were made.
In addition to informing recruitment strategies, existing foster carers and care leavers are also involved in all of Stockport's recruitment activity, from speaking at open evenings and giving radio interviews to allowing their stories to feature in case studies and press features. This brings the service to life, highlighting to potential carers both the realities of the role, and the enormous difference that they could make to a young person's life.
The paperwork includes the legal referral form, which is around seven pages long; the report and minutes of the last looked-after child review; the options appraisal document from the social worker; and on top of all of that, a parenting capacity assessment, contact assessment and possibly a sibling assessment. The period of reviewing all of this material is very intense, and on average it took one to two days of solicitor time to go through the papers and prepare the opinion.
The service has worked hard to make sure that where recruitment activity brings potential foster carers to its door, they are immediately supported and welcomed. Live chats are held online for those looking for initial information, Twitter and Facebook channels are regularly updated to encourage engagement, and open evenings provide informal opportunities for people to find out more.
Was time being wasted?
I decided to find out if there was wasted time where the reports were just sitting with legal services. Did they really need to be with our team for the full four weeks? Using a Plan Do Study Act cycle to test what could be done - you plan it, try it, observe the results and act on what is learned - I discussed with colleagues and social work staff how the time could be minimised.
Regional working has also made a big difference. Stockport has been actively involved in the North West 'You Can Foster' consortium of 22 councils since 2013. The consortium runs local and regional campaigns, simplifying and strengthening messages about the support and training available while fostering through each local authority
. You Can Foster now accounts for 16 per cent of all enquiries received by the fostering team.
It became apparent that four weeks was not needed to prepare a legal opinion: that using the full four weeks just boiled down to competing diary commitments. Often, when the papers landed with us, four weeks was the timescale it took for us to find a solicitor with time to look at them.
## Aberdeenshire
When Aberdeenshire started PACE (Permanence and Excellence in Care) in 2014, the obvious thing to look at was our procedure for giving legal advice in respect of a child's plan; it is one of the biggest areas of work for the solicitors in our team.
We came up with a change idea where social workers working with a family would give us the heads up at least five weeks before the planned review so that we could set aside solicitor time to deal with the reports. They could then carry on working on their reports for at least three weeks and give us everything fourteen days before the review meeting. We would then, as before, return the paperwork seven days before the review. A final tweak of the process involved the solicitor getting the papers a few days earlier so that the opinion could be returned ten days before the review in order to give the social At the time, the procedure was that all the relevant papers were sent to legal services five weeks before the Options Appraisal Looked-After Child Review - that's where a child's plan is considered. We immediately looked at the five-week period to see if there was anything we could improve there. The worker time to look at it before it is lodged along with all the other papers for the review. The key change was social workers giving us that notice period of at least five weeks. In practice, I am encouraging social workers to contact us to book in the opinion when the review date is fixed. As a result, I am now getting calls saying that there's a review in three or four months' time, so it's easy to find a solicitor who is available two weeks before that, and they can mark off their diary and set enough time aside. The key is timescales, on both sides: social workers getting the work booked in and ensuring they have got the papers to us, and us making sure we have the time blocked out in the diary to deal with it.
Questioning assumptions Previously we had just worked the way we had always worked, and we said we needed the papers a month in advance to make sure we had enough time to get things done. What we had to do was question the assumption. It's not really changed the work we do, it's just more focused now. Before, we could get that daunting stack of papers and know we had four weeks to deal with it, so it could be put off, but we have found that solicitors like the new way of working because having a deadline focuses them on the job.
Social workers also like being given a strict deadline, and they very much value being given an early point of contact: they know the lawyer who is going to be working with them in advance and they can be a bit more relaxed knowing they can pick up the phone and discuss issues informally. The upshot of all this is that three weeks have been cut off the process. That might not seem a lot but if everyone involved does something similar it will have a major impact.
Strengthening relationships The other major benefit is that the reports should only be about two weeks out of date by the time the meeting takes place for the child's plan. It has also helped build relationships with social workers so that they feel that we're there for support, and ultimately it helps improve things for the children. With a view to further strengthening working relationships, the legal team, who are based at the council headquarters, will be visiting social work offices and teams so they can get to know us and put names to faces, and that makes communications better. We are also developing some better general guidance and hints and tips for social workers over things such as parental rights and contact, giving them more training and guidance.
What we'll do next The next area we want to look at is possible drift and delay in applications to sheriff courts for permanence orders. My initial research has shown that our court timescales weren't as bad as we thought: the majority of cases were being resolved in about four months. But, we have had a few issues recently so I've made up a table to look at what delays there are. If they are at our end, then we can do something about it; if it's to do with the court process itself then the data will help with us talking to the sheriff courts and asking if there could be a different or quicker way of doing this. Our motivation in all this is twofold: we are committed to delivering a first-class legal service, so that means taking a lead in the permanence process, and looking for ways to support our colleagues. It's also down to a commitment to the ideas behind PACE: we all really want to get the best outcomes for the children we work with. With thanks to the Centre for Excellence for Looked After Children in Scotland for the use of this case study, which was first published at www.celcis.org strengths and barriers to permanence.
## East Renfrewshire
They helped us to start a compulsory supervision order sub-group, where we are looking at permanence decisions for children that in some instances, due to various sources of drift and delay, have gone on living in uncertain conditions for more than five years.
As a social worker for East Renfrewshire's intensive family support services team, I work with and support the most vulnerable children, and along with multi-agency colleagues, I'm involved in making difficult decisions about permanence for children. These decisions can be really tough to make, so I'm very focused on the importance of evidence-based practice when making them.
We were encouraged to speak to all of our colleagues and ask them what's in the way, what are the barriers, and how can we change things?
Drift and delay is a huge issue Over recent years, before getting involved in PACE (Permanence and Excellence in Care), we were aware drift and delay was a huge issue for children, and we know it can have a very serious detrimental impact on them.
We support each other One thing that came up is that social workers aren't feeling very confident, or particularly competent at times to manage the extremely complex set of tasks and decisions in the permanence process and to get it right, especially for those most vulnerable children.
Sometimes as a social worker, you feel you are compounding that difficulty when you are trying to get children through various parts of the wider system towards a permanent destination, so drift and delay is something which is always at the forefront of a social worker's mind: sometimes you feel quite disempowered in effecting the right change.
We decided peer supervision and supporting each other could be a way forward. Formal supervision by managers is crucial but we have found sitting with colleagues, the informal side of supervision, is invaluable to reflect on decision making, so we have started a peer-mentoring support group. It's to support each other with making timely decisions, having robust assessments and defensible decisions that we can take to children's hearings, feeling competent and confident about them. You can sit with your legal framework and know that you are putting forward a case in the best interest of the child, using evidence-based practice.
Our role is about eliminating oppression and disadvantage for children, so it has been great that the CELCIS (Centre for Excellence for Looked After Children in Scotland) team has come on board to work with us and help us think about the big decisions we're making.
From working with social workers right through to going to court, children should have the same life opportunities as our own children; they should know their permanent destinations and who's going to love and care for them.
So in a peer supervision session, we identify a hearing that's due, or a big report, especially for the most difficult and complex cases, and we sit with a colleague to get their view.
We need to explicitly put children at the heart of things I think all too often we've been living in a culture where we haven't been explicitly putting children at the heart of things, but now it really feels like a time for change. CELCIS has come into East Renfrewshire Council to enable and support social workers front-line and on the ground level, to ask about our experiences and to talk about the We have check lists that let us focus on issues such as why we have a compulsory supervision order, what the legal remit is, is there anything else we have to do, what decisions are we making, and do we have to make other ones, and also to consider why has this child been in this situation for a while. And, it's back to that old "but why?" question - we are all trying to encourage each other to sit with that wee parrot on the shoulder that keeps asking "but why?".
Learning from each other It's been really inspirational, we are all learning from each other. We critically reflect, we critically analyse, we write reports that are defensible and robust so that critical actions and decisions can be made in the best interest of children, and this is giving us an opportunity to do that. It's early days but we're seeing a few real results from this - social workers have been into children's hearings and felt empowered, they have achieved permanence decisions quicker and they've felt it's gone really well. Workers are saying it's great to strip things back to the bare bones to get them to think about why they are doing things and what it will mean for a child's life.
Working with the children's hearing system One specific part of the system a lot of social workers were worried about is the children's hearing system. It seems to be an area where we are not always feeling so confident in getting decisions which match our recommendations. Because of that, CELCIS facilitated a working group where social workers and members of the children's hearing panel get together to go through some of the issues we face, and some of the dilemmas which are presented at children's hearings. We talk about issues and barriers and about reducing their impact to make a real difference in children's lives, and this helps provide a good environment and culture for everyone who is working in the best interests of children. It can be such an adversarial process that we have to remember that children have to be right at the centre of any decisions made.
With increasing confidence, we're on
the right track We've had quite a few good decisions and some feedback from workers that they are feeling more confident. It doesn't always work, but it's about growing and learning and chipping away, and trying to make a difference to the children and young people we work with.
It's been a really enabling process where workers feel empowered to do the job and fulfil that definition of social work; to have the capacity to eradicate disadvantage, enlighten families, and make a difference to children's lives through the GIRFEC (Getting it right for every child) agenda.
We're very hopeful that, through all the work that CELCIS is supporting us with, the PACE agenda has grown in momentum. I'm not sure what the future holds but it feels like we're on the right track.

About CITI

## Executive Summary
The Ofice of Rail and Road ('ORR') and Highways England ('HE') have commissioned CITI to review HE's portfolio and programme management capability and determine the scope for eficiency improvements. The findings from our review are summarised below:
## 1 Current Portfolio And Programme Management Capability
HE's programme management capability is well established and maturing. However, its portfolio management capability has received less focus until comparatively recently and is therefore less well established but is developing rapidly.
## 2 Plans To Improve Capability By The End Of Road Period 1
Detailed plans exist to further develop programme management capability, which if followed could lead to a high level of capability by the end of Road Period 1 ('RP1'). Given the strong determination to improve but with less detailed plans to further develop portfolio management capability, the level of maturity that could be reached by the end of RP1 is far more variable. Although, if a continued focus is placed on portfolio management capability and detailed plans are developed in the near term it is possible that a significant increase in maturity could be reached by the end of RP1.
## Executive Summary 3 Improvement Trajectory For Capability To The End Of Road Period 2
Currently there are too many variables to confidently predict the exact trajectory to the end of Road Period 2 ('RP2') but it is anticipated that:
- programme management will maintain the high level of maturity attained by the
end of RP1, and
- portfolio management will reach maturity in the early stages of RP2 if this hasn't
been achieved by the end of RP1 due to other more pressing priorities.
## 4 Scope For Eficiencies Resulting From These Improvements During Road Period 2
Based on our experience and case studies of similar portfolios, noting HE is governed diferently from a fully commercial company, we estimate that the adoption of a full portfolio and programme management capability by HE would make the execution of its capital portfolio 10-15% more eficient than if it did not have any capability in this area. As shown by the improvement trajectories in section 3, HE already has a significant capability in this area and the eficiency register indicates that approximately half the current rate of eficiency savings can be attributed to portfolio and programme management. Taking in to account the total savings to date in RP1 and the estimated proportion of those attributable to portfolio and programme management, it is reasonable to conclude that a significant proportion, but not yet half, of the 10-15% savings potential from portfolio and programme management is
## Executive Summary
already being achieved. The remainder of the 10-15% savings potential should be achievable by HE given its present level of commitment and approach. It has detailed plans in place to deliver further capability that broadly align with the remainder of RP1 which should generate a further significant increase and reach a saving level in the region of approximately half the savings potential. Future plans to be detailed and implemented through RP2 should generate the final savings and achieve the remainder of the 10-15% potential. Determining exactly the proportion of the remaining savings to be achieved in RP2 is dificult to estimate because of the number of variables and distance into the future, not least the actual outcome of RP1, so 'Figure 2 - Potential Savings' is indicative and cannot be scaled.
## Conclusion
HE is making good progress realising savings from portfolio and programme management and there is scope for further savings as summarised above. It is recommended that HE continues to implement the detailed plans in place for programme management capability development and develops and implements further detailed plans for the development of portfolio management. Continuing to implement HE2020 together with reviewing and considering the recommendations in this report will significantly contribute to the pace of development. A further capability review is recommended at the end of RP1 to re-confirm management focus, robustness of plans, review progress, update the trajectories to the end of RP2 and assure the realisation of savings from portfolio and programme management capability.
## Introduction
The purpose of this report is to determine the eficiency improvements that HE can make by improving the way that the company manages its portfolio and programmes of capital projects (designated funds, major improvements and renewals to the strategic road network) during Road Period 2 ('RP2') April 2020 to March 2025 by developing its portfolio and programme management capability.
## Introduction Context
ORR is the government appointed independent monitor of performance and eficiency for England's Strategic Road Network. Since April 2015, they have been monitoring HE to hold the company to account on its commitments to improve the performance and eficiency of England's Strategic Road Network. HE is the government owned company mandated with operating, maintaining and improving England's strategic road network (4,400 miles of motorways and major A roads). Formerly the Highways Agency ('HA'), it became a government company in April 2015.
Upon transition in April 2015, HE changed from a legacy organisation with an annual funding and planning horizon to an organisation with a five year funding and planning horizon. Additionally, this change included a substantial increase in delivery to 112 schemes and associated funding exceeding £11bn for the period 2015-2020 (RP1). As well as significantly increasing the number of major schemes and in turn the size and complexity of the portfolio, this change also means that HE is required to take a greater role in developing the Road Investment Strategy ('RIS') from conception and the long-range strategic planning of the selection, prioritisation, development, resourcing and delivery of the portfolio of schemes. To meet this need, it was recognised by HE senior executives that a corresponding step change in capability to operate and plan over a longer term horizon as well as an increase in headcount to accommodate the increased delivery was required. HE has been rapidly developing its portfolio and programme management capability to meet this challenge. ORR together with HE invited CITI to review HE's portfolio and programme management capability and the potential for further eficiency savings in RP2 and beyond, as appropriate.
## Our Approach
CITI has many years' experience working with clients in diferent sectors developing, implementing and improving portfolio and programme management capability. We have drawn on this as well as established best practice to undertake the analysis and determine the recommendations, recognising the unique status of HE as an infrastructure provider recently formed as a government owned company from an executive agency.
## Acknowledgement
CITI would like to thank the staf of both HE and ORR for their generous cooperation in our research and in the preparation of this report.
This section is structured to address the four components specified in the tender document:
1. Assessment of HE's current portfolio and
programme management capability
2. Assessment of HE's plans to improve capability
by the end of RP1
3. Establish an improvement trajectory for
HE's portfolio and programme management capability to the end of RP2
4. Determine the scope for eficiencies resulting
from these improvements to portfolio and programme management during RP2.
## Findings And Analysis 1 Assessment Of Highways England'S Current Portfolio And Programme Management Capability Portfolio Management Capability
HE has made it consistently clear in its published documents that it is committed to developing portfolio management. This commitment was borne out during interviews undertaken for this report. The initial requirement for portfolio management was recognised and developed during the conception and formation of HE from the HA. The longer term funding and planning horizon, greater responsibility for delivering outcomes and substantial increase in capital delivery meant that HE would need to undertake greater management of the portfolio of work. In particular HE needed to:
- take over high level and early stage scheme planning and ordering of the portfolio
previously undertaken by the DfT
- optimise the portfolio to maximise throughput of new projects (schemes) in
conjunction with maintenance and renewals activity
- manage the increased size of the portfolio - facilitate the eficiency savings being targeted.
## Capital Portfolio Management
The first stage to developing portfolio management was the establishment of the business unit 'Capital Portfolio Management' ('CPM'). This unit was conceived by the Major Projects Change Programme and incubated in Major Projects. Although originating from Major Projects, it was always envisaged to be a pan HE entity and it is increasingly growing its pan-organisation influence and facilitation of capital portfolio management across the directorates. The current focus of CPM is:
- constructing and optimising a baseline capital portfolio plan that is value for money
and deliverable
- optimising business policies, processes and initiatives in support of constructing and
managing the capital portfolio
- providing visibility and advice on HE improvement initiatives funded from the capital
budget
- supporting the drive for efectiveness of outcomes which in turn releases value and
drives eficiency
- further developing portfolio management by working with other directorates to
establish an integrated portfolio management ofice change group.
## Capital Portfolio Management Stafing
The senior roles in CPM have been stafed by permanent HE personnel and they are responsible for the areas expected in a developing portfolio management function. Being relatively new and growing quickly, CPM has necessarily engaged contractors to assist with resourcing where permanent resources were unavailable. The majority of the contractors have been supplied by the Programme Delivery Partner ('PDP') which is supporting scheme delivery as well as the Major Projects Change Programme. The PDP is made up of a consortium of PwC, Mace and CH2M. They have been commissioned on task
notes to undertake specific tasks rather than via role descriptions for populating particular roles. CPM is aware that the full range of role descriptions does not yet exist for the developing CPM team and is planning to develop the rest of these together with a career path for developing CPM staf as well as inputting to and encouraging a wider career path for portfolio management across HE. Writing the role descriptions and recruiting permanent HE staf into the posts will reduce the reliance on contractors. In turn this will provide a more eficient resourcing model for CPM and ensure the capability being developed is retained by HE on a permanent basis. A career path will also increase staf retention and further retain capability
## Recommendation 1.1: Complete The Drafing Of Cpm Role Descriptions And Fully Resource The Unit With Permanent He Staf.
For some of the other more senior roles in HE, outside of CPM, the need for portfolio management skills is described in their role descriptions as shown in 'Appendix 1 - Job descriptions and roles analysis'. This means portfolio management is recognised as existing more widely across HE than in just CPM.
## Recommendation 1.2: Construct A Portfolio Management Career Pathway For The Longer Term Development Of Cpm And The Wider Portfolio Management Across He. Portfolio And Project Control Frameworks
The Operations Portfolio Control Framework ('OPCF') and the Major Projects Project Control Framework ('MPPCF') describe very well how to manage projects within their portfolios and explain the stage gate approval process for individual projects. The MPPCF has recently been strengthened to reflect the new responsibilities of HE, for example, projects will now consider if renewals can be incorporated within them. However, neither framework includes processes for how to manage at a portfolio level the scheduling, dependencies, resource contention, risks and interaction of elements across a wider enterprise portfolio. An enterprise portfolio is that which operates at the very highest level in an organisation and encompasses the totality of the organisation's investment in changes required to achieve its strategic objectives. Enterprise portfolio management ('EPfM') is the management of that portfolio to optimise the overall organisation wide change in pursuit of the strategic objectives. The level of governance and management associated with EPfM can vary depending on the organisation and environment so the framework to operate within should be tailored accordingly.
Recommendation 1.3: To support the increasing maturity in portfolio
management, develop and document more advanced portfolio management processes for managing dependencies, contention, risks, resource usage and scheduling at an enterprise portfolio level.
## Good Practice - Optimising The Portfolio
As reported in the National Audit Ofice ('NAO') March '17 report 'Progress with the Road Investment Strategy', there are up to 16 projects which do not appear to represent good value for money. It is recognised that these need to be addressed by redesigning, merging, delaying or cancelling projects. This is a core discipline of good portfolio management
practice. With Executive and Board level support, CPM has optimised the portfolio to free up valuable resource and accelerate the remaining portfolio. A separate independent and recent review into the value for money and deliverability of the portfolio concluded that the planning and risk management undertaken by HE, and in particular CPM, was thorough and robust.
Considering the recency of formation of CPM it is a testament to their eforts and rapid pace of development that the level of output being achieved is as high as evidenced by the recent review above.
Further examples of good practice in portfolio management can be seen in 'Table 1 -
Examples of good practices in portfolio and programme management' which shows the breadth of adopting portfolio management across HE. It shows that whilst CPM is very important and a cornerstone in the development of portfolio management in HE, it is not the only instance of developing portfolio management. Taken together, the wider examples of portfolio management and CPM's work optimising the portfolio indicate the current high growth rate across all of HE which provides a strong foundation for further growth.
## Programme Management Capability
HE has an established and maturing programme management capability. This has been a major part of the focus of the Major Projects Change Programme. In particular there are examples of:
- appropriately constructed, established and managed programmes (See 'Appendix 2 -
HE's utilisation of programme types')
- knowledgeable and experienced programme staf - role descriptions and a new career path developed for those working in programmes - awareness of the importance of programme management to the eficient delivery of
schemes.
Programme management in HE is more developed and mature than portfolio management. There is more guidance and documentation supporting programme management than portfolio management. For example, there is a capability maturity model, accompanying maturity assessments and career path for programme management. These are on the 'to do' list for portfolio management.
## Programme Hubs
Programme hubs provide information to CPM and are a key communication conduit with CPM but belong to the respective programmes they directly support, providing a programme and project management support function. Within the Major Projects Directorate, they are undergoing significant development via the Major Projects Change Programme. Currently the hubs appear to focus on aggregating and summarising management information from individual schemes via progress dashboards and risk registers. The aim is to achieve a higher maturity level and undertake more control, advice and guidance. Actively developing the capability of programme hubs will enable them to support portfolio management approaches, such as, managing consolidated risk registers and relative prioritisation.
Recommendation 1.4: Continue the development of programme hubs in support of the further development of portfolio and programme management capability.
## Findings And Analysis Consolidated Risk Management
Some risk reporting within HE, for example in Major Schemes, combines all individual scheme risks to provide a programme wide view. While this provides individual scheme oversight, there also needs to be an overview of the net efect of the consolidated risks on the overall risk profile of the programme. This will enable any underlying causes to be managed centrally where appropriate. This central management of programme wide risks is a common feature of mature portfolio and programme management. The approach is already being undertaken in the Smart Motorways Programme ('SMP') and it would be worth rolling out the principle across other major projects and renewal programmes. Please see the glossary for further details on aggregated and consolidated approaches to risk management in portfolios and programmes.
## Recommendation 1.5: Ensure A Consolidated As Well As An Aggregated View Of Risk Exists For Portfolios And Programmes. Resource Constraints
HE has significantly grown its staf base since formation in order to undertake its additional responsibilities and delivery of the larger and more complex capital portfolio. Programme and Project management resourcing has been a major part of this growth. HE is continuing to recruit in order to reach its planned resourcing level. The number of schemes starting in the final year of RP1 is greater than in any previous year and HE is recruiting in preparation. Although recruitment has been lagging behind the target the gap is narrowing quickly and HE is confident it will hit its target resource level. In the meantime, HE has utilised the resources of the PDP to support and partially resource the Major Projects Change Programme to develop capability. The capability is now largely designed and HE is moving the implementation across to HE permanent staf so the capability can be internalised. This will reduce the dependence on external resources and provide a more eficient resourcing model.
Recommendation 1.6: Continue the migration of the resourcing of the Major
Projects Change Programme to permanent HE staf to ensure the change is internalised and in reducing the dependency on external resources is delivered more eficiently.
Although good progress has been made, stafing is not yet at full complement and the shortage of key resources is a principal threat to achieving the efective and eficient delivery of HE's capital portfolio of work as well as the realisation of savings. A portfolio management technique that usually increases throughput and can ease concerns associated with resource constraints is the organisation wide central management of scarce resources. With this, the scarce resources are identified and allocated out to Directorates, assignments and outcomes that provide the greatest return. This prevents Directorates or initiatives holding onto scarce resources to only work on outcomes which although important to that area might ultimately be sub-optimal for the overall portfolio.
HE has considered managing scarce resources centrally but this is considered a short term solution when the staf pay budget is not yet fully utilised. It has decided instead to concentrate on recruiting additional resources and reallocating the staf budget to areas of greatest need. This is considered a more permanent solution to fixing the constraint rather than managing within it. If resource constraints still exist when the stafing budget is fully utilised and further
recruitment is not possible, HE should consider re-visiting centrally managing key resources so they can be shared and deployed on the most important and valuable outcomes.
Recommendation 1.7: Keep under review and be ready for centrally allocating key
resources in case resource constraints exist when the staf pay budget is fully utilised.
As HE continues to develop and it reaches its full complement of stafing and its operating model matures, it may need to review the ratio of resource expenditure to capital expenditure to ensure the correct level of management resourcing exists to deliver the portfolio expediently and eficiently. The Strategic Workforce Planning Tool that has recently been designed and is just being implemented will contribute to this. Unlike a commercial organisation that has greater latitude to move funding between diferent categories, HE in being government owned has less flexibility and will need to manage the constraint in collaboration with the DfT and ORR. There are instances where programmes have sometimes used Capex funding to develop eficiency savings when operational expenditure funds were not available, for example standardised gantry design on Smart Motorways or CRM sofware on the Lower Thames Crossing.
Recommendation 1.8: Keep the ideal ratio of operational expenditure to capital
expenditure under review to ensure the optimum level of operational resourcing is being used to manage and deliver the capital portfolio as eficiently and expediently as possible. Collaborate with the DfT and ORR to inform future RIS planning accordingly.
## Realising Target Savings
The high level eficiency saving target of £1.2bn is widely publicised and understood at a macro level within HE. The definition of how these savings will be targeted has been laid out in the Capital Eficiency Delivery Plan. The Eficiency and Inflation Monitoring Manual details how the savings will be measured.
HE's eficiency register and subsequent eficiency report categorises savings into eficiency themes. Portfolio Management and Programme Management are not explicit themes in their own right. There are two saving categories 'Scheme Combination' and 'Scheduling of Schemes' which are largely within the portfolio and programme management area and serve as useful proxies indicating the level of savings already being made in this area. For 16/17 they contributed 45% of the savings for that year. Reviewing the savings recorded in the other categories that could be attributed to Portfolio and Programme management suggests it is not unreasonable to conclude that approximately half of the eficiency savings currently being made by HE could easily be attributed to Portfolio and Programme management.
It is important to be aware that portfolio and programme management are management approaches and practices that exist alongside and overlap with other management approaches. A saving being targeted by portfolio and programme management could easily be executed via, say, the supply chain in the way particular schemes are procured. To some extent this is already reflected in the eficiency savings register where there is a marker to show the change driver as opposed to the category the eficiency has been recorded under. The change driver marker includes programme management but not portfolio management.
In order to further target savings from portfolio and programme management it might be worth considering a reporting mechanism that identifies, records and highlights the savings attributable to both portfolio and programme management. This would show the valuable savings already being made as well as act as a reminder to continue to focus on portfolio and programme management for future savings. This would support the old adage of 'what gets measured gets managed'. It might be that alongside reporting eficiency attributable to portfolio and programme management capability HE might also want to report eficiency against the other two capability review areas of procurement and asset management.
## Recommendation 1.9: Consider A Reporting Mechanism That Highlights Savings From Portfolio And Programme Management To Further Promote Eficiencies To Be Gained From The Use Of Portfolio And Programme Management.
If an additional reporting mechanism is developed, care needs to be exercised to avoid double counting the savings. Extending the example above where a saving prompted by the use of a portfolio management approach might be executed via, say, supply chain provides a situation where both areas may want to claim the saving or inadvertently both record the saving. Either way, savings can only be counted once when constructing the overall saving total so the saving will have to be apportioned appropriately or duplicates removed when creating overall totals.
## Examples Of Good Practice
Noted in Table 1 are examples of good practice in portfolio and programme management. As mentioned previously, these examples show that programme and especially portfolio management are organisation wide within HE.
## Table 1 - Examples Of Good Practice In Portfolio And Programme Management Consolidated Risks
The Smart Motorways monthly risk report includes consolidated risks that concern the entire breadth of the programme, not just an aggregated list of individual scheme risks.
## Aligning Investment And Renewals
Regional Investment Programme (RIP) boards have been formed with RIP structures and Repairs and Maintenance regional structures geographically aligned to provide 'joined up' interventions and savings. There are also instances where scheme business cases have explicitly considered repairs and maintenance opportunities.
## Resource Availability
Planning is currently being undertaken to manage availability of contractors and plant at end of RIS1 / start of RIS2. This is being done at an HE portfolio level and in coordination with other national infrastructure providers such as Network Rail, Hinckley Point and National Grid.
## Findings And Analysis Local Enterprise Partnerships ('Lep')
Engaging with LEPs and Local Authorities to deliver some jointly funded projects through their supply chains, e.g. M4 Junction 17 project managed by Wiltshire County Council and M27 Junction 9 managed by Hampshire County Council on behalf of Highways England and the LEP, relieves the pressure on critical resources in HE's portfolio.
## Combining Works
Project overheads and method related costs have been saved as well as disruption to road users minimised by consolidating schemes such as M1 Jct 23a-24 and M1 Jct 24-25.
## Accelerating Benefit Realisation
HE has already identified and brought forward schemes to enable the earlier realisation of benefits such as the A19 coast road, M1 Jct 45, and A52 Nottingham Jcts.
## Strategic Financial Planning
Establishing this function was a necessary enabler to improving longer term planning and management.
## Board Investment Committee
Provides a suitable platform for implementing portfolio management by setting the strategic direction and sanctioning resources to execute and deliver the portfolio.
## Eficiency Case Studies
The SMP is looking to provide an order book for central reservation barriers, which will allow the use of pre-cast rather than slip-formed barriers, at a significant cost saving. It is good programme and portfolio thinking to adopt such an asset standardisation approach. Once the saving is captured and entered onto the central eficiency register, there is a comprehensive governance mechanism involving the local PMO, Finance Business Partner and then the Commercial and Procurement team to ensure the saving is valid and if greater than £750k a case study is written up so other areas can see if they would benefit too.
## Corridor Approach
In order to enhance route performance, reduce disruption to road users of multiple road works along routes and to smooth demand on the supply chain, the capital portfolio has been reviewed and optimised to bring together schemes that can be linked and joined up under corridors.
## Corporate Workforce Capability
Two of the options being proposed by HE for building corporate workforce capability are recognised portfolio management techniques for dealing with the management of scarce resources in a portfolio, namely moving resources around programmes (refered to by HE as 'bounce') and adjusting the portfolio to undertake what can be achieved with the resources available (refered to by HE as 'blend').
## Findings And Analysis Sharing Good Practice
There is significant evidence of good practice in running programmes and increasing examples of good practice in portfolio management. The eficiency saving portal and associated case studies for descriptions of individual savings over £750k is the primary vehicle to capitalise and share the good practice more widely across HE. This works well for mainstream eficiency savings but does not have the level of detail or ability to easily search and obtain specific lessons learned in portfolio and programme management. As mentioned previously there are not any dedicated eficiency saving categories for portfolio and programme management and only programme management is covered under the change driver field. Additionally, a dedicated central database or repository for wider lessons learned in portfolio and programme management does not currently exist.
It is good practice for lessons learned to be shared with other in-flight programmes and portfolios as well as for informing future entities being conceived. This should apply organisation wide and include non-scheme projects and programmes and initiatives such as those being established and under way in HE2020. Ultimately this forms part of organisation wide knowledge management for HE.
Recommendation 1.10: Ensure lessons learned in portfolio and programme management are captured clearly and easily shared across the wider company portfolio.
## Findings And Analysis 2 Assessment Of Highways England'S Plans To Improve Capability By The End Of Road Period 1 (2020) Current Initiatives
'Highways England 2020 - Our Organisational Plan' ('HE2020') brings together all the elements of HE's plan for organisational change into one place. It describes the change initiatives being undertaken in each directorate as well as initiatives spanning the organisation.
Two of the cross-organisational initiatives have a direct impact on improving portfolio and programme capability. They are:
- Capital Portfolio Management - Capability Management
The governance and decision making improvements being made in the 'better decision making initiative' should also assist the development of portfolio and programme management capabilities as both are key to successful portfolio and programme management. Within one of HE's directorates, Major Projects, there is a Change Programme focused on improving programme and project management within the directorate. This was also the place of conception of CPM.
## Capital Portfolio Management
This HE2020 cross-organisational initiative is building and developing the capital portfolio management functionality which is a major contributor, but not the only as evidenced by the other change initiatives in HE2020, to the development of portfolio management in HE. The main focus is on facilitating Integrated Portfolio Management across the company and the first step of this is an Integrated Portfolio Management Ofice ('IPMO') change group. This is a virtual group that is chaired by Finance and Business Services and draws on a number of directorates in pursuit of optimising the delivery plan and associated processes and practices. This correctly recognises that portfolio management is an organisation wide management practice.
CPM has made significant progress since its formation as borne out by the recent independent review into the value for money and deliverability of the portfolio. As a function it is maturing and has set a vision of where it wants to get to and has outlined a blueprint. The detailed planning required to complete and deliver against the blueprint and realise the vision was in its early stages as this report was being drafed and so was not available for review.
Recommendation 2.1: Fully develop and share the detailed development plan for
CPM and IPMO to increase the certainty and confidence in building the blueprint and achieving the vision for increased portfolio management capability.
There is a strong commitment to achieving the vision and staf who are more than capable of leading the change but, due to other priorities, a detailed development plan has yet to be produced. This has resulted in a degree of uncertainty. As a minimum, a detailed plan would provide the baseline against which progress could be monitored. It would also confirm the resourcing required which in turn would assist CPM in stafing up with permanent HE personnel rather than continue the use of external resources/contractors.
Provided there is continued focus it is very possible for CPM and the wider integrated (enterprise) portfolio management approach to reach a significantly increased level of portfolio management capability by the end of RP1 but it is a steep development curve. However, it should definitely be able to reach maturity within RP2.
## Capability Management
This HE2020 cross-organisational initiative is developing the capability HE requires to deliver RIS1 and set the foundations for RIS2. Within the project, programme and portfolio management area, this initiative has focused on project and programme management first. The initiative has developed a project and programme manager capability maturity model, capability assessment tool and career pathway which are currently being implemented. The intention is to also include portfolio management in the near future. Until then this means that capability development in portfolio management due to this initiative will continue to lag behind project and programme management capability development for at least the immediate future.
As with the CPM initiative above, it is possible for this initiative to provide a significant level of portfolio management capability by the end of RP1 but it is a steep development curve. As some development activities necessarily have long gestation periods, it is more likely for it to achieve maturity within RP2.
For programme management capability development this HE2020 cross-organisation al initiative is much further advanced as indicated by HE's current capability in this area and has clear plans for continued capability development. Provided these plans are implemented as planned it is expected this initiative will deliver an increasing level of maturity in programme management capability within RP1.
## Recommendation 2.2: Increase The Focus On Portfolio Management Capability Development Within The He2020 Cross-Organisational Capability Development Initiative In Order To Support The Expedient Development Of Portfolio Management Capability Across He. Major Projects Change Programme
This was formed following the creation of HE to better manage Major Projects in the new environment where HE was given greater responsibility for delivering a suite of outcomes, not just outputs, across Major Projects and maintenance and renewals. It is concerned with improving programme and project management systems. This programme is well established and has made good progress designing and constructing the new systems and processes required to support the management and delivery of Major Projects. It is now rolling them out and migrating from using external PDP resources to internal permanent HE staf. Not only does this assist the internalisation of the change within HE, it is also a more eficient resourcing model. Change implementation and management (using the outputs of initiatives to change HE), as opposed to change control (controlling the scope and baseline plan of projects), is a new and emerging area for HE. Improving change management capability will become increasingly vital to HE to ensure the successful adoption and implementation of HE2020 as it progresses and its initiatives increasingly implement change. This programme appears suitably resourced and governed to succeed. It is expected to continue to develop programme management capability in Major Projects and reach a high level of maturity by the end of RP1.
## Findings And Analysis He2020 Organisational Plan
HE has chosen to run HE2020 as a series of distributed change initiatives with directorates taking the lead on designing and implementing the change in their areas. There is minimal central management. For example, there is no central change management budget for HE2020. Each directorate funds its own change initiative or contribution to cross-organi sational initiatives.
This mechanism has been chosen so the directorates can manage their own rate of change so not to adversely impact their delivery. When adopting such a change approach the questions that ofen arise are:
What is the priority when directorate delivery and HE2020 compete for resources? Could HE2020 proceed more quickly and eficiently if there were dedicated resources that could be deployed on change initiatives without adversely afecting day to day delivery?
It is important that HE keeps this under review, especially as it develops its portfolio management capability where management across a portfolio will become more easily facilitated. For example, centralised budgets make it easier to fund dedicated resources that can be deployed in diferent areas of the business as required to work on change initiatives, allowing directorate staf to retain their focus on delivery. As HE is still below its full staf complement this might be useful.
## Recommendation 2.3: Keep The Balance Between Distributed Vs Central Control Of He2020 Under Review, Especially As Capability In Portfolio And Programme Management Matures.
Given the interdependent nature of the directorates and cross-organisation initiatives it might also be worth considering slightly more, but still light touch, central governance and coordination to:
- facilitate and increase collaboration between directorates - provide consistency in approach with other programmes in HE and standardise outputs
to ease implementation
- coordinate schedules and sequence the implementation of change to prevent change
fatigue
- centrally manage scarce/key resources to optimise throughput and maintain
momentum
- consolidate risk management to reduce the overall budget for mitigation - capture and share lessons learned to continuously improve performance - increase the likelihood of timely benefit realisation - eliminate or reduce re-work from sub-optimisation.
Looking closer at risk management, the use of consolidated portfolio risk management techniques could prove useful to HE2020. Managing risks directorate by directorate in support of an overall organisational change plan requires each directorate to budget for mitigating the worst case scenario. Taking a portfolio view and consolidating the risk management with central facilitation can model the overall worst case scenario which will almost inevitably be less than aggregating directorate by directorate. This in turn reduces the overall mitigation budget making for a more eficient programme and reduced funding provision.
Recommendation 2.4: Given the interdependent nature of the change initiatives consider slightly more, but still light touch, central governance and coordination of HE2020 to optimise the implementation of change and realisation of benefits.
## Resource Planning/Constraint
HE is implementing a new strategic workforce planning tool. This provides resource predictions for schemes and in turn the portfolio. As the tool is embedded it will improve the estimation of resource requirements. This should in turn provide more advanced notice and confidence of resource demand profiles as well as earlier identification of critical resources. The gap between actual and planned headcount is narrowing quickly but resourcing remains a primary constraint to progress.
Recommendation 2.5: Continue to implement the strategic workforce planning tool and refine its calibration as required.
During interview, the senior managers consistently displayed clear insights into the priorities and wider purpose of their role (how it should fit in with the 'big picture') and were eager to improve the organisation. However, as the rate of progress developing capability is constrained by a lack of HE permanent resource it is reasonable to suppose that a model that focuses on this constraint and helps to make the necessary amount of resource available should prove attractive.
## Findings And Analysis 3 Establish An Improvement Trajectory For Highways England'S Portfolio And Programme Management Capability To The End Of Road Period 2
The additional responsibilities for HE of managing a larger and more complex capital portfolio requires development of a capability that HE has recognised and is rapidly developing. As previously described, progress in programme management capability is advancing well with portfolio management at an earlier stage in its development. The plans for continuing to develop programme management are well documented and provide a basis for measuring progress. As such, it provides greater confidence of achievement. The vision and blueprint for integrated portfolio management is understood and articulated at a high level within HE2020 but the detail is still being drafed and developed. Without detailed plans and monitoring points there is much less certainty as to the timings and maturity levels at key points but there appears to be no reason why significantly increased capability will not be achieved. There is certainly the motivation and understanding to succeed but no detailed plans as yet. This uncertainty is reflected in the trajectory in 'Figure 1 - Trajectory of improvement'. Figure 1 shows the relatively more mature current position of programme management and the single trajectory reflects the high degree of confidence in executing its robust improvement plans. The current position of portfolio management is less advanced than programme management but there is a strong determination and the potential to reach a similar level of maturity by the end of RP1, certainly during RP2. The range of trajectories for portfolio management reflects the necessary uncertainty due to the relatively lower current position, less detailed planning in place and steepness of the trajectory.
There is a relatively high degree of confidence in the predicted maturity of programme management by the end of RP1. The length of the timeline and the steepness of the portfolio management trajectory suggests it would be prudent for HE to undertake a further light-touch review into this capability area at the end of RP1 to ensure the continued focus of management, robustness of future plans and achievement of progress at that point in time. Whilst doing so, a brief re-confirmation of the programme management trajectory would be worthwhile. Programme management is expected to maintain a high level of maturity through RP2 and portfolio management could reach a similar level during the early stages of RP2 if not by the end of RP1. Due to the number of variables and uncertainties, it is not currently possible to predict the outcome to the end of RP2 with any greater precision.
Recommendation 3.1: Undertake a further light-touch portfolio management
capability review at the end of RP1 to re-confirm management focus, robustness of plans and progress to update the trajectory into RP2. Whilst doing so, re-confirm the programme management trajectory as well.
## Findings And Analysis 4 Determine The Scope For Eficiencies Resulting From These Improvements To Portfolio And Programme Management During Road Period 2
The linkage between improvements in portfolio and programme management capability to the eficiency savings that can be made in managing a portfolio of investment is complex as there are many variables to consider. It is not a precise science and we cannot, therefore, be certain of the outcome. Two main sources of information used to establish a link between capability improvement and eficiency saving are our experience in working with other clients in this area and publicly available case studies.
For the case studies, we have undertaken desk based secondary research of diferent organisations that have successfully implemented portfolio and programme management. They cite ranges for the quantitative eficiency improvement, reflecting the dificulty directly linking eficiency to portfolio and programme management. 'Appendix 3 - The benefits of implementing portfolio management' details the case studies.
Before translating the case study estimates and our experience into what is possible in HE we took into account that HE is a Government owned company and infrastructure provider, recently formed from an executive agency, and is governed diferently from a fully commercial organisation. It is more constrained in its funding options, decision making and has less freedom to structure the portfolio than a fully commercial organisation. Accordingly, the target savings level for HE is correspondingly lower than the savings being cited in the case studies and our own experience. Taking the case studies and our own experience into account we are of the view that the adoption of full portfolio and programme management capability by HE would make the execution of the portfolio approximately 10-15% more eficient than if HE did not have any capability in portfolio and programme management.
It is important to note that HE already has a significant capability in portfolio and programme management as shown in the improvement trajectories in the previous section. The eficiency register shows that approximately half the current rate of eficiency savings can be attributed to portfolio and programme management, as described in the 'Realising target savings' paragraph in section 1. Taking into account the total savings to date in RP1 and the estimated proportion of those attributable to portfolio and programme management, it is reasonable to conclude that a significant proportion, but not yet half, of the 10-15% savings potential from portfolio and programme management is already being achieved. Taking the forward position of the trajectories, the minimum expectation would be to achieve a significant further increase and reach a saving level in the region of approximately half the savings potential by the end of RP1 by executing the detailed plans already in place. The upper expectation to achieve the savings potential in full should be feasible in RP2 if HE continues to develop its capability by constructing detailed plans for portfolio management and considering the recommendations in this capability review report. This is summarised in 'Figure 2 - Potential savings'. If HE is constrained in being able to focus, as currently envisaged, on portfolio and programme management it is highly likely the savings potential would also be constrained and reduced accordingly.
Further details on the assumptions and estimating method behind 'Figure 2 - Potential Savings' can be found in 'Appendix 4 - Capturing current eficiencies and estimating future eficiencies'.
## Eficiencies To Date
Reviewing the eficiency savings achieved so far in this Road Period (15/16 and 16/17), shows:
- HE has exceeded its own targets - the absolute saving per year has increased - the saving as a percentage of the capital portfolio spend per year has also increased.
With only two years' worth of data points it is too soon to be confident of a trend but it is interesting to observe the coincidence of this with the rapid development to date of portfolio and programme management.
Such an analysis would be much easier with a specific savings report for portfolio and programme management to compare against (recommendation 1.9). Without this report it will be dificult to monitor and link capability development to improvements in eficiency. If an additional reporting mechanism is created it need not replace the existing reporting. Portfolio and programme management are not mutually exclusive to the existing reporting categories. It is possible to use at least two of the existing categories as proxies for portfolio and programme management. As mentioned previously, there needs to be an awareness that portfolio and programme management prompted savings might easily be recorded in other categories, for example Scheduling of Schemes, and care should be taken not to double count the savings. In other words, a significant proportion of the £1.2bn saving is already being delivered by portfolio and programme management as shown in 'Figure 2 - Potential savings' and borne out by analysing the eficiency register. However, there isn't currently a dedicated report showing it.
## Findings And Analysis Accelerating The Savings
Recommendation 2.3 stresses the importance of keeping the balance between distributed vs central control of HE2020 under review, especially as the capability in portfolio and programme management matures. This is likely to become increasingly important to the implementation of change and in turn the unlocking of savings. HE2020 is developing the very capability that can improve the way that both HE and HE2020 can be structured and managed to further develop capability and realise savings.
Recommendation 4.1: Ensure the business case and plans for HE2020 are kept
under constant review for opportunities to accelerate HE2020.
## Conclusion
HE is striking a conscious balance between focusing on scheme delivery and building capability in order to achieve the target savings. As the Road Period progresses the savings target increases in both absolute and percentage terms so the contribution by portfolio and programme management capability will become increasingly important. It is paramount HE continues its development in this area. Fortunately, improving portfolio and programme management capability will also make it easier to run HE2020 which in turn will further increase capability as well as deliver the other changes also contributing to the eficiency being targeted. Whilst HE is resource constrained it is unlikely that HE2020 could proceed any faster without afecting delivery. However, as resourcing increases and capability develops it might be possible to increase the pace of further capability development. This will need to be kept under review as will investing additional short term funds into the plan in order to unlock savings sooner. The value of savings being targeted means only a small increase in cost to achieve the return is still a very good investment. Above all, detailed portfolio management plans need developing and progress monitoring to assure that the required trajectories being predicted are achieved.
Recommendation 4.2: Ensure the relevant initiatives within HE2020 which facilitate
the further development of portfolio and programme management capability development remain suitably resourced and are not delayed.

## Appendices Appendix 1 - Job Descriptions And Roles Analysis
We examined the following role descriptions within the Major Project Directorate ('MPD') to assess the extent to which the roles were involved in portfolio management at a wider level in HE
| | Role | Reporting to |
|-------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------|----------------------------------------|
| | Programme Director, National | Executive Director, Major Projects and |
| Infrastructure Group | Capital Portfolio Management | |
| Project Sponsor (Chair) (Regional Sponsor | Programme Director | |
| SMP) | | |
| Capital Portfolio Director (Head of CPM) | Executive Director, Major Projects and | |
| Capital Portfolio Management | | |
## Programme Director ('Pd')
This role has some visibility of and engagement with wider organisational portfolio concerns, reporting directly to the Executive Director, Major Projects and Capital Portfolio Management. The PD is expected to engage with the Portfolio Ofice Directors in Major Projects and Operations. While the role's main purpose is leadership of the MPD and focused on the internal efectiveness of the directorate, there is recognition for the need to ensure integration with other HE directorates, to ensure adequate communications with wider stakeholders, and to liaise with the HS2 and Heathrow expansion projects. The establishment of a National Infrastructure Group within MPD appears to be the mechanism for managing these external interfaces with other major infrastructure providers. The role mandates identifying scheme options for the next Road Investment Strategy period (RIS2) based upon the route strategies and studies 'carried out elsewhere in Highways England's business'. This indicates that the directorate's work will take account of wider organisational portfolio priorities.
This evidence indicates appreciation of the need to take a wider view of resourcing as well as internal and external portfolio dependencies. However, the PD role description largely focuses on leadership within the MPD.
## Appendices Project Sponsor (Chair) (Regional Sponsor Smp)
This role initiates and oversees the delivery of a portfolio of projects (within the MPD), and engages with the Investment Decision Committee and CPM, as well as maintaining strong relationships with external stakeholders. It oversees the development business cases of projects that reflect the aims and objectives of the RIS and fit with longer-term HE strategy. The role is largely focused on overseeing projects within the MPD portfolio.
## Capital Portfolio Director (Head Of Cpm)
There is currently only an outline role description available but the HE2020 cross-organi sational initiative for CPM describes the future direction of CPM which the Capital Portfolio Director leads. The CPM initiative is central to establishing Integrated Portfolio Management across the wider HE and working with other Directorates to do so.
## Conclusions
The Programme Director and Project Sponsor roles within MPD are using portfolio management approaches within MPD and, to a lesser extent, across the wider HE portfolio. The Capital Portfolio Director (Head of CPM) is necessarily using portfolio management approaches and, further still, encouraging them across the wider HE.
## Appendices Appendix 2 - He'S Utilisation Of Programme Types
Programmes, in all instances, are a collection of projects and business as usual work initiatives that have a central, visionary, strategically-driven objective. As a consequence they frequently have to accommodate the achievement of persistent cultural and behavioural change. As the journey to the end state cannot be clearly defined and planned in the early stages, programmes are essentially complex and risky because of high levels of uncertainty. Equally, their structures have to be able to accommodate flexibility as changes in direction or route to the vision are likely to occur over time. They also typically have extended timescales (usually beyond eighteen months) as a result of the scale of work that they are required to undertake. This in itself represents another source of complexity and management challenge because, naturally, over extended timescales the external (supply, demand and political) environments also change. Beyond these common characteristics there are three distinctly diferent types of programme which have diferent management demands. These three types are styled as 'embedded', 'isolate' (sometimes known as 'green field') and 'portfolio'. HE is using each type in its organisation demonstrating a significant level of maturity in programme management. A brief description of each is ofered below.
## Embedded Type Programme (Business Change Programme)
Description: The primary driver of this type of programme is the recognition of the need for wholesale change within the organisation to bring about a new operational paradigm. This is normally as a response to strategic developments and the adoption of a new vision for the organisation. Understanding the customer and business value propositions and mapping these to the change from current to future state is critical to successful management.
Hallmarks: The unique characteristics can include high levels of complexity (particularly organisational/political complexity). Programme critical interfaces (PCIs), where the outputs or outcomes of one project combine with the outputs or outcomes of others to provide key points of value to the overall programme and require programme level management.
Direction of management attention: As these programmes are heavily benefits dependent, management must focus sharply on the achievement and embedding of the behavioural change that will give rise to additional value. This means the development of clear and supportable benefits positions against which management can regulate and set direction of the constituent works (organising appropriate tranches of projects between periods of consolidation) and gain the support of the 'change agents'. Stakeholder engagement is the other key area of focus, as such programmes will almost inevitably cross organisational boundaries. Hence boundary management should feature prominently in the manager's skill set.
HE Example: Within HE the Major Projects change programme is an example of this type of programme. Aimed, as it is, at bringing about an operating model that encompasses new ways to project manage the delivery of schemes.
## Isolate Type Programme (Sometimes Called 'Green Field' Type Programmes)
Description: This type of programme, as the title suggests, is driven by the need to master a new strategic capability that is not part of the overall organisation's current skills or behaviour set. Establishing a new strategic business unit for an established business might represent such a type of programme.
Hallmarks: Limited 'political impact' across organisational boundaries - although there
will have to be operational interfaces, 'isolate' programmes do not usually represent a political threat to existing areas of the business. New skills, new additional assets or new challenges that can best be addressed or approached outside.
Direction of management attention: Identifying, developing and optimising new skills, capabilities and processes are the route, for these programmes, to the attainment of value. Leaving a legacy of useable 'lessons learned' and technology/processes that can be replicated cheaply and efectively anywhere else that the organisation chooses to is also important.
HE Example: Within HE the Complex Infrastructure Programme is an example of a green field type programme. Acquiring transferable skills and processes in new areas (such as complex stakeholder engagement) is fundamental to this programme's success.
## Portfolio Type Programme
Description: The portfolio type programme has a clear strategic objective which is unlikely to alter. This means that the work that will deliver the objective can be readily identified and planned. Due to the volume of work (much of which is similar in nature), its eficient management is one of the primary challenges in this type of programme. Consequently it is closer in management style to a portfolio than a programme; however it is legitimately a programme because of its strategic and unitary objective.
Hallmarks: The unique characteristics of such a programme are a clear and stable objective.
Large volumes of similar work. A constrained resource-pool capable of delivering the work. Relatively low contention amongst the client, supplier and internal boundaries as to the necessity or direction of this type of programme.
Direction of management attention: The challenge is essentially one of delivering significant volumes of work so the focus of management attention should be on achieving and spreading cost eficient approaches; both in material and process terms.
HE Example: The Smart Motorways Programme is a perfect example of the portfolio type of programme.
## Appendices Appendix 3 - The Benefits Of Implementing Portfolio Management
The examples cited below are taken from a desk study of diferent organisations who have implemented enterprise portfolio management. They each describe a positive impact on their organisation's overall performance. All describe qualitative improvements including:
- better decision making
- greater collaboration across their organisation - better market competitiveness
- increased ability to react to market changes - greater clarity of purpose.
Much of these qualitative improvements can already be seen in HE too, such as, but not limited to, the HE2020 cross-organisational initiative 'better decision making' or obtaining greater market competitiveness through enterprise wide procurement 'Routes to market' or providing greater clarity of purpose with the publication and use of rich pictures in HE2020. Further details including quantitative estimates of eficiencies are described below.
## Orr Report1 Proposed How Portfolio Management Could Enable Savings Of 6 - 18%
Recommendations in this report included 'mechanisms to better manage the portfolio of programmes and the interactions between programmes'. Citing benefits of a more integrated approach, the report used the example of Thameslink, a programme introducing new operational concepts and technology, but lacking an efective strategy for systems integration to deliver an efective transport service.
The key to success has been the development of a clear 'route map to success' and a multi-discipline, multi-stakeholder Systems Integrator - efectively an enterprise-wide portfolio level management and governance mechanism for technical design– to ensure that the system design reliably delivers the expected benefits. This has delivered significant benefits that we would expect to be features of enterprise portfolio management, such as:
- modelling and communicating to stakeholders how the organisation will operate - identifying and removing non-value adding requirements
The report then highlights further potential for savings by:
- reduced over-engineering of systems - better selection of more efective approaches, leading to faster programme
implementation during the expensive later phases, reducing overheads and delivery staf costs; and
- increased focus on delivering transport outcomes.
Another area examined was supply chain management - optimising sustainable value delivered to customers against suppliers' costs. They recommended:
- development of a clear and consistent supply chain strategy - deployment of appropriate contracting frameworks - visibility of future demand to allow forward planning and identification of problems/
opportunities
- utilising strategic partnerships along the supply chain
- providing incentives to stimulate continuous improvement in outputs through
long-term strategic alliances.
One train manufacturer estimated that there are potential savings of 20% in the cost of manufacturing trains through a combination of:
- a smoother demand profile - running procurement processes better and - more standardisation of vehicles.
## " …The Industry Needs To Develop Mechanisms To Better Manage The Portfolio Of Programmes And The Interactions Between Programmes " Orr A Study2 By The Crown Estate Claims Over 31% Savings From Enterprise-Wide Management Of Procurement
An in-depth study of ofshore wind costs cited enterprise procurement management as a driver of savings through:
- consolidating procurement contracts and so reducing interfaces, contingencies and
cost overruns
- improving interface management - sharing of best practices and facilities - development of joint intellectual property among the same tier of the supply chain - economies of scale leading to productivity improvements by standardising processes
and components and by increasing volume throughput and run lengths
- moving away from lump sum contracts, and introducing incentive mechanisms.
Using a Supply Chain Eficiency model, they reported that supply chain savings (and attendant benefits to the cost of capital) contributed significant improvement to the bottom line. Although the savings were realised and categorised under procurement, the enterprise wide approach was utilising portfolio management concepts. This shows that portfolio management co-exists with and overlaps other functions and management principles within an organisation.
These supply chain levers have the potential to reduce capital and operating
costs and / or risks

## " Appendices A Number Of Other Reports Describe The Scope For Savings By Adopting Portfolio Management. Mckinsey Claims3 Savings Of 15% To 30%
The study examined a range of small to medium sized engineering projects (worth up to $50 million) in the chemical sector. The portfolio management disciplines contributing to this financial improvement were:
- alignment of capital strategy allocation with corporate strategy - optimising portfolios for cost, value and risk
- streamlining front-end concept and design - implementing lean project governance and stage-gate processes.
## Pwcreports4 25% Revenue Increases, With Project Roi Improved By Up To 28%
The report claims that companies that excel at portfolio management typically complete projects more eficiently in terms of cost and time, and that efective portfolio management can enable companies to achieve improved financial results. They identify the necessary components as:
- strong governance and accountability at appropriate levels of the business to ensure
strategic alignment, make efective decisions and escalate issues
- regular reviews of the portfolio performance monitoring and benefits realisation
processes to ensure that proactive action can be taken to remedy underperformance
- use of EPfM ofices to support and assure good portfolio management practices.
## Ernst & Young Cites5 30-40% Improvement In Project Success
The case study, of public sector organisations, describes how portfolio management helps ensure benefits achievement and improved clarity of decision-making which leads to improvement in return on investment. It describes how corporate planning and the business operating model must be linked to enterprise portfolio planning, management and delivery in order to achieve full organisational benefits.
## Appendices Kpmg Reports6 How Project Savings Can Be Leveraged Across The Enterprise
KPMG took the example of a money-saving innovation - ofsite modular construction - produced relatively modest savings at project level by reducing construction times. However, when adopted at the enterprise portfolio level, significantly larger savings were realised, more than merely aggregating savings over several construction projects. The enterprise portfolio perspective allowed companies to introduce even greater savings through:
- adoption of standardised components,
- lower procurement cost of components arising from economies of scale, and - reduction in procurement and design costs.
## Appendices Appendix 4 - Capturing Current Eficiencies And Estimating Future Eficiencies Current Eficiencies
The principal source of information for understanding the current savings attributable to portfolio and programme management is the eficiency register. Currently there is no dedicated eficiency category for portfolio and programme management, so proxies in the register have been used to estimate the current level of saving. The main proxies are 'Scheme combination' and 'Scheduling of schemes' - both portfolio management techniques. Until a dedicated saving category for portfolio and programme management is available it is not possible to be more precise than to observe that approximately half of the current eficiency savings achieved in 16/17 can be attributed to portfolio and programme management.
## Future Eficiencies
The level of savings possible from HE having a fully mature portfolio and programme management capability compared with not having such a capability is necessarily articulated as a range (10-15%) to represent the inherent uncertainty in both estimating the future outcome and in being able to record and measure it. Linking portfolio and programme management capability to eficiency is not a direct relationship. There are a great number of variables and intermediate steps that all carry a degree of uncertainty and make the overall relationship complex.
To illustrate this, the Major Projects Change Programme is implementing at least eight new processes, all of which are expected to contribute to the more eficient delivery of the portfolio. However, determining exactly how much each process will contribute is dificult to predict. Each process will create a number of changes that in turn will lead to eficiencies. To undertake this type of bottom up estimate would be a massive task with a high degree of uncertainty generated by aggregating each individual uncertainty. Instead, a top down estimating approach has been used in this report where the overall eficiency saving achieved in similar situations elsewhere, noting HE is governed diferently from a fully commercial company, is used to derive the 10-15% potential saving level. With this in mind it is not possible to be more precise than to estimate that:
- taking into account the total savings to date in RP1 and the estimated proportion
of those attributable to portfolio and programme management, it is reasonable to conclude that a significant proportion, but not yet half, of the 10-15% savings potential from portfolio and programme management is already being achieved
- the current plans in place to the end of RP1 are likely to achieve a further significant
increase and reach a level of saving in the region of approximately half the 10-15% savings potential by the end of RP1
- the remaining proportion (approximately half, but this will depend on the outcome of
RP1) of the 10-15% potential should be achievable in RP2 provided the future detailed plans are developed and implemented by HE.
This is summarised pictorially in 'Figure 2 - Potential savings' which is indicative and cannot be scaled.
Examples of the types of changes that are expected to further increase capability and contribute to the further savings predicted during Road Period 1 are:
- increased staf retention from rolling out Project and Programme career paths - increased sharing of good practice in portfolio and programme management practices - increased internalisation of capability by continuing to migrate to permanent HE staf.
Examples of products being delivered that should increase capability are:
- risk management tools
- scheduling tools - strategic workforce planning tool - CRM system - information collaboration tool - project and programme management change management system - cost management system.
For Road Period 2, examples of the possible changes that might contribute to the remaining savings are much harder to define. Developing and implementing the detailed plans for portfolio management mean the principles could manifest themselves in a number of diferent ways for HE. Some possibilities are identified below; however, these cannot be fully determined until the outcomes from the changes implemented in RP1 are established.
HE may find that a combination of some of these concepts and continuing or furthering other changes from RP1 will be more appropriate at the time.
- corporate identification, prioritisation and allocation of scarce resources to increase
throughput and momentum
- consolidated risk management across all portfolios to reduce the risk profile and
mitigation budget
- enhanced reporting of savings from portfolio management in order to target further
savings
- detailed role profiles and career path for portfolio management, reducing staf turnover
and increasing productivity
- a possible extension or successor to HE2020, perhaps HE2025 - central budgets and resources for implementing change - increased sharing of good practice in portfolio management.

Glossary
## Glossary
Aggregated approaches Is the collecting together of all information, knowledge and views from the level below in order to try and establish a 'comprehensive' view of the current position and/or options. For example, understanding the number and severity of all the risks faced by all the projects within the portfolio or programme would represent an example of an aggregating approach. Whilst comprehensive, aggregation doesn't attempt to identify or highlight the key portfolio wide risks or underlying causes driving similar individual risks.
Assurance Is the proactive planning and management of activities aimed at safeguarding, as far as is reasonably practicable, investment funds to reduce risk.
CAPEX (capital expenditure)
Funds designated for the acquisition or development of permanent assets. These will reflect through into HE's balance sheet. See also 'Opex' and 'Totex'.
Consolidated approaches In contrast to aggregation, consolidation focuses on the underlying drivers, key trends and characteristics of the overall portfolio which are then best managed centrally for the overall benefit of the portfolio. For example, recognising from many diferent projects there are common trends across the portfolio provides the opportunity to manage the trend more eficiently at a central portfolio level. Doing so might lead to sub optimisation in some projects but this is more than compensated for by the greater benefit overall. By contrast, an aggregated approach is optimised at the scheme level which invariably is less eficient than optimising at the portfolio level. For example, it is more efective to plan and allocate critical resources centrally than to have separate initiatives continually competing for the same resource. Likewise for risk management, a consolidated view and approach looks at portfolio wide risks and underlying issues which it is more eficient to manage centrally. It complements individual risk management being undertaken at the scheme/project level.
Capital Portfolio Management ('CPM')
Within HE, CPM is a department that is responsible for optimising the eficiency and value for money of the capital portfolio. It is a cornerstone in adopting portfolio management and is encouraging the wider use of portfolio management across HE by establishing an Integrated Portfolio Management approach.
Customer Relationship Management ('CRM')
Within HE, CRM is the mechanism that assists the engagement with large numbers of stakeholders and interested parties typically found on high profile or complex schemes.
Department for Transport ('DfT')
The DfT is the government department that sets the strategic goals for the strategic road network, provides the funding and oversees, via the ORR Highways Monitor, HE's delivery of road investment.
Designated Funds A series of ring fenced funds designated to Highways England to address a range of issues beyond the traditional focus of road investment. These funds allow for actions beyond business as usual. They help Highways England to invest in retrofitting measures to improve the existing road network and maximise opportunities to deliver additional improvements as part of new road schemes. They focus on the environment, cycling, safety and integration, air quality, innovation, growth and housing.
## Glossary
Enterprise portfolio management ('EPfM')
Portfolio management carried out at the highest level within an organisation and encompasses the totality of an organisation's investment (Opex and Capex) to achieve its strategic objectives. The level of governance and management associated with enterprise portfolio management can vary depending on the organisation and environment. It can range from light touch and virtual to highly centralised and formal as required. Please also see 'Portfolio Management'.
Governance In general this is the organisation's authority/decision making model. It includes definitions of roles, supporting processes, procedures and systems. It is more than just assurance.
Highways Monitor Highways Monitor, part of the ORR, monitors and reports to the Secretary of State for Transport on Highways England's performance.
OPEX (operational expenditure)
Funds designated for undertaking normal ongoing day to day business operations. These are reflected in an organisation's profit and loss account. See also 'Capex' and 'Totex'.
Portfolio A grouping of projects brought together under a single entity for management convenience. Typically this is because of resource commonality, subject/technical skills commonality or geographic or operational reasons. In essence portfolios are about maximising the organisational impacts when operating in a constrained environment.
Portfolio Management Portfolio management manages an organisation's investment in changes (programmes, projects and change activities) required to achieve its strategic objectives. Its goal is to optimise the throughput of change in the organisation in pursuance of the organisation's strategic aims and values. A top-level strategy for the portfolio is developed to indicate organisational business targets, spending priorities and risk appetite. This in turn gives direction to lower level delivery planning, which includes the balance of cost, benefit and risk to achieve optimal outcomes. This involves identifying necessary trade-ofs between otherwise unrelated work initiatives, rescheduling or adjusting constrained resource allocations within the portfolio. All lower level decisions about resourcing and scheduling and scheme selection are subordinated to achieving optimal enterprise portfolio outcomes.
For this to work efectively there is a need for a clear line of sight between strategic decisions and lower level decision making. Options are developed and then decisions overseen through appropriate layers of governance bodies and new enterprise portfolio roles including enterprise design authority, portfolio director, and portfolio ofice management. Jointly, with top-level sponsorship, they ensure that the portfolio of change
- represents an efective allocation of resources (maximising value, minimising low-value
work)
- reflects the risk appetite and the cost and other constraints of the organisation - realises the desired organisational benefits - is delivered efectively and cost-eficiently.
Please also see 'Enterprise Portfolio Management'.
## Glossary
Portfolio strategy This describes the corporately determined balance of the three factors of 'benefits maximisation', 'resource optimisation' and 'risk minimisation' in pursuit of current corporate strategy.
Programme A grouping of projects and 'business as usual' initiatives brought together under a single entity in pursuit of an organisation's strategic objectives. They difer from portfolios in several ways two of the most significant of which are; all constituent pieces of work must be contributing towards the same strategic goal and each piece of work must have value from the strategic vision perspective.
Further details of diferent programme types are provided in 'Appendix 2 - HE's utilisation of programme types'.
Programme Management The eficient and coordinated management of programmes (projects and change activities) to achieve beneficial change. See also 'Programme'.
## Project A Discrete And Temporary Piece Of Work Focused On The Delivery Of A Defined Set Of Outputs.
Sub-optimisation Describes the deliberate reduction of one or more facets of an initiative's (or combination of initiatives) business case in favour of increasing another facet because it fits the business objectives rather than the initiative/s. For example, deciding to sacrifice some of the utility of a bespoke product in order to minimise cost by using a standardised design; would represent the sub-optimisation of functionality to achieve greater overall cost saving.
Throughput A key area of portfolio management focus where the objective is to achieve the highest volume of output within the constraints imposed by the portfolio strategy.
TOTEX (total expenditure) / Whole Life Cost This is a compound word describing the gross combined total of both CAPEX and OPEX. It is a useful concept because it allows the balancing of the two at an optimum level. It helps understand if it is beneficial to spend more capital funds up front in order to reduce operating funds in the future. It is particularly useful when examining the relative merit of two similar options as it provides a single overall figure for comparison.

## Motions, Amendments, Decisions And Conditions Who Makes Planning Decisions?
- Local Planning Authority: delegated or
committee
- Secretary of State (call-ins) - Appeals - the Planning Inspectorate - Government - national infrastructure projects - Greater London Authority - Development Corporations - And there is the role of the courts
## Planning Decisions - The Law 1990 And 2004 Acts
The LPA "may grant planning permission, either
unconditionally or subject to such conditions as
they think fit, or they may refuse planning
permission".
They "shall have regard to the provisions of the development plan, so far as material to the application, and to any other material considerations".
## Town And Country Planning Act 1990, Section 70 Decisions
- must be ones Committee is empowered to take.
- requirement to give reasons for refusal (for applicant's benefit if appealing)
- by a majority of those present - possible Chair's casting vote dependent on Council's Constitution.
## Motions
- Reports from Planning Officers will have
recommendations.
- Committee member 'proposes' a motion
(normally officer's recommendation). - Needs to be seconded (by another member or the meeting)
## Amendments (1)
- After a motion has been seconded then an
amendment can be moved. - Basically proposes a change to a motion
- Sometimes an amendment can be accepted by
the proposer (friendly/ altered) - If amendment is seconded then it is debated ahead of the motion.
## Amendments (2)
- Must be relevant to the original motion.
- Voted upon one at a time, in order they are
proposed.
- If lost then debate on original motion
continues.
- If carried then the original motion becomes
the substantive motion.
## Amendments (3) Amendments Can:
- Leave out words - Leave out words and insert others - Refer any motion, or issue or part of an issue to - an appropriate body (If this is moved then no other
amendment can be moved).
## Amendments Cannot:
- Amount to a direct negative of a motion or nullify
the motion.
## Decision-Making: Key Points For Committee
- the policies in the development plan - other relevant policy considerations - the results of technical consultation - all other views - if material - on its own merits, and in its particular context - come to a view in the light of officer assessment and
recommendation, and the debate
## Overturns/Different Decisions
•
perfectly acceptable for Councillors come to a decision different to the recommendation
- provided that it can be justified on planning
grounds, based on the Plan and other material
considerations
•
Committee must give justified planning reasons for
decision - it can't be left to officers to work out later
•
but usually the officers are clear from the debate what the Committee's concerns are, and can put the final decision notice together in the appropriate language
## Refusing Permission (1)
- are the reasons **lawful** (which includes being
generally "reasonable")?
- could you mount a credible case on appeal? Is
there a sufficient **"evidential basis"** for the
decision?
- would anyone reading the decision - especially the
applicant - readily understand why permission has
been refused?
## Refusing Permission (2)
- are you able to describe the **harm** that would
result if the development went ahead? And why conditions would not be sufficient to mitigate that harm?
- is it clear what the **policy support** is for the
decision?
- have all the other material considerations
been given the appropriate weight?
## Approvals
- A planning authority can grant permission
unconditionally, or 'subject to such conditions as
they see fit' (and/or a S106 obligation)
- NPPF - use of conditions where can make an
otherwise unacceptable development, acceptable
- Courts have determined that certain legal principles
- Planning purposes only - Not be unreasonable/ ultra vires
## Planning Conditions
•NPPF: a condition must satisfy 6 tests:
- necessary, - relevant to planning - relevant to the development permitted - enforceable
- precise; and - reasonable in all other respects
- Planning Policy Guidance sets out these tests and key considerations - Circular 11/95 - now rescinded (accept for the
model conditions annex)
## Planning Conditions
- 'Grampian' (type) conditions:
- delayed unless a particular event has
occurred
- All planning permissions are subject to time
limits (3 years) for implementation, beyond
which they lapse
- Approval of details (especially precommencement ones) - consultation on a
default approval if not dealt with
## Reasons For Conditions
- the LPA must "state clearly and precisely their full reasons
for each condition imposed, specifying all policies and
proposals in the development plan which are relevant to the
decision".
- must be as specific as possible - what does "to safeguard
the interests of residential amenity" or "to enable the local
planning authority to control the development" actually
mean?
- there is a right of appeal against conditions - so explain and
justify
## S106 Planning Obligations
•
site-specific to that development
•
used where it is not possible to use conditions
•
often in mitigation of an impact, or to support provision of infrastructure or affordable housing
•
tests: must be necessary, directly relevant,
reasonable, fair and related in scale/kind to the development (statutory and policy)
•
the use of planning obligations must be governed by the fundamental principle that planning permission may not be bought or sold

## Freedom Of Information Act 2000 Request Questions Relating To Money Laundering Offences Within The Last Three Years. Request
1. In each of the last 3 years how many prosecutions has the CPS made for any money
laundering offences.
2. In each of the last 3 years how many money laundering investigations have been undertaken
by the CPS where the proceeds of crime either were some form of cryptocurrency or had
otherwise been converted into some form of cryptocurrency.
3. In each of the last 3 years what is the total value of money and/or assets which have been
confiscated as proceeds of crime following convictions pursued by the CPS. Subsequently you clarified on 25 April 2019 the following: Question 3 pertains to prosecutions only in relation to money laundering offences under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002.
4. In each of the last 3 years has the CPS been involved in the seizure / confiscation of any
cryptocurrency as the proceeds of crime and, if so, what was the total value of the overall sum of cryptocurrency confiscated (either expressed as £GBP or, if easier, in total units of
cryptocurrency, for example 1,000 bitcoins).
## Response
- The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) hold a better source of statistics, therefore we suggest that you
refer this element of your request to them. Please see MoJ contact details below.
data.access@justice.gov.uk
##
- This is not a matter for the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) as we do not undertake
investigations. Please direct your request to the relevant Law Enforcement Agencies/Forces who do undertake investigations.
- Please see response to question one.
Floor 8, 102 Petty France, London SW1H 9AJ
United Kingdom
- The CPS does not hold a central record of the information requested as it is not possible to
breakdown the overall annual values confiscated by those that relate to cryptocurrency. In order to ascertain this information for the last three years a manual review of case files would
need to be undertaken.
Section 12(1) of the FOI Act means public authorities are not obliged to comply with a request for information if it estimates the cost of complying would exceed the appropriate limit. The appropriate limit for central government it is set at £600. This represents the estimated cost of one person spending 3.5 working days determining whether the department holds the information, and locating, retrieving and extracting the information. We believe that the cost of reviewing 3225 cases would exceed the appropriate limit.
Consequently, we are not obliged to comply with your request. Under Section of the FOI Act we have an obligation to advise what, if any, information may assist you with your request. We do hold some data on the number of offences in which a prosecution commenced at magistrates' courts for the money laundering offences created by the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (sections 327 to 333), however in order to provide you with the further information requested i.e. whether there was a prosecution or the total value of money and/or assets which have been confiscated as proceeds of crime following convictions pursued by the CPS, this is likely to trigger Section 12(1) as outlined above.

## Background
Framlingham Castle is located in the market town of Framlingham in Suffolk. It was built by Roger Bigod, earl of Norfolk after the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. At this time the Normans sought to assert their control over the Anglo-Saxons, and Framlingham was probably fortified with a castle to intimidate the local population. Initially, the castle was built out of wood, with the building work taking place sometime between 1066 and 1107. Stone buildings were constructed later at the castle after 1150.Paragraph format information In 1157, Framlingham castle was confiscated from the powerful Bigod family by King Henry II. The castle remained in his possession until 1165 when Hugh Bigod, a descendent of Roger Bigod, paid a huge sum of money to regain the castle.
In order to understand why Henry II seized Framlingham castle, we first need to recognise how castles were used during the reign of Henry II's uncle, King Stephen. During the reign of King Stephen, England was torn apart by a long and gruelling civil war. Barons rebelled against the king and used castles as their headquarters, ruling the surrounding villages as if they were kings themselves. This meant that many barons got used to running things their own way. When Henry II succeeded Stephen to the throne, he felt that the barons were far too powerful and unwilling to submit to his authority. Therefore Henry II took over their castles. The king dared them to oppose him. The barons knew that if they attempted to resist, Henry would raise an army and take their castles by force. So, the barons backed down and then tried to buy their castles back at a later date. This happened to Hugh Bigod, who lost Framlingham Castle to the king in 1157, and bought it back eight years later in 1165. Bigod later rebelled against Henry II in 1173. As punishment, he was exiled and in 1175, Henry II ordered Hugh Bigod's castle at Framlingham to be dismantled by an expert team of masons and carpenters, which is revealed in our first document below. When the Bigod family regained possession of their castle in 1189 under King Richard I, they had to rebuild it. The stone curtain wall that survives today was the result of this reconstruction. It is thought that the work was completed by 1213, as Roger Bigod II entertained King John at Framlingham castle that year. Roger Bigod II was one of the leading barons who forced King John to grant Magna Carta. During the civil war which followed, King John successfully besieged and took control of Framlingham castle, but it was returned to the Bigod family when the civil war ended. Framlingham remained in the hands of the Bigod family until the fourteenth century when it passed to the Brotherton family, who were cousins of the king. The Howard family inherited the castle in 1483 and set to work on a large-scale refurbishment project. By the end of the sixteenth century the castle had fallen into ruin.
## Teacher'S Notes
The introduction has outlined some of the key events in the history of Framlingham castle, but the medieval documents held at The National Archives can reveal much more about the appearance of the castle, the people who lived and worked there, and the various functions it performed. Therefore, based on these documents, the key enquiry question for students to discover is: what was the primary function of Framlingham Castle in the 'Middle Ages'? It is important that students read each document, and decide if it supports the case for one of the following functions:
-
military
-
local government
-
leisure
-
other
For example, 'source 1 supports the case that the primary function of Framlingham is… because it says that…' The questions provided with each source, therefore act as prompts for the overarching question: What was the primary function of Framlingham Castle in the 'Middle Ages'? The records used cover a range of material including royal grants, extracts from pipe rolls and the Calendar of Patent Rolls, royal orders, licences and pardons. We hope that these documents will offer students a chance to develop their powers of evaluation and analysis. All sources have been provided with a transcript and as the language may prove challenging, we have also provided a simplified version with more difficult words defined within the text. Each source is captioned and dated to provide a sense of what the document is about. Alternatively, teachers may wish to use the sources to develop their own lesson in a different way or combine with other sources. All the documents included in this lesson relate to Framlingham Castle which features in the specification for 'OCR History GCSE module: Castles Form and Function c1000-1750 as specified site' in conjunction with English Heritage. Framlingham Castle is the first named site for OCR in 2018.

## Tasks Source 1: Question
Castles were an important part of the medieval world, but represented different things to different people. Do you think this order would have changed Alnoth's opinion of castles?
Who ordered the repair and provisioning of Framlingham castle? Who was responsible for carrying out the order? Where did the money come from? And who ultimately paid for the work?
Where was the original 'writing' of Thomas, Earl of Norfolk, produced? Does this tell us anything about the role of Framlingham Castle in Medieval England? Can you find the word 'Framelyngham' in the original document?
What does this tell us about the function of Framlingham Castle in the Middle Ages?
Hunting was big part of medieval life for rich lords and ladies. They would have based themselves at their castle, and gone hunting in nearby parks. What does the evidence presented in the source reveal about the function of castles in Medieval England?
What does the existence of a cottage and a messuage inside the walls of Framlingham Castle suggest about how the castle would have looked like? Does it change your perception of what it would have been like to live in the castle? What does the document reveal about the function of Framlingham Castle in Medieval England?
Do you think it reveals anything about the function of Framlingham Castle in Medieval England? If not, do you think the record is valuable for any other reason? If you were writing a history of Framlingham castle, how might you use this source? If this document didn't exist, would it really matter for our understanding of Framlingham Castle, and the people who lived there?
In 1175 a group of carpenters and masons, led by Alnoth the engineer, travelled Suffolk to dismantle Framlingham Castle on royal orders. King Henry II ordered the castle to be knocked down because Earl Hugh Bigod had rebelled against the Crown.

Et in custamento prosternendi castri Waleton' .XXXj. l. et .viij. s. et. iij. d. per breve regis et per visum Roberti de Willauesham et Ailnođi ingeniatoris. Et pro prosternendo castro de Framingeham .vij. l. et .x. s. et. vj. d. per idem breve et per visum predictorum.
Payment of £7 10s 6d (seven pounds, ten shillings and six pence) to Alnoth the engineer for dismantling the castle of Framlingham by order of the king.
Here, the king ordered the exchequer to pay two petitioners owed money by Walter de Mouncy, Constable of Framlingham Castle. Walter had borrowed money from them to repair and provision [stock with food and equipment] Framlingham castle. He died before he could pay the money back. The document is valuable as it tells us how castles were managed and maintained.

To the treasurer and barons of the exchequer. Order to allow to Oliver de Redham and William Godewyn, in their accounts of the debts that William de Mouncy, lately deceased, owed to the exchequer, the sums that the said William de Mouncy expended by the king's order in the time when he was constable of Framlingham castle, both in repairing the buildings of the same and in the provisioning of the same, for which he has not yet been allowed.
The treasurer and barons of the exchequer are ordered to pay Oliver de Redham and William Godewyn what is owed to them by Wiliam de Mouncy. William Godewyn borrowed money from Oliver de Redham and William Godewyn when he was constable of Framlingham castle to repair castle buildings and provision the castle, which he did by order of the king.
In this document, King Edward III confirmed or gave official royal recognition to, a legal document issued by the Earl of Norfolk during the reign of Edward II. The clerks responsible for such documents often varied in their spelling of place-names note the spelling of Framlingham castle in this source. Legal document produced at 'Framelyngham' Castle, 1338 - Patent Rolls, Edward III 1338-1340, Volume 4, p. 57; 12 Edward III, part 1 (catalogue reference: C 66/192, m. 6)

Inspeximus and confirmation in favour of Richard de la Chambre, of letters patent (in French) of Margaret Mareschall , countess of Norfolk, dated at her castle of Framlingham, 10 May, 5 Richard II (in the fifth year of the reign of King Richard II) being a grant, for life, at the yearly rent of 1d. to the said Richard, her yeomen, for service to her and her son, the earl of Pembroke, of a place called 'Crowes', within Framelyngham in the street opposite the east end of Framelyngham church, between the tenements of William Gerveyse and Amias Hook, together with six acres of land in a close called 'Petitys', one end abutting on Framelyngham park, four acres of land in another close next to the place called 'Moriel', three acres of land at Smythisbrok, two acres of Giuloteswall, four acres at Alputeswill, another piece of land at Deneysesdich in the open field (*campe*) of Framelyngham aforesaid and two acres of meadow in Perham by Framelyngham, all which lately escheated to the said countess after the death of John Crowe of Framelyngham. For ½ mark paid in the hanaper. Aug. 26. Westminster. 1384.
The inspection and confirmation shows that the legal document drawn up by Margaret Marshall, Countess of Norfolk, at her castle of Framlingham, dated 10
th May in the fifth year of the reign of King Richard II is valid.
The document grants Richard de la Chambre, a place called 'Crowes' in Framlingham with acres of land and meadow in the same village. This has been granted in return for Richard's service to her and her son (the Earl of Pembroke), for a yearly rent of 1d (one penny).

## Hate Crime What It Is And What To Do About It
This is a short guide about hate crime; what it is, what you can do about it and who can help. Hate crime is taken very seriously because of the devastating impact it has on individuals and communities. In the UK, we all have the right to go about our daily lives without fear or intimidation. No one should feel they are being picked on, singled out or mistreated because of who they are, or because they belong to a particular group.
## What Is A Hate Crime?
Hate crime creates fear and humiliation. Most people and organisations use the term hate crime, but the legal definition uses the word hostility, not hate. The law protects people against hostility when the hostility:
- is linked to a criminal offence; and
- is in some way about disability,
ethnicity, gender identity, nationality,
race, religion or sexual orientation.
The court can increase the sentence for someone who is found guilty in such cases.
## It'S The Things People Do: Cps
Hostility can be described as:
## Aggression Spite Antagonism Ill-Will Prejudice Confrontation Reporting A Hate Crime
Think you've seen, heard or experienced a hate crime?
## Report It To The Police. Phone 101, 999 Or Contact Stophateuk.Org
You can also report it through an alternative agency or the True Vision website, but if you feel in immediate danger you should always call the police. Make sure you say you are reporting it as a hate incident and let them know if you think you were targeted for more than one reason. Remember, if the words or behaviour make you feel bad, upset, annoyed or insulted and target something personal such as disability, ethnicity, gender identity, nationality, race, religion or sexual orientation, then you can report it to the police.
## Hate Incident Or Hate Crime?
The police will investigate the incident to decide whether a crime has been committed and to establish whether there is enough evidence to bring a prosecution. If there is enough evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction then it is more than likely that a prosecution will be in the public interest.
However, it is not always possible to bring a hate crime prosecution. This is because:
- There might not be enough evidence to allow the case to be prosecuted
- Even where there is enough evidence to prosecute, there might not be enough evidence to
show that it was linked to hostility and should be prosecuted as a hate crime.
It is always important to report a hate incident to the police so that it can be investigated and recorded. This helps to build up a picture of what is going on locally and what can be done to prevent it.
## Evidence Of Hostility
Hostility can be face-to-face, online or through social media and can be damage done to property.
BE
The most common evidence of a hate crime the police find is verbal abuse. Written abuse, such as graffiti, texts or online messages can also be evidence. It is a good idea to write down or record everything you can remember about what happened - who did what, what was said, who said it, when did it happen and where, and so on. If there has been damage or graffiti, taking photos can help you keep an accurate record. It might also help to make an audio recording of what happened to you.
## Prosecuting Hate Crime
The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) prosecutes most crime in England and Wales. The police (and other investigators) investigate allegations of crime but it is the CPS that prosecutes cases through the criminal courts. The CPS Code for Crown Prosecutors sets out how the CPS makes the decision to prosecute. The CPS reviews each hate crime case referred by the police. Where there is evidence, the CPS looks to prosecute as a hate crime and apply for an increased sentence. The CPS also provides information, assistance and support to victims and prosecution witnesses.
## Can I Get Help If I Go To Court?
In 2015/16, most hate crime prosecutions ended with the defendant pleading guilty (73.3%). This means that most victims and witnesses did not have to attend court. If you do have to attend court there is support available, such as interpreters, and you will be asked what help you might need. In some cases, special measures can be used for victims of hate crime. If the court agrees, it can allow evidence to be provided by video link, from behind screens or by pre-recording your evidence on tape to avoid you having to see the people responsible. The support available will depend on your own circumstances, but it is very important to let the police and Witness Care Unit (WCU) know as soon as possible, so that the right arrangements can be made. WCUs are run jointly by the police and CPS and provide core services to all witnesses. Additionally, Citizens Advice provides free, independent support for witnesses in criminal courts in England and Wales. Further information can be found at: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/about-us/ citizens-advice-witness-service/
## Stirring Up Of Hatred
This type of hate crime is committed when someone uses threatening words or behaviour or publications such as posters and leaflets, which are intended or likely to encourage hatred towards other people. Currently, the law covers the targeting of people in this way on the basis of ethnicity, nationality, race, religion or sexual orientation. These crimes are about more than just showing hostility to one person, but about stirring up hatred against a whole group of people. Hate is a stronger feeling than hostility and is defined in the dictionary as to loath, detest, or abhor someone or something.
## Who Else Can Help?
There are many national organisations that provide good general advice online. Some will have helplines and may be able to give advice over the phone. Discuss the incident with an agency such as Citizens Advice to learn more about your options. The list below is not comprehensive, but gives details of some of the national bodies with an interest in tackling hate crime and supporting its victims.
- Citizens Advice
- Community Security Trust
- Disability Rights UK
- Galop
- Mencap
- MIND
- National Hate Crime Report and Support Centre Wales
- People First
- Scope
- Stonewall
- Stop Hate UK
- Tell Mama
- True Vision
- Victim Support
- TEXT 999 helps those who cannot speak for any reason, or are in a
situation where it's dangerous to be obvious in calling for help
- British Transport Police text number 61016
- There are also useful hate crime reporting apps such as Self Evident and True vision
You can also contact any local specialist provider or community organisation. Third party reporting centres operate in some areas supporting victims of hate crime and liaising with local police. Community Safety Officers from your local council will be able to help. | en |

## Vision 1
The oceans and seas that surround Europe offer new opportunities to meet the Europe 2020 goals
(1). To realise this potential, we need to make it easier for companies to invest. We need to lower costs, reduce risks and stimulate innovation. And we need to ensure that this expansion of the blue economy is sustainable. The resources are large but not infinite. To ensure that the expansion of the blue economy happens, that it is sustainable and that Europe's seas will achieve good environmental status
(2) we need to know what the state of the sea is now, how it was in the past and how it might change in the future. The Commission aims to work together with Member States to bring together available resources and mechanisms to deliver that knowledge for the benefit of industry, public authorities, researchers and society. This will include a flagship project to prepare a seamless multi-resolution digital seabed map of European waters by 2020. It should be of the highest resolution possible, covering topography, geology, habitats and ecosystems. It should be accompanied by access to timely observations and information on the present and past physical, chemical and biological state of the overlying water column, by associated data on human activities, by their impact on the sea and by oceanographic forecasts. All this should be easily accessible, interoperable and free of restrictions on use. It should be nourished by a sustainable process that progressively improves its fitness for purpose and helps Member States maximise the potential of their marine observation, sampling and surveying programmes. While the EU can provide support through the Common Strategic Framework for structural funding, including the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund, commitment from Member States and the private sector is needed to achieve this goal.
## This Green Paper 2
The Commission's 'Marine Knowledge 2020' Communication of September 2010
(3), explained why we need to unlock the economic potential of Europe's wealth of marine observations. It showed this would contribute towards meeting Europe
2020
(4) targets on employment, innovation, education, social inclusion and combatting climate change. It would provide the knowledge base to facilitate the growth of a sustainable, job-creating 'blue economy' in marine and maritime sectors by improving the competitiveness and efficiency
of industry, public authorities and researchers.
It would stimulate innovation and improve our understanding of the behaviour of the sea. The Communication then outlined the basic principles for a strategy that would enable investments in marine observation from Member States and the EU to realise their potential for creating sustainable growth and jobs. Central to this strategy was the concept of a European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet
(5)), a network of marine organisations that would provide a single entry point for accessing and retrieving marine data derived from observations, surveys or samples from the hundreds of databases maintained on behalf of agencies, public authorities, research institutions and universities throughout the EU. It would also deliver digital map layers of parameters derived from these primary data for entire sea basins around Europe. But the 'Marine Knowledge 2020' initiative is broader than EMODnet. It provides a unifying framework for all ongoing activities on marine observation within the EU. It embraces the full cycle, from initial observation through to interpretation, processing and dissemination. It enshrines basic principles such as 'collect data once and use them for many purposes' and 'data should be interoperable, accessible and free of restrictions on use'.
These common principles, rules and standards ensure that Member States' programmes, as well
as other significant EU efforts can contribute,
together with EMODnet, to create a capability much greater than the sum of its parts. These include the marine service of the European Earth moni-toring programme (GMES)
(6), the Data Collection Framework in fisheries and new pan- European research infrastructures identified by the European Strategy Forum for Research Infrastructures (ESFRI). Since the adoption of 'Marine Knowledge 2020', there has been good progress. Preparatory actions under the integrated maritime policy have delivered prototype thematic portals for EMODnet for selected sea-basins. An interim evaluation
(7) based on user feedback has confirmed the basic soundness of the technological choices and the processes for assembling disparate data sets. On this basis, a second phase of EMODnet, financed by the Integrated Maritime Policy Financial Regulation
(8), has begun. This will provide access to a digital map of all European waters by the end of 2014.
This will show, through a single access point, the depth of water, as well as the nature of sediments, the whereabouts of minerals, zones of human activity and the type of habitat. It will be accompanied by observations of physical, chemical and biological parameters such as temperature, salinity, acidity, chemical pollution and marine life. It will be tightly linked to the GMES marine service which will continue to deliver progressively more refined observations and forecasts of the state of the ocean. However, there are a number of new challenges to be faced:
(1) major EU initiatives, especially EMODnet and
GMES, have so far been implemented through limited-duration projects that will finish by 2014.
(2) the prolonged financial crisis has focused attention on public spending. There is an even greater need to ensure that some one and a half billion euro spent annually by EU Member States on Europe's marine monitoring network is cost-effective.
(3) easier access to fisheries data has not
happened.
(4) the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami
tragedy in Japan, followed by the nuclear accident at Fukushima, highlighted the benefits of bringing near-real time information on the state of the marine environment into the public domain.
(5) uncertainty as to the present and future impact of climate change on Europe's seas and coasts is stalling local and regional authorities' efforts to adapt.
and also new opportunities:
(1) a study
(9) has shown that private companies
collect even more data than public authorities, but these have not been incorporated within EU initiatives so far.
(2) what will be provided through EMODnet in
2014 is an improvement over what exists and will already provide useful services to public and private bodies. However, it does not stretch the capabilities of current technology. The digital terrain model of the European seabed will be delivered at a resolution of about 250 metres; four times better than what was previously publicly available on
a pan-European scale. Surveying instruments have a precision of centimetres, which would
allow the creation and distribution, at least in some regions, of the much higher resolution product that users want.
(3) the 2014-2020 financial framework for the
EU offers an opportunity to develop a more sustainable governance structure in which the collection, assembly and dissemination of marine data moves from being a set of projects defined by the Commission to a continuous, integrated process with priorities based on the needs of users in industry, public authorities and the research community.
(4) the rapid expansion of offshore wind power
will transform, stimulate and augment
the overall marine economy. Benefits of better access to marine data calculated on
the basis of the 2010 economy will be underestimates.
(5) the new Horizon 2020 research programme
offers an opportunity to improve technologies for gathering and processing marine observations.
(6) Member States and Associated Countries
have agreed to pool resources in a Joint
Programming Initiative 'Healthy and Productive Seas and Oceans' that can provide a framework for coordination of observation programmes
(10).
This Green Paper takes stock of what has been done. It then opens a debate on the best strategy for moving forward to a new phase that meets the challenges defined here and profits from the opportunities to deliver an accessible, sustainable digital mapping of European sea-beds by 2020. It would also provide timely information on the present and past physical, chemical and biological state of the overlying water column and forecasts, together with a process that helps Member States maximise the potential of their marine observation, sampling and surveying programmes.
## The Need For Marine Knowledge 3 3.1. Industry
Our seas and oceans can provide the stimulus we need to get our economies moving. They can provide challenging, rewarding jobs that meet the expectations of our young people. They can provide the clean energy we need if we are to avoid a climate catastrophe. They can provide protein for healthy diets. They can provide pharmaceuticals or enzymes from organisms that inhabit the greatest extremes of temperature, light, and pressure encountered by life. And a growing global hunger for raw materials is increasing the economic attractiveness of deep-sea mining. These new opportunities for blue growth and jobs are being driven by two developments. First, a shortage of available land and freshwater is encouraging mankind to look again at the 71 % of the planet covered by saltwater. Second, rapid advances in underwater observation, remote handling and construction technology, developed primarily in the petroleum industry, now allow safe operations in deeper waters under a wider range of oceanographic and meteorological conditions.
In some sectors the growth is already happening. For instance, wind energy is the fastest growing form of electricity generation in terms of installed capacity. Already, 10 % of wind installations are offshore and this proportion is growing. The European Wind Energy Association reckons that by 2020, 30 % of new construction will be offshore and 60 % by 2030. Success breeds success. Investments such as electricity grids for these
offshore wind platforms will bring growth to other industries in their wake. However, working at this new frontier will inevitably be costlier and riskier than operating on land if each offshore facility needs to construct its own ancillary services such as cabling or supply networks. Or if all are obliged to carry out separate surveys of the sea bottom, to measure tide and currents, assess marine life that might be disturbed by their activity and monitor risks from tsunamis, storms or unfriendly marine life. For instance, aquaculture operators need warnings of approaching toxic algal blooms or jellyfish invasions. Mining companies need to know the topography and geology of the seafloor. Insurance companies and investors in ports and tourism need data on past extreme events to estimate the likelihood of future damage and to develop climate-proof coastal infrastructure. Biotechnology companies looking for new pharmaceuticals or enzymes to catalyse industrial processes need to know where to look for the strange life forms that can live without light or withstand extremes of temperature. Marine knowledge is needed in the licencing,
design, construction and operation of offshore installations. A leading licensee of offshore wind energy has argued (11) that marine data should be a public good, that business could be more competitive and the cost of generating offshore energy cut if there were clearer public policies on data ownership, less cost-recovery pricing from public bodies and common standards across jurisdictions and disciplines. And, since 'even an entire society, a nation, or all simultaneously existing societies taken together, are not owners of the Earth. They are simply its possessors, its beneficiaries, and have to bequeath it in an improved state to succeeding generations' (12), this new marine economy needs to be sustainable. Offshore operators need marine knowledge to assess and limit the environmental impact of any proposed activity.
## 3.2. Public Authorities
Coastal authorities need knowledge of erosion rates, sediment transport and topography to
determine whether protection, accommodation or retreat is the most appropriate strategy for managing shorelines. Fisheries authorities need data on past effort and catch composition to set quotas for the following year. Public health authorities need to assess whether the sea is safe for bathing and seafood safe for eating. Civil protection authorities need to be able to calculate where an oil spill will hit the shore. Coastguards need to know how long survivors of an accident can survive in the water. Environmental authorities need to assess the environmental status of their seas and oceans and to ensure they remain safe and clean
(13). The achievement of EU goals on integrated coastal zone management
(14) and maritime spatial planning
(15) requires knowledge of human activities and sensitive habitats. Maritime surveillance by radar or sonar is improved with knowledge of sea-surface conditions, temperature and salinity.
## 3.3. Science
Scientific understanding underpins industrial innovation and environmental protection. Marine science depends on observations. We cannot run controlled experiments with two planet Earths. Only by looking back at the past can we understand what might happen in the future. Gaps left in the record cannot be filled later. An editorial on this subject in the scientific periodical 'Nature' argued that 'an accurate and reliable record of what is going on can trump any particular strategy for trying to understand it'
(16).
With these observations, scientists can begin to reduce uncertainty about the past and present behaviour of processes such as ocean circulation, ice melting, sea-level rise, carbon uptake, ecosystem shifts or ocean acidification - all of which have significant impacts on human well-being and natural ecosystems. Better monitoring of the seas and oceans is not enough to reduce this uncertainty, but it is certainly necessary. The Economist
(17)
has suggested that governments are not spending enough on satellite observations. Reducing uncertainty in the past and present can improve forecasts for Europe's climate that are fed into the review and assessment process of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Wide international participation and careful peer-review ensure that the Panel's assessments are the main vehicle for informing government officials responsible for introducing adaptation measures.
## 3.4. Civil Society
Citizens in a democracy need information for holding their elected representatives to account on issues that affect their neighbourhood, their livelihoods, their health or the planet Earth that they wish to bequeath to their children. Experience has shown it is wrong to assume that the technical background to these issues is best left entirely to the appropriate responsible authorities. An editorial in Nature
(18) used the example of the Fukushima accident to make the case that better public access to data would contribute to better risk assessment: 'This would unleash the diverse creativity of academic researchers, journalists, software geeks and mappers'.
## Availability And Interoperability 4 4.1. Bottlenecks
The European Commission, in its 2010 Communication 'Marine Knowledge 2020'
(19), pointed out that bottlenecks were preventing investments in marine data from delivering their potential benefits. Data were held by hundreds of different institutions in the EU - hydrographic offices, geological surveys, local authorities, environmental agencies, research institutes, universities. Finding out who held the data was a major challenge. Obtaining them could take weeks of negotiation. And putting them together to provide a complete picture could be a complex and lengthy process. Many data were typically neither accessible nor interoperable.
## 4.2. Multiple Use Of Marine Data
The same marine observations on physical, chemical and biological parameters can meet the needs of a multitude of end-users. For example, data on ocean temperature and salinity are used for assessing ocean climate change, choosing sites for aquaculture or determining the limits of sonar to detect submarines. Data on seabed substrata are needed to plan the extraction of aggregates or hydrocarbons, ensure secure foundations for wind turbine platforms, or assess the impact of fishing. The same data on marine habitats can be used to assess the impact of a new facility or to report on the state of the environment. It is this multiple functioning of underlying marine data across disciplines and sectors that makes an open access policy the most efficient option. For such a policy to be efficient and effective, the data need to be publicly available and interoperable. Commission policy is that marine data should
be relevant, accessible, free of charge and free of restrictions on use.
## 4.3. Competitiveness And Innovation
There is a clear cost to the fragmentation and
inaccessibility of marine data. The impact assessment
(20) accompanying the Communication estimated that existing users would save € 300 million a year if the data were properly integrated and managed. These estimates do not take into account inevitable future growth in the marine economy and the consequent increased demand for data. The first specific objective of 'Marine Knowledge 2020' is to reduce costs for industry, public authorities and researchers. Without better accessibility to marine data, addedvalue services such as fish stock assessment or vulnerability of coastal infrastructure to storm surges can only be provided by the organisations holding the data. This is inefficient and anti-competitive. Opening up these resources allows new operators to enter the market. Interoperability allows small businesses or academics to develop new products and services based on data from different sources and of different types. The value of this to the EU economy is hard to estimate, but the impact assessment suggested it could be of the order of € 200 million per year. The second specific objective of 'Marine Knowledge 2020' is to stimulate innovation. That estimate does not take into account a rationalisation of present marine observation systems that would reduce uncertainty in our understanding of the behaviour of the sea. The economic value of this is even harder to guess, but could be even greater. Indeed, uncertainty is a principal enemy of those responsible for designing offshore structures that can withstand the vagaries of the sea, for managing fish stocks or for designing
protected marine areas. It has been estimated
(21)
that a 25
% reduction in uncertainty in future sealevel rise would save public authorities responsible for coastal management approximately € 100 million per year.
An optimised, accessible and interoperable marine observation system that helps scientists reduce uncertainty would be a major contribution to climate change adaptation. Ocean acidification or changes in ocean salinity and dissolved oxygen will certainly have an impact on marine ecosystems and our ability to harvest from them. Earlier information will give industries such as that for shellfish aquaculture time to adapt. And, although it is certain that the planet is warming, it is not clear what is going to happen to local climates in Europe over the next decades
(22). However, it is known that changes in ocean circulation drive the severity or mildness of Europe's seasons. With more certainty, forecasts of energy demand or agricultural production can be improved. Investments in adaption can be made in confidence. The third specific objective of 'Marine Knowledge 2020' is to reduce uncertainty in our understanding of the behaviour of the sea.
These specific objectives were endorsed by the Council in December 2011
(23).
1.
Are there any reasons why there should be exceptions, other than those related to personal privacy, to the Commission's policy of making marine data freely
available and interoperable?
## Progress So Far 5 5.1. National Efforts
Data on the marine environment are a valuable asset. Long-term trends can only be distinguished from seasonal changes and decadal-scale natural variation if observations from the past, including those collected before the advent of digital storage devices, can be compared with those of the present. If these data are lost they are gone forever. Observations cannot be repeated. And they need to be available for use immediately to prepare for threats such as incoming oil-slicks. Accordingly, a number of Member States are setting up national processes for proper stewardship of data that ensures not only safe archiving, but also cataloguing using standards and technology that allows fast retrieval of data through automated processes. These national systems are the foundations of the distributed processes that are being built up at EU level using INSPIRE
(24) -based standards. Examples include MEDIN in the UK, the French Ifremer-Sextant geoportal, the German MaNIDA coordination of research data and their MDI-DE initiative for agencies. Regional initiatives, such as the Spanish Balearic Islands Coastal Observing and Forecasting System
(25), can also contribute.
## 2. How Can Member States Ensure That The Data They Hold Are Safely Stored, Available, And Interoperable? 5.2. European Marine Observation And Data Network (Emodnet)
The concept of a European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet) that would unlock fragmented and hidden marine data resources was first mooted in the 2006 Green Paper for maritime policy
(26). EMODnet is a network of organisations supported by the EU's integrated maritime policy. These organisations work together to observe the sea, to render the marine data collected freely available and interoperable, to create seamless data layers across sea-basins and to distribute the data and data products through the internet. A first set of preparatory actions was launched in 2009 to set up prototype data platforms. Six thematic assembly groups - for hydrography, geology, physics, chemistry, biology and physical habitats - brought together a network of 53 organisations. These were largely public bodies - hydrographic offices, geological surveys, oceanographic institutes - that already manage marine data themselves. They were supported by private companies with expertise in data processing and dissemination.
These groups constructed internet gateways to data archives managed by Member States and international organisations. They reinforce and build on ongoing efforts within the Member States such as those listed in section 5.1. From these six portals, public or private users of marine data can now not only access the standardised observations themselves, together with data quality indicators, but also data products such as sediment or physical habitat maps for entire sea basins. No restrictions have been imposed on access or use of these data products. The work builds on and reinforces the INSPIRE Directive
(27), the Environmental Information Directive
(28) and the Directive on the re-use of public sector information. The Common Information Sharing Environment (CISE)
(29) will be able to import EMODnet data and so provide information
(30) to maritime authorities in environment, fisheries, transport, border control, customs, and general law enforcement as well as defence. The work was guided and monitored by an independent group of experts and an interim evaluation (31) has confirmed the soundness of the approach. Accordingly, the work is being extended under the 2011 Regulation to support the Integrated Maritime Policy
(32) to cover all European sea basins. A thematic group on human activities will be set up to complement the other six. By 2014, the aim is to deliver a medium-resolution
(33)
mapping of European seas for these seven themes. The Regulation also supports prototype 'sea-basin checkpoints' for the first time. These are mechanisms to identify whether the present observation infrastructure is the most effective possible and whether it meets the needs of public or private users. The first two will cover the North Sea and the Mediterranean.
The Commission proposal for a new European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (34) under the 2014-
2020 financial framework aims to provide financial support for EMODnet's move towards operational capability. With a secure budget, the Network can move from being a set of finite-duration projects specified by the Commission to a continuous and sustainable process, with priorities defined by the needs of industry, public authorities and the research community. Options for a governance structure for this process are outlined in section 6 of this paper.
The thematic groups allow the appropriate experts to define a common structure for all data within each theme. For instance, biological species observations need at least common descriptions for the time, place and method of sampling, the name of the species and precision of measurement. The interim evaluation of EMODnet (35) found the proposed fields for thematic groups logical, but suggested that consideration be given to merging the hydrography and geology groups. Nearly all nations have separate hydrographic agencies and geological surveys with separate missions, but there is now some overlap. Both are now concerned with environmental protection and some of the instruments and methods used for surveys are the same. Both construct knowledge of the seafloor from multibeam echosounder surveys.
## 3. Are The Seven Thematic Groups Of The European Marine Observation And Data Network The Most Appropriate? Should Some Be Combined? (E.G. Geology And Hydrography) Or Should Some Be Divided?
4.
What should be the balance in EMODnet
between providing access to raw data and developing digital map layers derived from the raw data across seabasins?
## 5.3. Gmes Marine Service
The European Earth monitoring programme (GMES)
(36) is a flagship of European Union space policy
(37). The main objective of its marine service is to deliver products and services that added-value service providers can build on to provide services to public and private users. The vision is to ensure that products are developed from the most advanced technology, satellite observations, computational power and forecasting capability available in Europe. Under the GMES programme, a marine service has been progressively developed and implemented by 60 organisations. This processes and analyses information from in-situ and space measurements to deliver two classes of information: (1) ocean observations and (2) monitoring and forecasting. Ocean models are used to deliver three-dimensional past, present and future ocean states
(38) at a global and European sea-basin level for different parameters such as sea temperature, currents, salinity, sea ice, sea level, wind and biogeochemistry. Until now, this marine service has been funded through the EU's research budget. As of 2014, GMES will enter its full operational phase and should be funded through an operational budget. In addition to the marine service which has, up to now, focused on observation and providing near-real time and forecasted information on the oceans, a GMES climate service is proposed. The simulation models of the current marine service need to be calibrated and validated against
observations of the past, so the marine service already has the capacity to store and process these time series of ocean observations. This investment will be useful for determining changes in ocean characteristics for the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, as well as providing a valuable building block of the proposed new climate service.
Standards are being developed so that both the GMES marine service and EMODnet can access the same in-situ data.
5.
Should a common platform be set up to
deliver products from both GMES and EMODnet?
6.
Should the GMES marine products and service also be tailored for use by those studying climate change and environmental protection as well as those needing a near-real-time operational service?
## 5.4. Data Collection Framework For Fisheries
Since 2001 (39), the EU has funded the collection and dissemination of data on EU fisheries by national authorities. Data from surveys, samples and reported catch, effort and discarding enable the impact on the fish stock to be assessed. Parameters such as fleet capacity, employment and profitability also enable analysis of the socio-economic health of fishing communities. The primary purpose is to support management of the Common Fisheries Policy, though a revision in 2008
(40) extended the data to the aquaculture and processing sector and widened access for scientific or public awareness purposes.
Article 37 of the Common Fisheries Reform proposal (41) goes further. It obliges Member States to collect biological, technical, environmental and socio-economic data and to cooperate regionally. These provisions of the Basic Regulation will replace the 2008 Regulation. The details will be spelled out in a new EU Multi-Annual Programme for 2014-2020. The Commission proposal for a new European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (42) under the 2014-
2020 financial framework proposes that the Data Collection Framework for Fisheries shift from
centralised to shared management, so that Member States take over responsibility for managing funding and monitoring implementation from the Commission. In general, fisheries advice requires data from all countries that fish a particular species or particular area. Once the data are assembled for a specific purpose, the aggregated data may be published in a report. However, the raw data provided by the Member States cannot currently be distributed for other purposes without the consent of those who provided the data. In practice, this procedure is so cumbersome that it never happens. This leads to a lack of independent checks, which severely limits confidence in the results and stifles innovation. The Commission believes that overcoming issues of personal and commercial confidentiality is straightforward. It is perfectly feasible to distribute fisheries information that meets all requirements for understanding the ecosystem without revealing the activity of individual vessels. The new Multi- Annual Programme 2014-2020 has been framed accordingly. Currently, EMODnet does not provide access to data collected under the Data Collection Framework.
7.
Should data that is assembled under the Data Collection Framework for a particular purpose such as a fish stock assessment be available for re-use without the requirement to obtain authorisation from the original providers of these data?
8.
Should an internet portal similar to those for EMODnet be set up to provide access to data held by Member States, as well as data assembled for particular stocks, particular fleet segments or particular fishing areas?
If so, how should it be linked to EMODnet?
9.
Should control data, such as that derived from the Vessel Monitoring System that tracks fishing vessels, be made more available? If so, how can confidentiality concerns be resolved?
## 5.5. Research
EU Member States spend approximately € 1.85
billion a year on marine research. About half is on infrastructure for facilitating observation. This includes ships, underwater observatories, floating buoys, drifting devices, remotely operated or autonomous underwater vehicles, all equipped with a range of sensors and analytical capabilities. The European Strategy Forum for Research Infrastructures (ESFRI) has currently identified six pan-European infrastructures that will have an essential role for the European marine research community. The Commission's 2010 Communication on an 'Innovation Union' proposes that 60
% of infrastructures identified by ESFRI be launched or constructed by 2015.
The EU's contribution to marine and maritime research related actions in the Seventh Framework Programme amounted to € 350 million
(43) annually. € 25-30 million per year of this is dedicated to marine research infrastructures and research on marine observation technologies (sensors and systems for marine observation). The Framework Programme has also supported the SeaDataNet project, which has been instrumental in harmonising marine data standards and ensuring interoperability between marine databases. SeaDataNet technology is fundamental to the EMODnet platform. Other EU projects make observations to improve our knowledge of the sea. The Commission's 'Horizon 2020' proposal for a research and innovation programme in the years 2014-2020 includes a larger budget and simpler procedures than the outgoing programme. This research programme can contribute to the 'Marine Knowledge 2020' objectives through (1) support to the development and integration of marine research infrastructures at EU level, (2) development of user-oriented and cost-effective marine observation technologies, (3) research projects that will deliver data on the marine environment and its interactions with human activities, including for the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. To encourage the development of intellectual property, ideas developed in EU research programmes become the property of the researcher. So new sensors or marine observation platforms will not only support more efficient, effective monitoring of our seas and oceans, but can also provide the basis for export potential in a high-technology sector with a global market. However, ocean observations themselves cannot be patented and will benefit the economy most if they are made freely available. At present, many of these observations are not disseminated once the research project has finished. This is partly because researchers wish to publish their results before releasing them, but also because there are no incentives or requirements for them to make the effort.
10.
What should be the focus of EU support to new marine observation technologies? How can we extend ocean monitoring and its cost effectiveness? How can the EU strengthen its scientific and industrial position in this area?
11.
Should there be an obligation for research projects to include a provision ensuring the archiving and access to observations collected during the research project?
## 5.6. Environmental Reporting
A wide range of data is collected by Member States to implement EU Directives such as the Water Framework Directive, the Bathing Waters Directive, the Habitats Directive, and, most recently, the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. Member States also report environmental indicators to regional sea conventions such as OSPAR, HELCOM, the Barcelona Convention and the Bucharest Convention. As part of the obligations of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, Member States have a legal obligation to report data underlying initial assessments and stemming from monitoring programmes to the Commission and the European Environment Agency. The reporting requirements of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive are the basis of the marine component of the Water Information System for Europe, WISE- Marine. Under Article 19 of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, there is a requirement for Member States to provide access to data resulting from the assessments and monitoring. EMODnet will be used to enable this access. The European Environment Agency has been fully involved with the development of EMODnet. The prototype portals already built in the first phase of the project and the more advanced ones being prepared in the second phase were specifically designed to deliver parameters that can be used for constructing indicators that will be necessary to assess the state of the environment under the Marine Strategy Framework Directive.
The reporting protocols used for different reporting mechanisms are not necessarily the same, but in the context of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, greater convergence is expected. And while some of the data used to construct the indicators reported to the competent authority or the Commission are publicly available, many are not.
12.
Should the 'push' process whereby marine environment reports are delivered be progressively replaced by a 'pull' process, whereby data are made available through the internet and harvested by the competent authority using technology developed through EMODnet?
## 5.7. Climate Change Adaptation
To support the development and dissemination of the knowledge base on adaptation, the Commission launched the European Climate Adaptation Platform, CLIMATE-ADAPT
(44) in March
2012, a publicly accessible internet site to support policy-makers in the development of climate change adaptation measures and policies at EU, national, regional and local levels. CLIMATE-ADAPT features a section on EU marine and fisheries policies, indicators of climate change and a database of adaptation case studies, in particular those from OURCOAST
(45). The Commission is developing a proposal for an EU Adaptation Strategy, to be adopted in 2013. A more structured approach to marine observations can deliver more accurate indicators of local changes in climatic parameters such as sea-level rise and ocean acidification to the CLIMATE-ADAPT platform and therefore help the adaptation process.
## 13. What Information On The Behaviour Of Our Seas And Coasts Can Best Help Business And Public Authorities Adapt To Climate Change? 5.8. International Initiatives
Piecing together a global picture of the marine world and how it is changing requires observations and data from organisations outside Europe as well as inside. More structured and open access to European marine observations and data, as described in this Green Paper, will enable Europe to provide a practical contribution to international efforts to provide global coverage such as the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS), the Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS) and the United Nation process for global reporting and assessment of the marine environment.
14.
Are any additional measures required, over and above existing initiatives such as EMOD- net and GMES, to enable Europe to support international initiatives on ocean data such as GOOS and GEOSS?
## Governance 6
A sustainable marine data infrastructure requires a process to decide which observations to make, to choose which data products to create and to provide financial support for the process of collection, assembly, processing and dissemination.
## 6.1. Balance Between Efforts Of Eu And Member States
Member States have a legal responsibility to monitor their own waters and their own fishing fleets. Nevertheless, in some cases, there are clear advantages in pooling efforts. The obvious example is observation from Earth-orbiting satellites. It would clearly be inefficient for each Member State to launch a constellation of satellites to measure ocean colour, sea-surface temperature, sea-level and ice extent. Indeed, the EU has supported the development and initial operation of satellites through its GMES programme
(36). The EU also supports survey and sampling programmes in fisheries, where it requires the results for its own purposes.
However, there are other examples where effort at an EU level might be justified. For instance, reducing uncertainty in the magnitude and impact of climate change in Europe is impossible without monitoring the subsurface currents of the Atlantic in areas outside territorial or jurisdictional waters. Doing so does not benefit the Member State doing the monitoring more than any other Member State. It benefits all European countries, even landlocked ones. The Arctic Ocean is another example where the EU could contribute to ongoing monitoring and mapping programmes to provide support for those who live and work there.
15.
What criteria should be used to determine EU financial support of observation programmes other than those that it already supports? Can you provide examples? Could the Joint Programming Initiative for European Seas and Oceans play a role?
## 6.2. Eu Support To Assembly And Processing Of Marine Data
Up to now, services from each thematic assembly group in EMODnet have been delivered by consortia through procurement contracts, with the six consortia selected through separate calls for tender for each group. In all, 53 different organisations have been involved as partners in the consortia, with many others contributing. Grants to the GMES marine service have been awarded following open calls for proposals. Again, about 60 organisations are involved. The EU budget pays for the delivery of defined outputs in procurements and contributes towards agreed eligible costs in grants. The partnerships in both EMODnet and GMES are heterogeneous. They include research institutes, agencies for meteorology or hydrography and universities. Some private companies provide software expertise. The Commission has no influence over the composition of these partnerships; they are self-selected. The large partnerships are an indication that the agencies or institutes involved prefer to be joint owners of a common enterprise rather than suppliers to a single lead contractor. The open calls in both cases ensure transparency and the results in both cases have been very satisfactory. However, as the initiatives mature, there is a need to ensure the long-term continuity of operations and infrastructure. Since much of the work in EMODnet involves the remodelling of national data archives, no partnership without the participation of the major national marine data centres can be complete. This might indicate the desirability of moving to a grant or a negotiated procedure which could be easier if the EMODnet partnerships had a legal status. Governance issues for the GMES marine service include a legal entity for the coordination and an appropriate financial mechanism.
## 16. How Could The Governance Of Emodnet And Gmes Evolve To Better Accommodate The Need For Long Term Sustainability? 17. What Could Be The Role Of The Joint Research Centre And The European Environment Agency? 6.3. Involvement Of Neighbours
Europe's seas do not only wash the shores of EU Member States. Understanding the ecological health of the Black Sea or planning a cross- Mediterranean cable requires cooperation with the neighbouring countries that share these sea-basins. For this reason, institutes from these countries have taken part in the first phase of the EMODnet construction. They too are faced with unacceptable levels of unemployment and they too can benefit from knowledge that will help them understand how to take advantage of offshore opportunities.
## 6.4. Selecting Priorities
Mapping and monitoring the sea is, for reasons set out above, essential for sustainable economic growth, environmental protection and understanding climate change. However, public budgets are limited and priorities need to be decided. As we shift from a paradigm of collecting data for specific purposes to collecting them once and using them for different purposes, two specific questions need answering: (1) what observation infrastructure and sampling strategy are needed for a particular sea-basin? and (2) how can the EU's financial contribution provide the most added-value? The Data Collection Framework is satisfactory on both counts. A process is in place to define what data need to be collected. Since an objective of the Common Fisheries Policy is to limit the environmental damage of fishing
(46), the sampling strategy already goes beyond the interest in maximising the fish yield.
The process to select Earth observation satellites needed to monitor the oceans is similarly satisfactory. It has been defined through the GMES process by determining which parameters
Earth-orbiting satellites can actually observe from a height of about 800 kilometres above the ocean. Technological progress and better scientific understanding enable progressive improvements in accuracy and the addition of more parameters. For instance, the operational monitoring of sea-ice thickness will become feasible with the launch of Sentinel-3. The European Environment Agency is in the process of identifying what other (non-satellite) measurements are needed to calibrate and validate GMES forecasting models (47).
For other observations, more needs to be done. Since shifting currents, migrating species and many economic activities do not respect national borders, the question on optimum observation and sampling infrastructure needs to be answered at sea-basin level. Within the integrated maritime policy regulation (48), a prototype mechanism has been set up to help Member States hone their observation and monitoring infrastructure. The 'sea-basin checkpoints' for the North Sea and the Mediterranean will evaluate by 2014 how well the present monitoring and assembly network meets the needs of private,
public and academic users. They will determine the relative merits of different monitoring systems - ferryboxes, fixed buoys, floats - measuring the same parameter. All information sources will be considered; public and private. This information will help guide Member States in their
investments. For instance, should multibeam surveying of the seabed be accelerated, or is more accurate information needed on changes in sea-level?
Similar choices need to be made at an EU level. In the proposed marine knowledge component of the Europe Maritime and Fisheries Fund, is it more urgent to focus on assembling data on mineral resources or on marine mammals?
Should the EU support surveying or sampling in international waters? Ultimately, Member States must make these decisions in the framework of the Council, but they need to have a proper evaluation of the options to guide them. The answers to these questions will depend on estimated costs and benefits.
18.
Is a regular process needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the observation and sampling strategy for each sea-basin?
19.
What mechanism could be envisaged to manage the evaluation and assessments needed to inform the Commission, Member States and Parliament on priorities for EU support?
## Private Sector Involvement 7
Marine industries will certainly benefit from the measures outlined in this paper, but there is potential for increasing these benefits by encouraging the engagement of the private sector.
According to a 2009 study
(49), more marine data is collected by European companies than by the public sector. If a private company collects data for its own purposes then, in principle, there is no reason for public authorities to intervene or interfere. European legislation on access and re-use of these data does not apply. However, private companies are already obliged to collect data as part of the impact assessment they have to carry out to obtain a licence for certain offshore activity. They may also be obliged to continue monitoring once operations start. In many cases, they are obliged to hand the data collected over to the licensing authority. However, once the licence has been granted, there is no apparent competitive disadvantage in releasing these data into the public domain. The Commission is aware that imposing reporting obligations on private companies under normal circumstances creates an administrative burden that is to be avoided. However, replacing a hotchpotch of different obligations with a single reporting mechanism with common INSPIRE-based standards could reduce the existing burden. A study has been launched to help assess costs and benefits.
There may also be a case for extending reporting obligations once the licence has been granted. The cost of instrumenting offshore platforms to provide continuous information on the state of the sea would be an almost negligible increase in the overall costs of the installation. The idea would be to collect data from all EU platforms as well as other observing platforms and make them publicly available. This could well cost less than the potential benefit to the whole offshore industry of obtaining better knowledge of potential threats such as rogue waves
(50), poisonous algae or radioactive leaks Improving the competitiveness of offshore business has been a prime motivation for 'Marine Knowledge 2020'. A public-private partnership whereby private companies share the expenses of running the European Marine Observation and Data Network in return for a say in the setting of priorities could accelerate this process.
20.
Under what circumstances should data provided by private companies for licencing purposes be made publicly available?
21.
Should licenced offshore private sector actors be obliged to contribute to wider monitoring of the sea where this is feasible?
22.
What public-private partnership models can maximise incentives for industry to share data and investments in data as well as benefits to all stakeholders?
## Responding To Green Paper 8

I.1 Introduction This annex explains the criteria used to designate water bodies in the Western Wales River Basin District as artificial or heavily modified. The criteria used for designation of freshwater water bodies can be found in section I.2 and the criteria for estuarine and coastal water bodies can be found in section I.3. Section I.4 discusses how results of a liaison panel consultation on designation were incorporated and further quality checks made to results. Section I.5 outlines how designation of new and split water bodies was made and I.6 maps the artificial and heavily modified water bodies in the Western Wales River Basin District.
The need to designate water bodies as heavily modified or artificial Article 4(3) of the Water Framework Directive (WFD) states that water bodies may be designated as artificial or heavily modified in the river basin management plans. The WFD recognises that some water bodies have been significantly physically modified to support various uses which provide valuable social and economic benefits. In many cases these modifications cannot be removed without having a major negative effect on the social and economic benefits that these uses bring. If achieving 'Good Status' would require changes to a water body's hydromorphology that would have significant adverse effects on the social or economic activity, then it can be designated as a artificial or heavily modified water body.
Before designation it also needs to be established that due to technical or disproportionate cost reasons there is no significantly better environmental option for delivering the social and economic benefits (European Union CIS guidance document no. 4, 2003). The WFD also recognises that many artificial bodies of water need to be managed in terms of their environmental quality and hydrology. Artificial and Heavily Modified Water Bodies (AWB/HMWBs) have to achieve an alternative objective of "good ecological potential" (GEP). The objective of GEP is similar to good status but takes into account the constraints imposed by the social and/or economic uses. Definitions Article 2 (8) of the WFD defines an artificial water body as a 'body of surface water created by human activity'. Article 2 (9) defines a heavily modified water body as a 'body of surface water which as a result of physical alterations by human activity is substantially changed in character, as designated by the Member State in accordance with the provisions of Annex II
(of the WFD).'
The definitions presented in the WFD are expanded on further in Common Implementation Strategy guidance documentation. In order to address the challenges of WFD in a cooperative and coordinated way, the Member States, agreed on a Common Implementation Strategy (CIS). CIS Guidance documents and technical reports have been produced to assist member states in implementing the WFD. CIS guidance document no. 4 focuses on the 'Identification and Designation of Heavily Modified and Artificial Water Bodies' and can be found at: http://circa.europa.eu/Public/irc/env/wfd/library?l=/framework_directive/guidance_documents/ guidancesnos4sheavilysmo/_EN_1.0_&a=d Paragraph 3.1.1 of CIS guidance No. 4 ("the CIS guidance") states that: 'In order to be a heavily modified water body, a water body must be: -
Physically altered by human activity;
-
Substantially changed in character;
-
Designated under Article 4(3)'.
In general, the changes to the hydromorphology need to be long-term and alter the morphological and hydrological characteristics in order to represent a substantial change in the character of a water body. Paragraph 3.1.2 of the CIS guidance interprets an Artificial Water Body as: 'A surface water body which has been created in a location where no water body existed before and which has not been created by the direct physical alteration or movement or realignment of an existing water body'. The guidance clarifies that this does not mean that there was only dry land present before. Minor ponds, tributaries or ditches may have been present, which were not regarded as discrete and significant elements of surface water. Significant water bodies that have changed water category due to modifications are considered to be heavily modified water bodies. For instance a river dammed to form a reservoir is a heavily modified river not an artificial lake.
I.2 Freshwater water bodies
Introduction A two-stage approach was developed to apply the Article 4(3) designation tests to those water bodies provisionally identified as AWB/HMWB for Article 5 reporting (Figure I.1). This list of provisional AWB/HMWBs was formed of water bodies that were at risk of failing good ecological status due to morphological pressures. The risk assessment was completed as part of the river basin characterisation process. Further detail on the risk assessment approach is discussed in Annex G. The two-stage designation process comprised of a rapid designation stage to identify 'obvious' AWB/HMWBs followed by a second more detailed assessment stage. The rapid designation stage applied the 4(3) tests to a small number of priority water body uses. The rapid designation stage was developed following the principles outlined in the UK TAG paper, 'Criteria and Guidance for the Designation of heavily modified water bodies':
www.wfduk.org/tag_guidance/article_4/heavily_modified_wb/view For water bodies where it was not possible to designate using the rapid process a further detailed process was applied. The detailed designation process also applied the Article 4(3)
tests but to a wider set of water body uses and gathered more supporting information and justifications for designation. The process is described in Figure I.1.

Overview of the rapid designation process for artificial water bodies A water body should be designated as artificial if the ability to achieve 'good ecological status' is limited through the designated use or through changes necessary for this use. However, not all man-made water bodies have to be designated. Paragraph 6.8.1 of the CIS guidance explains: 'There may be some circumstances where long established water bodies, which are subject to little or no pressures, are indistinguishable from natural waters. Under such circumstances it may be appropriate to consider their current biological condition as high ecological status (HES) or good ecological status (GES)'.
Water bodies that are considered as provisional artificial water bodies are shown in Figure I.3. The process for designating 'obvious' artificial water bodies is shown in Figure I.4

Overview of the detailed designation process
Where a decision on designation was not possible using the rapid process, water bodies were fed through to the detailed designation process. The detailed designation process took into account all eleven specified uses outlined in
Article 4(3); 1. Wider environment 2. Navigation including port facilities 3. Recreation 4. Drinking water supply 5. Power generation 6. Irrigation 7. Water regulation, subdivided into i) strategic water transfers and ii) impoundment
releases
8. Flood protection 9. Land drainage 10. Urbanisation 11. Other equally important sustainable human development activities Several specified uses may be extensive within a water body. For example a riverine water body may be used extensively for Navigation, Flood Protection and Urbanisation.
The detailed artificial and heavily modified water body designation process comprised of eight steps (Figure I.5). The steps highlighted in light green did not apply to artificial water bodies. Further detail on the steps can be found below.

Further detail on the steps outlined in Figure I.5: -
Step one involved setting out the links between the pressures identified in the provisional
identification of artificial and heavily modified water bodies, and the human uses associated with these pressures. Where water bodies did not have a specified use (and therefore could not have Article 4(3) tests applied), the water body was screened out from further assessment. The water bodies screened out were passed back into the broader river basin management process and have a target objective of good ecological status. Those which are not screened out remained as provisional artificial and heavily
modified water bodies and continue to step two. -
Step two involved the identification of those physical modifications that could result in
changes to the hydromorphology of the water body. These changes needed to be longterm and substantially alter the water body morphological and hydrological characteristics. These modifications also needed to have a specified use as determined in Article 4(3). If there were no such physical modifications then the water body was screened out as not heavily modified. For provisional heavily modified water bodies, if there were extensive modifications present that had an associated specified use then it was assumed they would meet the Article 4(3) tests and the water body could be designated as heavily modified and screened out from further tests, provided the
justification for the designation was recorded. For provisional artificial water bodies, as the water bodies are artificial, by default there must be extensive modifications associated with the water body, therefore it was not appropriate to apply this step. -
Step three involved bringing together information regarding morphological modifications
(from step two) and expert judgement from the Environment Agency ecology and biodiversity teams regarding the perceived ecological status of the water body. These teams were asked to assess how morphological modifications are affecting ecological status. Where water bodies are thought to be able to achieve good ecological status with existing hydromorphological modifications, the water body was screened out as not
heavily modified. Those which were not screened out remained as provisional artificial or
heavily modified water bodies and continued to step four. -
Step four identified any potential hydromorphological restoration actions that could result
in the water body achieving good ecological status. This step was informed by the expert
knowledge of linkages between modifications and the ecology identified in step three. -
In step five, information that had been gathered from earlier steps is pulled together in
order to qualitatively assess the effects of restoration actions on the specified uses or the wider environment. Water bodies where restoration actions would not significantly affect
the use or the wider environment in a negative way were screened out as not designated. These restoration actions to achieve good ecological status should go forward to the river basin management process (and be assessed as to their technical feasibility and cost effectiveness). The remaining water bodies were then assessed further in step six. -
Step six looked for 'other means' of delivering the benefits of the specified uses. If the
'other means' for providing the intended uses benefits were found to be technically infeasible then the water body can be designated as artificial or heavily modified as the
water body had met the requirements of Article 4(3)(b). Otherwise the water body is assessed further in step seven. -
Step seven considered the environmental benefit and monetary cost of any 'other
means'. Where the 'other means' were disproportionately costly or a worse environmental option, then water bodies could be designated as artificial or heavily
modified. If the 'other means' identified were a better environmental option and were not disproportionately costly then the water body could not be designated and screened out of further assessment. Only a small number of water bodies reached step seven to undergo these economic tests, most had been screened out at earlier stage.
-
The final step (step eight) compiled all the steps undertaken during the detailed
assessment and reports whether the water body was designated as an 'artificial water body', 'heavily modified water body' or 'not artificial or heavily modified water body' and
any relevant comments supporting the designation.

Liaison Panel Consultation Liaison Panel Consultation assessment & designation STAGE 3
Estuarine and Coastal Water Bodies were designated as Artificial and Heavily Modified Water Bodies for the following uses (outlined in the following sections) -
Flood protection use
-
Navigation, ports and harbours use
-
Coast protection use
-
Marine aggregate extraction use
-
Marine shell and fin fisheries use
The thresholds that were applied to the relationships between physical pressures, morphological change and ecological impacts were based on expert judgement.
Flood protection use Water bodies were assessed that had significant flood risk management assets that modify the hydromorphological characteristics to protect land. The removal of these assets could therefore compromise the benefits provided by flood protection. The assessment was based on three separate elements relating to: -
the extent of reclaimed land protected by shoreline flood protection assets;
-
barrages and barriers across the width of the main water body or forming a boundary with
another water body which provide flood protection benefits; and
-
sluices across the width of the main water body or forming a boundary with another water
body which provide flood protection benefits.
It is recognised that there are a large number of sluices associated with coastal and estuarine flood protection structures but these generally do not form the boundary with an adjacent water body. The view has been taken that such structures are only likely to be significant in the context of heavily modified water body designation where they span the width of the main water body or form a boundary with an adjacent water body. In addition to barrages/barriers and sluices, there are also a number of weirs in estuarine and coastal waters. However, none of these are considered to provide any flood protection benefit. Their main purpose has generally been to maintain water levels in the vicinity of upstream towns/villages, and they are therefore not considered further in the assessment.
Navigation, ports and harbours use Water bodies were assessed that had a significant navigation, ports or harbour use that modifies the hydromorphological characteristics of the water body. The assessment tested whether the actions to achieve good ecological status in these water bodies would compromise the benefits of navigation or ports and harbours. The key criteria that have been used for the assessment were: -
the extent of navigation dredging in the water body - maintenance of navigable depth in previously deepened areas is critical to maintenance of the navigation use;
-
the extent and intensity of dredge material disposal in the water body - disposal of dredge
material is critical to the maintenance of the navigation use; and
-
the extent of reclaimed areas behind quay lines - loss of quay line will directly affect
specified use (unless there is significant long-term spare capacity).
Where the answer to any question was uncertain, the decision on whether to designate as a heavily modified water body for navigation or port and harbour use was deferred and the water body designated using expert judgement from Environment Agency area and national staff (taking into account any stakeholder comments available for the water body).
Coast protection use Water bodies were assessed that contained significant coast protection structures/structures associated with the manipulation of sediment transport. The assessment examines whether the actions to achieve good ecological status in these water bodies would compromise the benefits provided by the coast protection structures. The key criteria that have been used for the assessment were: -
the extent of influence of manipulators of sediment transport on inshore waters within the water body; and
-
the extent of infrastructure development afforded protection by coast protection
structures.
They typically include soft cliff protection structures (linear defences) and beach erosion structures (groynes, offshore breakwaters). In some locations, coast protection is also delivered through beach nourishment. In some instances coast protection structures may also provide a flood defence function.
Where the answer to any question was uncertain, the decision on whether to designate as a heavily modified water body for reasons of coast protection was deferred and subject to more detailed assessment during the Environment Agency quality assurance and stakeholder consultation.
Marine aggregate extraction use Water bodies were assessed that were subject to marine aggregate extraction. Where such pressures were deemed to be significant, the assessment tested whether the actions to achieve good ecological status in these water bodies would compromise the benefits provided by the activity. The key criteria that have been used for the assessment were: -
the extent of water body area licensed for marine aggregate extraction (Marine aggregate
extraction generally occurs offshore and most licensed sites are out of the 1nm from baseline WFD boundary). However, a small number of extractions do take place within WFD water body boundaries including:
o sub tidal extraction of sand and gravel;
o intertidal extraction of sand; and o subtidal extraction of marl.
-
the extent of water body area subject to active extraction or sediment disturbance in the
past decade.
Where the answer to any question is uncertain, the decision on whether to designate as a heavily modified water body for reasons of marine aggregate extraction was subject to a more detailed examination using expert judgement from Environment Agency area and national staff (taking into account any stakeholder comments available for the water body).
Marine shellfisheries use Water bodies were assessed that were subject to marine shellfisheries use. Where such pressures are deemed to be significant, the assessment tested whether the actions to achieve good ecological status in these water bodies would compromise the benefits provided by the activity.
The criteria that has been used for the assessment was the extent of the shell fishing beds within designated shellfish waters within the water body. The main hydromorphological impacts of shellfisheries include presence of structures (for cultivated shellfisheries) and bed disturbance during harvesting of shellfish (dredging, suction dredging). The alleviation of the pressures associated with shellfisheries can be achieved through reductions in the amount and intensity of harvesting and/or through controls on harvesting methods. The assessment was based on the following information: -
extent of shellfish beds within designated shellfish waters in the water body; and
-
threshold of 15% of total water body area to identify whether the water body is at risk of
failing good ecological status.
-
whether the shell fishing activities within the water body are likely to cause significant
seabed disturbance and cover an area of greater than 15% of the water body area, (information supplied by the local Sea Fisheries Committee)
Where a water body is at risk from shellfisheries bed disturbance pressures (either alone or in combination with other forms of physical modification), two further specific tests need to be applied for a water body to be designated as heavily modified: -
would a reduction in extent of harvesting activity or change in harvesting method have a significant adverse effect on shellfisheries activity;
-
would all environmentally better and technically feasible alternatives be disproportionately
costly?
Consultation with Sea Fisheries Committees has indicated that the answer to both of these questions would generally be "Yes". For the purposes of this assessment, if a water body has been identified as "at risk" because of shellfisheries pressure, it has been designated as a heavily modified water body. Where responses have not yet been provided by the relevant Sea Fisheries Committees, the water body was flagged as "Unsure" and the final designation decision was made taking into account any received stakeholder and Environment Agency area comments before quality assurance.
Marine fin fisheries use Water bodies were assessed that were thought to be supporting significant fin fisheries activities. The criterion used for the fin fisheries assessment was: -
the extent of fin fishing activities including Otter and Beam trawling known to cause significant seabed disturbance Where responses were not provided by the relevant Sea Fisheries Committee, the water body was flagged as "Unsure". These were then further assessed as part of the Environment Agency quality assurance using any additional information from the stakeholder consultation.
I.4 Liaison panel review and further quality check of results
Liaison panel review After the rapid designation stage was complete, these interim results formed the basis of a liaison panel consultation. Liaison panels were invited to comment on the results from the rapid designation and provide any additional evidence they held on water bodies. Any information provided by the liaison panels was used to augment the existing information held within the Environment Agency. Where designation results from the liaison panels and the rapid designation process were contradictory the water body information was reviewed and designation results were modified where appropriate.
Quality check of designation results A further quality check of the designation results was undertaken as part of the ecological potential classification process. This was the first time the water body designations were used operationally in order to classify artificial and heavily modified water bodies. Through this process various corrections were made where designations were found to be inaccurate. Cross check with ecological status of the water body After the designation process was completed the Environment Agency made a cross check of the designation results and the ecological status of the water body. In some cases it was found that a water body has been designated as heavily modified yet the biological elements surveyed are showing good ecological status. Where this was the case the HMWB designation was removed. Further biological monitoring will be carried out between 2010 and 2012 to confirm that it was right to remove the designation. I.5 Designation of additional water bodies
In 2008, The Welsh Assembly Government agreed to the re-delineation or splitting of a small number of existing water bodies. These water bodies were not identified in time to be included in the designation process described above. Due to resource constraints and limited data availability, these water bodies have been assessed as part of a much simpler designation process, largely based on the results of the hydromorphology risk assessments. Annex G discusses risk assessment in more detail. Any water body with an 'at risk' or 'probably at risk' classification from the hydromorphology risk assessment process is designated as a provisional HMWB. Further map and aerial photography based analysis is used to identify provisional AWBs (based on physical indicators) which may include changing a previously identified pHMWB to a pAWB. An additional map-based assessment was used to provide a 'reality check' on the provisional designation status before the water bodies are finally identified as HMWBs or AWBs. Water body use (or reason for designation) is based on the pressures identified in the hydromorphology risk assessment process and any further available information relating to use (e.g. conservation designation, drinking water protected area or freshwater fisheries protected area). The list of uses assigned to freshwater and coastal/estuarine water bodies is the same as that used in the full designation process described above.

## Teacher'S Notes
This pack will enable you to prepare your students for this Independent Research session. It is vital that you read the information and return all necessary paperwork to ensure that students get the most from the visit. Our Independent Research session prepares students for searching, ordering, handling and analysing original documents. It also gives students an insight into the role of archives and the challenges of preserving historical records. In this session, students will:
Receive an introductory tour of 'The Keeper's Gallery'; Discuss how to analyse and interpret archival material through examining an original document; Explore the catalogue and be advised on searching for documents;
Learn how to reserve a seat in the reading room;
Receive a guided tour of the reading room areas.
## Teacher Preparation
It is essential that we receive all forms and paperwork for this session. Some of these forms must be submitted three weeks in advance of the visit. A full checklist for teachers and students has been provided. Please note that missing paperwork or failure to bring valid identification will prevent us from issuing one-day Student Reader Tickets. In advance of the visit, we advise teachers to ensure that all students have a topic, date range and knowledge of related individuals and events. An enquiry question and conceptual focus may also be useful in guiding students' research on the day.
Example: 'English Civil War'; 1625-1649; Cromwell, Strafford, Archbishop Laud, Fairfax; Treaty of
Newport, Arrest of 5 MPs, Grand Remonstrance; 'Why did the English execute their king?'; causation.
Teachers should also set students the preparation task provided in this pack. Its purpose is to familiarise students with The National Archives' catalogue, *Discovery*, and for students to gather references in advance of their visit. This will allow more time for examining original documents on the day.

On the day of your visit, you will need to show this identification to a member of the Education team to receive a one-day Reader Ticket. Photocopies of identification will not be accepted. Complete the student preparation task. On the day of the session, students must bring: The form of identification submitted during online registration.
A list of document references to order - see 'Student preparation task'. There is only one copy of each document available to view in the Reading Rooms, so have enough references to choose from in case the document you wish to order is in use by another reader.
## Student Preparation Task Dear Student We Are Looking Forward To Welcoming You To The National Archives. Millions Of Documents Are Held Here, And This Short Task Will Help You Discover Those That Interest You Most. Your Task Is Set Out For You In Four Stages, And Does Not Have To Be Completed All At Once. Once You Have Completed This Task, You Will:
know how to use The National Archives' catalogue to search for documents; have at least three document references to bring on the day of your visit, which you will use to order
and view documents in our Reading Rooms.
Stage 1: Deciding your research topic Students usually research a topic for an exam or an extended essay; however your teacher may be happy for you to pursue another area of interest. If your topic is broad, for example, covering over 50 or 100 years, select a narrower set of dates and a particular theme to explore; this will make your research more focused and manageable. Before continuing to Stage 2, ensure that you have decided the following:
Overall topic (eg. The Making of Modern Britain, 1951-2007); Research question (How far did life improve for people in post-war Britain?); Focused date range *(1950-1960);* Individuals/events *(Harold Macmillan, Festival of Britain, end of rationing);* Potential themes *(housing, immigration, employment, youth culture).*
If you are unsure of a topic to pursue, your teacher can advise you.
Stage 2: Seeing what's out there already! Finding references can be challenging; however sometimes the hard work has already been done for you! Before searching for references yourself, find out what researchers have already found on your topic, by following the suggestions below. Remember, not every link will bring up something relevant to you. Looking for a Subject?: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/looking-for-subject/default.htm Research Guides: Search topics by letter: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/atoz/ Your Archives A-Level Resources: http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/+/http://yourarchives.nationalarchives.gov.uk/index.php?title=Cate gory:A_level_resources Our digitised records, which include Cabinet Papers, Design Registers, and Foreign and Commonwealth Office photographs: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/catalogues-and-online-records.htm Education's focussed topics page: http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/education/sessions-and-resources/?resource-type=focussed-topics Look at footnotes of published books and articles on your topic for references beginning 'PRO' or 'TNA'.
## Student Preparation Task (Continued)
Stage 3: Searching *Discovery* Even if you have found lots of references using the links above, now search our catalogue, *Discovery*, to see what you can find yourself. We keep so many documents that some have not been seen for centuries, and it is only through people doing their own research that new and exciting discoveries are made. Use the following link to access *Discovery* and read the tips below to guide your search: http://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/SearchUI/.
Think carefully about what you type into Discovery
*Cold War* brings up over 250 results, many irrelevant; *"Cold War"* in speech marks searches it as a
phrase, and brings up around 80 results, mostly relevant.
Being more focused can sometimes help Eg. *Cold War "Berlin Blockade".* What did people call things then? Eg. Jack the Ripper "*Whitechapel Murders".* Broaden the search options, eg. *Russia* revolution* will search *Russia/Russian revolution.* The use of *
can also be useful for words which have numerous possible spellings.
Start with a broad search and then refine it. Below is an example:
Typing 'policing Northern Ireland' produces over 400 results. The 'Refine results' options can narrow this search, for example by 'Subject' and 'Date'. Look at the screenshot above to see how 'Your refinements' has been used to narrow a search from 400 to 40 results.
##
Stage 4: Preparation for your visit
Now that you have completed the stages above, you should have a clear research focus, and at least three references for documents you would like to view in the Reading Rooms. Please bring a list of the references you have found to the session. You may also be asked to briefly reflect on your experiences of searching for documents.
## Frequently Asked Questions:
Can students visit The National Archives without a teacher/adult?
Yes, students aged 16+ may independently visit The National Archives and register for a three-year Reader Ticket to access original documents. Students participating in a session delivered by Education staff must be accompanied by at least two adults, even if they are 18 years old. After the session, students may remain onsite and access public areas at The National Archives independently of teachers/adults.
How long will students have to conduct independent research? Teachers determine how long students have to conduct research, depending on the amount of time you allow after the session finishes. The session lasts one and a half hours, during which time students will have ordered three documents. Please note that it takes up to 40 minutes for documents to be delivered. You may also wish to consult our opening hours, and document ordering and reader registration times: Day Opening hours Document ordering and reader registration times

## Figures
## 1.0 Introduction
1.1
Protected Species Surveys was commissioned by Oldfield Design to conduct a building assessment survey of a single storey stone built extension with a lean-to slate tiled roof at Long Roods Farm, Ashford Lane, Ashford in the Water, Derbyshire with respect to roosting bats. The purpose of the survey was to determine the potential of the building to support roosting bats in support of a planning application for a single storey extension on the western elevation of the building to replace the existing pump room.
1.2
The location of the works affects a single storey stone built extension on the western elevation on the main farm house. The site is located off Ashford Lane, Ashford in the Water, Derbyshire (central grid reference SK 186 711) set within a rural location of the Derbyshire Peak District (see Figure 1). A mix of arable and grazing pasture surrounds the site on all aspects and the wider area. Monsal viaduct (SSSI) is present approximately 275m north-east with the River Wye (SSSI) 478m north-east.
## Site Proposals
1.3
The single storey extension (pump room) is to be demolished to facilitate a newly constructed single storey extension and conservatory (Figure 2).
## 2.0 Methodology Building Survey
2.1
The internal / external building assessment was carried out on 9th
September 2016 to search for potential bat access points and evidence of bat activity in accordance with Bat Surveys for Professional
Ecologists: Good Practice Guidelines (BCT, 2016)1.
2.2
A licensed bat worker from Protected Species Surveys (Natural England Licence
Number
2015-12339-CLS-CLS)
with
over
nine
years'
experience of bat work completed the building assessment of all buildings affected by the proposals within the site boundary.
2.3
Features such as small gaps under barge/soffit/fascia boards, raised or missing ridge tiles and gaps at gable ends, which have potential to be used as access points, were sought. Evidence that bats actively used potential access points includes staining within gaps and bat droppings or urine staining under gaps, a note being made wherever these were present. Where access to potential access points was possible a full inspection using an endoscope was completed to identify current or previous evidence of use such as the physical presence of bats or bat droppings. Indicators that potential access points had not recently been used included the presence of cobwebs and general detritus within the access. From this, features of likely / potential value for bats can be broadly identified and a decision made over the selection of locations for more detailed work if required.
## Birds
2.4
During the survey evidence of current or previous usage of the
building by other avifauna was also sought. Evidence sought included the presence of active or redundant nests in the buildings.
## 3.0 Results Building Survey
3.1
Building 1 (B1) was a single-storey stone built pump room with a leanto slate tiled roof (plate 1). This building adjoined the western aspect of the main farm house building. A stone wall bordered the northern aspect of the pump room. Potential bat access points were limited to occasional gaps between the roof tiles. No roof void or underfelt was present within the building. No external or internal evidence of use by bats was identified during the survey including use of endoscope. The building was considered to offer **negligible** potential to support roosting bats.
## Birds
3.2
During the building assessment no evidence of nesting birds was
observed. Therefore, the presence of nesting birds has been identified as a statutory constraint to the proposals.
## 4.0 Conclusion And Recommendations
4.1
The initial building assessment carried out on 9th September 2016
comprised an internal and external bat and breeding bird scoping survey of the small single storey stone built pump room adjoining the western aspect of the main farm house by a licensed ecologist. Potential bat access points/roosting features were limited to occasional gaps within the lean-to roof, further inspections were carried out using an endoscope. No evidence of roosting bats was observed during the building inspection. The small pump house was considered to offer negligible potential to support roosting bats.
4.2
From the results of the completed building assessment it has been concluded that bats are not a statutory ecological constraint to the proposed works.
4.3
In the event the proposed works have not commenced within 12 months of the nocturnal assessments, it is recommended that an updated building assessment is undertaken to determine the current status of the site in terms of bats.
4.4
In the unlikely event that evidence of bat occupation or live bats are discovered during any stage of works, all works must stop immediately and further advice should be sought from Protected Species Surveys.
## Birds
4.5
No evidence of nesting birds was identified during the building assessment. Therefore, the presence nesting birds are not a statutory constraint to the proposed operations.

## National Statistics Status
National Statistics status means that our statistics meet the highest standards of trustworthiness, quality and public value, and it is our responsibility to maintain compliance with these standards. The continued designation of these statistics as National Statistics was confirmed in March 2012 following an assessment by the UK Statistics Authority (now the Office for Statistics Regulation) against the Code of Practice for Statistics. Since the latest assessment of these statistics in 2012, we have made improvements including:
- Adding charts, to illustrate how the statistics have changed over time. - Expanding the release to include Woodland Carbon Code Statistics and
renaming the release to better reflect its content.
- Expanding the Annex to provide more detailed information on the data
used in the release.
## Introduction
This release contains provisional statistics for the year to March 2020 on:
- UK woodland area; - certified woodland area; - areas of new planting and publicly funded restocking; and - projects registered under the Woodland Carbon Code1.
These provisional statistics will be superseded on 24 September 2020 with the publication of final and more detailed results in *Forestry Statistics 2020*. Estimates for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland are included in addition to UK totals. Figures at March 2020 and for the period 2019-20 are published for the first time in this release. Some figures for earlier years have been revised from those previously released. For further details, see the Revisions section of the Annex.
## Please Refer To The Annex For A Glossary Of Terms Used In This Release.
In Scotland, forestry was fully devolved to Scottish Ministers on 1 April 2019. Two new agencies of the Scottish Government were created: Scottish Forestry to support the delivery of the Scottish Government's priorities for Scotland's forests through guidance, advice, incentives and regulations, and by advising ministers on forest policy; and Forestry and Land Scotland to manage national forests and land on behalf of Scottish Ministers.
## Key Findings
The main findings are:
- The area of woodland in the UK at 31 March 2020 is estimated to be 3.21
million hectares. This represents 13% of the total land area in the UK, 10% in England, 15% in Wales, 19% in Scotland and 9% in Northern Ireland.
- Of the total UK woodland area, 0.86 million hectares is owned or
managed by Forestry England2, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales or the Forest Service (in Northern Ireland).
- The total certified woodland area in the UK at 31 March 2020 is 1.39
million hectares, including all Forestry England/Forestry and Land Scotland/Welsh Government Woodland Estate/Forest Service woodland. Overall, 43% of the UK woodland area is certified.
- Around thirteen thousand hectares of newly created woodland were
reported in the UK in 2019-20.
- Around fifteen thousand hectares of publicly-funded woodland restocking
were reported in the UK in 2019-20.
- Woodland Carbon Code projects in the UK that were validated (including
those that were also verified) were predicted to sequester a total of 4.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide over their lifetime of up to 100 years3. This represents 3.8 million tonnes in Scotland, 711 thousand tonnes in England, 175 thousand tonnes in Wales and 11 thousand tonnes in Northern Ireland.
## Area Of Woodland
Woodland is defined in UK forestry statistics as land under stands of trees with a minimum area of 0.5 hectares and a canopy cover of at least 20% (25% in Northern Ireland), or having the potential to achieve this. The definition relates to land use, rather than land cover, so integral open space and felled areas that are awaiting restocking are included as woodland. Further information, including how this UK definition compares with the international definition of woodland, is provided in the Annex. Statistics on woodland area are used to inform government policy and resource allocation, to provide context to UK forestry and land management issues and are reported to international organisations. They are also used in the compilation of natural capital accounts. Increases in woodland area result from the creation of new woodland. This can be achieved through new planting or by natural colonisation of trees. Further information is available in the section on new planting. Decreases in woodland area result from the conversion of woodland to other land uses. Regulatory approval is usually required before trees can be felled. Felling approval will normally require the area to be restocked, but there are some cases in which trees may be permanently removed, generally for environmental reasons. The permanent removal of trees may also be authorised under planning regulations, to enable development. Most public sector woodland is owned and managed by Forestry England4 (FE), Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS), Natural Resources Wales (NRW) and the Forest Service (FS) in Northern Ireland. Other public sector woodland (e.g. owned by local authorities) is included with privately owned woodland as "private sector" in this release. The Natural Resources Wales woodland areas shown in this release relate to the Welsh Government Woodland Estate. There is approximately 900 hectares of woodland on National Nature Reserves and other land managed by Natural Resources Wales that is not included in the Natural Resources Wales figures. The area of woodland in the UK at 31 March 2020 is estimated to be 3.2 million hectares (Table 1). This represents 13% of the total land area in the UK, 10% in England, 15% in Wales, 19% in Scotland and 9% in Northern Ireland. 0.86 million hectares of woodland in the UK (27%) is owned or managed by Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales or the Forest Service (in Northern Ireland). Conifers account for around one half (51%) of the UK woodland area, although this proportion varies from 26% in England to 74% in Scotland.

1. Woodland areas for England, Wales and Scotland shown in this figure are based on data
from the National Forest Inventory. The trends shown take account of areas of new planting and identifiable permanent woodland loss. Areas of woodland loss that are not yet identifiable (e.g. conversion of woodland for the restoration of open habitats) are not accounted for. Further information on the National Forest Inventory is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/national-forest-inventory/.
## Area Of Certified Woodland
Certified woodland in the UK has been independently audited against the UK Woodland Assurance Standard. Forestry certification schemes are owned by international non-governmental organisations and exist to promote good forest practice. They offer product labels to demonstrate that wood or wood products come from well-managed forests. Figures for certified woodland areas are often used as an indicator of sustainable forest management. However, it should be noted that woodland that is not certified may also be managed sustainably. Most changes to the certified woodland area figures over time are a result of new areas being certified or certificates not being renewed upon expiry. Temporary changes can also occur if there is a time lag between expiry and renewal.
Table 2 shows the area of certified woodland. The total area of certified woodland in the UK at 31 March 2020 is 1.39 million hectares. This represents 43% of the total UK woodland area, 25% of the woodland area in England, 47% in Wales, 59% in Scotland and 55% in Northern Ireland.

3. Areas as at 31 March 2020. 4. All certified woodland in 2020 is certified under the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)
scheme or the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC) scheme, with
many woodlands certified under both schemes.
5. The estimates are based on UK data published by FSC and PEFC, supplemented by data
from individual certificates and other sources. Where possible, figures are for the woodland area certified, rather than the land area certified.
6. All Forestry England/Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural Resources Wales WGWE/Forest
Service woodland is certified. The Forestry England/Forestry and Land Scotland/ Welsh Government Woodland Estate /Forest Service areas are the latest areas, as shown in Table 1, rather than the areas shown on certificates.
Figure 2 presents certified woodland area by country since December 2001, with figures for earlier years revised for consistency with results from the National Forest Inventory. This shows an increase in certified woodland area of around 330 thousand hectares (31%) since December 2001. The 1.39 million hectares of certified woodland at March 2020 represents a 0.4% decrease on the previous year. Most of this decrease occurred in England and Scotland.

## New Planting
New planting is the creation of new areas of woodland by planting trees on land that was not previously woodland. The statistics presented here also include new woodland that is created by natural colonisation of trees (where known). Statistics on new planting are used to inform government policy and resource allocation and are used in producing annual estimates of woodland area. Table 3 shows the area of new woodland that was created in the year to 31 March 2020. The total area of new planting in the UK in 2019-20 was 13.46 thousand hectares. Conifers accounted for 56% of the total area of new planting. Most new planting (97%) took place on private sector land. 81% of the total new planting area took place in Scotland, 17% in England, 1% in Wales and 2% in Northern Ireland.

2. Private sector: all other woodland. Includes other publicly owned woodland (e.g. owned by
local authorities) and privately owned woodland.
3. Figures for grant-aided planting relate to areas for which grants were paid during the year. 4. Estimates for areas planted without grant aid are believed to be under-reported and, as a
result, the reported figures are likely to under-estimate the true level of planting activity.
For England, woodland planting funded by sources other than the Countryside Stewardship Woodland Creation Grant include planting supported by the Woodland Trust, by the Environment Agency, by Natural England and land acquired by the National Forest Company. For Scotland, a small amount of new planting without grant aid was included.
5. The planting season lies both sides of 31 March, and the weather can cause planting to be
advanced or delayed.
6. Includes woodland formed by natural colonisation (where known). 7. Figures are provisional.
Figure 3 shows areas of new planting by country since the year ending March 1976. Trends in new planting rates have been influenced by changes to the incentives available to land owners (in the form of grants) and the availability of land for planting. In the last 10 years, areas of new planting in the UK have ranged from under 6 thousand hectares to around 13 thousand hectares. At 13.46 thousand hectares in 2019-20, the current level of new planting represents a 1% decrease from the 13.54 thousand hectares achieved in the previous year.

## Publicly Funded Restocking
Restocking is the replacement of trees on areas of woodland that have been felled; this can be done either through replanting or natural regeneration. The statistics presented here include felled areas that have been restocked by both natural regeneration and replanting. As restocking takes place on woodland that has been previously harvested and it is a condition of most felling licences that the area is restocked, restocking rates are mainly driven by harvesting levels (with a time lag, often of around 2 years, between harvesting and restocking). Economic factors, including grant rates, may have some effect on species choice at restocking. In addition, the precise timing of restocking may be affected by weather conditions. This release only covers publicly funded restocking, that is:
- restocking of Forestry England/ Forestry and Land Scotland/ Natural
Resources Wales/ Forest Service Woodland and
- grant-aided restocking of private sector woodland.
Grant support for restocking in Scotland has been limited since 2008. The Forestry Grant Scheme was launched in Scotland in March 2015 and does include support for restocking in most but not all circumstances. As a result, grant-aided restocking does not represent all private sector restocking in Scotland. It is therefore likely that conifer restocking in Scotland in recent years is under-reported in this release and other statistics. Grant support in England is now provided by the Countryside Stewardship scheme, which opened for applications in early 2016. Funding for restocking under Countryside Stewardship is only available under limited circumstances (through the tree health grant). The restoration (and restocking with native species) of PAWS (plantations on ancient woodland sites) is also supported by the HS2 Woodland Fund. No estimate has been made for restocking in England that is no longer supported by grants and therefore restocking in England in recent years is under-reported in this release and other statistics. Table 4 shows the reported area of publicly funded restocking that took place in the year to 31 March 2020. As private sector figures are based on areas receiving grants for restocking, and restocking is not supported (or only supported in limited circumstances) by some grant schemes, these figures under-estimate the true level of restocking in the UK. In 2019-20, a total 14.83 thousand hectares of restocking was publicly funded. Conifers accounted for around four fifths (80%) of the total area of restocking. Most reported restocking (67%) took place on FE/FLS/NRW/FS land. Around two thirds of all publicly funded restocking (67%) took place in Scotland, 18% in England, 10% in Wales and the remaining 5% in Northern Ireland.

7. Figures are provisional.
Figure 4 shows reported areas of restocking by country since the year ending March 1976. It indicates an overall increase in restocking rates during the period. Over the same period, there has been a general increase in UK wood production (see www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/statistics-by-topic/timber-statistics/uk-wood-productionand-trade-provisional-figures/). The reported area of restocking fell significantly after a peak of 19 thousand hectares in 2006-07. This followed changes to grant support for restocking in Scotland, that resulted in some non-grant aided Sitka spruce restocking being excluded from the estimates. The chart shows a dip in the area of restocking in 2015-16, following changes to grant schemes across the UK. Reported restocking has continued to fall in England, where grant aid is now only available in very limited circumstances. The reported area of publicly funded restocking in the UK in 2019-20 represents a 4% decrease from the previous year. For further information, see the Data Sources and Methodology section of the Annex.

## Woodland Carbon Code
A total of 239 projects across the UK were validated at 31 March 2020 and are projected to sequester 4.7 million tonnes of carbon dioxide over their lifetime of up to 100 years (Table 5). This represents 3.8 million tonnes of carbon dioxide in Scotland, 711 thousand tonnes of carbon dioxide in England, 175 thousand tonnes in Wales and 11 thousand tonnes in Northern Ireland. A total of 363 projects were registered under the Woodland Carbon Code by the end of March 2020, covering around 15,000 hectares of woodland and projected to sequester 5.8 million tonnes of carbon dioxide over their lifetime.

Figure 5 shows projected carbon sequestration for all projects in the UK since March 2012. The data presented here represent net changes in projects (i.e. additions less deletions). Projects can be removed from the register if they do not meet the Code's standards, planned woodland creation projects do not go ahead, or the landowner no longer wishes to claim the carbon benefit of the project. There has been a 37% increase in projected carbon sequestration for validated projects (including those verified) in the latest year, from March 2019 to March 2020. Total projected carbon sequestration for all projects registered (including those awaiting validation) decreased by 6% in the year to March 2020 following a 7% increase recorded between March 2018 and March 2019. The overall decrease in projected carbon sequestration has occurred, despite a net increase in projects over the period, as the size of validated projects in England removed exceeded that of the projects added and the projected sequestration for some projects previously awaiting validation in Scotland have been validated at a lesser amount.

## Annex Introduction
This annex provides background information on the woodland area, planting, publicly funded restocking and woodland carbon code statistics presented in this release. It covers the data sources and methodology used to produce the statistics, information on quality measures and on any revisions to historic data and links to further information. Prior to 2019, these statistics were released in 2 separate releases:
- Woodland Area, Planting and Publicly Funded Restocking; and - Woodland Carbon Code Statistics (previously released on a quarterly
basis).
## Glossary
Broadleaves
Trees that do not have needles or cones, such as oak, birch and beech. A few, such as alder, have cone-like structures for their seeds which are not true cones.
Clearfell areas
Sites where all trees have been felled at once. In non-clearfell areas, only some of the trees are felled at any one time.
## Conifers Trees With Needles And Cones, Such As Spruce, Pine And Larch.
Coppice
Trees that are cut near ground level (or sometimes higher, in which case they are called pollards), causing them to produce many small shoots. These shoots are harvested every few years at a relatively early age for products such as staves, fencing, fuel and charcoal. "Coppice with standards" includes scattered trees that are left to grow as normal ("standards").
Establishment
The first five to ten years or formative period that ends once young trees are of sufficient size that, given adequate protection, they are likely to survive at the required stocking.
Forest
In the United Kingdom, there is no formal definition of "forest"; the term is often used for large woodland areas (especially conifers) or for old Royal hunting preserves such as the New Forest or the Forest of Dean.

Forest Service (FS)
The agency of the Northern Ireland Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs responsible for forestry matters in Northern Ireland.
Forestry and Land Scotland (FLS)
The Scottish Government agency responsible for managing the national forests and lands in Scotland. Prior to April 2019 it was managed by the Forestry Commission.
Forestry Commission (FC)
The government department responsible for forestry matters in England. The Forestry Commission's functions in Wales transferred to the Welsh Government and to Natural Resources Wales on 1 April 2013. The Forestry Commission's functions in Scotland transferred to Scottish Forestry and to Forestry and Land Scotland on 1 April 2019. The Forestry Commission is supported by two agencies; Forestry England and Forest Research.

Natural colonisation
The creation of new woodland by natural means, i.e. without sowing or planting.
Natural regeneration
The regeneration of existing woodland by natural means, i.e. without sowing or planting.
Natural Resources Wales (NRW)
The organisation responsible for advising the Welsh Government on the environment, created on 1 April 2013.
## New Planting Establishing Woodland On Ground That Was Not Woodland In The Recent Past. Nfi National Forest Inventory.
NIWT
1995-99 National Inventory of Woodland and Trees.
PEFC

Scottish Forestry also has responsibility for managing the UK Woodland Carbon Code on behalf of the Forestry Commission in England, the Welsh Government and the Northern Ireland Forest Service.
Tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e)
Emissions and sequestration can be presented as tonnes carbon or tonnes carbon dioxide (CO2) equivalent. To convert from tonnes CO2 to tonnes carbon multiply by 12/44.
## United Kingdom (Uk) Great Britain And Northern Ireland.
Validated The initial evaluation of a Woodland Carbon Code project or group against the requirements of the Woodland Carbon Code. Upon completion a project/group will receive a 'Validation Opinion Statement'. The project/group will then be certified for a period of up to 5 years.
Verified Verification is the evaluation of a Woodland Carbon Code project as it progresses to confirm the amount of CO2 sequestered to date as well as that it continues to meet the requirements of the Woodland Carbon Code.
Woodland Land under stands of trees with a minimum size of 0.5 hectares and a canopy cover of at least 20% (25% in Northern Ireland), or having the potential to achieve this, including integral open space, and including felled areas that are awaiting restocking.
## Data Sources And Methodology
Area of woodland The woodland areas in Great Britain at March 2019 provided in this release (see Figure 1) are based on the NFI provisional woodland area map of Great Britain at March 2019. The map is overlaid with a map of Forestry England and Forestry and Land Scotland land (in addition to land formerly owned/managed by Forestry Commission Wales), to enable a breakdown by ownership type to be estimated, and the figures derived from these maps are then updated to March 2020 by adding areas of new planting in 2019-20. Initial estimates of conifer stocked area and broadleaved stocked area at March 2012, derived from NFI interim field survey results, were used to estimate the breakdown by type of woodland. More information can be found on the Methodology and Outputs web page at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/methodology-and-outputs/. The provisional 2019 woodland map differs from the figures for woodland area provided in the NFI report on Tree cover outside woodland in Great Britain, that were based on the NFI 2013 map and the National Tree MapTM (NTMTM), the latter in combination with samples of visual aerial photograph interpretation and field sampling outside of areas on the NFI map. The estimates in the tree cover report include estimates of woodland area outside the NFI map derived from the other sources. Work is ongoing to calibrate the figures, and the NFI woodland map for 2019 incorporates amendments made to date as a result of the calibration (as well as additional areas of woodland creation since 2013). Further information on the methodology used by the National Forest Inventory and comparisons of results from the NFI and previous woodland area estimates is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/national-forest-inventory/. The annual NFI maps take account of changes since the previous map. These changes include new planting in the latest year, permanent observed woodland loss and other changes (e.g. arising from the work to calibrate the NFI map with the data from other sources that was used in the NFI report on Tree cover outside woodland in Great Britain). These revisions do not take account of woodland loss that may arise when woodland is converted to open habitats. In the time series presented in Figure 1, woodland area estimates for years before 2011 were revised from those originally published for consistency with results from the National Forest Inventory, to enable comparisons over time. The figures shown for Natural Resources Wales in this release only relate to woodland that was previously owned/managed by Forestry Commission Wales, and do not currently include estimates for other Natural Resources Wales woodland (previously owned/managed by the Countryside Council for Wales or the Environment Agency in Wales). Figures for Northern Ireland (Forest Service and non-Forest Service woodland) are provided by the Northern Ireland Forest Service. County breakdowns are available from the Forest Service Woodland Register at www.daerani.gov.uk/articles/forest-service-woodland-register.
Certified area Data on certified woodland areas are obtained from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC). Some of the certified woodland has dual certification, i.e. it is certified under both the FSC scheme and the PEFC scheme. The data collected from FSC are the areas that are certified for each certificate holder. Follow-up enquiries are then made with larger certificate holders to check the certified areas and to provide a country breakdown. As all Forestry England/Forestry and Land Scotland/Natural Resources Wales (Welsh Government Woodland Estate)/Forest Service woodland is certified, the areas used are those provided in Table 1, rather than the areas shown on the certificates.
New planting and restocking New planting is the creation of new areas of woodland. Restocking is the replanting of existing areas of woodland that have been felled. New planting can use planting/seeding or natural colonisation. Restocking can also use planting/seeding or natural regeneration. Information about Forestry England, Forestry and Land Scotland, Natural Resources Wales and Forest Service new planting and restocking comes from administrative systems. For new planting and restocking by Forestry and Land Scotland and by Natural Resources Wales, the figures obtained relate to net areas (i.e. excluding integral open space). These are converted to estimates of gross areas (i.e. including integral open space) for consistency with other planting and woodland area data, by using an assumption of 15% open space. Information about other woodland has come principally from grant schemes, including Countryside Stewardship in England, the English Woodland Grant Scheme (EWGS), Glastir in Wales, Better Woodlands for Wales (BWW), Forestry Grant Scheme in Scotland, Rural Development Contracts in Scotland, Scottish Forestry Grant Scheme (SFGS) and Woodland Grant Scheme (WGS). Areas receiving grant are allocated to years by date of payment. For natural colonisation and regeneration, the areas are generally those for which the second instalment of grant has been paid during the year. The second instalment is approved when woodland reaches a certain stage and density of growth, so this information corresponds approximately to the amount of new and restocked woodland created. The coverage and level of grant support differ across schemes, so that figures on grant-aided planting are not directly comparable between countries or over time. Grant support for restocking of conifers changed with the introduction of Rural Development Contracts in Scotland in 2008 and again with the introduction of the Forestry Grant Scheme in 2015. This will have led to a reduction in the proportion of private sector restocking that is grant aided and therefore reported for Scotland. New planting estimates for England also include areas supported by the Woodland Trust and areas funded by Natural England (Higher Level Stewardship / Countryside Stewardship). From 2016-17, the estimated area of new planting includes new woodland creation supported by the Woodland Trust under the MOREwoods and Partnerships England projects. From 2017- 18, the estimated area of new planting also includes new woodland creation supported by the Environment Agency. Areas of land acquired by the National Forest Company for new planting have been included from 2015-16. To avoid potential double counting, areas of new planting by the National Forest Company that are believed to be supported by grant aid or by the Woodland Trust (and have therefore already been included in the figures reported for these other sources) have been excluded. Local estimates for private sector areas of planting and restocking which are not grant-aided were included for England, Wales and Scotland up to 2009-10, where possible. Estimates of non-grant-aided planting and restocking were relatively small (less than one thousand hectares annually), and it has been assumed that all of this area is broadleaves. A small estimate for broadleaved new planting without grant aid in Scotland in 2016-17 to 2019-20 was also included. No estimates have been included for restocking with Sitka spruce in Scotland, or for restocking in England, that are no longer supported by grants. It is assumed that there is no non-FS non-grant aided new planting and restocking in Northern Ireland. The use of natural regeneration in non-clearfell systems may be increasing - particularly for broadleaves in England. These systems are not satisfactorily represented by measuring restocking area within any given year, and so broadleaf regeneration may be under-reported in this release and other statistics. Planting estimates for Wales in 2015-16 to 2018-19 have been revised following the addition of further grant schemes that had not been previously covered and revisions to the methodology for reporting on Rural Payments Wales data. Figures for Northern Ireland (Forest Service and private sector woodland) are provided by the Forest Service (www.daera-ni.gov.uk/topics/forestry). Further information on administrative sources can be found at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/administrative-sources/. The methodology and outputs relevant to UK woodland area, planting and restocking were reviewed in 2014. The review report is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/4425/mrwapr.pdf.
Woodland Carbon Code data Information about Woodland Carbon Code projects comes from the UK Woodland Carbon Registry, housed on the Markit Environmental Registry (www.markit.com/product/registry). The register is a live database and summary data are extracted on a quarterly basis. Further information on administrative sources can be found at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/administrative-sources/.
## Quality
The statistics on woodland area presented here refer to woodland as a land use rather than a land cover, so felled areas and newly planted areas are included within the definition of woodland. Some statistics on woodland area as a land cover are available from other sources (e.g. Countryside Survey 2007, www.countrysidesurvey.org.uk, and associated Land Cover Map; a more recent Land Cover Map 2015 is also available). Detailed information on the quality of the statistics presented in this publication is available in the Quality Report: Woodland Area, Planting and Restocking at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/documents/3182/qrwapr.pdf Further quality information on FC Official Statistics is available at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/about-ourstatistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-official-statistics/.
## Revisions
Figures at March 2020 and for 2019-20 are provisional and published for the first time in this release. Woodland area figures at March 2018 and at March 2019 have been revised from those provided in Forestry Statistics 2019 to take account of updates to the NFI woodland area map. This resulted in very small revisions to the woodland area estimates in England, Wales and Scotland (<0.1%) for each of these years. Revised woodland areas at March 2018 (obtained from the NFI final revised woodland area map of Great Britain at March 2018) and at March 2019 (obtained from the NFI provisional woodland area map of Great Britain at March 2019), are provided in the Excel tables accompanying this release. As the woodland area estimates are also used to estimate certified area for FE/FLS/NRW/FS woodland, the certified woodland area figures for 2018 and 2019 have also been revised, resulting in revisions of up to 0.1%. The revisions to planting data for Wales (see above) have resulted in changes of up to 150 hectares per year for new planting in 2015-16 to 2018-19 and up to 260 hectares per year for restocking over the same period. Other figures have not been revised from those previously published in Forestry Statistics 2019. Our revisions policy sets out how revisions and errors to these statistics are dealt with, and can be found at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/about-our-statistics/code-of-practice/quality-of-officialstatistics/.
## Further Information
Accompanying tables to this release, available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/woodland-statistics/, provide longer time series data by country for new planting and publicly funded restocking and for certified woodland. Further information on the National Forest Inventory is available at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/national-forest-inventory/. Additional woodland area statistics are available in Forestry Statistics 2019 (published September 2019) and Forestry Facts & Figures 2019 (published September 2019), and can be found at www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/forestry-statistics/. Figures in tables have been independently rounded, so may not add to the totals shown. Figures for woodland area in the UK are provided to international organisations; the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations (FAO) for the 5-yearly Global Forest Resources Assessment (www.fao.org/forestry/fra/en), and Forest Europe for the 4-yearly State of Europe's Forests (www.foresteurope.org/reporting_SFM). The Global Forest Resources Assessment 2020 Key Findings was released in May 2020 using UK data submitted in early 2019. Figures for woodland area and new planting are also used to compile the UK's Greenhouse Gas Inventory for the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) sector, submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC, unfccc.int/national_reports/annex_i_ghg_inventories/national_inventories_sub missions/items/8108.php). Statistics on UK greenhouse gas emissions are published by the Department of Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) at www.gov.uk/government/collections/uk-greenhouse-gas-emissionsstatistics. The international definition of forests differs slightly from the UK definition of woodland in terms of the minimum canopy cover threshold. For the UK, there is a requirement for canopy cover of at least 20%, whilst the international definition specifies a minimum of 10% canopy cover. Supplementary data are available in the accompanying spreadsheet at: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-and-resources/statistics/statistics-bytopic/woodland-statistics/. Further information on the Woodland Carbon Code is available at: www.woodlandcarboncode.org.uk/. More statistics on UK forests and climate change can be found in Forestry Statistics 2019: www.forestresearch.gov.uk/tools-andresources/statistics/forestry-statistics/.
## Release Schedule
Final results for (the year to) March 2020 will be published on 24 September 2020 in Forestry Statistics 2020 and Forestry Facts & Figures 2020. Provisional figures for (the year to) March 2021 will be published on 17 June 2021 in the 2021 Edition of this release. | en |

info@darwentarchitecture.co.uk Date: 16th February 2017 Peak District National Park Authority Aldern House, Baslow Road, Bakewell, Derbyshire DE45 1AE Client:
Adrian Woodhouse Site Address:
The Gables, Eaton Hill, Baslow, DE45 1SB
## Design And Access Statement
This application seeks to incorporate a double garage and a new bedroom into a two storey side extension to the existing property at The Gables, Eaton Hill. James Darwent Architecture have been commissioned to develop a scheme that sits harmoniously with the existing dwelling.
## Site And Location
The Gables is a detached property located in the village of Baslow, Derbyshire, which is situated on the River Derwent. Access to the property is gained via a shared lane off Eaton Hill. The majority of the existing building is obscured from Eaton Hill Road.
## Existing Property
The existing property is a two storey domestic dwelling with a single storey wing accommodating the main entrance and a narrow single garage to the south-east. A single storey porch is located on its side elevation, providing a secondary entrance to the property. The building is made from coursed gritstone walls and has concrete tiled roofs. The existing windows are timber sash with sandstone surrounds. The overall appearance is in-keeping with its neighbouring dwellings in style and form.
## Client Brief
As parking is currently tight at the property and with no provision to turn within the grounds, the client would like to develop a usable double garage and turning space to the side of the existing house. The roof space would be used as a guest bedroom as they currently have no spare room for visiting relatives.
## Planning History
A pre-planning application (ENQ 27001) was submitted to the Peak Park Planning Authority in order to gauge the viability of the initial proposals. Adam Maxwell confirmed on 13th July 2016 that the proposed extension would be considered to be acceptable in principle but advised the following amendments:
•
Simplifying the rear elevation by removing the dormer window
•
Simplify the roof plan to avoid recess to avoid first floor window
•
Potentially reduce overall width
•
Remove existing main house dormer if possible
This advice has been taken into account for the proposed scheme. Planners Over Marked Comments: The pre-planning application also looked to proposed a tractor shed in the house grounds. This application seeks approval of the house extension only.
## Proposed Scheme Terrace
We have taken on board comments made at pre-planning stage and incorporated as many of these suggestions into the design as possible.
The proposed ground floor plans include: •
A usable double garage with two timber garage doors
•
A secondary entrance to the property, accessed directly from the terrace
The Gables
Main House
•
A modest hallway closed off from the garage, with stairs to the first floor accommodation and access into the main house
The proposed first floor plans include: •
A double bedroom with views to the front of the property
•
An en-suite to serve the new bedroom
+
The width of the extension has been minimised as much as possible so that it retains 2no usable parking spaces with individual door garages as per Peak Park design guide preference along with space for a landing and stair access to the first floor.

## Proposed Scheme (Continued)
•
The proposed side extension aims to be viewed as subordinate to the main house. The ridge height and eaves height of the extension sit significantly lower than those of the main house. This gives visual prominence to the original building.
•
The roof line has been simplified since pre-planning stage to be a simple 1 1/2 storey gable which raises the existing porch eaves line by only approximately 100mm. To achieve this the garage floor level has been lowered by 200mm from existing garden level and the existing first floor bedroom window sill has been raised to maintain light to that room, without affecting the roof slope.
•
The dormer gable has been retained on the west but removed as advised on the east elevation to the drive side.
•
Materials have been selected to match the existing property, such as coursed gritstone walls and concrete roof tiles, in order for the new extension to sit harmoniously with the original house. Window proportions have also been designed to match the original house.

## Access
Pedestrian and vehicular access to the site will remain unchanged. The new double garage will provide sheltered accommodation for a further two cars.
## Impact On Neighbouring Dwellings/Buildings
Existing 2.5m high hedge planting to the south-west elevation of the property would obscure the majority of the new extension gable from view of neighbouring dwellings. The front elevation of the property faces onto agricultural fields and therefore would not affect neighbouring properties. Due to the modest scale of the extension and the absence of windows to the rear elevation, the overall impact on neighbouring properties is minimal if any.
## Environmental Impact
In keeping with Government directives on energy efficient homes, it is intended for proposed modifications to meet current building regulations for thermal performance.
## Drainage
Above ground drainage modified to provide drainage to new first floor bathroom. This will feed into the existing soil stack.

## Freedom Of Information Act 2000 Request Information Relating To Unsuccessful Prosecution Of Liam Allen Request Please Provide Me With The Following Information In Respect Of The Recent Unsuccessful London Rape Prosecutions Of Liam Allan (Who Was Charged With 12 Counts Of Rape And Sexual Assault) And Isaac Itiary (Who Was Charged With Rape Of A Child Under 16):
1. For each case, whether the incident which led to the prosecution remains classed
as a crime of rape?
2. For each case, whether the prosecution is now classed for statistically purposes
as being one which took place following a false allegation?
I ask the above questions in an attempt to ascertain whether following a failed prosecution for rape (in which there appears to be only one possible suspect) there is any attempt by the CPS to establish whether the relevant incident remains an undetected crime (i.e. the alleged crime was not proved) or whether the prosecution was based on a false allegation (meaning that there was in fact no crime committed).
If there is any relevant guidance or explanation that the CPS can provide on this point then I would be pleased to receive it. Response In relation to question one, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) monitoring of cases involving offences of rape involves the application of a rape 'flag' to applicable cases that are recorded on the CPS' electronic Case Management System (CMS). The CPS definition of rape covers any case where the following offences were considered pre-charge or were subsequently charged:
- Rape: Section 1 of the Sexual Offences Act 1956
- Sexual intercourse with a girl under the age of 13: Section 5 of the Sexual
Offences Act 1956
- Rape: Section 1 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003
- Rape of a child under 13: Section 5 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 - Sexual activity with a person with a mental disorder impeding choice: Section
30(3) of the Sexual Offences Act 2003
- An attempt to commit any of the above offences under the Criminal Attempts Act
1981
- Incitement or conspiracy to commit any of the above offences
The flag is applied from the onset of the case and will remain in place even if the charges are later amended or dropped. If a case commences under a different offence but during the prosecution a rape charge is preferred, the case is flagged at that stage. It is not possible to disaggregate figures to show separately the volume and outcome of proceedings for individual offences on the list. A single defendant may be charged with more than one offence. The data that is produced through the application of the flag is primarily used for monitoring performance on all cases that involve allegations or charges of rape. The data is accurate only to the extent that the flag has been correctly applied. In response to question two, CPS does not centrally capture data showing the number of cases that the CPS does not proceed with, because the allegation was subsequently found to be false. Please also note that a charge can only be brought if a prosecutor is satisfied that both stages of the Full Code test in the Code for Crown Prosecutors are met, that is, that there is sufficient evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction and that a prosecution is required in the public interest. All prosecutions are kept under continuous review and prosecutors are required to take account of any change in circumstances as the case develops.

(VAWG) Reports that include data on rape prosecutions. Please click on the link below to gain access to the 2016 to 2017 Report:

## Best Before And Use-By Dates
Understanding 'best before' and 'use-by' dates on food labels and how you must treat them differently. Food may contain bacteria and if stored for too long or at the wrong temperature, can cause food poisoning. So it's important to understand the different types of dates and advice on food packaging.
## Use-By Dates Are About Safety
A use-by date on food is about safety. This is the most important date to remember. Foods can be eaten until the use-by date but not after. You will see use-by dates on food that goes off quickly, such as meat products or ready-to-eat salads. For the use-by date to be a valid guide, you must carefully follow storage instructions. For example, if the instructions on the packaging tell you to refrigerate after opening, you should keep the food in a fridge at 5°C or below. Find out more about chilling your food correctly.
After the use-by date, don't eat it, cook it or freeze it. The food could be unsafe to eat or drink, even if it has been stored correctly and looks and smells fine. A lot of foods, including meat and milk, can be frozen before the use-by date though so plan ahead.
## Best Before Dates Are About Quality
The best before date, sometimes shown as BBE (best before end), is about quality and not safety. The food will be safe to eat after this date but may not be at its best. Its flavour and texture might not be as good. Best before dates appear on a wide range of foods including:
frozen foods dried foods tinned foods The best before date will only be accurate if the food is stored according to the instructions on the packaging.
There is more guidance on WRAP's website for best before and use-by dates.
## Charity Food Banks
If you are supplying people with packaged food from a food bank, you still need to check and follow the use-by dates. Giving out food after its 'use-by' date puts people at risk, and could lead to enforcement action being taken against the food bank.
## Plan Your Meals Ahead
Get into the habit of checking what you already have in the fridge and freezer before you go shopping. Look out for foods that are approaching their use-by date and other fresh foods that can go off over time and try to use them up first. This includes:
fruit and vegetables meat and fish cheese, milk or other dairy products
## Don'T Trust The Sniff Test
Food can look and smell fine even after its use-by date, but that doesn't mean it's safe to eat. It could still be contaminated.
You cannot see, smell or taste the bacteria that cause food poisoning.
## Freeze And Defrost Your Food Correctly
Food properly frozen won't deteriorate and bacteria cannot grow in it, so when frozen it can't become more unsafe. Once defrosted however, the pause button is off. Only defrost food as you need it and eat it within 24 hours. Find out more about freezing and defrosting food. Once food has been defrosted, use it within 24 hours and cook it until steaming hot before serving.
Check packet instructions to ensure that foods are suitable for freezing, especially for Ready-To-
Eat foods. Take a look at Love Food Hate Waste for more information, including recipe ideas for leftovers.

## Preface
Reliable and comparable international statistics can be produced and made available to business, financial institutions, governments and all other operators in the international market only if based on common statistical standards.
NACE is the "statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community"1 and is the subject of legislation at the European Union level2, which imposes the use of the classification uniformly within all the Member States.
It is a basic element of the international integrated system of economic classifications, which is based on classifications of the UN Statistical Commission (UNSTAT), Eurostat as well as national classifications; all of them strongly related each to the others, allowing the comparability of economic statistics produced worldwide by different institutions. The present NACE Rev. 2, which is the new revised version of the NACE Rev. 1 and of its minor update NACE Rev. 1.1, is the outcome of a major revision work of the international integrated system of economic classifications which took place between 2000 and 2007. NACE Rev. 2 reflects the technological developments and structural changes of the economy, enabling the modernisation of the Community statistics and contributing, through more comparable and relevant data, to better economic governance at both Community and national level. Development of NACE Rev. 2 has benefited from the work preparing the fourth revision of the United Nations' International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC Rev. 4). Representatives from Eurostat and Member States of the EU played an important role in this work. NACE Rev. 2 has been created based on ISIC Rev. 4 and adapted to the European circumstances by a working group of experts on statistical classifications from the Member States, candidate Countries as well as EFTA Countries, with the support and guidance of the classification section at Eurostat. Beside the classification, this publication contains also the introductory guidelines containing the main concepts, an historical background and the methodological guidelines for understanding and applying NACE Rev. 2 as well as a detailed description of the different items of the classification.

## Nace: Introduction And Background Nace Introductory Guidelines
NACE: Introduction and background NACE: Introduction and background chapter 1
1.1 NACE and the integrated system of classifications of economic activities and
products
1.
NACE is the acronym3 used to designate the various statistical classifications of economic activities developed since
1970 in the European Union. NACE provides the framework for collecting and presenting a large range of statistical data according to economic activity in the fields of economic statistics (e.g. production, employment, national accounts) and in other statistical domains.
2.
Statistics produced on the basis of NACE are comparable at European and, in general, at world level. The use of NACE is mandatory within the European Statistical System.
The international system of economic classifications
3.
The comparability at world level of statistics produced on the basis of NACE is due to the fact that NACE is part of an integrated system of statistical classifications, developed mainly under the auspices of the United Nations Statistical Division. From the European point of view, this system can be represented as follows:

Where:
n ISIC4 is the United Nations' International Standard Industrial Classification of all Economic Activities. n CPC5 is the United Nations' Central Product Classification. n HS6 is the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System, managed by the World Customs Organisation.
n CPA7 is the European Classification of Products by Activity. n Prodcom8 is the classification of goods used for statistics on industrial production in the EU. n CN9 stands for the Combined Nomenclature, a European classification of goods used for foreign trade
statistics.
4.
Such an integrated system allows the comparability of statistics produced in different statistical domains. As a consequence, for instance, statistics on the production of goods (reported in the EU according to Prodcom surveys) could be compared with statistics on trade (in the EU produced according to CN). More details on the system and its components are provided in Chapter 4.
5.
NACE is derived from ISIC, in the sense that it is more detailed than ISIC. ISIC and NACE have exactly the same items at the highest levels, where NACE is more detailed at lower levels.
6.
In order to ensure international comparability, the definitions and the guidelines established for use of NACE within the EU are consistent with those published in the introduction to ISIC.
## 1.2 Nace: Scope And Characteristics Statistical Classifications
7.
All observations that are to be described in terms of statistics require systematic classification. Classifications partition the universe of statistical observations according to sets that are as homogeneous as possible with respect to the
characteristics of the object of the statistical survey.
8.
Statistical classifications are characterised by: a.
exhaustive coverage of the observed universe;
b.
mutually exclusive categories: each element should be classified in only one category of the classification;
c.
methodological principles which allow the consistent allocation of the elements to the various categories of the classification.
9.
More specifically, hierarchical classifications are characterised by a finer and finer partition of categories, which makes it possible to collect and present the information at various levels of aggregation.
## Nace As The Eu Classification Of Economic Activities
10.
NACE is the European standard classification of productive economic activities. NACE presents the universe of economic activities partitioned in such a way that a NACE code can be associated with a statistical unit carrying them out.
11.
An economic activity takes place when resources such as capital goods, labour, manufacturing techniques or intermediary products are combined to produce specific goods or services. Thus, an economic activity is characterised by an input of resources, a production process and an output of products (goods or services).
12.
An activity as defined here may consist of one simple process (for example weaving), but may also cover a whole range of sub‑processes, each mentioned in different categories of the classification (for example, the manufacturing
of a car consists of specific activities such as casting, forging, welding, assembling, painting, etc.). If the production process is organised as an integrated series of elementary activities within the same statistical unit, the whole combination is regarded as one activity.
13.
NACE does not *per se* provide categories for specific types of statistical units: units may perform several economic
activities, and can be defined in different ways according to specific characteristics (related e.g. to location, see the section on "statistical units" below).
## Scope And Limitations Of Nace
14.
NACE does not draw distinctions according to the kind of ownership of a production unit or its type of legal organisation or mode of operation, because such criteria do not relate to the characteristics of the activity itself. Units engaged in the same kind of economic activity are classified in the same category of NACE, irrespective of whether they are (part of) incorporated enterprises, individual proprietors or government, whether or not the parent enterprise is a foreign entity and whether or not the unit consists of more than one establishment. Therefore, there is no link between NACE and the Classification of Institutional Units in the System of National Accounts (SNA) or in the European System of Accounts (ESA).
15.
The manufacturing activities are described independently of whether the work is performed by power‑driven machinery or by hand, or whether it is done in a factory or in a household. Modern versus traditional is not a criterion for NACE.
16.
NACE does not distinguish between formal and informal or between legal and illegal production. Classifications
according to kind of legal ownership, kind of organisation or mode of operation may be constructed independently. Cross‑classification with NACE could provide useful extra information.
17.
In general, NACE does not differentiate between market and non‑market activities, as defined in the SNA/ESA, even if this distinction is an important feature of the SNA/ESA. A breakdown of economic activities according to this principle is useful in any case where data are collected for activities that take place on both a market and a non‑market basis. This criterion should then be cross‑classified with the categories of NACE. Non‑market services
in NACE are only provided by government organisations or non‑profit institutions serving households, mostly in the field of education, health, social work, etc.
18.
NACE includes categories for the undifferentiated production of goods and services by households for their own use. These categories may refer, however, to only a portion of households' economic activities, as clearly identifiable household activities are classified in other parts of NACE.
## Structure And Coding Of Nace
19.
NACE consists of a hierarchical structure (as established in the NACE Regulation), the introductory guidelines and the explanatory notes. The structure of NACE is described in the NACE Regulation as follows: i.
a first level consisting of headings identified by an alphabetical code (sections),
ii.
a second level consisting of headings identified by a two-digit numerical code (divisions),
iii.
a third level consisting of headings identified by a three-digit numerical code (groups),
iv.
a fourth level consisting of headings identified by a four-digit numerical code (classes).
The code for the section level is not integrated in the NACE code that identifies the division, the group and the class describing a specific activity. For example, the activity "Manufacture of glues" is identified by the code 20.52, where 20 is the code for the division, 20.5 is the code for the group and 20.52 is the code of the class; section C, to which this class belongs, does not appear in the code itself.
20. The divisions are coded consecutively. However, some "gaps" have been provided to allow the introduction of additional divisions without a complete change of the NACE coding. These gaps have been introduced in sections that are most likely to prompt the need for additional divisions. For this purpose, the following division code numbers have been left unused in NACE Rev. 2: 04, 34, 40, 44, 48, 54, 57, 67, 76, 83 and 89.
21.
In cases where a given level of the classification is not divided further down in the classification, "0" is used in the code position for the next more detailed level. For example, the code for the class "Veterinary activities" is 75.00 because the division "Veterinary activities" (code 75) is divided neither into groups nor into classes. The class "Manufacture of beer" is coded as 11.05 since the division "Manufacture of beverages" (code 11) is not divided into several
groups but the group "Manufacture of beverages" (code 11.0) is divided into classes.
22.
Whenever possible, residual groups or classes of the type "others" and/or "n.e.c. (not elsewhere classified)" are characterised by the digit 9 (for instance group 08.9 "Mining and quarrying n.e.c." and class 08.99 "Other mining and quarrying n.e.c.").
## 1.3 Nace: Historical Background And Legal Context
From NICE to NACE Rev. 2
23.
Between 1961 and 1963, the "Nomenclature des industries établies dans les Communautés européennes" (NICE)
(Classification of Industries Established in the European Communities) was developed. The original (1961) version had broad divisions with entries down to 3 digits. The revised (1963) version had more detailed subdivisions. NICE covered extractive, energy-producing and manufacturing industries and construction.
24.
In 1965, the "Nomenclature du commerce dans la CEE" (NCE) (Classification of Trade and Commerce in the European Communities) was developed to cover all commercial activities.
25.
In 1967, a classification for services was developed, followed by one for agriculture, both in broad divisions.
26.
In 1970, the "Nomenclature générale des activités économiques dans les Communautés Européennes" (NACE - General Industrial Classification of Economic Activities within the European Communities) was developed. As its name implies, it was a classification covering the whole range of economic activity.
27.
This first version of NACE suffered from two major drawbacks:
n
As it had not been established as part of the Community legislation, data were often collected according to the existing national classifications and then transformed into the NACE format by means of conversion keys, which did not produce satisfactorily comparable data;
n
As NACE Rev. 1970 had not been developed within a recognised international framework, it offered poor comparability with other international classifications of economic activities.
28.
It was then decided to consider alignment of NACE with the international standards. Through a joint United Nations Statistical Office/Eurostat working group, Eurostat and representatives of the EU Member States were closely involved in the third revision of the International Standard Industrial Classification of All Economic Activities (ISIC Rev. 3), which was adopted by the United Nations Statistical Commission in February 1989.
29.
Subsequently, a working group promoted by Eurostat with representatives of Member States developed a revised version of NACE, called NACE Rev. 1. Starting from the structure of ISIC Rev. 3, details were added to reflect European activities that were inadequately represented in ISIC. NACE Rev. 1 was established by Council Regulation No 3037/90 of 9 October 1990.
30.
In 2002, a minor update of NACE Rev. 1, called NACE Rev. 1.1, was established. NACE Rev. 1.1 introduced a few additional items and changes to some titles. The aim of the update was to reflect:
n
New activities which did not exist when NACE Rev. 1 was developed (e.g. call centres).
n
Activities which had manifestly grown in importance since NACE Rev. 1 was developed, due to either technological or organisational changes.
n
Correction of errors in NACE Rev. 1.
31.
In 2002, the activities for revising NACE started. The Regulation establishing NACE Rev. 2 was adopted in December 2006, and its text is presented in Annex II. It includes provisions for the implementation of NACE Rev. 2 and coordinated transition from NACE Rev. 1.1 to NACE Rev. 2 in various statistical domains. NACE Rev. 2 is to be used, in general, for statistics referring to economic activities performed from 1 January 2008 onwards (Article 8 of the NACE Regulation provides details on implementation).
## The Nace Regulations: Main Features
32. Member States and the Commission established that the use of NACE should be mandatory in the EU. Therefore, the regulations establishing NACE include provisions for that. Statistics collected by EU Member States involving classification by economic activity must be compiled according to NACE or a national classification derived from it.
33.
The NACE Regulations allow Member States to use a national version derived from NACE for national purposes. Such national versions must, however, fit into the structural and hierarchical framework of NACE. Most of the Member States have developed national versions, usually by adding a 5th digit for national purposes.
34.
The Commission and a Committee of representatives of Member States (the SPC) are responsible for monitoring implementation of the Regulation, making minor amendments (for example to reflect technological change) and liaising with international organisations concerned with classifications of economic activities.
## 1.4 The Revisions Of Nace
35.
Changes in economic structures and organisations, as well as technological developments, give rise to new activities and products, which may supersede existing activities and products. Such changes imply a constant challenge for the compilation of statistical classifications. The intervals between revisions must not be too long, since the relevance
of the classification diminishes with time, nor must they be too short, since otherwise the comparability of the data over time is adversely affected. Any revision of a classification, particularly if it includes structural changes, leads to breaks in the time series.
36.
A major revision of international and European classifications of economic activities and products, known as "Operation 2007", took place between 2000 and 2007. The revision concerned all the classifications of the integrated system of economic classifications, as described in section 1.1. The main criteria driving the revision were:
n relevance to the actual world economy, n better comparability with other national and international classifications and n continuity with their previous versions.
Several consultations have been organised since 2002, with all stakeholders, including Commission departments and National statistical institutes, as well as European business and trade associations, asking for proposals and modifications of NACE Rev. 1.1.
37.
The overall characteristics of NACE remained unchanged. NACE Rev. 2 strikes a balance between the level of detail requested by the main users and the workload in the statistical institutes.
38.
Details on the main changes from NACE Rev. 1.1 to NACE Rev. 2 are presented in Chapter 5.
# Nace: Definitions And Principles Chapter 2
## 2.1 Criteria Adopted For Developing Nace
39.
The criteria used to define and delineate classification categories at any level depend on many factors, such as potential use of the classification and availability of data. These criteria are applied differently at different levels of the classification: the criteria for detailed levels of the aggregation consider similarities in the actual production process, while this is largely irrelevant at more aggregated levels of the classification.
## Criteria For Classes
40.
The criteria concerning the manner in which activities are combined in, and allocated among, production units are central in the definition of classes (most detailed categories) of NACE. They are intended to ensure that the classes of NACE will be relevant for the detailed industrial classification of units and that the units falling into each class will
be as similar, in respect of the activities in which they engage, as is feasible.
41.
NACE Rev. 2, reflecting the fourth revision of ISIC, generally gives more importance to the production process in the definition of individual classes. This means that activities are grouped together when they share a common process for producing goods or services, using similar technologies.
42.
In addition, the classes of NACE are defined so that the following two conditions are fulfilled whenever possible: a.
The production of the category of goods and services that characterises a given class accounts for the bulk of the output of the units classified according to that class;
b.
The class contains the units that produce most of the category of goods and services that characterise it.
43. Another major consideration in defining classes in NACE is the relative importance of the activities to be included.
In general, separate classes are provided for activities that are prevalent in most EU countries, or that are of particular importance in the world economy. To attain international comparability, certain classes have been introduced in the structures of ISIC and, therefore, included in NACE.
## Criteria For Groups And Divisions
44.
Unlike for classes, the actual production process and technology used in production activities become less important as a criterion for grouping them at more aggregated levels. At the highest level (sections), the general characteristics of the goods and services produced, as well as the potential use of the statistics, for instance in the SNA and
ESA framework, become an important factor.
45.
The main criteria applied in delineating groups and divisions of NACE concern the following characteristics of the activities of production units:
n the character of the goods and services produced, n the uses to which the goods and services are put and n the inputs, the process and the technology of production.
46.
In the case of the character of the goods and services produced, account is taken of the physical composition and stage of fabrication of the items and the needs served by them. Distinguishing categories of NACE in terms of the nature of goods and services produced provides the basis for grouping production units according to similarities in, and links between, the raw materials consumed and the sources of demand and markets for the items.
47.
The weight assigned to the criteria described above varies from one category to another. In a number of instances (for example food manufacturing, the textile, clothing and leather industries, machinery and equipment manufacturing, as well as the service industries) the three specific aspects are so closely related that the problem of assigning weights to the criteria does not arise. In the case of intermediate products, the physical composition, as well as the stage of fabrication of the items, were often given the greatest weight. In the case of goods with complicated production processes, the end use, the technology and the organisation of production of the items are frequently given priority over the physical composition of the goods.
## 2.2 Principal, Secondary And Ancillary Activities
48.
A unit may perform one or more economic activities described in one or more categories of NACE.
49.
The principal activity of a statistical unit is the activity which contributes most to the total value added of that unit. The principal activity is identified according to the top-down method (see section 3.1) and does not necessarily account for 50% or more of the unit's total value added.
50.
A secondary activity is any other activity of the unit, whose outputs are goods or services which are suitable for delivery to third parties. The value added of a secondary activity must be less than that of the principal activity.
51.
A distinction should be made between principal and secondary activities, on the one hand, and ancillary activities, on the other. Principal and secondary activities are generally carried out with the support of a number of ancillary
activities, such as accounting, transportation, storage, purchasing, sales promotion, repair and maintenance, etc. Thus, ancillary activities are those that exist solely to support the principal or secondary economic activities of a unit, by providing goods or services for the use of that unit only.
52.
An activity is ancillary if it fulfils all the following conditions: a.
it serves only the unit or units referred to;
b.
the inputs contribute to the costs of the unit;
c.
the outputs (usually services, seldom goods) are not part of the unit's final product and do not generate gross fixed capital formation;
d.
a comparable activity on a similar scale is performed in similar production units.
53.
For instance the following are not to be regarded as ancillary activities: a.
production of goods and services that are part of capital formation; for example, construction work for own account, which would be classified separately from construction if data are available, and software production;
b.
production of outputs, a significant part of which is sold on the market, even if part of it is consumed in connection with the principal activities;
c.
production of goods or services which subsequently become an integral part of the output of the principal or
secondary activity (e.g. production of boxes by a department of an enterprise for packing its products);
d.
production of energy (an integrated power station or coking plant), even if the whole output is consumed by the parent unit;
e.
purchase of goods for resale in an unaltered state;
f.
research and development, as these activities do not provide a service that is consumed in the course of current production.
54.
In all these cases, where separate data are available, separate units should be distinguished and recognised as kindof-activity units (see next section) and then classified according to their activity.
## 2.3 Definitions Of Statistical Units
55.
In order to draw a complete statistical picture of the economy, a wide range of information is required, and the organisational level at which it is feasible to collect the information varies depending on the type of data. For example, profits data for a company may be available from only one geographically central location referring to several different locations, whereas product sales data may be available for each of the separate locations. To observe and analyse the data satisfactorily, it is therefore necessary to define a system of statistical units. These form the reference building blocks in respect of which data can be collected and classified according to NACE.
56.
Different types of statistical units meet different needs, but each unit is a specific entity, which is defined in such a
way that it can be recognised and identified and not confused with any other unit. It may be an identifiable legal or physical entity or, as for example in the case of the unit of homogeneous production, a statistical construct.
57.
The following are the units that are described in the Council Regulation on statistical units10:
a.
the enterprise group;
b.
the enterprise;
c.
the kind-of-activity unit (KAU);
d.
the local unit;
e.
the local kind-of-activity unit (local KAU);
f.
the institutional unit;
g.
the unit of homogeneous production (UHP);
h.
the local unit of homogeneous production (local UHP).
The relationship between the different types of statistical units is illustrated in the following table:
| One or more locations | A single location |
|-------------------------|---------------------|
| One or more activities | |
| Enterprise | Local unit |
| Institutional unit | |
| One single activity | |
| KAU | Local KAU |
| UHP | Local UHP |
The system of administrative and statistical units can be illustrated as follows:
# Classification Rules For Activities And Units Chapter 3
## 3.1 Basic Classification Rules
58.
One NACE code is assigned to each unit recorded in statistical business registers11, according to its principal economic activity. The principal activity is the activity which contributes most to the value added of the unit. The assignment of the NACE code is helped by: the explanatory notes of NACE, decisions taken by the NACE management committee, correspondence tables and reference to other classification systems such as the ISIC, CPA, HS, CN, etc.
59.
In the simple case where a unit performs only one economic activity, the principal activity of that unit is determined by the NACE category which describes that activity. If the unit performs several economic activities (other than ancillary activities, cfr. section 2.2), the principal activity is determined on the basis of the value added associated to each activity, according to the rules presented below.
60.
Value added is the basic concept for determining the classification of a unit according to economic activities. The
gross value added is defined as the difference between output and intermediate consumption. Value added is an additive measure of the contribution of each economic unit to gross domestic product (GDP).
## Value-Added Substitutes
61.
In order to determine the principal activity of a unit, the activities carried out by the unit and the corresponding share of value added have to be known. Sometimes it is not possible to obtain the information on value added associated with the different activities carried out, and the activity classification has to be determined by using substitute criteria. Such criteria could be: a.
Substitutes based on output:
- gross output of the unit that is attributable to the goods or services associated with each activity;
- value of sales or turnover of those groups of products falling within each activity;
b.
Substitutes based on input:
- wages and salaries attributable to the different activities (or income of self-employed);
- number of staff involved in the different economic activities of the unit;
- time worked by staff attributable to the different activities of the unit.
62.
Such substitute criteria should be used as proxies for the unknown value-added data, to obtain the best approximation possible to the result which would have been obtained on the basis of the value-added data. The use of substitute criteria does not change the methods used to determine the principal activity, as they are only operational approximations of value-added data.
63.
However, simple use of the substitute criteria listed above may be misleading. This will always be the case when the
structure of the substitute criteria is not directly proportional to the (unknown) value added.
64.
When using sales (turnover) as a proxy for value added, it should be taken into account that in certain cases turnover and value added are not proportional. For example, turnover in trade usually has a much lower share of value added than turnover in manufacturing. Even within manufacturing the relation between sales and the resulting value added may vary between and within activities. For some activities turnover is defined in a specific way which makes comparison with other activities not useful, e.g. financial intermediation activities or insurance activities. The same considerations should be borne in mind when using gross output data as substitute criteria.
65.
Many units perform trade and other activities. In such cases trade turnover figures are the most unsuitable indicators for the unknown value added share of the trade activity. A much better indicator is the gross margin (difference between the trade turnover and purchases of goods for resale adjusted by changes in stocks). However, the trade margins may vary within a single wholesale and retail trade and also between trade activities. In addition, consideration must be given to the specific classification rules for trade as set out in section 3.4.
66.
Similar precautions have to be considered when input-based substitute criteria are applied. The proportionality between wages and salaries or employment, on the one hand, and value added on the other is not reliable if the labour intensity of the various activities is different. Labour intensity may vary substantially between different economic activities and also between activities of the same NACE class. Example: production of a good by hand vs. production of a good using a mechanised process.
## 3.2 Multiple And Integrated Activities
67.
Instances may arise where considerable proportions of the activities of a unit are included in more than one class of NACE. These cases may result from the vertical integration of activities (for example, tree felling combined with sawmilling, or activities in a clay pit combined with brick-works), or the horizontal integration of activities (for
example, manufacture of bakery products combined with manufacture of chocolate confectionery), or any combination of activities within a statistical unit. In these situations, the unit should be classified according to the rules set out in this section.
68.
If a unit performs activities falling in only two different NACE categories, there will always be one activity that accounts for more than 50% of value added, except in the highly unlikely case that both activities in the different categories have equal shares of 50%. The activity that represents more than 50% of the value added is the principal activity and determines the NACE Rev. 2 classification of the unit.
69.
In the complex case where a unit performs more than two activities falling into more than two different NACE categories, with none of them accounting for more than 50% of value added, the activity classification of that unit has to be determined by using the "top-down" method, as described below.
## The Top-Down Method
70.
The top-down method follows a hierarchical principle: the classification of a unit at the lowest level of the classification must be consistent with the classification of the unit at the higher levels of the structure. To satisfy this condition the process starts with identification of the relevant highest level and progresses down through the levels of the classification in the following way: a.
Identify the section which has the highest share of the value added.
b.
Within this section identify the division which has the highest share of the value added.
c.
Within this division identify the group which has the highest share of the valued added.
d.
Within this group identify the class which has the highest share of value added.
## 71. Example: A Unit Carries Out The Following Activities (Shares In Terms Of Value Added):
| Section | Division | Group | Class | Description of the class | Share |
|-----------|--------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------|
| C | 25 | 25.9 | 25.91 | Manufacture of steel drums and similar containers | 10% |
| 28 | 28.1 | 28.11 | Manufacture of engines and turbines, except aircraft, vehicle and cycle engines | 6% | |
| 28.2 | 28.24 | Manufacture of power-driven hand tools | 5% | | |
| 28.9 | 28.93 | Manufacture of machinery for food, beverages and tobacco processing | 23% | | |
| 28.95 | Manufacture of machinery for paper and paperboard production | 8% | | | |
| G | 46 | 46.1 | 46.14 | Agents involved in the sale of machinery, industrial equipment, ships and aircraft | 7% |
| 46.6 | 46.61 | Wholesale of agricultural machinery, equipment and supplies | 28% | | |
| M | 71 | 71.1 | 71.12 | Engineering activities and related technical consultancy | 13% |

Therefore the correct class is 28.93 Manufacture of machinery for food, beverages and tobacco processing, although the class with the biggest share of value added is class: 46.61 Wholesale of agricultural machinery, equipment and supplies. The following picture represents the decision path followed in the example.

72.
Because of the difficulties between ISIC and NACE at group and class levels, the application of the top-down method to NACE may give allocations different from those which would be obtained applying the method to ISIC. If possible, the method should be followed first in terms of ISIC, identifying the ISIC class, and then in terms of NACE. This would ensure alignment with world classifications.
73.
When applied to section G "Wholesale and retail trade", a specific adaptation of the top-down method is required. See paragraphs 93-99 below for details.
## Changes Of The Principal Activity Of The Unit
74.
Units may change their principal activity, either at once or gradually over a period of time, either because of seasonal factors or because of a management decision to vary the pattern of output. While all these cases call for the classification of the unit to be changed, too frequent changes could result in inconsistencies between short-term (monthly and quarterly) and longer-term statistics, making their interpretation extremely difficult.
75.
Whenever a unit performs two activities both contributing to around 50% of the value added, a stability rule has been established in order to avoid frequent changes not reflecting a substantial change in the economic reality. According to this rule, the change of principal activity should be made when the current one has been accounting for less than 50% of the value added for at least two years.
## Treatment Of Vertically Integrated Activities
76.
Vertical integration of activities occurs where the different stages of production are carried out in succession by the same unit and where the output of one process serves as input to the next. Examples of common vertical integration include tree felling and subsequent sawmilling, a clay pit combined with brickworks, or production of apparel in a textile mill.
77.
When applying NACE Rev. 2, vertical integration should be treated like any other form of multiple activities, i.e. the principal activity of the unit is the activity accounting for the largest share of value added, as determined according to the top-down method. This treatment has changed from previous versions of NACE. For vertical integration of specific situations in agriculture, see paragraph 92.
78.
If value added or substitutes cannot be determined for the individual steps in a vertically integrated process directly from accounts compiled by the unit itself, comparisons with similar units could be used. Alternatively, valuation of intermediate or final products could be based on market prices.
## Treatment Of Horizontally Integrated Activities
79.
Horizontal integration of activities occurs when activities are carried out simultaneously using the same factors of production. The principle of value added has to be applied, following the top-down method, and the same precautions for using substitutes as listed above apply here.
## 3.3 Rules For Specific Activities Activities Undertaken On A Fee Or Contract Basis And Outsourcing Of Activities
80.
This section contains outsourcing rules for selected areas. For a complete set of outsourcing rules, see annex II of this publication. a.
Principal = Unit that enters into a contractual relationship with another unit (> *contractor*) for that other unit to
carry out specific tasks, such as parts of a production process or even the full production process, employment services or support functions.
b.
Contractor = Unit that carries out specific tasks, such as parts of a production process or even the full production process, employment services or support functions on a contractual relationship with a > *principal*. The term *sub-contractor* is also used. In NACE the activities performed by the > *contractor* are denominated "on a fee
or contract basis"
.
c.
Outsourcing = Contractual agreement according to which the > *principal* requires the > *contractor* to carry out
specific tasks, such as parts of a production process or even the full production process, employment services or support functions.
The term outsourcing is also valid if the > *contractor* is a subsidiary unit and if the tasks are carried out on
market conditions or not.
Examples of parts of the production process that can be outsourced are: manufacturing activities, employment services, support functions, etc.
The > *principal* and the > *contractor* may be located within the same economic territory or in different economic territories. The actual location does not affect the classification of either one of these unit.
81.
Contractors, i.e. units carrying out an activity on a fee or contract basis, are usually classified with units producing the same goods or services for their own account, except in trade (see paragraphs 93-99 below and explanatory notes to Section G) and in construction (in the case of outsourcing of construction activities, the principal should be classified in 41.10 and the contractor in 41.20).
82.
In manufacturing, the principal provides the contractor with the technical specifications for the manufacturing activity to be carried out on the input material. The input material (raw or intermediate good) can either be provided
(owned) by the principal or not. Examples of such activities are: metal manufacturing (forging, casting, cutting, stamping and foundry works), processing of metals (e.g. chrome plating), manufacturing of apparel, finishing of apparel and similar elementary parts of the production process.
83.
A principal which completely outsources the transformation process should be classified under manufacturing only if it owns the raw material used as input to the production process (and therefore owns the final output). A principal which outsources only part of the transformation process is to be classified under manufacturing. In all other cases, the principals should be classified in accordance with the value added principle: this might be in Section G "Wholesale and retail trade" (depending on the activity and the specific good sold, see paragraphs 93-99 below) or in other Sections, e.g. M "Professional, scientific and technical activities" or N "Administrative and support service activities.
84.
In the case of outsourcing of employment services a distinction should be drawn between outsourcing on a temporary or an long-term and permanent basis:
n
In outsourcing on a temporary basis, the principal is classified on the basis of the activity actually performed
(e.g. manufacturing). The contractor is classified in class 78.20 (Temporary employment agency activities).
n
In outsourcing on a long-term or permanet basis, the principal is classified on the basis of the activity actually performed (e.g. manufacturing). The contractor is classified in class 78.30 (Other human resources provision).
## Treatment Of Outputs Of Outsourced Activities In The Cpa
85.
In the previous section, it was noted that in general the classification of activities does not depend on the criterion of carrying them out on own account or on a contract or fee basis. While the activities are not distinguished in NACE, the corresponding output is different, depending on whether the input material is owned by the manufacturing unit or not. In the second case, the output of the activity is the service performed on and incorporated in the input material, and this is what the contractor is paid for.
86.
Therefore, in general, CPA distinguishes between goods produced for own account and the services performed on goods on a fee or contract basis. Specific categories and subcategories, usually coded zx.yy.9 and zx.yy.99 respectively, have the heading "sub-contracted operations as part of manufacturing of…". These subcategories include partial or whole operations within the process of production of the products mentioned, carried out by a contractor on materials owned by the principal. These contractors are paid for the work done and can include the provision of a small quantity of additional materials needed for this work. These subcategories do not include goods of the same category, if produced by a contractor that owns the main input material".
87.
In CPA 2002 and CPC ver. 2, these outputs are called "industrial services" and "manufacturing services" respectively.
## On-Site Installation
88.
Units principally engaged in the installation or assembly of items or equipment in buildings for their functioning are classified in the construction section (division 43).
89.
Installation of machinery and other equipment other than those linked to the functioning of buildings (or civil engineering works) is classified in group 33.2 "Installation of industrial machinery and equipment".
## Repair And Maintenance
90.
Units that repair or maintain goods are classified in one of the following categories, depending on the types of goods: a.
group 33.1 "Repair of fabricated metal products, machinery and equipment"
b.
division 43 "Specialised construction activities"
c.
group 45.2 "Maintenance and repair of motor vehicles"
d.
division 95 "Repair of computers and personal and household goods"
91.
Units that overhaul aircraft, locomotives and ships are classified in the same class as the units that manufacture them.
## 3.4 Section-Specific Rules And Definitions
This section presents rules and definitions to be taken into account when classifying units in specific sections. General descriptions, definitions and characteristics of sections are presented in the corresponding explanatory notes.
## Section A: Agriculture, Forestry And Fishing
92.
In agriculture, one frequent situation where the breakdown of the value added presents difficulties is when the unit produces grapes and manufactures wine from the own-produced grapes, or when it produces olives and manufactures oil from the own-produced olives. In these cases the most suitable proxy variable is the "number of hours worked" and applying it to these vertically integrated activities would generally lead to classification of the units
under agriculture. In the same case for other agricultural products, units will be classified in agriculture by convention, in order to guarantee harmonised treatment.
## Section G: Wholesale And Retail Trade; Repair Of Motor Vehicles And Motorcycles
93.
In section G, trade is distinguished between wholesale and retail sale, apart from trade in motor vehicles. It may happen that a unit performs horizontally integrated trade activities under various possible forms: both wholesale and retail sale, or sale in store and not in stores, or sells many goods. If the goods sold by the unit do not comprise a single class accounting for at least 50% of the value added, then application of the top-down method requires special caution and consideration of additional levels.
94.
Within division 46 "Wholesale trade", first an additional level of distinction has to be considered: group 46.1 "Wholesale on a fee or contract basis" and the aggregation of groups 46.2-46.9. Therefore, the first decision to take is on allocation of the unit to one of these two possibilities, on the basis of the value-added principle. If the choice falls on aggregation level 46.2-46.9, then the second step consists of deciding between "non-specialised" and "specialised" (see below). Finally, the choice has to be made, always applying the top-down method, between the groups and classes.
95.
The figure below represents the decision tree to be used for allocation of a unit to a specific class in Division 46 "Wholesale trade":
Further subdivided according to the corresponding products
Specialised and nonspecialised wholesale trade

96.
Within division 47 "Retail trade", first an additional level of distinction has to be considered: the aggregation of groups 47.1 to 47.7 "Retail trade in stores" and the aggregation of groups 47.8-47.9 "Retail sale not in stores". Therefore, the first decision to take is on allocation of the unit to one of these two possibilities on the basis of the valueadded principle. If the choice falls on the aggregation level "Retail sale in stores", then the second step consists of deciding between "non-specialised" and "specialised" (see below). Finally, the choice has to be made, always applying the top-down method, between the groups and classes.
97.
The figure below represents the decision trees to be used for allocation of a unit to a specific class in Division 47 "Retail trade":
Further subdivided according to the corresponding products
In stores
47.1 - 47.7
Not in stores
47.8 - 47.9

Other
47.19
47.2
47.3
47.4
47.5
47.6
47.7
98.
Both in wholesale and in retail trade, the distinction between "specialised" and "non-specialised" is based on the
number of classes comprising the goods sold, where the classes to be considered each account for at least 5% (and less than 50%) of the value added: a.
If the products sold comprise up to four classes in any of groups 46.2 to 46.7 (for wholesale) or 47.2 to 47.7 (for retail sale), the unit is considered to be in "specialised trade". It is then necessary to determine the principal activity applying the top-down method on the basis of the value added, selecting first the main group and then the class within that group:
| Class | Case A | Case B | Case C |
|------------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|
| 47.21 | 30% | 30% | 20% |
| 47.25 | 5% | 15% | 5% |
| 47.62 | 45% | 40% | 35% |
| 47.75 | 20% | 15% | 40% |
| Final allocation | Class 47.62 | Class 47.21 | Class 47.75 |
b.
If the products sold comprise five or more classes in any of groups 46.2 to 46.7 (for wholesale) or 47.2 to 47.7 (for retail sale), the unit should be classified as non-specialised. In retail trade, it is therefore allocated to group 47.1. If food, beverages and tobacco account for at least 35% of value added, it will be allocated to NACE Rev. 2 class 47.11. In all other cases it should be allocated to class 47.19.
| Class | Case A | Case B | Case C |
|------------------|-------------|-------------|-------------|
| 47.21 | 5% | 20% | 5% |
| 47.22 | 10% | 15% | 5% |
| 47.42 | 15% | 10% | 45% |
| 47.43 | 25% | 10% | 40% |
| 47.54 | 45% | 45% | 5% |
| Final allocation | Class 47.19 | Class 47.11 | Class 47.19 |
99.
The allocation rules are always based on the retail activity of the unit. If, in addition to its retail trade, a unit has a secondary activity, allocation of the unit to the appropriate class is determined only by the conditional composition of its retail activity.
## Sections K: Financial And Insurance Activities, And M: Professional, Scientific And Technical Activities
100. In section K, two classes have been introduced that go beyond the traditional scope of NACE in covering economic
production, namely class 64.20 "Activities of holding companies" and 64.30 "Trusts, funds and similar financial entities". Units classified in these two classes do not have any revenue from the sale of products, and usually do not employ staff (except possibly one or a few persons acting as legal representatives). Sometimes these units are called "brass plates", or "post boxes" or "empty boxes", or "special purpose entities - SPE", as they just have a name and an address. They are numerous in some countries because of tax advantages.
101. When classifying a unit according to these two classes, attention should be paid also to other classes (two of them in
section M, division 70, namely classes 70.10 "Activities of head offices" and 70.22 "Business and other management consultancy activities").
102. More specifically:
a)
class 64.20 "Activities of holding companies" refers to activities of holding companies, whose principal activity is owning the group, and that do not administer or manage the group;
b)
class 64.30 "Trusts, funds and similar financial entities" is very particular in NACE, as it does not refer to an economic activity, but to units;
c)
class 66.30 "Fund management activities" includes activities carried out on a fee or contract basis;
d)
class 70.10 "Activities of head offices" includes overseeing and managing the related units, exercising operational control and day-to-day management;
e)
class 70.22 "Business and other management consultancy activities" includes consultancy activities related
to issues like corporate strategic and organisational planning, marketing objectives and policies, human resources policies, etc.
The principal activity of a unit performing several activities among those just mentioned should be identified, as usual, on the basis of the value added principle. It should be taken into account that capital gains do not constitute value added, and therefore should not be considered. The introduction of the above-mentioned classes marks a major change from NACE 1.1.
## Section O: Public Administration And Defence; Compulsory Social Security
103. NACE does not make any distinction regarding the institutional sector (as defined in the SNA and ESA) in which
the institutional unit is classified. Moreover, there is no NACE category that describes all activities carried out by the government as such. Consequently, not all government bodies are automatically classified in Section O "Public
administration and defence; compulsory social security". Units carrying out activities at national, regional or local levels that are specifically attributable to other areas of NACE are classified in the appropriate section. For example, a secondary school administered by the central or local government is allocated to group 85.3 (Section P) or a public hospital is allocated to class 86.10 (Section Q). On the other hand, not only government bodies are classified in section O: private units performing typical "public administration activities" are also classified here.
## Section T: Activities Of Households As Employers; Undifferentiated Goods- And Services-Producing Activities Of Households For Own Use
104. Division 97 includes only the activities of private households as employers of domestic personnel. The output of this
activity is considered production in the SNA, and for this purpose and for certain surveys this division has been included in NACE Rev. 2. The activities of domestic personnel are not classified here: for instance, baby-sitting activities are to be classified in 88.91, washing of textiles in 96.01 and valet activities in 96.09, etc.
105. The need to describe activities for own use has emerged in data collections such as labour force or time-use surveys.
While market activities should generally be described according to existing rules for identifying the correct NACE code, application of these rules to activities for own use has proved difficult because, in contrast to market activities, it is difficult to quantify the value added. These activities often combine agricultural, construction, textile manufacturing, repair and other services. Division 98 "Undifferentiated goods- and services-producing activities of private households for own use" corresponds to Divisions 96 and 97 of NACE Rev. 1, which where introduced in order to cover these activities. Division 98 is not relevant in EU business statistics, but in data collections covering household and subsistence activities.
# Relations Between Nace Rev. 2 And Other Classifications Chapter 4
106. This chapter presents the relationships between NACE and other linked classifications. The main reference is the
diagram in paragraph 3 of this document. First the relationships with international classifications based on the UN system are described in some detail, as NACE and many EU classifications mirror, in various ways, the corresponding world classifications. Then the relations with the other EU classifications are shown. Finally the relations with other multinational classifications are described, together with the aggregated structures used in the context of national accounts.
107. RAMON, Eurostat's online server for metadata, provides information and detailed structures on international, regional and national statistical classifications developed for many statistical areas: economic analysis, environment, education, occupations, national accounts, etc. The information covers various aspects, including general descriptions, structure of the classifications (i.e. codes and headings), explanatory notes, correspondence tables between classifications, methodological documents and other general information relating to classifications.
Whenever available, the information is presented in all official EU languages.
The RAMON server can be publicly accessed on the web at the following address: http://www.europa.eu.int/comm/
eurostat/ramon/.
## 4.1 Relations With International Classifications The International Family Of Economic And Social Classifications
108. The international family of economic and social classifications is made up of classifications registered in the United
Nations Inventory of Classifications, reviewed and approved as guidelines by the United Nations Statistical Commission or other competent intergovernmental boards on such matters as economics, demographics, labour, health, education, social welfare, geography, environment, time use and tourism. It also includes classifications on similar subjects that are registered in the Inventory and are derived or related to the international classifications and are primarily, but not solely, used for regional or national purposes (such as NACE and the CPA).
109. The international family of economic and social classifications is made up of three major types: reference, derived
and related classifications.
110*. Reference classifications* are economic and social classifications that are a product of international agreements approved by the United Nations Statistical Commission or another competent intergovernmental board, such as that of the International Labour Organization (ILO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the World Health Organization (WHO), or the World Customs Organization (WCO) depending on the subject-matter. Thus reference classifications have achieved broad acceptance and official agreement and are approved and recommended as guidelines for the preparation of derived classifications. They may be used as models for the development or revision of other classifications, both with respect to the structure and with respect to the character and definition of the categories. ISIC is the reference classification of economic activities.
111*. Derived classifications* are based on reference classifications. Derived classifications may be prepared either by adopting the reference classification structure and categories, and then possibly providing additional detail beyond that provided by the reference classification, or they may be prepared by rearranging or aggregating items from one or
more reference classifications. Derived classifications are often tailored to use at national or multi-national level.
NACE is a derived classification of ISIC.
112*. Related classifications* are those that partially refer to reference classifications, and for which correspondence tables
(sometimes called concordance tables) are necessary in order to compare statistics. NAICS (see below) is a related classification of ISIC.
## The Un Integrated System Of Classifications Of Activities And Products
113. In 1989 the UN Statistical Commission proposed a set of classifications that together form an integrated system for
classifying activities, goods and services and that could be used in different kinds of economic statistics at world level. ISIC, CPC, SITC and BECs are the main components of this system and are closely interrelated:
n
ISIC represents the activity side of the system,
n
CPC is the central instrument for classifying goods and services,
n
SITC is the aggregated classification of transportable goods for international trade statistics for comparison purposes,
n
BECs12 is the classification of goods according to Broad Economic Categories for purposes of economic
analysis.
114. When referring to goods, both CPC and SITC use the headings and sub-headings of the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System (HS) as building blocks for their categories, i.e. each heading at the lowest level of the CPC corresponds exactly to at least one heading of the HS or to an aggregation of two or more HS headings or subheadings. There are some situations, especially in agriculture, where an HS heading is split over several CPC items.
115. HS is the international customs product classification drawn up by the World Customs Organisation for foreign
trade. HS is used for both customs tariff and foreign trade statistics purposes. HS is hierarchically structured and provides the detailed definitions and characteristics of about 5000 goods. It is structured into 96 chapters, each identified by a two-digit numerical code; chapters are subdivided into headings, which are in turn subdivided into subheadings. The headings are identified by means of a four-digit numerical code and the subheadings by a six-digit numerical code. Although the HS basically covers goods, i.e. products which have a physical dimension, it also encompasses electricity. HS does not cover services, but does include the physical "manifestations" of services (e.g. architects' plans, diskettes with software, even art originals and antiques more than 100 years old, etc.). It also includes goods which are not produced, such as used equipment. The latest revision of HS was implemented in 2007.
116. CPC arranges products according to the physical characteristics and intrinsic nature of goods or the nature of the
services rendered. This criterion includes, for example, the type of raw material used, the production process involved, the purpose for which the goods are intended, etc. Although this criterion is often the same as the one used for the classifications of economic activities, the CPC is not a product classification depending on the classification
of economic activities. For this reason, the CPC coding system is independent of ISIC.
117. Despite this specific approach, however, the CPC has also taken into consideration the criterion of economic
origin. According to this criterion (adopted in the EU for NACE and CPA), a product classification combines in one category goods or services that are the output of only one economic activity. Thus efforts were made to define headings at the lowest level of the CPC in such a way that as many products as possible, at this level, can be allocated to a single category of ISIC: the CPC publication includes the correspondences between CPC subclasses and the relevant ISIC class. However, application of the origin criterion is not always practicable, even using the most detailed level of HS.
118. A revised version of CPC, CPC ver. 2, was adopted by the UN Statistical Commission in March 2006. 119. SITC follows a traditional order in which the materials used, the stage of processing and the end use are the main
considerations.
120. BEC is designed to serve as a means for converting data compiled on the basis of SITC into meaningful aggregates
for purposes of economic analysis, based on the SNA distinction between capital goods, intermediate goods and durable/non-durable consumer goods. There is no direct relationship between ISIC and BEC, as it rearranges the SITC categories in 19 BEC categories. BEC was revised in 1986, based on the third revision of SITC, and the
definition of BEC categories in terms of HS subheadings has subsequently been changed to reflect changes made to the HS in 2002 and 2007.
## Nace Link To Isic
121. NACE is a derived classification of ISIC: categories at all levels of NACE are defined either to be identical to, or to
form subsets of, single ISIC categories. The first level and the second level of ISIC Rev. 4 (sections and divisions) are identical to sections and divisions of NACE Rev. 2. The third and fourth levels (groups and classes) of ISIC Rev. 4 are subdivided in NACE Rev. 2 according to European requirements. However, groups and classes of NACE Rev. 2 can always be aggregated into the groups and classes of ISIC Rev. 4 from which they were derived. The aim of the further breakdowns in NACE Rev. 2, as compared with ISIC Rev. 4, is to obtain a classification more suited to the structures of the European economies.
122. Also the coding systems used in ISIC and NACE are, as far as possible, the same: to distinguish easily between the
two, NACE places a dot between the first two digits (division level) and the last two (groups and classes). Since some groups and classes in ISIC Rev. 4 are disaggregated into NACE groups and classes, without introducing additional hierarchical levels, some ISIC codes differ from the corresponding NACE codes. An activity at group or class level may therefore have a numerical code in NACE Rev. 2, which differs from that in ISIC Rev. 4.
## Nace Links To Other International Classifications
123. There are other classifications developed by the United Nations, or other intergovernmental organs, that have some
relationship with ISIC or that make use of parts of ISIC in defining their own scope or categories. As a consequence, they have relations with NACE.
124. These classifications have been developed for statistics on occupations, employment, expenditure, education, tourism
and the environment. The main ones are listed below. Detailed information can be found on the UN Statistical Division's website (http://unstats.un.org/unsd/cr/registry/class_default.asp):
n
The Classifications of the Functions of Government (COFOG);
n
The International Standard Classification of Education (ISCED)13;
n
The International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO)14;
n
The Tourism Satellite Account (TSA)15;
n
The Information and Communication Technology Sector Classification (ICT)16;
n
The Content and media industries sector definition.
## 4.2 Relations With Eu Classifications Classification Of Products By Activity - Cpa
125. CPA17 is the European version of the CPC, and the purposes it serves are in line with those of the CPC. In the EU,
classifications for specific statistical domains are linked to the CPA unless the CPA is itself used as a survey classification. Although the CPA is the European counterpart of the CPC, it differs from the latter not only in that it is usually more detailed, but also as regards its structure. The EU adopted the criterion of economic origin for its development, with NACE as the reference framework. Therefore, up to the fourth level (classes) the structure of CPA corresponds to NACE. In general, CPC subclasses are re-arranged according to their economic origin. The link between the CPA and NACE Rev. 2 is evident in the CPA code: at all levels of the CPA, the coding of the first four digits is identical
with that used in NACE Rev. 2, with very few exceptions. As a tool in practical everyday statistical work, CPA, like the other product classifications, can be used in delineating the characteristic products of the individual activities. It has to be noted, however, that in certain cases the activity-product link is a convention: this happens when the same products are outcomes of different activities, with different production processes. National versions of the CPA exist just as there are national versions of NACE Rev. 2.
## Combined Nomenclature - Cn
126. CN18, the Combined Nomenclature is the classification used within the EU for the purposes of foreign trade custom
tariffs and statistics and provides a degree of detail going beyond that in the HS. The CN was introduced in 1988. Headings in the CN are identified by means of an eight-digit numerical code, adding two digits to the relevant HS code. The CN is revised every year and, as a Council Regulation, is binding on the Member States.
## Prodcom
127. "PRODCOM"19 is the abbreviation for the EU system of production statistics for mining and manufacturing (i.e. excluding services, other than "industrial services"). The product classification (PRODCOM list), upon which production statistics are based, is drawn up each year by the PRODCOM committee. The headings of the PRODCOM list are derived from the CN, but their code is a further breakdown of the CPA code. PRODCOM headings are coded using an eight-digit numerical code, the first six digits of which are identical to those of the CPA code. The PRODCOM list is therefore linked to, and therefore consistent with, CPA. The link with CPA emphasises the link with NACE, enabling the enterprises producing the products to be identified, while the link with the CN allows comparisons between production statistics and foreign trade statistics.
## Main Industrial Groupings - Migs
128. MIGs20 is the acronym for Main Industrial Groupings, a European classification which groups industries in terms of
demand-based products: capital goods, intermediate goods, consumer durable goods, consumer non-durable goods and energy. MIGs are used for several indicators, among them the index of industrial production (expressed in terms of value added and principle based on KAU) and the index of producer prices.
## Balance Of Payments: Classification For Foreign Direct Investment Statistics
129. Balance of payments21 use an aggregation of NACE categories for reporting data on foreign direct investment (FDI):
the activity breakdown levels are mainly expressed in terms of NACE divisions.
## 4.3 Relations With Other Multinational Classifications Naics
130. NAICS is the North American Industry Classification System. NAICS was developed in the mid-1990s to provide
common industry definitions for Canada, Mexico, and the United States, to facilitate economic analyses of the economies of the three North American countries. NAICS is developed on the basis of a production-oriented conceptual framework and classifies units, not activities. As a result, the structures of ISIC and NAICS are substantially different. However, statistical data collected according to NAICS can be aggregated into the two-digit divisions of ISIC Rev. 4/NACE Rev. 2, ensuring comparability of data. In many cases, more detailed links are possible. A detailed concordance between NAICS and ISIC is published on the NAICS website (USA: *http://www.census.gov/naics,*
Canada: *http://www.statcan.ca/).*
## Anzsic
131. The Australian and New Zealand Standard Industrial Classification (ANZSIC) was developed for use in both countries for the production and analysis of industry statistics. In the development of ANZSIC great emphasis has been placed on alignment with the international standards. ISIC Rev. 3 had been used as the international standard for
reference purposes. Broad concordances between ANZSIC and ISIC can be found on the ABS website: http://www.
statistics.gov.au/. ANZSIC is much closer to ISIC/NACE than NAICS, as its structure broadly follows ISIC, where
categories at the division and more detailed levels can be aggregated into the two-digit categories of ISIC. Therefore, conversion of ANZSIC data into ISIC/NACE is possible at a fairly detailed level.
## Other Classifications
132. In addition to the EU Member States, Norway and Switzerland are committed to using a national version derived
from NACE. Moreover, about ten other countries outside the EU, or candidate countries like Croatia and Turkey, refer to NACE for their classification of economic activities. More than 150 countries in the world are using classifications of economic activities based either on NACE or ISIC.
## 4.4 Aggregated Structures For National Accounts
133. National accountants have identified a need for two standard aggregations of ISIC/NACE categories to be used for
reporting SNA data from a wide range of countries. The first, known as "*high-level aggregation*", aggregates the ISIC/
NACE sections into 10 or 11 categories; the second, called "*intermediate aggregation*", aggregates divisions and is
composed of 38 categories. The two aggregated structures are not an integral part of ISIC/NACE, but are fully integrated into their hierarchical structure (high-level aggregation, sections, intermediate aggregation, divisions, groups and classes).
134. The following table presents the "high-level SNA/ISIC aggregation A*10/11":

# Changes From Nace Rev. 1.1 To Nace Rev. 2 Chapter 5
135. While some of the rules for application of NACE have been changed, and criteria for construction of the classification, as well as the formulation of explanatory notes, have been reviewed, the overall characteristics of NACE remain unchanged.
136. New concepts at the highest level of the classification have been introduced, and new detail has been created to
reflect different forms of production and emerging new industries. At the same time, efforts have been made to maintain the structure of the classification in all areas that do not explicitly require change based on new concepts.
137. The detail of the classification has substantially increased (from 514 to 615 classes). For service-producing activities, this increase is visible at all levels, including the highest one, while for other activities, such as agriculture, the increase in detail affected mostly the lower level of the classification.
## 5.1 Changes In The Structure
138. NACE Rev. 1.1 had 17 sections and 62 divisions; NACE Rev. 2 has 21 sections and 88 divisions. At the highest level
of NACE, some sections can be easily compared with the previous version of the classification. However, the introduction of some new concepts at the section level, e.g. the Information section or the grouping of activities linked to environment, makes easy overall comparison between NACE Rev. 2 and its previous version impossible.
139. The table set out below presents the broad correspondence between the sections of NACE Rev. 1.1 and NACE Rev.
2. Please note that this table presents only the rough one-to-one correspondence between the sections: further additional details are necessary to establish the complete correspondence.

141. In order to have an idea of the impact of changes on official statistics due to the implementation of NACE Rev. 2, it
is useful to distinguish the following types of correspondences between NACE Rev. 1.1 and NACE Rev. 2:
n 1-to-1 correspondences: 195 classes in NACE Rev. 1.1 correspond exactly to one class in NACE Rev. 2 and viceversa;
n n-to-1 correspondences: 86 cases, where two or more classes in NACE Rev 1.1 correspond to one class in NACE
Rev. 2;
n 1-to-m correspondences: 18 cases, where one NACE Rev. 1.1 class is split into two or more classes in NACE Rev 2; n n-to-m correspondences: 215 cases, where two or more classes in NACE Rev. 1.1 correspond to two or more classes in NACE Rev. 2.
Units classified in classes associated with 1-to-1 and n-to-1 correspondence can be automatically re-coded when implementing NACE Rev. 2 in business registers.
This statement should be adapted, for each country, according to the national version of NACE.
142. The substantial changes between NACE Rev. 1.1 and NACE Rev. 2 are too numerous to be listed here in their entirety. Nonetheless, the most prominent ones are listed below.
143. The NACE Rev. 1.1 sections for agriculture and fishing have been combined. However, the detail under this new section A (Agriculture, forestry and fishing) has been substantially increased. This is in response to continuing requests for more detail in ISIC, mostly due to the fact that agriculture is an important part of the economic structure in many developing countries.
144. New divisions in manufacturing, representing important new industries or old industries that have increased their
economic or social relevance, have been created, such as division 21 (Manufacture of basic pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations) and division 26 (Manufacture of computer, electronic and optical products). The scope of the latter differs from division 30 (Manufacture of office machinery and computers) in NACE Rev. 1.1, making it a better tool for statistics on high-tech activities. Other new divisions, such as division 11 (Manufacture of beverages) and 31 (Manufacture of furniture) have resulted from splitting existing divisions and therefore raising their components from group level, as before, to division level.
145. Most of the remaining divisions in section C (Manufacturing) are unchanged, except NACE Rev. 1.1 divisions 22
(Publishing, printing and reproduction of recorded media) and 37 (Recycling), of which substantial portions have been moved to other sections (see below).
146. Repair and installation of machinery and equipment, which was formerly classified under manufacturing of the
corresponding type of equipment, is now identified separately in division 33 (Repair and installation of machinery and equipment). All specialised repair activities are now classifiable separately in NACE, although no high-level aggregate for "Repair" has been created.
147. A new section E (Water supply; sewerage, waste management and remediation activities) has been created, which includes the "sanitation" activities in NACE Rev. 1.1 division 90, water collection and distribution activities in NACE Rev. 1.1 division 41 and materials recovery activities, which largely correspond to NACE Rev.1.1 division 37. This section now groups activities of common policy interest, but is also based on the actual organisation of these activities in a large number of countries. The detail on these activities has been substantially increased.
148. The concept of "specialised construction activities" (also known as "special trades") has been introduced in NACE
Rev. 2, replacing the division structure of the previous version, which was based largely on the stage of the construction process.
149. Repair of household goods has been removed from section G (Wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles
and motorcycles) of NACE Rev. 1.1. However, the exception for classifying trade and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles in division 45 of NACE Rev. 2 (corresponding to division 50 in NACE Rev. 1.1) has been retained for comparability and continuity reasons.
150. The detail in section I (Accommodation and food service activities) has been increased to reflect the different nature
and specialisation of activities carried out.
151. A new section J (Information and communication) has been created, combining activities involving production and
distribution of information and cultural products, provision of the means to transmit or distribute these products, as well as data or communications, information technology activities and the processing of data and other information service activities. The main components of this section are publishing activities, including software publishing (division 58), motion picture and sound recording activities (division 59), radio and TV broadcasting and programming activities (division 60), telecommunications activities (division 61) and information technology activities (division 62) and other information service activities (division 63). These activities were included in NACE Rev. 1.1 sections D (Manufacturing), I (Transport, storage and communications), K (Real estate, renting and business activities) and O
(Other community, social and personal service activities), therefore having a strong impact on comparability with the previous NACE version. However, this new treatment of information and communication activities provides a more consistent approach than the previous version of NACE, based on the character of the activities carried out.
152. In section K (Finance and insurance activities), two classes have been introduced that go beyond the traditional
scope of NACE in covering economic production, namely class 64.20 (Activities of holding companies) and 64.30 (Trusts, funds and similar financial entities).
153. The NACE Rev 1.1 section for Real estate, renting and business activities has been split up into three sections in
NACE Rev. 2. Real estate is now represented as a stand-alone section (section L) due to its size and importance in the System of National Accounts. The remaining activities have been separated into section M (Professional, scientific and technical activities), covering activities that require a high degree of training and make specialised knowledge and skills available to users and section N (Administrative and support service activities), covering activities that support general business operations and do not focus on the transfer of specialised knowledge. Computer and related activities (NACE Rev. 1.1 division 72) are no longer part of this section. Computer repair activities have been grouped with repair of household goods in section S, while software publishing and IT activities have been grouped in the new section J.
154. The scope of education (section P) has been changed explicitly to include specialised sport, cultural and other educational services and also specialised support services.
155. More detail has been added under section Q (Human health and social work activities), creating three divisions instead of one, as in the previous version of NACE. In addition, the focus has been narrowed and includes only "human health" activities, providing a better tool for measuring this important part of the economy. As a result, veterinary activities have been removed from this section and put in a division in section M (Professional, scientific and technical activities).
156. Substantial components of NACE Rev. 1.1 section O (Other community, social and personal service activities) have
been moved to NACE Rev. 2 sections E (Water supply; sewerage, waste management and remediation activities) and J (Information and communication), as described above. The remaining activities have been regrouped in two new sections for Arts, entertainment and recreation (section R) and Other service activities (section S). As a result, activities such as creative arts, library activities and gambling activities have been raised to the division level. Repair of computers and personal and household goods is now included in this new section S.
## 5.2 Correspondence Tables: Scope And Use
157. Correspondence tables are important tools for comparing statistical data collected and presented using different
classifications. They become necessary when the classification changes over time, or when different underlying frameworks do not allow classifications to be closely related. Correspondence tables between different versions of the same classification are used to describe the detailed changes that have taken place in the revision process.
158. Since NACE is used for collection and presentation of statistics in many areas, there has been a strong need for correspondence tables between the current NACE and its previous version. Complete detailed correspondences between NACE Rev. 2 and NACE Rev. 1.1, and vice versa, are available electronically, but not included in this publication.
159. When drafting NACE Rev. 2 and simultaneously CPA 2008, a strong link was established between the two classifications. By defining the goods in CPA in terms of the CN whenever possible, a detailed correspondence table between CN, CPC, ISIC and NACE was established.
160. All correspondence tables are available in electronic form only either at RAMON (http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/ramon/index.cfm?TargetUrl=DSP_PUB_WELC) or at the United Nations Statistics Division website (http://unstats. un.org/unsd/class ).
## Glossary Chapter 6
This glossary gives a further description of some of the terms used throughout the NACE Rev. 2 Introduction and Explanatory Notes. Every attempt has been made to ensure that the descriptions are consistent with the definitions of the terms when used elsewhere, but these descriptions are not intended to give all-purpose definitive meanings of the words. The purpose of this glossary is merely to help users of NACE to interpret it correctly.
By-product: An exclusive by-product is a product technologically linked to the production of other products in the same group, but which is not produced in any other group (for example, molasses linked to the production of sugar). Exclusive by-products are used as inputs for the manufacture of other products. An ordinary by-product (i.e. a by-product which is not exclusive to a single group) is a product technologically linked to the production of other products, but which is produced in several groups (for example, the hydrogen produced during petroleum refining is technologically linked to that produced in petrochemical manufacture and coal carbonisation and identical to that produced in the group comprising other basic chemical products).
Commodity: A commodity is a transportable good that may be exchanged. It may be one of a run from a production line, a unique item (Mona Lisa) or the material medium for a service (software diskette). This is the concept used for customs classifications.
Capital goods: Capital goods are goods, other than material inputs and fuel, used for the production of other goods and/or services. They include factory buildings, machinery, locomotives, lorries and tractors. Land is not usually regarded as a capital good.
Industrial process: A transformation process (whether physical, chemical, manual or whatever) used in the manufacture of new products (whether consumer, intermediate or investment goods), in the processing of used products or in the provision of services to industry as defined in Sections B (extractive industries), C (manufacturing industry), D (production and distribution of electricity, gas and steam) E (Water supply, sewerage, waste management and remediation activities) and F (construction industry).
Machinery: domestic or household: Machinery and equipment of a type designed principally for use by private households, for example household washing machines.
Machinery: industrial: Machinery and equipment of a type designed principally for use in non-domestic premises, for example machine tools or laundry-type washing machines.
Manufacturing industry: All activities included within Section C. Both cottage industry and large-scale activities are included. It should be noted that use of heavy plant or machinery is not exclusive to Section C.
Product: A product is the outcome of economic activity. It is the generic term applied to goods and services.
## Finished Product: Products For Which Processing Has Been Completed.
Semi-finished product: Products that have undergone some processing but require further processing before they are ready for use. They may be sold to other manufacturers or transferred to sub-contractors for further processing. Typical examples include rough metal castings sold or transferred for finishing elsewhere.
Production: Production is an activity resulting in a product. It is used with reference to the whole range of economic activities. The term is not reserved for the agricultural, mining or manufacturing sectors. It is also used in relation to the services sector. More specific terms may be used to denote production: provision of services, processing, manufacturing, etc., depending on the branch of activity. Production may be measured in various ways either in physical terms or by value.
Transformation: Transformation is a process that modifies the nature, composition or form of raw materials, semi-finished or finished products for the purpose of obtaining new products.
Treatment: A process that is carried out, inter alia, for the purpose of protecting certain products, for giving them certain properties or for preventing any harmful effects that might otherwise result from their use. Examples are the treatment of crops, wood, metals and waste.
Value added: The gross value added at basic price is defined as the difference between output at basic prices and intermediate consumption at purchaser's prices.

This section includes the exploitation of vegetal and animal natural resources, comprising the activities of growing of crops, raising and breeding of animals, harvesting of timber and other plants, animals or animal products from a farm or their natural habitats.
## 01 Crop And Animal Production, Hunting And Related Service Activities
This division includes two basic activities, namely the production of crop products and production of animal products, covering also the forms of organic agriculture, the growing of genetically modified crops and the raising of genetically modified animals. This division includes growing of crops in open fields as well in greenhouses.
Group 01.5 (Mixed farming) breaks with the usual principles for identifying main activity. It accepts that many agricultural holdings have reasonably balanced crop and animal production, and that it would be arbitrary to classify them in one category or the other. This division also includes service activities incidental to agriculture, as well as hunting, trapping and related activities. Agricultural activities exclude any subsequent processing of the agricultural products (classified under divisions 10 and 11 (Manufacture of food products and beverages) and division 12 (Manufacture of tobacco products)), beyond that needed to prepare them for the primary markets. The preparation of products for the primary markets is included here. The division excludes field construction (e.g. agricultural land terracing, drainage, preparing rice paddies etc.) classified in section F (Construction) and buyers and cooperative associations engaged in the marketing of farm products classified in section G. Also excluded is the landscape care and maintenance, which is classified in class 81.30.

## Section C - Manufacturing
This section includes the physical or chemical transformation of materials, substances, or components into new products, although this cannot be used as the single universal criterion for defining manufacturing (see remark on processing of waste below). The materials, substances, or components transformed are raw materials that are products of agriculture, forestry, fishing, mining or quarrying as well as products of other manufacturing activities. Substantial alteration, renovation or reconstruction of goods is generally considered to be manufacturing. The output of a manufacturing process may be finished in the sense that it is ready for utilisation or consumption, or it may be semi-finished in the sense that it is to become an input for further manufacturing. For example, the output of alumina refining is the input used in the primary production of aluminium; primary aluminium is the input to aluminium wire drawing; and aluminium wire is the input for the manufacture of fabricated wire products. Manufacture of specialised components and parts of, and accessories and attachments to, machinery and equipment is, as a general rule, classified in the same class as the manufacture of the machinery and equipment for which the parts and accessories are intended. Manufacture of unspecialised components and parts of machinery and equipment, e.g. engines, pistons, electric motors, electrical assemblies, valves, gears, roller bearings, is classified in the appropriate class of manufacturing, without regard to the machinery and equipment in which these items may be included. However, making specialised components and accessories by moulding or extruding plastics materials is included in group 22.2. Assembly of the component parts of manufactured products is considered manufacturing. This includes the assembly of manufactured products from either self-produced or purchased components. The recovery of waste, i.e. the processing of waste into secondary raw materials is classified in group 38.3 (Materials recovery). While this may involve physical or chemical transformations, this is not considered to be a part of manufacturing. The primary purpose of these activities is considered to be the treatment or processing of waste and they are therefore classified in Section E (Water supply; sewerage, waste management and remediation activities). However, the manufacture of new final products (as opposed to secondary raw materials) is classified in manufacturing, even if these processes use waste as an input. For example, the production of silver from film waste is considered to be a manufacturing process. Specialised maintenance and repair of industrial, commercial and similar machinery and equipment is, in general, classified in division 33 (Repair, maintenance and installation of machinery and equipment). However, the repair of computers and personal and household goods is classified in division 95 (Repair of computers and personal and household goods), while the repair of motor vehicles is classified in division 45 (Wholesale and retail trade and repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles). The installation of machinery and equipment, when carried out as a specialised activity, is classified in 33.20.
Remark: The boundaries of manufacturing and the other sectors of the classification system can be somewhat blurry. As a general rule, the activities in the manufacturing section involve the transformation of materials into new products. Their output is a new product. However, the definition of what constitutes a new product can be somewhat subjective. As clarification, the following activities are considered manufacturing in NACE:
-
fresh fish processing (oyster shucking, fish filleting), not done on a fishing boat (see 10.20)
-
milk pasteurising and bottling (see 10.51)
-
leather converting (see 15.11)
-
wood preserving (see 16.10)
-
printing and related activities (see 18.1)
-
tyre retreading (see 22.11)
-
ready-mixed concrete production (see 23.63)
-
electroplating, plating, and metal heat treating (see 25.61)
-
rebuilding or remanufacturing of machinery (e.g. automobile engines, see 29.10)
Conversely, there are activities that, although sometimes involving transformation processes, are classified in other sections of NACE; in other words, they are not classified as manufacturing. They include:
-
logging, classified in section A (Agriculture, forestry and fishing);
-
beneficiating of agricultural products, classified in section A (Agriculture, forestry and fishing);
-
preparation of food for immediate consumption on the premises is classified to division 56 (Food and beverage service activities);
-
beneficiating of ores and other minerals, classified in section B (Mining and quarrying);
-
construction of structures and fabricating operations performed at the site of construction, classified in section F (Construction);
-
activities of breaking bulk and redistribution in smaller lots, including packaging, repackaging, or bottling products, such as liquors or chemicals; sorting of scrap; mixing paints to customer order; and cutting metals to customer order; treatment not resulting into a different good is classified to section G (Wholesale and retail trade; repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles).
## 10 Manufacture Of Food Products
This division includes the processing of the products of agriculture, forestry and fishing into food for humans or animals, and includes the production of various intermediate products that are not directly food products. The activity often generates associated products of greater or lesser value (for example, hides from slaughtering, or oilcake from oil production). This division is organised by activities dealing with different kinds of products: meat, fish, fruit and vegetables, fats and oils, milk products, grain mill products, animal feeds and other food products. Production can be carried out for own account, as well as for third parties, as in custom slaughtering. Some activities are considered manufacturing (for example, those performed in bakeries, pastry shops, and prepared meat shops etc. which sell their own production) even though there is retail sale of the products in the producers' own shop. However, where the processing is minimal and does not lead to a real transformation, the unit is classified to wholesale and retail trade (section G). Preparation of food for immediate consumption on the premises is classified to division 56 (Food and beverage service activities). Production of animal feeds from slaughter waste or by-products is classified in 10.9, while processing food and beverage waste into secondary raw material is classified to 38.3, and disposal of food and beverage waste in 38.21. This division does not include the preparation of meals for immediate consumption, such as in restaurants.

## 17 Manufacture Of Paper And Paper Products
This division includes the manufacture of pulp, paper and converted paper products. The manufacture of these products is grouped together because they constitute a series of vertically connected processes. More than one activity is often carried out in a single unit. There are essentially three activities: The manufacture of pulp involves separating the cellulose fibres from other matter in wood, or dissolving and de-inking of used paper, and mixing in small amounts of reagents to reinforce the binding of the fibres. The manufacture of paper involves releasing pulp onto a moving wire mesh so as to form a continuous sheet. Converted paper products are made from paper and other materials by various techniques. The paper articles may be printed (e.g. wallpaper, gift wrap etc.), as long as the printing of information is not the main purpose.

## 18 Printing And Reproduction Of Recorded Media
This division includes printing of products, such as newspapers, books, periodicals, business forms, greeting cards, and other materials, and associated support activities, such as bookbinding, plate-making services, and data imaging. The support activities included here are an integral part of the printing industry, and a product (a printing plate, a bound book, or a computer disk or file) that is an integral part of the printing industry is almost always provided by these operations. Processes used in printing include a variety of methods for transferring an image from a plate, screen or computer file to a medium, such as paper, plastics, metal, textile articles, or wood. The most prominent of these methods entails the transfer of the image from a plate or screen to the medium through lithographic, gravure, screen or flexographic printing. Often a computer file is used to directly ''drive'' the printing mechanism to create the image or electrostatic and other types of equipment (digital or non
impact printing).
Though printing and publishing can be carried out by the same unit (a newspaper, for example), it is less and less the case that these distinct activities are carried out in the same physical location.

## 31 Manufacture Of Furniture
This division includes the manufacture of furniture and related products of any material except stone, concrete and ceramic. The processes used in the manufacture of furniture are standard methods of forming materials and assembling components, including cutting, moulding and laminating. The design of the article, for both aesthetic and functional qualities, is an important aspect of the production process. Some of the processes used in furniture manufacturing are similar to processes that are used in other segments of manufacturing. For example, cutting and assembly occurs in the production of wood trusses that are classified in division 16 (Manufacture of wood and wood products). However, the multiple processes distinguish wood furniture manufacturing from wood product manufacturing. Similarly, metal furniture manufacturing uses techniques that are also employed in the manufacturing of roll-formed products classified in division 25 (Manufacture of fabricated metal products). The moulding process for plastics furniture is similar to the moulding of other plastics products. However, the manufacture of plastics furniture tends to be a specialised activity.

(1)
Council Regulation (EEC) No 3037/90 (3) established the
statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community (hereinafter referred to as 'NACE
Rev. 1' or 'NACE Rev. 1.1').
(2)
In order to reflect the technological development and
structural changes of the economy, an up-to-date classification, called NACE Revision 2, should be established
(hereinafter referred to as 'NACE Rev. 2').
(3)
An up-to-date classification such as NACE Rev. 2 is central to the Commission's ongoing efforts to modernise the production of Community statistics; it is expected to contribute, through more comparable and relevant data, to better economic governance at both Community and national level.
(4)
In order to function, the internal market requires statistical standards applicable to the collection, transmission and publication of national and Community statistics so that businesses, financial institutions, governments and all other operators in the internal market can have access to reliable and comparable statistical data. To this end, it is vital that the various categories for classifying activities in the

Community be interpreted uniformly in all the Member States.
(5)
Reliable and comparable statistics are necessary to enable businesses to assess their competitiveness, and are useful to the Community institutions in preventing distortions of competition.
(6)
The establishment of a revised common statistical classification of economic activities does not oblige Member States to collect, publish or supply data. Only if the Member States use activity classifications linked to the Community classification is it possible to provide integrated information with the reliability, speed, flexibility and degree of detail required for the management of the internal market.
(7)
Provision should be made for the Member States to be able, in order to meet national requirements, to integrate into their national classifications additional categories based on
the statistical classification of economic activities in the Community.
(8)
The international comparability of economic statistics requires that the Member States and the Community institutions use classifications of economic activities which are directly linked to the International Standard Industrial Classification of all economic activities (ISIC) Rev. 4, as adopted by the Statistical Commission of the United Nations.
(9)
Use of the classification of economic activities in the Community requires that the Commission be assisted by the Statistical Programme Committee set up by Council Decision 89/382/EEC, Euratom (4) in particular as
regards:
the
examination
of
problems
arising
from
implementation
of
NACE
Rev.
2;
ensuring
a
fully
coordinated transition from NACE Rev. 1 to NACE Rev. 2; and, the preparation of future amendments to NACE Rev. 2.
(10) Council Regulation (EEC) No 2186/93 (1) established a
common framework for setting up statistical business registers with harmonised definitions, characteristics, scope and updating procedures.
(11) The establishment of a revised statistical classification of
economic activities makes it necessary to modify specifically various references to NACE Rev. 1 as well as to amend a number of relevant instruments. It is therefore necessary to amend
the
following
instruments:
Regulation
(EEC)
No 3037/90; Council Regulation (EEC) No 3924/91 of 19 December 1991 on the establishment of a Community
survey of industrial production (2); Council Regulation (EC,
Euratom) No 58/97 of 20 December 1996 concerning
structural business statistics (3); Council Regulation (EC)
No 1165/98 of 19 May 1998 concerning short term

25 May 1998 on statistical returns in respect of the
carriage of goods by road (5); Council Regulation (EC)
No 530/1999 of 9 March 1999 concerning structural
statistics on earnings and on labour costs (6); Regulation
(EC) No 2150/2002 of the European Parliament and of the
Council of 25 November 2002 on waste statistics (7);
Regulation (EC) No 450/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 February 2003 concerning the
labour cost index (8); Regulation (EC) No 48/2004 of the
European Parliament and of the Council of 5 December 2003 on the production of annual Community statistics on
the steel industry for the reference years 2003-2009 (9);
Regulation (EC) No 808/2004 of the European Parliament and of
the Council of 21 April 2004 concerning
Community statistics on the information society (10); and,
Regulation (EC) No 1552/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 7 September 2005 on statistics
relating to vocational training in enterprises (11).
(12) A number of Community instruments need to be amended,
according to the specific procedures applicable to them, before transition to NACE Rev. 2, namely: Council Regulation (EC) No 2223/96 of 25 June 1996 on the
(1) OJ L 196, 5.8.1993, p. 1. Regulation as last amended by Regulation
(EC) No 1882/2003.

Community (12); Regulation (EC) No 138/2004 of the
European Parliament and of the Council of 5 December
2003 on the economic accounts for agriculture in the
Community (13); and Regulation (EC) No 184/2005 of the
European Parliament and the Council of 12 January 2005
on Community statistics concerning balance of payments,
international trade in services and foreign direct invest-
ment (14).
(13) The measures necessary for the implementation of this
Regulation should be adopted in accordance with Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers
conferred on the Commission (15).
(14) In particular, power should be conferred on the Commission to amend or supplement NACE Rev. 2 in order to take account of technological or economic developments or to align it with other economic and social classifications. Since these measures are of general scope and designed to amend non-essential elements of this Regulation or to supplement this Regulation by the addition of new non-essential elements, they should be adopted in accordance with the regulatory
procedure
with
scrutiny
provided
for
in
Article 5a of Decision 1999/468/EC.
(15) Since the objective of this Regulation, namely the creation
of common statistical standards that permit the production of harmonised data, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary to achieve that objective.
(16) The Statistical Programme Committee has been consulted, HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
## Section I General Provisions Article 1 Subject Matter And Scope
1.
This Regulation establishes a common statistical classifica-
tion of economic activities in the European Community,
hereinafter referred to as 'NACE Rev. 2'. This classification
ensures that Community classifications are relevant to the
(EC) No 1267/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 180, 18.7.2003, p. 1).
(13) OJ L 33, 5.2.2004, p. 1. Regulation as amended by Commission
Regulation (EC) No 909/2006 (OJ L 168, 21.6.2006, p. 14).
(14) OJ L 35, 8.2.2005, p. 23. Regulation as amended by Commission
Regulation (EC) No 602/2006 (OJ L 106, 19.4.2006, p. 10).
(15) OJ L 184, 17.7.1999, p. 23. Decision as amended by Decision
2006/512/EC (OJ L 200, 22.7.2006, p. 11).
economic reality and enhances the comparability of national, Community and international classifications and, hence, of national, Community and international statistics. 2.
This Regulation shall apply only to the use of the classification for statistical purposes.
## Article 2 Nace Rev. 2
1.
NACE Rev. 2 shall include:
(a)
a first level consisting of headings identified by an
alphabetical code (sections);
(b)
a second level consisting of headings identified by a twodigit numerical code (divisions);
(c)
a third level consisting of headings identified by a threedigit numerical code (groups); and
(d)
a fourth level consisting of headings identified by a fourdigit numerical code (classes).
2.
NACE Rev. 2 is set out in Annex I.
## Article 3 Use Of Nace Rev. 2
The Commission shall use NACE Rev. 2 for all statistics classified according to economic activities.
## Article 4 National Classifications Of Economic Activities
1.
Member States' statistics presented according to economic
activities shall be produced using NACE Rev. 2 or a national
classification derived therefrom.
2.
The national classification may introduce additional headings and levels and a different coding may be used. Each of the levels, except for the highest, shall consist of either the same headings as the corresponding NACE Rev. 2 level or headings constituting an exact breakdown thereof. 3.
Member States shall forward to the Commission, for its approval prior to their publication, the drafts defining or modifying their national classifications. The Commission shall check the conformity of these drafts with paragraph 2 within two months. The Commission shall transmit the approved national classification to the other Member States for information. The Member States' national classifications shall include a table of correspondence between the national classifications and NACE Rev. 2. 4.
In the event of incompatibility between certain NACE Rev. 2
headings and the national economic structure, the Commission may authorise a Member State to use an aggregation of NACE Rev. 2 headings in a specific sector. To obtain such an authorisation, the Member State concerned must provide the Commission with all the necessary information to consider its request. The Commission shall decide within three months.
However, notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 2, such
an authorisation shall not entitle the Member State concerned to
subdivide the aggregated headings in a way different from NACE
Rev. 2.
5.
The Commission shall, together with the Member State
concerned, periodically review the authorisations granted under
paragraph 4 to verify whether they remain justified.
## Article 5 Commission Activities
The Commission, in cooperation with the Member States, shall ensure the dissemination, maintenance and promotion of NACE Rev. 2, in particular by:
(a)
drafting, updating and publishing explanatory notes for
NACE Rev. 2;
(b)
drawing up and publishing guidelines for classifying
statistical units in accordance with NACE Rev. 2;
(c)
publishing correspondence tables between NACE Rev. 1.1
and NACE Rev. 2 and between NACE Rev. 2 and NACE Rev. 1.1; and
(d)
working to improve consistency with other social and
economic classifications.
## Article 6 Implementing Measures
1.
The following measures for implementing NACE Rev. 2 shall
be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure referred
to in Article 7(2):
(a)
decisions required in case of problems arising from
implementation of NACE Rev. 2, including the assignment of economic activities to specific classes; and
(b)

2.
Measures relating to NACE Rev. 2 with a view to amending
or supplementing non-essential elements of this Regulation,
which are designed for the following purposes, shall be adopted
in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny
referred to in Article 7(3):
(a)
to take account of technological or economic developments; or
(b)
to align it with other economic and social classifications.

the principle that additional costs and burdens remain within a reasonable limit.

## Annex Ii Outsourcing Nace: Introduction And Background
chapter 1
## 1. Definitions And Rules Of Classification For Units Outsourcing Their Production 1.1. Introduction
In both classifications, ISIC (classification of economic activities of the UN) and NACE, the treatment of units which outsource the transformation process of goods to other units was in some way ambiguous. NACE Rev. 1.1 defined outsourcing as follows. 'Units which sell goods and services under their own name, but arrange for their production by others. These units are classified to Sector G (wholesale and retail) except when they own the legal right and the concept, in which case they are classified as if they produce the goods themselves.'
Although, the definition seemed clear, the concept of ownership of legal right or concept was not always interpreted in the same way. In fact, some Member States did not take into account outsourcing when classifying units according to NACE and those who took it into account did not always use the same criteria for the classification, and therefore the statistics were not completely comparable. In an attempt to tackle this lack of comparability the Expert Group and the Technical Subgroup of the Expert Group on International Economic and Social Classifications, at their meeting held in New York from 16 to 20 April 2007 agreed, for ISIC Rev. 4, that units which completely outsource the transformation process should be classified in manufacturing only if they own the raw material used as input to the production process. This rule was included in the introductory guidelines to NACE Rev. 2, which were endorsed by the SPC at their 62nd meeting in May 2008. Nevertheless, at the same meeting, the SPC mentioned the need to carefully consider the implications of the rules on outsourcing activities (points 80 to 84) with a view to ensuring coherent implementation. The concerns of the SPC were mainly on the clarity of definitions and on the need for unambiguous rules for classification of units. It was equally mentioned that best practices for a timely update of the business registers should be identified. In order to answer to these concerns, Eurostat set up a task force composed of experts from Germany, France, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Austria, Poland, Portugal and the United Kingdom which met first time on 27 and 28 September 2007 to tackle these issues. This annex is the output from this task force and includes the comments from the members of the NACE/CPA working group, who were consulted after the meeting of the task force. The UN Economic Statistics and Classifications Section was also consulted.
## Terminology Outsourcing
Contractual agreement according to which the > *principal* requires the > *contractor* to carry out specific tasks, such as parts of a production process or even the full production process, employment services or support functions.
The term outsourcing is also valid if the > *contractor* is a subsidiary unit and if the tasks are carried out on market conditions or not.
The > *principal* and the > *contractor* may be located within the same economic territory or in different economic territories.
The actual location does not affect the classification of either one of these unit.
## Principal
Unit that enters into a contractual relationship with another unit (> *contractor*) for that other unit to carry out specific tasks, such as parts of a production process or even the full production process, employment services or support functions.
## Contractor
Unit that carries out specific tasks, such as parts of a production process or even the full production process, employment services or support functions on a contractual relationship with a > *principal*. The term *sub-contractor* is also used. In NACE
the activities performed by the > *contractor* are denominated "on a fee or contract basis"
.
## Manufacturing Activities
The physical and/or chemical transformation of materials, substances or components into new products. The material, substances or components are raw materials which are product of agriculture, forestry, fishing or mining as well as products and semi-finished products of other manufacturing activities.
## Sub-Contractor
See > contractor
## 1.2 Classification Rules
These rules set out how to classify the outsourcing activities of principals and contractors, as defined in 1.2 Terminology above. It is important to note that the rules apply only to the classification of the outsourcing activities and that where principals or contractors are also involved in other activities, their overall activity classification must be determined by applying the value added principles set out in paragraphs 60 to 79 (as numbered in the NACE Rev. 2 introductory guidelines) to all of their activities.
## Outsourcing Of Parts Of A Manufacturing Production Process
A principal delegates a part of a manufacturing production process to a contractor.
## Classification Rules
The principal has to be classified as if were carrying out the complete production process. The contractor is classified with units producing the same goods or services for their own account.
## Outsourcing Of The Complete Manufacturing Production Process (I)
A principal who owns the main material inputs sub-contracts the complete manufacturing production process of products to another unit.
## Classification Rules
The principal who owns the main material inputs (e.g. textiles and buttons for the production of apparel, wood and metal accessories for the manufacture of furniture) and thereby owns the final outputs, but who has the production carried out by contractors, is classified in section C (Manufacturing), specifically to the class that corresponds the full production process. The contractor is classified with units producing the same goods for their own account.
## Outsourcing Of The Complete Manufacturing Production Process (Ii)
A principal who doesn't own the material inputs sub-contracts the complete manufacturing of products to another unit.
## Classification Rules
The principal that has the production carried out by others and that does not own the material inputs, should be classified in section G "Wholesale and trade" (depending on the activity and the specific good sold) if it only carries out this activity. If he carries out other activities, it should be classified in accordance with the value added principle: this might be in section G or in other sections. The contractor is classified with units producing the same goods for their own account.
## Outsourcing Of Construction Activities
A principal sub-contracts the construction work to other units, but remains overall responsible for the construction process.
## Classification Rules
Both the principal and the contractors are classified in section F (Construction), specifically to the class that corresponds to the construction activities carried out.
## Outsourcing Of Support Functions
A principal carries out the whole or a part of the production process (of a good or a service) but delegates certain support functions, such as accounting or computer services, to a contractor. These support functions are not part of the core production process, they do not directly lead to the final good or service, but support the general functioning of the principal as a production unit.
## Classification Rules
The principal is classified to the same NACE code that represents the core production process. The contractor is classified to the specific activity he is carrying out, e.g. class 69.20 (Accounting, bookkeeping and auditing activities; tax consultancy), class 62.02 (Computer consultancy activities) etc.
## Outsourcing Of Employment Services
In the case of outsourcing of employment services a distinction should be drawn between outsourcing on a temporary or on long-term and permanent basis.
## Classification Rules
a) In outsourcing on a temporary basis, the principal is classified on the basis of the activity actually performed (e.g. manufacturing). The contractor is classified in class 78.20 (Temporary employment agency activities).
m
b) In outsourcing on a long-ter
or permanent basis, the principal is classified on the basis of the activity actually performed (e.g. manufacturing). The contractor is classified in class 78.30 (Other human resources provision).
## Outsourcing Of Service-Producing Activities
The principal sub-contracts a part or the complete provision of services (excepted support functions, see rule "Outsourcing of support functions" above) to another unit.
## Classification Rules
a) The principal who outsources a part of the service-producing activities has to be classified as if were provisioning the
whole service process. The contractor is classified according to the portion of the services provision he is undertaking.
b) If the principal sub-contracts the whole services activity, both the principal and the contractor are classified as if they
were carrying out the complete services activity.
## Outsourcing Of The Complete Agricultural Or Animal Production Process (I)
A principal who owns the seeds or the plants (seedlings, cuttings, sprays) or the fruit trees (including grapevines) or herds of animals sub-contracts the complete agricultural or animal production process of agricultural products to another unit.
## Classification Rules
The principal who owns the seeds or the plants (seedlings, cuttings, sprays) or the fruit trees (including grapevines) or herds of animals and thereby owns the final outputs, but who has the production carried out by contractors, is classified in division 01, specifically to the class that covers the full production process. The contractor is classified in the appropriate class of group 01.6.
## Outsourcing Of The Complete Agriculture Or Animal Production Process (Ii)
A principal who doesn't own the seeds or the plants (seedlings, cuttings, sprays) or the fruit trees (including grapevines)
or herds of animals sub-contracts the complete production process to another unit.
## Classification Rules
The principal who has the production carried out by others and who does not own the seeds or the plants (seedlings, cuttings, sprays) or the fruit trees (including grapevines) or herds of animals, is classified in section G "Wholesale and trade" (depending on the activity and the specific good sold) if he only carries out this activity. If he carries out other activities, he should be classified in accordance with the value added principle: this might be in section G or in other sections. The contractor is classified with units producing the same goods for their own account.
## Outsourcing Of The Complete Forestry Production Process (I)
A principal who owns the trees sub-contracts the complete forestry production process of forest products to another unit.
## Classification Rules
The principal who owns the trees and thereby owns the final outputs, but who has the production carried out by contractors, is classified in division 02, specifically to the class that covers the full production process. The contractor is classified in class 02.40.
## Outsourcing Of The Complete Forestry Production Process (Ii)
A principal who doesn't own the trees sub-contracts the complete production process to another unit.

## Itto3 Forest Sector Questionnaire
Miscellaneous Items
(use additional paper if necessary)
1 Please enter current import tariff rates applied to tropical and non-tropical timber products. If available, please provide tariffs by the relevant customs classification category. If tariff levels have been reported
in previous years, enter changes only. (Logs = JQ code 1.2, Sawn = JQ code 5, Veneer = JQ code 6.1, and Plywood = JQ code 6.2)
2 Please comment on any quotas, incentives, disincentives, tariff/non-tariff barriers or other related factors which now or in future will significantly affect your production and trade of tropical timber products.
3 Please elaborate on any short or medium term plans for expanding capacity for (further) processing of tropical timber products in your country.
4 Please indicate any trends or changes expected in the species composition of your trade. How important are lesser-used tropical timber species and/or minor tropical forest products?
5 Please indicate trends in domestic building activity, housing starts, mortgage/interest rates, substitution of non-tropical wood and/or non-wood products for tropical timbers, and any other domestic factors
having a significant impact on tropical timber consumption in your country.
6 Please indicate the extent of foreign involvement in your timber sector (e.g. number and nationalities of concessionaires/mill (joint) owners, area of forest allocated, scale of investment, etc.).
7 Please provide details of any relevant forest law enforcement activities (e.g. legilation, fines, arrests, etc.) in your country in the past year.
8 Please indicate the current extent of forest plantations in your country (ha), annual establishment rate (ha/yr) and proportion of industrial roundwood production from plantations.

Notes: The term "ex" means that there is not a complete correlation between the two codes and that only a part of the HS96/HS2002 or SITC Rev.3 code is applicable. For instance "ex 44.03.99" under product 1.2.NC.T means that only a part of HS96/HS2002 code 44.03.99 refers to tropical industrial roundwood. Many tropical timber products contain "ex" codes in the above list as the Harmonized System of customs classification explicitly recognizes less than 100 tropical timber species. Species not explicitly recognized as tropical in the HS are grouped in "others" categories with non-tropical, non-coniferous timbers that are likewise not explicitly recognized by the HS (e.g. 44.07.99). Estimates of tropical timber trade totals therefore require that these "others" categories be analyzed to ascertain how much of the total was sourced from tropical countries. In HS96/HS2002, 0 in the final (fourth or sixth) position means that all sub-headings are included: 44.08.30 includes 44.08.31 and 44.08.39. In SITC Rev.3, if only 4 digits are shown, then all sub-headings at lower degrees of aggregation are included: 634.1 includes 634.11 and 634.12

## Notes:
The term "ex" means that there is not a complete correlation between the two codes and that only a part of the HS96/HS2002 or SITC Rev.3 code is applicable. For instance "ex 811.00" under "Prefabricated buildings - of which made of wood" means that only a part of SITC code 811.00 refers to buildings prefabricated from wood, as that code does not distinguish between the materials buildings were prefabricated from.
In HS96/HS2002, 0 in the final (fourth or sixth) position means that all sub-headings are included: 49.00 includes all positions from 49.01 to 49.11. In SITC Rev.3, if only 4 digits are shown, then all subheadings at lower degrees of aggregation are included: 892.2 includes 892.21 and 892.29 | en |

## Key Issues Of The Decision 1 Our Decision Based On The Information Currently Available To Us We Are Currently Minded To Issue A
permit to the Applicant. This would, if issued, allow it to operate the Installation, subject to the conditions in the Permit.
We consider that, in reaching that decision, we have taken into account all relevant considerations and legal requirements and that the permit will ensure that a high level of protection is provided for the environment and human health.
This Application is to operate an installation which is subject principally to the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED).
The permit contains many conditions taken from our standard Environmental Permit template including the relevant Annexes. We developed these conditions in consultation with industry, having regard to the legal requirements of the Environmental Permitting Regulations and other relevant legislation. This document does not therefore include an explanation for these standard conditions. Where they are included in the permit, we have considered the Application and accepted the details are sufficient and satisfactory to make the standard conditions appropriate.
## 2 How We Reached Our Decision 2.1 Receipt Of Application
The Application was accepted as duly made on 7 February 2017. This means we considered it was in the correct form and contained sufficient information for us to begin our determination, but not that it necessarily contained all the information we would need to complete that determination. The Applicant made no claim for commercial confidentiality. We have not received information in relation to the Application that appears to be confidential in relation to any party.
## 2.2 Consultation On The Application
We carried out consultation on the Application in accordance with the EPR, our statutory Public Participation Statement (PPS) and our Regulatory Guidance. Furthermore we have also considered the Well-Being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 and the Environment (Wales) Act 2016 during our assessment process. We advertised the Application by a notice placed on our website, which contained all the information required by the IED, including telling people where and when they could see a copy of the Application. Details placed on the website on 3/3/17 until 31/3/17. A copy of the Application and all other documents relevant to our determination (see below) are available for the public to view. Anyone wishing to see these documents could arrange for copies to be made. We sent copies of the Application to the following bodies, which includes those with whom we have "Working Together Agreements":
Wrexham County Borough Council Planning Department
Wrexham County Borough Council Environmental Protection
Department
Food Standards Agency Health and Safety Executive Health Protection Agency Public Health Wales
Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board
These are bodies whose expertise, democratic accountability and/or local knowledge make it appropriate for us to seek their views directly. Further details along with a summary of consultation comments and our response to the representations we received can be found in Annex 3. We have taken all relevant representations into consideration in reaching our determination. We are now carrying out a consultation on our draft decision.
## 2.3 Requests For Further Information
Further information was requested by way of two Schedule 5 Notice requiring further information on odour modelling, odour emissions, the Effluent Treatment Plant, Bird numbers to be stored and effluent containment. The first Schedule 5 Notice was sent on 20/03/17 with a response date of 20/5/17. The second Schedule 5 Notice was sent on 7/04/17 with a response date of 7/5/17. The Applicants response to both Schedule 5 Notices was provided on 19/04/17. The additional information supplied satisfied the requirements of the Schedule 5 notices. A copy of the information notice and e-mails requesting further information were placed on our public register as were the responses when received.
## 3 The Legal Framework The Permit Will Be Granted, Under Regulation 13 Of The Epr. The Environmental
Permitting regime is a legal vehicle which delivers most of the relevant legal requirements for activities falling within its scope. In particular, the regulated facility is:
an *installation* as described by the IED; subject to aspects of the Well-Being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015
and the Environment (Wales) Act 2016 which also have to be addressed.
We address the legal requirements directly where relevant in the body of this document. NRW is satisfied that this decision is consistent with its general purpose of pursuing the sustainable management of natural resources in relation to Wales, and applying the principles of sustainable management of natural resources. In particular, NRW acknowledges that it is a principle of sustainable management to take action to prevent significant damage to ecosystems. We consider that, in granting the Permit a high level of protection will be delivered for the environment and human health through the operation of the Installation in accordance with the permit conditions.
## 4 The Installation 4.1 Description Of The Installation And Related Issues 4.1.1 The Permitted Activities
The Installation is subject to the EPR because it carries out an activity listed in Part 1
of Schedule 1 of the EPR:
Slaughtering of animals at a plant with a carcass production capacity of more than 50 tonnes per day
Treating and processing of animal raw materials intended for the production of food with a finished product production capacity of more than 75 tonnes per day.
Disposal of non hazardous waste in a facility with a capacity of more than 50 tonnes
per day by biological treatment.
An installation may also comprise "directly associated activities", which at this Installation includes:
Chemical scrubber treating air extracted from odorous parts of the S6.8 A1 (b) process.
Storage of chemicals for use on site.
Chilling of carcasses and processed meats.
Burning fuel in a combustion plant to heat water.
Temporary storage of wastes on site prior to removal.
Together, these listed and directly associated activities comprise the Installation. 4.1.2 The Site The site is constructed on the site of a previous factory about 4km south east from Wrexham. It has good vehicular access and is situated away from any densely populated areas in an agricultural area. The full extent of the site is shown in Schedule 7 of the permit.
## 4.1.3 What The Installation Does
The installation receives live chickens and slaughters them, processes them and exports the products. The site also treats the effluent produced, before discharging the treated effluent to the river Dee.
## 4.1.4 Key Issues In The Determination
The control of odours emitted from the site and the potential for these to impact nearby sensitive receptors. Discussed in more detail below.
The impact of emissions from the site to impact the river Dee. Discussed in more detail below.
The potential for accidental escapes of liquids stored on site to reach the river Dee.
## 4.2 The Site And Its Protection
4.2.1 Proposed site design: potentially polluting substances and prevention measures
The containment of potentially polluting substances was also given scrutiny. The applicant has provided details of the containment of liquids, including specification of the physical containment and of monitoring and control systems. In addition additional measures were provided to monitor containment at the effluent treatment plant and to contain any leakages.
## 4.2.2 Closure And Decommissioning
Permit condition 1.1.1 requires the Operator to have a written management system in place which identifies and minimises risks of pollution including those arising from closure. At the definitive cessation of activities, the Operator has to satisfy us that the necessary measures have been taken so that the site ceases to pose a risk to soil or groundwater, taking into account both the baseline conditions and the site's current or approved future use. To do this, the Operator has to apply to us for surrender, which we will not grant unless and until we are satisfied that these requirements have been met.
## 4.3 Operation Of The Installation - General Issues 4.3.1 Administrative Issues
The Applicant is the sole Operator of the Installation. We are satisfied that the Applicant is the person who will have control over the operation of the Installation if the Permit were to be granted; and that the Applicant will be able to operate the Installation so as to comply with the conditions included in the Permit, if issued. We are satisfied that the Applicant's submitted OPRA profile is accurate. The OPRA score will be used as the basis for subsistence and other charging, in accordance with our Charging Scheme. OPRA is Natural Resources Wales method of ensuring application and subsistence fees are appropriate and proportionate for the level of regulation required.
## 4.3.2 Management The Applicant Has Stated In The Application That They Will Implement An Environmental
Management System (EMS) that will meet the requirements for an EMS in our "How to comply with your environmental permit guidance". The Applicant submitted a summary of the EMS with their application. We are satisfied that appropriate management systems and management structures will be in place for this Installation, and that sufficient resources are available to the Operator to ensure compliance with all the Permit conditions. A pre-operational condition has been included in the permit to require a report on the implementation of the EMS.
## 4.3.4 Accident Management
An Emergency response plan is being incorporated into the EMS. In addition the operator has included additional measures to prevent and to detect escapes of potentially polluting liquids from storage tanks within the site (specifically in the Effluent Treatment Plant).
4.3.3 Site security
Having considered the information submitted in the Application, we are satisfied that appropriate infrastructure and procedures will be in place prior to start up to ensure that the site remains secure.
## 4.3.5 Off-Site Conditions
No Off site conditions were required.
## 4.3.6 Operating Techniques
The operator has provided comprehensive details of operating techniques and compared these with the relevant BAT standards. This shows that the proposed operating techniques meet or exceed the BAT standards.
## 4.3.7 Energy Efficiency
We are satisfied that the Applicant will ensure that energy is used in the most efficient way possible. The Operator is required to report energy usage under condition 4.2 and Schedule 4. The following parameters are required to be reported: Energy usage per bird. This will enable Natural Resources Wales to monitor energy recovery efficiency at the Installation
4.3.8 Avoidance, recovery or disposal of wastes produced by the activities
This requirement addresses wastes produced at the facility. The animal by-products element of the "waste" production is managed to efficiently collect these materials, blood, feathers and offal. Edible offal, heart, lungs, necks, gizzards and feet is recovered and sold. Non edible offal is removed to a licensed facility.
The operator has identified all other waste arisings into individual waste streams and ensured suitable re-use and recycling as appropriate.
.
Having considered the information submitted in the Application, we are satisfied that the waste hierarchy referred to in Article 4 of the WFD will be applied to the generation of waste and that any waste generated will be treated in accordance with this Article. We are satisfied that waste from the Installation that cannot be recovered will be disposed of offsite using a method that minimises any impact on the environment. Permit condition 1.4.1 will ensure that this position is maintained.
## 5 Minimising The Installation'S Environmental Impact Regulated Activities Can Present Different Types Of Risk To The Environment, These
include odour, noise and vibration; accidents, fugitive emissions to air and water; as well as point source releases to air, discharges to ground or groundwater, global warming potential and generation of waste. All these factors are discussed in this and other sections of this document. For an installation of this kind, the principal emissions are : emissions of odour to atmosphere and emission of treated effluent to the river. The next sections of this document explain how we have approached the critical issue of assessing the likely impact of emissions from the Installation on human health and the environment and what measures we are requiring to ensure a high level of protection.
## 5.1 Assessment Of Impact On Air Quality
This section of the decision document deals primarily with the dispersion modelling of emissions to air from the stack and its impact on local air quality.
The Applicant has assessed the Installation's potential emissions to air against the relevant air quality standards, and the potential impact upon human health. These assessments predict the potential effects on local air quality from the Installation's stack emission. The air impact assessment has been based on the Installation operating continuously at the relevant long-term or short-term emission limit values, i.e. the maximum permitted emission rate. The air emissions are very low, as the principal issue with emissions is odour rather than specific contaminants. The four on-site boilers are small and are gas fired, with a combined capacity of 3.68 MW (including standby boiler). The applicant carried out an H1 risk assessment and the emissions screened out from the need for modelling.
## 5.2 Assessment Of Odour Impact
As part of the application, the applicant supplied an odour impact assessment. This was produced by specialist consultants and included odour dispersion modelling. We scrutinised this modelling and requested further information. The further information was sought to substantiate both the intensity of the odour and the offensiveness of the odour.
These details were considered in detail and reviewed in house by specialist modelling team. We were satisfied with the details provided and that the odours will not result in unacceptable off site odours. However as a precaution we have included within the permit an improvement condition to require monitoring of odours and re-modelling of the impacts, as well as further improvements should this prove necessary. In addition the standard odour condition is included in the permit.
## 5.3 Assessment Of Impact To Surface And Ground Water
Based upon the information in the application we are satisfied that the appropriate measures will be in place to prevent pollution of ground and surface water. The applicant submitted detailed modelling to show the proposed emissions to the river dee. These were reviewed by specialist modellers within NRW. The emissions were found to be satisfactory and not of concern for water quality in the Dee. The permit has been conditioned with limits on the quality and quantity of effluent that can be discharged.
## 5.4 Emissions To Sewer
None.
## 5.5 Fugitive Emissions
Fugitive emissions were scrutinised in detail due to the potential for odours to be carried off site. The operator has proposed measures to contain emissions and pass the to a few specified emission points.
Based upon the information in the application we are satisfied that the appropriate measures will be in place to prevent or where that is not practicable to minimise fugitive emissions and to prevent pollution from fugitive emissions.
## 5.6 Noise Assessment
The applicant has carried out a noise impact assessment and noise management plan as part of the planning application and provided details of these with the permit application. No noise or vibration concerns were identified. As a precautionary measure the standard noise and vibration permit conditions have been included in the permit.
5.7
Impact on Habitats sites, SSSIs, non-statutory conservation sites etc A form 1 was completed to record and assess potential impacts on two SAC sites and one Ramsar site. This proceeded to demonstrate that the proposed installation, when considered in combination with other potential sources did not present any likely significant effect.
## 6 Setting Elvs And Other Permit Conditions 6.1 Translating Bat Into Permit Conditions
Article 14(3) of IED states that BAT conclusions shall be the reference for permit conditions. Article 15(3) further requires that under normal operating conditions; emissions do not exceed the emission levels associated with the best available techniques as laid down in the decisions on BAT conclusions.
## 6.2 Monitoring We Have Decided That Monitoring Should Be Carried Out For The Parameters Listed In
Schedule 3 using the methods and to the frequencies specified in those tables. These monitoring requirements have been imposed in order to demonstrate that the Effluent treatment plant is working in accordance with assumptions. Based on the information in the Application and the requirements set in the conditions of the permit we are satisfied that the monitoring techniques, personnel and equipment employed by the Operator will have either MCERTS certification or MCERTS accreditation as appropriate.
## 6.3 Reporting We Have Specified The Reporting Requirements In Schedule 4 Of The Permit To Ensure
data is reported to enable timely review by Natural Resources Wales to ensure compliance with permit conditions and to monitor the efficiency of material use and waste recovery at the installation.
## Annex 1: Pre-Operational Conditions Two Pre-Operational Conditions Have Been Included In The Permit. These Require The
operator to submit a written report on their Environmental Management Systems and an updated site drainage plan before the site becomes operational. The operator is already in the process of drawing up these documents and must supply them before the site is operational.
## Annex 2: Improvement Conditions The Permit Includes Three Improvement Conditions. These Relate To Odour Emissions
from the facility. They require the operator to carry out a survey of odours once the facility is fully operational so that modelled odour predictions can be verified. They also require further improvements to reduce odour (should the monitoring show potential problems).
## Annex 3: Consultation Reponses A) Advertising And Consultation On The Application
The Application has been advertised and consulted upon in accordance with Natural Resources Wales Public Participation Statement. The way in which this has been carried out along with the results of our consultation and how we have taken consultation responses into account in reaching our draft decision is summarised in this Annex. Copies of all consultation responses have been placed on Natural Resources Wales public register.
1) Consultation Responses from Statutory and Non-Statutory Bodies
## Response Received From Brief Summary Of Issues Raised: Summary Of Action Taken / How This Has Been Covered
2) Consultation Responses from Members of the Public and Community Organisations
A number of the issues raised during the consultation process are outside Natural Resources Wales remit in reaching its permitting decisions. Specifically questions were raised which fall within the jurisdiction of the planning system, both on the development of planning policy and the grant of planning permission. Specific planning issues raised related to the location of the site, the location of the stack, traffic movements and emissions from off-site traffic movements. Guidance on the interaction between planning and pollution control is given in PPS23 / Planning Policy Wales. It says that the planning and pollution control systems are separate but complementary. We are only able to take into account those issues, which fall within regulatory scope of the Environmental Permitting Regulations.

## Pay Policy Statement: 2019/20
## 1. Introduction & Purpose
This Pay Policy Statement sets out the council's approach to pay policy in accordance with the requirements of Section 38 of the Localism Act 2011 and due regard to the associated Statutory Guidance including the Supplementary Statutory Guidance issued in February 2013 and the Local Government Transparency Code 2015.
Section 112 of the Local Government Act 1972 gives local authorities the power to appoint officers on such reasonable terms and conditions as the authority thinks fit, the pay policy sets out how the council exercises this power.
The purpose of the statement is to provide transparency with regards to the council's approach to setting the pay of its employees by identifying:
the methods by which salaries of employees are determined; the detail and level of remuneration of our most senior staff i.e. 'chief officers',
at Assistant Director level and above.
## Once Approved By Full Council This Policy Statement Will Come Into Immediate Effect And Will Be Subject To Review On An Annual Basis. 2. Scope Of The Pay Policy Statement
The statement relates to employees of Salford City Council whose remuneration, including rate of pay and terms and conditions, are determined by and within the control of the authority. It therefore does not apply to:
All employees working in schools; Individuals employed by a third party contracted to work for the authority i.e.
agency workers;
Employees on secondment where their rates of pay or terms and conditions
are not determined by the authority;
Individuals employed through the authority on behalf of a third party where
remuneration and other terms and conditions are not determined by the Authority;
Volunteers or work experience placements.
## 3. Other Matters Relating To Pay Arrangements
The council takes steps to ensure that there is no pay discrimination within its pay structures and in determining the pay and remuneration of all of its employees, complies with all relevant employment legislation. This includes legislation such as the Employment Rights Act 1996, Equality Act 2010, Part Time Employment (Prevention of Less Favourable Treatment) Regulations 2000 and where relevant, the obligation to protect salaries under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations. In determining its grading structure and setting remuneration levels, the council takes account of the need to ensure value for money in respect of the use of public expenditure, balanced against the need to recruit and retain employees who are able to meet the requirements of providing high quality services to the community, delivered effectively and efficiently and at times at which those services are required. 4.
Context Salford City Council is going through a period of significant growth, reform and transformation as a result of a number of political, economic and social drivers and challenges, national and local, some of which are identified below. We recognise the need for flexibility to be able to respond to a changing landscape and our pay policy arrangements have been developed to reflect this.
Mayoral Priorities - The Great Eight
Salford has changed and is continuing to change; at the heart of our approach are ambitious plans to transform Salford into a modern global city where we can all make a real difference to the lives of Salford people. By delivering our 'Great Eight'
priorities we will achieve our vision for a better and fairer Salford. Our vision is underpinned by these priorities of tackling poverty and inequality, education and skills, health and social care, economic development, housing, transport, a transparent effective organisation and social impact. Tackling poverty is key to delivering our vision, as one of the largest employers in the city we have a role to play as an exemplar for the wider Salford workforce. With 60% of our employees resident in the city the Council has a key role to play in setting an equitable pay structure, preventing people from falling into poverty through our approach to pay, and ensuring that those in the lowest paid jobs receive a fair living wage.
The Anti-Poverty strategy, 'No One Left Behind' creates a vision for a fairer and more inclusive Salford, where everyone is able to reach their full potential and live prosperous and fulfilling lives free from poverty and inequality. Low pay is recognised as a key cause of poverty and ensuring that wages and income levels are fair and appropriate, enables residents to fully participate in the life of the community. To help achieve this vision, collective efforts are focussed on the activities likely to have the most substantial and long lasting impact in reducing poverty in the city.
## Social Value
Salford as a city is one of the leading areas nationally for building social value. The creation of the Social Value Alliance, Social Value pledge and online toolkit ensures that the social impact of activity across the city is understood and prioritised. Salford City Council produced its first social value policy and impact report in 2017 and we are now looking at the progress made against all of our pledges and showing how we are using social value for a better and fairer Salford.
Our mission is to continue to look at the relevant and additional social, environmental and economic value from everything that we do, including service delivery, commissioning and procurement. Salford City Council is committed to continuing to deliver the Social Value Alliance 10% Better Campaign outcomes, develop a values based ethos, promote leadership around social value and collaborate with others to maximise the benefit to Salford from social impact.
Employment Standards Charter The City Council sets the standard as an exemplar employer and must ensure that all our remuneration and employment policies, procedures and practices reflect our Employment Standards Charter. Leading the way we will promote the Foundation Living Wage as a minimum standard, access to training and development, no zero hours contracts, and no blacklisting policy to employers across the city creating growth and prosperity.
Fiscal challenges We need to ensure provision of services within a significantly reduced and ever-reducing financial envelope, which in turn requires a continuing reduction in workforce numbers and service redesign. Balanced with the continuing need to attract and retain talent in the workforce.
Reform Set in the context of reducing resources and growth in the city, together with the challenge we have set ourselves to do things 'quicker, easier and better,' we need to develop new ways of working with our partners, residents and vibrant voluntary and community sector to make the best use of the city's collective resource. To achieve this we need a flexible, skilled, customer focused, motivated and outcomes focused workforce with the right values base that is empowered to innovate and 'take charge' of how they deliver services. We will continue to transform our services to the public with the Greater Manchester model of public service delivery being central to our work at a regional and local level. A place-based and person centred approach continues to drive reform at a locality and neighbourhood level. Salford's Locality Plan sets out our strategic approach to improving health and care outcomes for residents of the city. The health and care workforce comprises a significant proportion of the working population of Salford as a whole and therefore workforce transformation is a key priority over the next five years.
Salford is aiming to become a Digital City, an ambition which supports the vision for a better, fairer Salford to improve our residents' lives. We are strongly committed to digital inclusion - making sure that residents and our workforce have the digital capability to maximise the use of technology and the internet. Salford is proud to have been named Overall DL100 Winner 2018 (Digital Leaders) and Digital Council of the Year at the prestigious DL100 awards ceremony. This has become the premier list identifying individuals and teams leading digital transformation in the UK. Salford won both awards for its bold ambitions and innovations in the way it is digitally transforming services to the public.
The appointment of a City Chief Digital Officer (CDO) to lead the digital transformation of Salford is a clear indication of our ambition and desire to build networks and relationships across the wider region. Salford also has aspirations to become a Digital Council. We are using digital transformation to ensure services are quicker, easier and better for everyone through the introduction of a transactional website and webchat to many other new and exciting digital developments, the council is empowering residents and improving access to information and services. We also want to make sure no one is left behind as digital becomes the way to access services, communicate with organisations, and interact with friends and family. Working with Good Things Foundation to deliver Digital You, our landmark digital inclusion project across the city to help the most disadvantaged residents gain the confidence and capability to become independent users of computers and the internet. Digital is fundamental to how modern society works - 90% of new jobs require digital skills, and our health, wellbeing and social lives are increasingly underpinned by digital tools and resources. Our programmes of reform at a place and regional level are changing how we currently operate, how we shape our workforce and adopt new ways of working. This has required a different approach to how we organise and design our services. Changes at an organisational level mean that we operate less through formal structures and more about bringing together officers across the council to deliver effective cross cutting outcome projects. This enables employees to come together in to project teams if they are the right person, regardless of their day to day role - to get the job done. Our service reform directorate puts reform at the core of the organisation and brings together enabling functions to drive change in line with our redesign approach. This centres on true co-design and co-production and engagement with all stakeholders ensuring all have a voice and input in to designing services. Leaders are challenged to empower employees to change what gets in the way allowing those who do the work to own and lead the change. This approach also reflects the important role of technology, end user involvement (employees and residents), and understanding the user experience and customer journey as part of the redesign of our services. This approach will continue to ensure that our workforce is connected with, and delivers on the vision, themes and priorities of the City Council.
Leading Salford The role of Leaders continues to change with expectations of leading in a whole place and system as well as within and on behalf of the City Council. The #LeadingSalford leadership framework has been developed with clear expectations of leaders and managers in Salford.
This framework builds on the Greater Manchester leadership expectations and has provided clarity of expectations in terms of how leaders and managers operate and their behaviours. It is underpinned by a consistent approach to leadership development and has been designed to enable everybody to understand what it means to be a leader in Salford.
Managers are the single most important factor in employee engagement, motivation, building a productive workplace and employee retention. Effective leaders and managers are critical to the success of reforming public services and therefore investment in developing their skills is essential.
Growth in the City
The city has seen exceptional levels of growth over recent years. More people than ever before are choosing Salford as a place to live, work, invest and visit. The council is concerned to ensure that wages (salaries) in the city can sustain families and individuals and underpin a thriving economy. Our new local pay model ensures a minimum hourly rate of £9.25 for those on graduate programmes and higher level apprenticeships with a minimum hourly rate for all other Council employees of £9.44 from 1st April 2019. These rates are significantly higher than the Foundation Living Wage of £9.00 per hour. The Council does however continue to use its influence as a civic leader to encourage others to pay the living wage - with the ultimate aim of leading Salford to becoming a living wage city. This aim is supported by the charter for employment standards which sets the benchmark for working conditions in the council as an exemplar employer and for other employers across the city including the living wage.
5.
Workforce Strategy
The vision for our future workforce together with the framework and approaches required to achieve this are outlined in our Workforce Strategy. The strategy is designed to support the council to develop a skilled and motivated workforce to deliver our mission to create the best quality of life for the people of Salford. It is only through our people that we will realise these ambitions for the city. The Workforce Strategy is being refreshed in line with the Great Eight priorities and the public service reform agenda from 2019 onwards. This strategy sets out how we are leading the way to make Salford a great place to work. It includes how we intend to develop our talent, embed flexible and smart working practices, improve wellbeing, inclusion, performance and digital skills, reshape our workforce to encourage innovation and creativity, and to embed values-based leadership and a positive permission culture.
The strategy aims to support the City Council in achieving the skilled, motivated, flexible and diverse workforce needed to deliver placed based, integrated services that make a difference to the people of Salford. We recognise that our success as an organisation is dependent on the commitment, dedication and approach of every person that works across the system with the Spirit of Salford and values at the heart of everything we do.
Our core values are;
Pride
I'm proud of and committed to our city, its people, our work, and I demonstrate the 'Spirit of Salford' in everything I do.
Passion
I am optimistic and ambitious for the city and its people, being creative and positive about change and making the most of opportunities.
People
I respect and care for others, treating everyone fairly, listening and acting on the things people say.
Personal Responsibility
I am honest, taking responsibility and ownership for my actions and decisions and using resources that I am trusted with wisely. The values inform the way we operate and influence our choices, behaviours, how we make decisions and transform services.
By putting the values into practice individuals demonstrate personal commitment to 'be the best they can be' in the way that they do their jobs, provide quality services, deliver the priorities and make a difference to the people of Salford.
## 6. Pay Strategy And Salary Structure
As one of the largest employers in the city the council is mindful of the impact of its employment and remuneration policies and practices on the local economy and communities. The proportion of council employees (excluding schools) who live in the city as of January 2019 is around 60%. This means that they not only serve the people of Salford but are also direct recipients of council services and contribute to the local economy. It is vital therefore that the council remains an exemplar employer through its employment frameworks and practices and is seen as an 'employer of choice' to attract and retain employees of a high calibre throughout the organisation.
The council's approach includes:
The internal operation of the Employment Standards Charter which sets out
minimum employment standards (including the living wage) and encouraging its adoption by other organisations securing fair remuneration and employment practices across the city.
Delivery of the Workforce Strategy objectives. Managing changes in workforce numbers, roles, skills and working patterns to meet
changes in service delivery models by further developing the internal labour market through talent management, development of the creating capacity programme, maximising the opportunities provided through the apprentice levy, succession planning and career pathways.
Through the City Council's reform agenda, adopting a change management approach
to service redesign, which focuses on employee engagement and involvement in the
redesign of the services that they deliver. To ensure organisational agility this approach centres on the purpose, functions and outcomes for services, rather than how they are currently organised and structured. This approach to organisation design will enable the council to effectively adapt and respond to change whilst also developing and shaping the workforce for the future.
In determining its grading structure and setting remuneration levels, the council takes account of the need to ensure value for money in respect of the use of public expenditure, balanced against the need to recruit and retain employees who are able to meet the requirements of providing high quality services to the community, delivered effectively and efficiently and at times at which those services are required. The council will use flexible and innovative approaches to workforce planning through its Creating Capacity programme together with maximising the opportunities which the apprentice levy brings, developing skills, capacity and opportunities for progression combined with the creation of entry level opportunities and apprenticeships.
Salary structure
The council uses the nationally negotiated pay spine (i.e. a defined list of salary points) as the basis for the pay structure in place to determine the salaries of the majority of its (non-teaching) workforce, together with the use of locally determined rates where these do not apply.
The council adopts the national pay bargaining arrangements in respect of the establishment and revision of the national pay spine, for example through any agreed annual pay increases negotiated through the National Joint Councils.
All other pay related allowances are the subject of either nationally or locally negotiated rates, having been determined from time to time in accordance with collective bargaining machinery. New appointments will normally be made at the minimum of the relevant pay scale for the grade, although this can be varied where necessary to secure the best candidate within the parameters of the salary scale as determined via the job evaluation process. The decision on the salary to be offered will be delegated to the appointment panel for the post. From time to time it may be necessary to take account of the external pay levels in the labour market in order to attract and retain employees with particular experience, skills and capacity. Where necessary, the council will ensure the requirement for such is objectively justified by reference to clear and transparent evidence of relevant market comparators, using data sources available from within the local government sector and outside, as appropriate and in line with the agreed Market Enhancement Policy. In addition, any temporary supplement (honorarium) to the salary scale for the grade is approved in line with the Scheme of Delegation and Council Constitution.
7.
National Joint Council for Local Government Employees (NJC) Pay and Grading Arrangements
Posts under NJC terms and conditions are all evaluated through the nationally agreed NJC job evaluation scheme. This scheme covers the vast majority of posts within the council, and extends from spinal column point 1 of the new national pay spine for the lowest paid staff, to senior roles at spinal column point 46.
A small number of non-teaching posts are paid in accordance with the Joint National Council for Youth and Community Workers terms and conditions and those set by the Soulbury Committee. In addition, there are a number of teachers employed directly by the council who are paid in line with School Teachers pay and conditions. The national pay agreement for 2018 and 2019 was agreed on the 10th April 2018 by the National Joint Council for Local Government Services. This two year agreement addressed the changes required to meet the national living wage ensuring that the national pay spine met the proposed increases over the next two years. The first year (2018) of the agreement was 'bottom loaded' to close the gap with the national living wage and meant that the bottom spinal column points (SCP) saw an increase of up to 9.19% with all SCP's over point 20 receiving 2%. The second year (2019) provides for a pay award of 2% across all SCP's however in order to manage the national living wage increases there has also been a fundamental review of the national pay spine. The new national pay spine begins at point 1, introduces a number of 'new' points and the top of the spine has been set at SCP 43. The current national pay spine has 49 points with the reduction in pay points being achieved by consolidating a number of the points at the bottom of the pay spine. As well as seeking to manage the implementation of the national living wage the revised pay spine also sought to address some of the disparity between the increments and to introduce more uniform incremental progression. The aim was to ensure no more than a 2% increase between SCP's which has been achieved by the consolidation of the lower points and the introduction of some new SCP's around the middle of the pay spine.
The new national pay spine changes local pay models, which in effect is a variation to contract, and therefore the Council has reached a local collective agreement with the Trade Unions to implement the changes from 1st April 2019. The local pay model which implements the new national pay spine offers minimal disruption and maintains the integrity of the current local pay model and structure including grade boundaries and job evaluation scores and delivers on the key principles agreed with the trade unions. A full equal pay audit and impact analysis has been undertaken of the revised pay structure which demonstrates that there are no gender inequality concerns.
8.
Chief Officer Pay and Grading Arrangements
The council's Chief Officers, as defined by the Localism Act, constitutes the Senior Leadership Team which is directly responsible for the key functions of the organisation. The Hutton Report acknowledged that high quality public services require high calibre leaders to deliver them. Vital to this is to ensure that public service leaders are adequately and fairly rewarded. If senior officers are inadequately rewarded it will be more difficult to attract and retain individuals of the calibre required to lead on public service reform.
The council uses the chief officer job evaluation scheme developed by the Local Government Employers. This scheme applies to all senior posts paid on locally determined salary points from spinal column point 53 and above, incorporating all chief officer posts. This provides assurance that all pay differentials can be objectively justified through the use of job evaluation mechanisms, which directly establish the relative levels of posts and grades according to the requirements, demands and responsibilities of the role. The posts within the council falling within the definition 'chief officers' as defined within the Localism Act are those at second tier which is Assistant Director and above and constitutes the council's Senior Leadership Team. Information regarding their salaries is available on the council's website together with information on posts with a salary greater than £50,000.
In line with Accounts and Audit (England) Regulations 2015 posts where the full time equivalent salary is at least £50,000 will be referenced in the council's Annual Statement of Accounts which will include a note setting out the total amount of:
salary, fees or allowances paid to or receivable by the person in the current and
previous year;
any bonuses so paid or receivable by the person in the current and previous
year;
any sums payable by way of expenses allowance that are chargeable to UK
income tax;
any compensation for loss of employment and any other payments connected
with termination;
any benefits received that do not fall within the above.
In line with the Local Government Transparency Code 2015 the council also publishes an organisation structure chart covering staff in the top three levels, together with a list of all posts with a salary that exceeds £50,000 including details of duties and responsibilities and contact details. This information can be found on the finance pages, the FOI pages and the open data pages of the website.
As part of the wider Green Wheels Travel Plan, the City Council introduced a car club for all business travel in 2015 and all Chief Officers are covered by this scheme.
Progression through the incremental scale of the relevant grade is subject to satisfactory performance, which is assessed on an annual basis in accordance with the arrangements and factors set out within the council's agreed performance review scheme. There is no additional remuneration which is subject to performance e.g. performance related pay or bonuses of any kind. 9.
Election Fees
The council is required to provide funding to the Returning Officer to discharge statutory functions relating to the administration of local government elections. The Returning Officer sets and makes payments for the management and administration of local elections from resources made available by the council. The Returning Officer will make payments to those officers who undertake specific duties in relation to the elections (including chief officers) depending on their role. The Chief Executive does not receive any additional payment for work in relation to local elections. Any fees payable for duties in connection with Parliamentary and European elections, Police and Crime Commissioner elections and national referenda are funded by Central Government. Consequently, any such payments made to those officers who undertake specific duties in relation to these elections and referenda
(including chief officers and the Chief Executive) are not funded by the council. 10.
Pay ratios
The council does not have a target for the ratio between the pay of the highest earners and other employees. It does not propose to set one for the foreseeable future, accepting the judgement as summarised on page four of the Hutton Report, that such targets serve no useful purpose. However, it will monitor this relationship to ensure that the remuneration of the highest paid is not excessive and remains consistent with the needs of the council as expressed in this policy statement. The current salary multiple between the highest paid (Chief Executive) and both the lowest and median rates for all officers within the scope of this policy are set out below:
Highest to lowest paid (£156,584 - £16,863) 1:9.29 Highest to median pay (£156,584 - £23,111) 1:6.78
## 11. Equal Pay Audit
The City Council undertakes an annual equal pay audit comparing the pay of protected groups who are doing equal work in the authority, investigating the causes of any pay gaps by gender, ethnicity, disability, age, or working pattern and putting in place plans to close any gaps that cannot be justified on grounds other than one of those characteristics.
A full audit of the new pay model has been undertaken and based on the current analysis no statistically significant pay gaps have been identified for any of the protected groups. The council is committed to improving the levels of equalities data held, and the position in relation to equal pay will be monitored and reported on an annual basis.
12.
Gender Pay Gap The Equality Act 2010 (Specific Duties and Public Authorities) Regulations 2017 introduced specific requirements for public sector employers with more than 250 employees to publish the following information relating to their gender pay gap:
The difference in mean pay between male and female employees The difference in median pay between male and female employees The difference in mean bonus pay between male and female employees The difference in median bonus pay between male and female employees The proportions of male and female employees who were paid bonus pay; and
The proportions of male and female employees in each quartile of their pay distribution.
The mean gender pay difference for Salford City Council is 13.3 %. The median gender pay difference is 15.4%. There is no bonus gender pay gap as the City Council does not operate any bonus pay scheme.
The following graph shows the proportion of male and female employees in each quartile of their pay distribution: During the last 12 months we have seen some progress as the mean gender pay gap has reduced by 1.3% and the median pay gap has reduced by 3.9%. We have seen an increase in the percentage of females across our upper middle and upper quartiles which are our most senior roles and grades. There are also more females than ever before accessing our leadership development programme. We continue to offer flexible working arrangements at all levels across the Council to ensure a positive work/life blend for all employees irrespective of grade. Within our lower pay bands, the introduction of our new pay arrangements mean that over 400 female employees will receive more than a 7% increase in their hourly rate. Further analysis has also been undertaken to look at our proportional gender pay gap which takes account of workforce composition at each pay grade across the organisation. Further information is provided in Salford City Council's Gender Pay Gap Report. Gender pay differs to equal pay whereby men and women in the same employment performing equal work must receive equal pay. This is set out in legislation, to which Salford City Council as an employer is fully compliant. We will continue to undertake an annual pay audit and ensure there continues to be equity of pay between male and female employees.
12.
Recruitment of Chief Officers The council's procedures in relation to recruitment of chief officers is set out within the Council's Constitution and Scheme of Delegation, and is undertaken by an appointment panel in accordance with the Constitutional arrangements. Full council will be offered the opportunity to vote before a salary package exceeding £100,000 is offered in respect of a new appointment.
When recruiting to all posts the council will ensure inclusive, fair, efficient and effective recruitment practices are in place taking full and proper account of all provisions of relevant employment law whilst also developing the internal market through talent management and succession planning.
The determination of the remuneration to be offered to any newly appointed chief officer will be in accordance with the pay structure and relevant policies in place at the time of recruitment. The salary will be delegated to the appointment panel to determine in consultation with the Chief Executive. Where the council is unable to recruit chief officers, or there is a need for interim support to provide cover for a substantive chief officer post, the council will, where necessary, consider engaging individuals under a 'contract for service'. These will be sourced through a relevant procurement process ensuring the council is able to demonstrate the maximum value for money benefits from competition in securing the relevant service. In assessing such it should be noted that in respect of such engagements the council is not required to make either pension or national insurance contributions for such individuals. The council does not currently have any chief officers engaged under such arrangements.
## 13. Additions To Salary Of Chief Officers
With the exception of progression through the incremental scale of the relevant grade being subject to satisfactory performance, which is assessed on an annual basis, the level of remuneration is not variable dependent upon the achievement of defined targets.
14.
Payments on termination & re-employment / re-engagement of former employees
The councils approach to statutory and discretionary payments on termination of employment of chief officers, prior to reaching normal retirement age, is consistent with the approach for such payments made to all council employees. All payments are subject to approval in line with the Scheme of Delegation and Council Constitution. Senior officers i.e. those in the top three levels of the organisation are also required to enter in to a termination agreement once formal approval has been agreed, which amongst other things places restrictions on their immediate employment options.
The council is currently operating a voluntary scheme whereby employees may apply for voluntary severance or voluntary early retirement. Payments under the voluntary severance scheme are calculated on the basis of length of service, age and salary to a maximum of 30 weeks' pay. The voluntary aspect of the scheme currently attracts an enhancement equivalent to 12 weeks' pay. Employees aged 55 or over who are members of the Local Government Pension Scheme may apply for the early release of their existing pension benefits under the voluntary early retirement scheme.
Employees who access either voluntary severance or voluntary early retirement agree (as part of the terms of the package) not to be re-employed by the council for a period of five years (VER) or two years (VS).
In accordance with the Supplementary Statutory Guidance on openness and accountability in local pay issued in February 2013 any severance packages with a value in excess of £100,000 will be approved by council before they are agreed.
The policy applies to all severance packages whether or not made pursuant to a settlement agreement. In 2016 the Government announced the intention to cap public sector termination payments at £95,000 (inclusive of costs associated with early access of pension benefits) and that it also intends to require higher paid public sector staff (those earning £80,000 or more) to repay some or all of their severance payment if they return to the same part of the public sector within 12 months of the date of termination. The details of these changes remain unclear and an implementation date is yet to be confirmed. When the changes are implemented they will have an impact on the Council's policy in respect of termination payments and in particular on the Voluntary Early Retirement Scheme. The Council's policies in respect of pay and pensions will be amended in accordance with any changes in legislation.
## 15. Publication
Following approval by the full council, this statement will be published on the council's website.

## Annex: Statistical Notes
Testing and new cases (UK) Tests: The number of tests includes; (i) tests processed through our laboratories, and (ii) tests sent to individuals at home or to satellite testing locations. Tests processed through laboratories are counted at the time of processing in the laboratory and not when they are issued to people. Tests sent to individuals at home or to satellite testing located are counted when tests are dispatched and not at the time of processing in the laboratory. Cases: Cases are reported when lab tests are completed. This may be a few days after initial testing. Chart date corresponds to the date tests were reported as of the 24 hours before 9am that day. Only includes cases tested positive. There are more cases than confirmed here. There may be a small percentage of cases where the same person has had more than one positive test result for COVID-19. Data from hospitals Estimated daily admissions with COVID-19 (England): England data captures people admitted to hospital who already had a confirmed COVID-19 status at point of admission, and adds those who tested positive in the previous 24 hours whilst in hospital. Inpatients diagnosed with COVID-19 after admission are assumed to have been admitted on the day prior to their diagnosis. Ventilator beds with COVID-19 patients (UK): Reporting on bed capacity has shifted from critical care bed capacity to ventilator bed capacity, which is a clearer indicator of our ability to care for COVID-19 patients. Overall percentage of Mechanical Ventilation beds that are occupied by COVID patients, by nation. This measure includes both Nightingale hospitals and Dragon's Heart/Ysbyty Calon y Ddraig field hospital. The trends in this graph are impacted by both reserved and devolved policies. For Wales, mechanical ventilator beds and critical care beds are identical. For Scotland, mechanical ventilator beds and critical care beds are identical. Scottish figures include a small number of patients who are not on mechanical ventilation. For England, the denominator is the number of beds which are capable of delivering mechanical ventilation. The numerator is the number of COVID patients in beds which are capable of delivering mechanical ventilation. For Northern Ireland, the denominator is the number of beds which are capable of delivering mechanical ventilation, based on its current maximum surge capacity. The numerator is the number of COVID patients in beds which are capable of delivering mechanical ventilation. People in hospital with COVID-19 (UK) Community hospitals are included in figures for Wales from 23 April onwards. England and Scottish data includes 'confirmed' cases, Northern Ireland and Welsh data includes 'confirmed' and 'suspected' cases. Due to the way Northern Ireland report, the UK figure is calculated by taking the most recent day for Great Britain plus the previous day for Northern Ireland. National data may not be directly comparable as data about COVID-19 patients in hospitals is collected differently across nations. From 22 May, a change in reporting resulted in some patients in Wales being reclassified as COVID patients. Prior to this date, some COVID positive patients who had been in hospital for 14 days and recovered were reported as non COVID patients. Northern Ireland data were revised on 30 May to reflect a methodology change for calculating the number of COVID inpatients.
## Annex: Statistical Notes
Daily COVID-19 deaths confirmed with a positive test (UK) Figures on deaths relate to those who have tested positive for COVID-19. The 7-day rolling average (mean) of daily deaths is plotted on the last day of each seven day period. UK deaths are reported when paperwork is filed, rather than time of death. Deaths are reported in the 24 hours up to 5pm on the previous day. Figures for deaths reported on 25 May may represent a small undercount as the electronic data system used to collect NHS data was unavailable for part of Sunday 24 May. Access to the system was kept open to 7pm rather than the usual 5pm to allow late reporting, but figures may represent a small undercount. On 1 June the cumulative totals for deaths have been revised to include an additional 445 deaths in England. Please note the historical data for the daily totals before 1 June has not been updated. These additional deaths are from the period 26 April - 31 May. Figures still relate to those who have died, in any setting, having had a positive lab confirmed test. As the testing programme expands, work has been conducted to integrate individual level data on laboratory confirmed cases for Pillar 2 (commercial partner testing) into the central repository of laboratory results that PHE uses. This additional data flow has enabled PHE to incorporate the matching of additional laboratory confirmed cases, from Pillar 2, into their process, thereby increasing the number of deaths for which a positive, confirmed test exists. PHE have revised their daily series to show when these deaths were reported. For more information please see: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-information-for-the-public | en |

3696-pdf | local government delivering for people and places reputation campaign www.lga.gov.uk/reputation
## Fact: People Value Their Local Council Far Less Than The Services The Council Provides
their local communities. You may already be doing these, or some of them. But ask yourself are you doing them well enough?
Local government plays a huge role in people's lives and, according to the Treasury, is the most efficient part of the public sector making £2.6m a day in savings. So why is it that public satisfaction of council services is improving, but the public perception of councils is not?
Good communication is central to this vision. It is essential to reinvigorating local democracy through getting closer to people. So please commit your council to the 12 core actions, and sign up to the campaign if you haven't already done so. Delivering them, and delivering them well, is the first step along the road of working together to enhance the reputation of local government.
Together, we can tackle this problem by concentrating on the grassroots issues that affect all our residents: local environmental services and strong two-way communication. That's what the Reputation Campaign is all about - 12 core actions, tried and tested, proven to raise the standing of councils in Reputation underpins many of the main issues for local government today and in the future. The new Local Performance Framework proposed by the LGA, which will replace CPA, will increasingly be informed by public satisfaction, so residents' perceptions of us are ever-more important. Raising our reputation is also crucial to making our case in CSR07, and for securing the devolution of powers as the LGA has set out in *Closer to people and places*.
"Authorities can bring about a positive change in the way the public values their services." John Williams Leader, Darlington Borough Council Picture supplied by Northwest Regional Development Agency
## The Research
To start off the Reputation Campaign, in the Spring of 2005, the LGA commissioned MORI to hold a series of focus groups across England and Wales in a range of authorities including several 'excellent' performers. They showed that, despite improved council services, public perceptions of local government generally remain where they were decades ago. Most people see their council as remote, low profile, bureaucratic and inefficient. Further MORI research revealed that, at the moment...
- just one per cent of people would talk highly of their council unprompted - only five per cent know a great deal about what their council does
MORI went on to analyse hundreds of its residents surveys from across Britain. From these they identified a number of key services and issues that have the greatest impact on how local people judge their authority. With councils that excel in each of these areas, MORI then identified 12 core actions that all councils can adopt. The following pages set out these core actions.
Just one per cent of people would talk highly of their council unprompted Only five per cent claim to know a great deal about what their council does
"The Reputation Campaign is
about doing well on the
liveability agenda and linking
everything you do for residents
back to the council, rather than
hoping residents assume it was
you. None of this means
neglecting schools or big ticket
services. It does mean getting the
credit for services which the
whole population values most."
## The **Environmental** Core Actions
These are the core services that affect everyone... they will make all your residents value you more:
- adopt a highly visible, strongly branded council cleaning operation - set up one phone number for the public to report local environmental problems; - know your grot spots - and deal with them - aim to remove abandoned cars and fly-tipping within 24 hours - win a Green Flag award for at least one park - ensure no gaps or overlap in council cleaning and maintenance contracts - educate and enforce to protect the environment
MORI research up and down the country shows that these, along with the communications actions on page 8, are drivers of our reputation.
Please send us your case studies. Follow the link at **www.lga.gov.uk/reputation** or call 020 7664 3131.
"It's not a complicated project.
There are a dozen things we
need to do, simply because
residents want them to be done,
and because they work. Easy as
that. The actions make sense to
politicians of all persuasions,
they don't cost a fortune, they
are easy to implement, and all
the research shows they make
a real difference."
Simon Partridge
Leader, North Norfolk District
Council
Picture supplied by West Sussex County Council
## The **Communications** Core Actions
These are the core actions that tell people what you can do and are doing for them... they show your residents what they get for their money:
- manage the media effectively to promote and defend the council - provide an A-Z guide to council services - publish a regular council magazine or newspaper to inform residents - ensure the council brand is consistently linked to services - good internal communications - make sure staff and members are informed
MORI research up and down the country shows that these, along with the environmental actions on page 6, are drivers of our reputation.
Please send us your case studies. Follow the link at **www.lga.gov.uk/reputation** or call 020 7664 3131.
"We've been carrying out much of
this reputation work already, but
by signing up to the 12 core
actions, we are taking up the
challenge of making further
improvements and targeting the
areas where we still have a job to
do. The campaign has been a
useful prompt to complete the
tasks that weren't taking place –
and has been enthusiastically
received by members and officers
alike."
## Raising Our Reputation In The National Media
extraordinary things councils are doing for ordinary people - from building hospitals to tackling drink driving during the World Cup; from increasing voter turnout to stopping lollypop rage!
Local government has a low profile in the national media - which is strange considering the facts that councils spend £85 bn a year, employ around 2m workers and are at the cutting edge of often controversial public policy.
That's why the LGA has set up CommsNet - a service for council communications teams in England and Wales. It's about creating better links with councils around the country so that together we can generate more positive stories in the national media.
Plus, through greater co-operation, the LGA team is providing advance warnings to councils about upcoming events on the national agenda. To find out more about CommsNet, visit www.lga.gov.uk/commsnet and select your region.
The sector also gets a mostly negative press (39 per cent negative vs 10 per cent positive overall) and, whilst we will never be able to avoid negative stories, we should be working to counterbalance them with good news stories about the work we do: human interest stories; case studies about unsung heroes; residents whose lives have been changed and council staff pioneering unique approaches.
There is now a dedicated LGA media officer for each region, and they are developing links with council communications teams through regular visits and e-bulletins. Together we are identifying human interest stories for the national media, illustrating them with case studies from across the country, and getting widespread coverage about the
"Members and officers all have a stake in local government's reputation. We share a motive and a responsibility to do all we can to improve its standing and values. The task of improving local government's reputation will not be achieved overnight, but I think this approach is important. In signing up to the core actions we can make an impact fairly quickly and relatively cheaply. We all stand to gain from its success."

| Key Decision: | YES |
| Within Policy: | YES |

| Ward(s) | All |
## 1. Purpose
1.1
The purpose of the report is to present the revised submission draft of the Northampton Local Plan Part 2 for consideration and to seek approval for a second round of public consultation and the Consultation and Engagement Strategy for this consultation.
## 2. Recommendations
2.1
It is recommended that:
(i) Cabinet approves the revised Submission Draft of the Local Plan Part 2,
Policies Map and Sustainability Appraisal for publication under Regulation 19 of the Town and Country Planning (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012 as amended.
(ii) Cabinet approves the Consultation and Engagement Strategy for this
consultation
(iii) The Director of Planning and Sustainability be given delegated authority
in consultation with the Deputy Cabinet Member for Planning to make minor spelling, formatting, mapping and other amendments to the consultation documents and the Consultation and Engagement Strategy where they do not alter the intent of those documents.
## 3. Issues And Choices 3.1 Report Background
3.1.1 In May 2019, the Council consulted on the Submission Draft Northampton
Local Plan Part 2, which set out the planning framework for the borough to 2029. The plan was prepared in a manner that conformed with the policies set out in the West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy (Local Plan Part 1). Since the Joint Core Strategy is strategic in nature, it is the role of the Northampton Local Plan Part 2 to set out detailed policies and site allocations specifically for Northampton.
3.1.2 When adopted, the Local Plan Part 2 will replace all of the saved policies
contained in the Northampton Local Plan (June 1997) and replace the Central Area Action Plan (January 2013). The adopted Local Plan Part 2 will form part of the development plan for Northampton. Planning applications have to be determined in accordance with the development plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise.
3.1.3 The Northampton Local Plan Part 2 seeks to deliver the requirements of the
West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy including the delivery of 18,870 houses and a significant contribution to 28,500 new jobs.
3.1.4 Prior to submitting the Local Plan for independent examination by the Planning
Inspectorate, the Council is required to release a submission draft for
consultation. Public consultation on the Submission Draft of the Local Plan
Part 2 took place from 1st May to 14th June 2019. Representations were
sought on the grounds of legal compliance and soundness, in accordance with the requirements set out in the National Planning Policy Framework. If, as a result of responses received to that consultation, only minor modifications had been required to the Plan, the Council would have updated the Plan and submitted it to the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government.
3.1.5 Members will note from the Cabinet report in April 2019 that in addition to the
Submission Draft Consultation in May 2019, the Council has previously undertaken three other stages of consultation, namely the Issues Consultation (April 2016), Options Consultation (October 2016) and Sites Consultation (October 2017).
3.1.6 The content of the Local Plan has been informed by an extensive evidence
base which has been kept up to date and reviewed in the light of representations to previous consultations. The evidence base can be viewed at https://www.northampton.gov.uk/info/200205/planning_for_the_future/1739/ .
3.1.7 The plan must also be subject to Sustainability Appraisal. The purpose of this
is to appraise the social, economic and environmental effects of the plan and to consider choices made in comparison to reasonable alternatives. This does not mean that the most sustainable option has to be selected as long as there are valid planning reasons to select an alternative option. The Sustainability Appraisal and Habitats Regulations Assessment have both been carried out for the Council by independent consultants to ensure impartiality.
3.1.8 The Council has worked with neighbouring councils and the County Council
during the preparation of this plan in accordance with the duty to co-operate.
## 3.2 Issues
3.2.1 The Submission Draft Local Plan Part 2 published in April 2019 contained 38
policies, five of which were site specific related. The Council received consultation responses from 93 respondents to the Northampton Local Plan Part 2, generating over 900 separate comments. 55 respondents stated that the Plan was legally compliant whilst 21 said it was not. It should be noted that some respondents were supportive of the Plan, but where changes are recommended, even minor changes, they had to state that the Plan was not sound.
3.2.2 19 respondents said the Plan was sound and 63 said it was not. Comments
were received from statutory consultees including objections from Historic England on the basis that Heritage Impact Assessments needed to be undertaken for some of the site allocations prior to confirming their allocation. Natural England considered that more details were required in some of the policies to strengthen their direction and requirements. Public Health England (Northamptonshire) also wanted to see additional policies associated with health included in the Local Plan. Objections were also received from members of the public on some of the proposed allocations, particularly those with larger capacities. Developers and housebuilders had concerns about the details of the housing policies. The highest number of objections came from Great Houghton residents who opposed the allocation of a site at The Green for housing.
3.2.3 Extensive consideration was given as how to the Plan should be changed to
deal with these objections. Further work has been progressed to take on board the comments received, including the commissioning of a Heritage Impact Assessment and ongoing dialogue with key stakeholders including Historic England, Natural England and Homes England. The nature of the changes required to be made to the Northampton Local Plan Part 2 Submission Draft was such that major changes needed to be made to the Plan, necessitating a second round of consultation on the Submission Draft.
3.2.4 This revised Submission Draft now contains 44 policies, of which six are for
site specific allocations. The new and strengthened policies cover topics such as health and wellbeing, climate change and sustainable construction and hot
food takeaways. The revised submission draft is attached at Appendix A to this report.
3.2.5 Sufficient capacity has been identified to meet the WNJCS requirement for the
provision of 18,870 dwellings in Northampton from 2011 to 2029. However, it should be noted that the housing trajectory set out in the Local Plan is different
from the proposed housing delivery trajectory set out in Appendix 3 of the
WNJCS. The delivery rates envisaged in the Core Strategy for Northampton
in this period are very high - for example 1,588 dwellings in 2019/20 and
1,278 dwellings in 2022/23. In practice, housing completion rates in Northampton have been slower than the rates set out in the Core Strategy and
are predicted to continue in the same way for the first few years of the Plan
period. Completions in sustainable urban extensions, in particular, are running
at lower rates than were expected. Members will recall that the previous Submission Draft Local Plan, contained a housing delivery trajectory that
differed from the proposed housing delivery trajectory set out in the WNJCS by
setting lower figures for the first five years, with higher rates of delivery in later years of the plan period. The revised Submission Draft takes the same approach, but the annual delivery figures have been updated to take into account the most up-to-date evidence on the availability of housing sites and
the numbers of dwellings likely to be delivered.
3.2.6 A Sustainability Appraisal (attached at Appendix B) has informed the
preparation of the revised Submission Draft. Reasonable alternatives to the
policies and sites have been assessed during the preparation of the plan and
these have informed its formulation.
3.2.7 Subject to the approval of the revised Submission Draft of the Local Plan Part
2 for public consultation, it is proposed that consultation commences on 13th
July 2020 for a six week period closing on 24th August 2020.
3.2.8 The Council's Statement of Community Involvement states that there should
be a Consultation and Engagement Strategy for plan-making setting out who,
when and why we consult. A special version of the Consultation and
Engagement Strategy has been produced (attached at Appendix C) in order
that consultation can be effective without breaching guidelines relating to the Covid-19 outbreak. Government regulations require that copies of local plan
consultation documents should be made available at the local planning authority's principal office and posted online. In previous consultations, the
Council has also made paper copies of documents available at public libraries
and parish council offices. The Consultation and Engagement Strategy still allows this to happen, but only if and when Government guidelines relating to the Covid-19 outbreak allow this.
## 3.3 Choices (Options)
Option 1: agree the recommendation
3.3.1 If Cabinet approves the revised and updated Submission Draft version of the
Local Plan Part 2, Policies Map and Sustainability Appraisal for another round of consultation, and the associated Consultation and Engagement Strategy,
the Council will be able to go out to public consultation for six weeks from 13th July 2020. This should then make it possible to achieve other milestones in the preparation of the Plan with a view to adopting it by September 2021. Although by then West Northamptonshire Council will have replaced Northampton Borough Council as local planning authority, this will ensure that there is an up-to-date set of local plan policies against which to consider planning applications in Northampton and to replace the saved policies of the Northampton Local Plan from 1997 and the Central Area Action Plan, 2013. This will complement the Local Plan Part 2s that have recently been adopted by Daventry District Council and South Northamptonshire Council.
## Option 2: Do Not Agree With The Recommendation
3.3.2 Cabinet could defer or decide not to approve the revised Submission Draft of
the Local Plan Part 2, Policies Map and Sustainability Appraisal for consultation. This would mean that the Council would continue to have planning policies that are becoming increasingly outdated, making it increasingly difficult to manage development effectively.
## 4. Implications (Including Financial Implications) 4.1 Policy
4.1.1 The Local Plan Part 2 will replace the 1997 Local Plan Saved Policies and the
Central Area Action Plan. An up-to-date plan will provide greater certainty and allow policies at the local level to address local issues and be fully compliant
with up-to-date requirements and the requirements of the adopted Joint Core
Strategy. Planning applications will be determined in accordance with the
development plan, including the Local Plan Part 2, unless material considerations indicate otherwise. Policies in an emerging plan have
increasing weight the further they progress through the process.
## 4.2 Resources And Risk
4.2.1 Sufficient financial resources are available for the consultation to take place as
scheduled in the budget for 2020/21. Every effort will be made to ensure that consultation on the Local Plan Part 2 and its submission to the Secretary of State are not adversely affected by any redeployment of Planning Policy staff as a result of efforts to tackle the Covid-19 outbreak.
## 4.3 Legal
4.3.1 The Local Plan is a statutory document and has to be prepared in accordance
with the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004, as amended; the Town and Country Planning Act (Local Planning) (England) Regulations 2012, as amended, The Environmental Assessment of Plans and Programmes Regulations 2004; and the Conservation of Habitats and Species Regulations 2010.
## 4.4 Equality And Health
4.4.1 An equalities impact assessment has been carried out. None of the policies in
the document went beyond the screening stage as no unjustified negative impacts were identified.
## 4.5 Consultees (Internal And External)
4.5.1 Cabinet Advisory Group have been regularly briefed and had the opportunity
to comment throughout the plan preparation process. Feedback from members of the public, businesses, agents, developers, other local authorities and community groups during previous public consultation, and since, has been taken into account in the preparation of the revised Submission Draft Local Plan Part 2.
## 4.6 How The Proposals Deliver Priority Outcomes
4.6.1 The Local Plan Part 2 will help to guide all development across Northampton,
achieving economic, environmental and social benefits. In terms of the strategic priorities set out in the Council's Corporate Plan, the Local Plan Part 2 will help to deliver a stronger economy by having a local plan that helps Northampton grow and prosper, whilst preserving the town's heritage. It will help create resilient communities by encouraging and supporting housing delivery whilst protecting the health and wellbeing of the people of Northampton and its environment.
## 4.7 Environmental Implications (Including Climate Change Issues)
4.7.1 On 3rd June 2019, the Council declared a climate change emergency, and the
objective to make Northampton carbon neutral by 2030. The local plan
contains policies that help to address climate change and will help to improve
the sustainability of new development.
## 4.8 Other Implications
4.7.1 There are no other implications arising directly from the proposals in this
report.

## 1 Introduction
The purpose of this guidance is to:
i.
advise record repositories on the reasons why a Loan Agreement should be drawn up with
the depositor1
of privately-owned archives
ii.
provide some guidance on how to go about writing a Loan Agreement for deposited, privately-owned archives
iii.
set out the factors that need to be considered when drafting a Loan Agreement for deposited, privately-owned archives
## 2 Some Working Assumptions
Certain things must be taken as read when using this guidance:
## Acquisition
Record repositories typically acquire archives by:
(i) transfer from their parent authority (in the case of its own archives)
(ii) transfer from outside bodies and individuals (as in the case of Acceptance in Lieu allocations or in the restitution of material which had strayed from official custody). (iii) statutory deposit, in which case the archives are held according to the requirements of specific legislation (iv) loan, in which case the archives are in the custody of the repository or its parent body but remain in the ownership of an external individual or organisation (v) gift, bequest or purchase, in which case the archives usually pass outright into the ownership of the repository or the organisation of which it is a part This guidance deals only with archive collections falling within categories (i) - (iv).
The status of any archives received by the repository should be agreed at the outset.
Deposits of private archive collections should be identified clearly as a gift, purchase or bequest (usually involving a transfer of ownership) or a loan.
The term 'permanent loan' has caused many problems2. Its inclusion in previous Loan
Agreements, whether formal or informal, has led to misunderstandings between depositors and repositories, and between repositories and grant-awarding bodies, when material originally held on loan has subsequently been offered for sale. The term
'permanent loan' should be avoided in any new Loan Agreements, and should be
regarded as unsound in any existing agreements, which may therefore need to be renegotiated.
Gifts, bequests, or if necessary purchases, are preferable to loans. By this means
repositories will secure ownership of the archive collections in question, gain the freedom to manage them at their own discretion and avoid potential difficulties over the expenditure of public money, for example on the conservation of privately-owned archives collections that might subsequently be withdrawn and sold. Note, however, that certain reserved rights may apply to archives that pass into the repository's ownership. Care should be taken in particular in respect of copyright, which will not automatically pass with ownership
of the archives. It may be necessary, for example, to include in a loan agreement an indemnification from the depositor in respect of claims for breach of copyright.
## Deposited Private Archives And The Freedom Of Information Act 2000
Archive collections that pass into the ownership of a repository (or its parent body) that is
subject to the Freedom of Information Act are likely to become subject to that Act.
Collections deposited on loan may also be caught if they are deemed to be 'held by' or 'on behalf of' a body subject to that Act. The term 'held' is not defined in the FOI Act and there
is no single criterion that can be applied in determining whether information is 'held' or not. The National Archives has produced guidance on assessing whether deposited private archive collections are covered by the FOI Act which is available on our website.
Demonstrating that a private archive collection falls outside FOI will require some form of
evidence and an agreement in writing, such as a loan agreement, is the best evidence. However this may not provide sufficient evidence on its own to demonstrate that a
collection is not 'held' by a body subject to the FOI Act. Supplementary information, such
as correspondence, notes of interviews with the depositor and information recording any action that has taken place with respect to the deposited archive, should also be maintained alongside the loan agreement.
Even if a collection is deemed to fall outside the FOI Act, it is likely that copies of any of its
contents that remain with the archives service after the collection has been withdrawn will come within the provisions of that Act unless the contrary can be shown.
## Deposited Private Archives And The Environmental Information Regulations 2004
Any private archive collection that is subject to the FOI Act can be assumed to be subject
also to the Environmental Information Regulations (EIR).
In addition, even if a private archive collection is considered to fall outside the scope of the FOI Act, information in it may still be subject to the EIR. The assessment to be made here is whether the information is environmental information as defined in the EIR. If it is, it is likely to be subject to the EIR. This is because unlike the FOI Act, the EIR do not provide for exclusion of information that is held on behalf of an individual or organisation that is not subject to the EIR.
## Deposited Private Archives And The Data Protection Act 1998
Any personal information in an archive collection that is about identifiable living individuals may also be subject to the Data Protection Act 1998. This means that repositories may be required to respond to access requests from people who are the subject of the information. One of the effects of a private archive collection being subject to the FOI Act is that more personal information within it may become subject to the Data Protection Act. Guidance on the effects of this is available in the Code of Practice for Records Managers and Archivists under section 51(4) of the Data Protection Act.
## 3 Why And How To Develop A Loan Agreement
Archivists and their governing bodies who are considering accepting privately-owned
archives on loan (sometimes referred to as 'deposits') are strongly advised to enter into an
unambiguous Loan Agreement with the depositor. Many repositories already have standard forms for this purpose. They set out the intentions of both parties at the outset of
the relationship. If drawn up correctly they will also be a form of contract that may at some point be tested at law. For this reason, in order that the agreement is legally enforceable, we recommend that legal advice on the terms of loan agreements be obtained by both sides independently before they are signed.
The contents of the Agreement should be fully discussed before the loan takes place so
that any uncertainties and ambiguities can be addressed and the terms of the agreement can be fully understood, or queried, before it is signed by both parties.
The Agreement should spell out the reasonable rights and entitlements of both parties
with respect to the archives in question: for example, the decisions reserved to the depositor and those assigned to the repository, how the archives will be safeguarded; how
and under what conditions or restrictions (if any) they should be made available to the public for study or exhibition, and so on.
The Agreement should cater for future change. It should include provision for each party
to keep the other informed of any change of address or other material change in their circumstances that might affect the terms of the deposit (for example the transfer of responsibility for a repository from one parent authority to another).
Loans may be either (a) for a specified period, probably with a potential for renewal or
renegotiation thereafter, or (b) for an indefinite period, which is the more usual
arrangement. If archives are offered on 'indefinite' loan, care should be taken by the
repository to establish the depositor's precise intentions, for example whether the agreement will be subject to periodic review or whether it would be terminated in certain specified circumstances. Depositors offering archives on indefinite loan will generally not be in a position to commit their heirs and descendants to continuing the loan. It is, therefore, important that contact with the depositor is maintained so that the repository is made aware of any transfer of ownership.
## 4 Checklist Of Points For Inclusion In Loan Agreements And Example Clauses3
The following points should be considered for inclusion in any loan agreements.
## Date
Date of the agreement Date of subsequent review of the agreement
## Identity
agreement which departs from a previously agreed form of words
Identity of the depositor of the archive collection and the owner of the information within it
if different
For example: 'The depositor, Mr AN Other, acknowledges that he is the owner of the collection. Placing the archives in the custody of the archives service does not alter ownership of the collection.' (This reflects the assumption that the depositor and owner are one and the same). If the position with regard to ownership of information within the collection is complex, you could add 'This neither affects nor alters legal and intellectual ownership of the information in the collection'.
Identity of the repository and, where applicable, its parent body
For example: 'The words 'archives service' means Barsetshire Archives Service of 1 Cathedral Lane, Barchester or any successor body which shall administer the records whilst on deposit.'
## Description
Nature and extent of the material covered by the loan
## Term (Period) Of The Loan Fixed Period Or Indefinite (Subject To Certain Recall Criteria)
For example: 'The agreement shall remain in force for the loan period of x years' or 'The agreement shall remain in force unless revoked by the depositor. The depositor may revoke the agreement only under the terms of withdrawal, which are set out in paragraph x'.
o date at which the agreement will be reviewed, if applicable o arrangements for extension (if required) o arrangements for addition of archives to the initial loan (if required)
## Authorisations
Decisions delegated to the repository or reserved to the depositor. This may alternatively be set out under other specific headings and should include:
Whether the repository may identify material not wanted, either at the time of deposit or
subsequently, and is authorised to dispose of it without further reference to the depositor
For example: 'The archives service reserves the right to return to the depositor any records judged not to merit permanent preservation or, by agreement with the depositor, to destroy them'.
When a collection contains personal information about identifiable living people, whether
the depositor is retaining any Data Controller responsibilities4
For example: 'The archives service will become data controller of the records while the records are in the custody of the archives service and will be responsible for compliance with the Data Protection Act 1998'. It will be necessary to amend this clause if the depositor also has Data Controller responsibilities so as to set out the responsibilities being retained, or any special arrangements, for example, agreement to consult the depositor in specified circumstances.
Whether any other legal authorisations are required, for example for copyright purposes
## Services To The Depositor
Agreement over borrowing back by the depositor during the period of the loan
For example: 'The depositor is entitled to withdraw records temporarily for up to _______ after giving _______ notice. The depositor or his agent or representative may be required to prove entitlement to the records or show suitable authorisations before deposited records may be withdrawn. The archives service accepts no liability for loss or damage of records while they are withdrawn'.
## Storage And Maintenance (Preservation)
The standard of care that will be offered to the archive collection - for example 'The
records will be stored in the archive service's repository or one of its branches in conditions no less favourable than those considered by the archives service as acceptable for the storage of the archive service's official holdings'.
Agreement over what the repository undertakes to do by way of sorting, listing, marking
and cataloguing and at whose cost (does the deposit come with an endowment and so on).
For example: 'The records will be listed, as resources allow, by qualified archivists or people working under professional supervision. A copy of the list will be sent to the depositor free of charge. Copyright in all catalogues and finding aids will remain with the archive service.' You may also want to add 'Catalogue reference numbers may be applied in pencil to the surface of individual records for identification and security purposes'.
Whether any conservation will, may or must be undertaken as necessary, at whose cost
and with whose consent
For example: 'Appropriate conservation treatments including the physical repair of records may be carried out by qualified conservators or people working under professional supervision where and when considered necessary by the archives service'.
Whether surrogate copies may be made for security or preservation reasons (such as in
microform or digital form)
For example: 'In accordance with current copyright legislation the archive service may copy records for preservation purposes'.
Whether any insurance will be provided by the repository or whether the depositor must
arrange and pay for this if required and how frequently the archives should be revalued for insurance purposes
For example: 'Deposited private records are covered by the archive service's insurance for their physical repair or restoration after damage from whatever cause while in the archive service's custody. However, no compensation can be provided for the total loss of the records'. This will need amendment if the insurance has exclusions (for acts of war, acts of god and so on).
Arrangements over legal liability for loss or damage to the material while held by the
repository.
For example: 'The archives service will take all reasonable precautions compatible with the provision of public access to preserve the records from damage, loss or theft and additions or fraudulent amendments but shall not otherwise be liable beyond this to the depositor for any damage to or loss or theft of them during the deposit period'.
## Access And Use
Whether requests for access must be referred to the depositor or may be handled by the
repository in accordance with arrangements agreed with the depositor
For example: 'Subject to any restrictions agreed between the depositor and the archives service and to any statutory or common law provisions, the records shall be made available for public access'.
Whether any material must be withheld from the public for a specified period (on grounds
of confidentiality or liability to third parties)
For example: 'By specific agreement between the depositor and the archives service restrictions should be placed on public access to specified individual records'.
Whether access to any material should or may be withheld pending conservation
For example: 'The archives service may restrict access to records which are in need of
conservation.'
Whether the repository may charge for access to the material (if applicable)5 Whether the material may be exhibited without obtaining the depositor's permission on
each separate occasion
For example: 'Records may be exhibited by the archives service, in original, digital or copy form, without further permission from the depositor, subject to clearance of Intellectual Property Rights as necessary' - it may be necessary to amend this clause if the depositor retains authorisation. You may also wish to include, 'Requests from other institutions for the loan of records for temporary exhibitions will be referred to the depositor for approval' - it may also be necessary to amend this clause if authorisation is transferred to the archives service
Whether copies of the material may be supplied to the public without obtaining the
depositor's permission on each separate occasion
For example: 'Copies of records will be supplied (at a cost) to members of the public only in accordance with current copyright legislation'.
Whether the material, or extracts from it, may be published by the repository without
obtaining the depositor's permission on each separate occasion (will responsibility for administering copyright be withheld, shared or transferred)
For example: 'The archives service has the right to publish deposited records in whole or in part in its own publications without seeking the prior permission of the depositor but with
##
due acknowledgement to him' - it may be necessary to amend this clause if the depositor retains authorisation.
Whether the material, or extracts from it, may be published by the members of the public
without obtaining the depositor's permission on each separate occasion (will responsibility for administering copyright be withheld, shared or transferred)
For example: 'The responsibility for granting consent to members of the public to publish records from the collection will be transferred to the archives service but with due acknowledgement to the depositor' - it may be necessary to amend this clause if the depositor retains authorisation. You may also wish to add 'The archives service cannot grant consent on behalf of the copyright owner and responsibility for obtaining copyright clearance rests with the applicant'.
## Withdrawal
The arrangements to apply in the event of the permanent withdrawal of the archive collection. This includes:
Whether a fixed period of notice of withdrawal is required Whether the repository should be offered first refusal of purchase, and Whether the repository will be reimbursed for its costs in caring for the material on
the depositor's behalf if withdrawal takes place during the agreed term of the loan For example: 'In the exceptional case that the depositor decides to reclaim records before the agreement expires, x months notice must be given6. The depositor will give the archives service the option to buy the records before they are offered to
other parties. A reasonable period will be given by the depositor for appropriate funds to be raised by the archives service. The archives service has the right to claim reimbursement for the cost of cataloguing, administering and storing the records and any conservation/preservation work undertaken. The actual costs will be adjusted to reflect cost of living rises between the date the costs were incurred and the date of reimbursement'.
Arrangement for copies to be made of the deposited collection in the event of withdrawal,
or for disposal of copies already made
## Keeping Information Up To Date
Both parties to the agreement undertake to keep each other informed of change of address, or other material changes affecting the agreement
For example: 'Any change in the name or address of the depositor of the records shall be notified to the archives service. The archives service will not accept responsibility for any consequences, which may arise from the failure to notify such changes'.
## Conciliation
The National Archives is willing to be named as an independent source of conciliation advice between the parties in the event of any dispute arising over the terms of a Loan Agreement.

## Medication Risk Assessment Guidance
Purpose
This form is used to highlight the risks associated with the administration of medication and the risk reduction measures which can be put in place. It seeks to meet:
Domiciliary Care - National Minimum Care Standards 10.4 and 12 Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) National Minimum Care Standards 9 and 20 Care Homes for Older People National Minimum Care Standards 3 and
9
This guidance should be read in conjunction with the Directorate's policy for the appropriate care setting.
The Process Risk assessment is the basis of good practice in the delivery of services. The potential service user along with their carers and all involved professionals should be actively involved in the process as sound risk assessment and the reduction of such risks in a systematic way improves the safety of all involved. Consider the number of people involved in the delivery of this service e.g. domiciliary care staff, day centre staff etc as all will need to be trained and made aware of the assessment and the risk reduction measures. The completed risk assessment should be stored in the home with a copy on the service user's office file and in any other establishment they may access.
When to use the medication risk assessment.
When the outcome of an assessment of need highlights that there are medication issues, which need to be addressed for the safety and well being of the individual. When medication administration is required there are also likely to be issues for the member of staff assisting with this.
Page 1
Location is the place where the medication takes place and therefore it is possible that there could be more than location listed. The level of risk should be identified against the likelihood of an incident occurring and, should it happen, the severity of the consequences e.g. if the service user has a known history of overdoses which have required emergency medical treatment, then the risk would be high.
The initial risk should be identified and assessed and then re-assessed after appropriate control measures have been put in place. It is unrealistic to totally eliminate risk, the aim is to minimise and control it. Ordering and Collection of medication: In accordance with the Community and Adult Care Directorate's policy all alternatives should be explored before care staff assume the responsibility of ordering or collecting medication. This would include considering family, neighbours, volunteers and delivery by the pharmacy. Storage arrangements: The safe keeping of medicines should be seen as a priority both in terms of preserving the efficacy of the medication and by keeping them stored securely to prevent inappropriate use. Controlled drugs: This would only currently apply to staff in day centres and residential care units but special regulations apply to this type of medication. Details can be found in the appropriate policy but include a separate drugs register, appropriate training, storage arrangements to a specified format etc. Disposal issues: The safe disposal of medication needs to be addressed. Most pharmacists will provide a bottle for wasted doses and all pharmacists in Gloucestershire are able to dispose of any unwanted medication. Normally it would be expected that the person who collects the medication would take an active part in its disposal but if the medicines are delivered by the pharmacy, the drivers are not responsible for returning medication so an alternative must be found. N.B. Care homes with nursing care are now responsible for the disposal of their own medication. Compliance/ Capability issues: Non-compliance might occur for a variety of reasons. Some people may have memory problems whilst others find it difficult to adhere to a medication regime for physical problems.
Other: There may be other issues specific to an individual case, which require control measures to be introduced to minimise risk. | en |

## Introduction About This Book
1
This guidance provides practical advice on how to comply with the Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 (the Regulations).
## Who Should Read This Book?
2
This book is for employers and dutyholders and others who have responsibility
for the control of work sites and premises, or operating equipment requiring verbal and/or non-verbal communications. Throughout this book we have referred to the employer and others who have duties as 'you'. Where the guidance is addressed to some other dutyholder, for example a competent person, the text makes it clear who it is intended for.
## Changes In This Edition
3
The majority of changes in this edition have been to update references to
legislation and Standards enacted or updated recently, eg the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and Graphical symbols: Safety colours and safety signs. Registered safety signs - BS EN ISO 7010:12+A5:2015 (referred to as
BS EN ISO 7010 in this book). Details of relevant Standards and legislation appear
in Further reading.
4
The document has also been amended to accommodate the changes
resulting from the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Chemicals (Amendments to Secondary Legislation) Regulations 2015 (the CLP (Amendment) Regulations) relating to labelling and packaging of chemicals.
5
The signs appearing in Part 2 of this book are examples of appropriate signs.
Some examples have been included from BS EN ISO 7010 to demonstrate the types of variations permitted. There will be others available as the Regulations permit variations and additional signs as long as they retain the intrinsic features described. Please note the change in the warning signs - the deletion of the 'Harmful or irritant material' warning sign - as a result of the CLP (Amendment) Regulations.
## About The Regulations
6
The Regulations implement European Council Directive 92/58/EEC on minimum requirements for the provision of safety signs at work. They require employers to provide safety signs where other methods, properly considered, cannot deal satisfactorily with certain risks and where the use of a sign can further reduce that risk.
7
They cover traditional safety signs such as 'No entry' signs, and other means
of communicating health and safety information such as hand signals, acoustic
signals (eg warning sirens on machines) and verbal communications such as prerecorded evacuation messages.
8
The Directive standardises safety signs throughout member states of the
European Union (EU) so that wherever a particular safety sign is seen it provides the same message. The intention is that workers moving from site to site, such as service engineers, will not be faced with different signs at different workplaces.
9
The CLP (Amendment) Regulations, which came into force on 1 June 2015,
made some amendments to these Regulations. These are reflected in this guidance and the Regulations in Part 4 have been revised to show the amended version.
10
Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (the CLP Regulation) on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures, adopts the United Nations' Globally Harmonised System on the classification and labelling of chemicals (GHS) across all EU countries, including the UK. As GHS is a voluntary agreement rather than a law, it has to be adopted through a suitable national or regional legal mechanism to ensure it becomes legally binding. That is what the CLP Regulation does. As GHS was heavily influenced by the old EU system, the CLP Regulation is very similar in many ways. The duties on suppliers are broadly the same: classification, labelling and packaging.
11
The CLP Regulation replaced the previous European legislation on classification, labelling and packaging of dangerous substances and preparations. As a result, a number of European Directives were amended to reflect the change to the law. Domestic legislation then also had to be amended, to implement the changes at European level. The CLP (Amendment) Regulations made those changes to domestic legislation, including to the Regulations.

## Consulting Employees
13
If you are an employer you have a legal duty to consult with your employees on matters relating to health and safety in the workplace. For further information see *Consulting employees on health and safety: A brief guide to the law*.1
## Part 1 About The Regulations Guidance What Do The Regulations Require?
14
The Regulations require employers to ensure that safety signs are provided (or are in place) and maintained in circumstances where there is a significant risk to health and safety that has not been removed or controlled by other methods. This is only appropriate where use of a sign can further reduce the risk. The other methods may include engineering controls or safe systems of work and may be required under other relevant legislation. Safety signs are not a substitute for those other methods of control.
15
In determining when and where to use safety signs, employers must take into account the results of the risk assessment made under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (the Management Regulations).2 This assessment should identify hazards, the risks associated with those hazards, and the control measures to be taken. When those control measures have been put in place there may be a significant 'residual' risk such that employees must be warned of any further measures necessary. Safety signs should be used if they will help to further reduce this residual risk. If the risk is not significant there may be no need to provide a sign.
16
These Regulations make it clear that safety signs are not a substitute for other means of controlling risks to employees; safety signs are to warn of any remaining significant risk or to instruct employees of the measures they should take in relation to these risks. For example, in some workplaces there may be a risk of foot injury despite taking measures to control the risk and it may be appropriate to remind staff using the sign indicating that wearing foot protection is mandatory.
17
Although these Regulations do not require safety signs to be used where there is no significant risk to health and safety, certain fire safety signs may have to be displayed under separate legal provisions. If you have any doubts check this with your enforcing authority for fire safety.
## What About Information, Instruction And Training?
18
It is important that employers ensure that their employees are aware of and understand the meaning of safety signs and signals either seen or heard during their work, including providing training where necessary. Although most safety signs are self-explanatory, employees (particularly new, young or inexperienced ones) may be unfamiliar with the meaning of some of the less commonly used signs. It is therefore important that the meaning of any sign is clearly explained, and that employees are aware of the consequences of not following the warning or instruction given by the sign. Text supplementing the sign may have a useful role here.
## Guidance What Is A Safety Sign?
19
The Regulations cover a variety of methods of communicating health and safety information. The terms used in the Regulations mean the following:
(a)
safety and/or health sign - a sign providing information or instruction about
safety or health at work by means of a signboard, a colour, an illuminated sign or acoustic signal, a verbal communication or hand signal;
(b)
signboard - a sign which provides information or instructions by a
combination of shape, colour and a symbol or pictogram which is rendered visible by lighting of sufficient intensity. In practice, many signboards may be accompanied by supplementary text, eg 'Fire exit', alongside the symbol of a moving person. Signboards can be of the following types:
(i)
prohibition sign - a sign
prohibiting behaviour likely to increase or cause danger (eg 'no access for unauthorised persons');
(ii)
warning sign - a sign giving
warning of a hazard or danger (eg 'danger: electricity');
(iii)
mandatory sign - a sign
prescribing specific behaviour
(eg 'eye protection must be worn');
(iv)
emergency escape or first-aid
sign - a sign giving information on
emergency exits, first aid, or rescue facilities (eg 'emergency exit/escape route';
(c)
safety colour - a colour to which a specific meaning is assigned (eg yellow
means 'be careful' or 'take precautions');
(d)
symbol or pictogram - these appear in Schedule 1, although some
variation in detail is acceptable provided the meaning is the same (examples of variations are included in BS EN ISO 7010). They are for use on a signboard or illuminated sign (eg the trefoil ionising radiation warning sign);
(e)
illuminated sign - a sign made of transparent or translucent materials
which is illuminated from the inside or the rear to give the appearance of a luminous surface (eg emergency exit signs);
(f)
acoustic signal - a sound signal which is transmitted without the use of a
human or artificial voice (eg a fire alarm);
(g)
verbal communication - a predetermined spoken message communicated
by a human or artificial voice;
Guidance
(h)
hand signal - a movement or position of the arms or hands giving a
recognised signal and guiding people who are carrying out manoeuvres which
are a hazard or danger to people;
(i)
fire safety sign - see Part 3.
## Where And To Whom Do These Regulations Apply? Employers/Employees
20
The Regulations place duties on employers in respect of risks to their employees with the principal duty being to ensure that safety signs are in place.
21
In some industries, for example offshore, many employees are employed by contractors who are not in control of the places in which their employees work. In practice, safety signs will normally be provided by the employer or person in charge of the workplace, usually the owner or operator of the installation. The Management Regulations are relevant in these cases, particularly regulation 12. This requires the 'host' employer (or self-employed person) to give information on risks and the associated precautions arising from that employer's activities to the employer of persons at work there. In these cases, the employer or contractor will usually be able to meet their obligations by relying on the arrangements made by the host
(ie the owner or operator).
22
Contractors who are also employers will want to check that their employees are familiar with the meaning of safety signs likely to be encountered during the course of their work. They may also wish to make checks - where there is a 'host' employer - that appropriate signs are in place.
## Application Offshore
23
The Regulations apply to work activities carried out in British territorial waters and in designated areas of the UK Continental Shelf. The activities are those listed in the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 (Application outside Great Britain) Order 2013. This includes offshore installations, wells, pipeline works and activities connected with installations and wells such as construction, loading and unloading of supply vessels, and diving operations offshore. Note that for offshore installations the emergency warning arrangements, including the tones of acoustic signals and colours of illuminated signs, are covered in the Offshore Installations (Prevention of Fire and Explosion, and Emergency Response) Regulations 1995.3
## Fire Safety
24
The way these Regulations apply with respect to fire safety signs (eg fire exit signs and fire alarms) is described in Part 3. Further provisions for specific fire safety signs are required by other provisions such as Building Regulations and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
## Guidance Circumstances Where These Regulations Do Not Apply Non-Employees
25
These Regulations do not place any duty on employers to provide signs to warn other people (eg visitors, neighbours) of risks to their health and safety. They do not apply to the self-employed. However, in both these cases, employers and certain self-employed people will still have duties under section 3 of the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 (the HSW Act), and regulation 12 of the Management Regulations regarding the health and safety of non-employees, and may find the safety signs described here helpful in meeting their general duties to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health and safety of others not in their employ but who may be affected by their work activity.
## Supply Of Articles And Dangerous Substances
26
The Regulations have no requirements regarding the supply of either articles or dangerous substances.
27
Most machinery will be subject to the Supply of Machinery (Safety)
Regulations 2008 which also contain marking requirements (supporting European standards provide ways of meeting these requirements).
## Internal Works Traffic
28
The signs specified in Schedule 1 of the Regulations are not intended for use in directing traffic on public roads, waterways etc. However, the Regulations require the use of road traffic signs, as prescribed in the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984 (examples of which are shown in the Department for Transport publications Know your traffic signs4 and *Highway code*5) to regulate road traffic within workplaces where necessary.
## Application To Merchant Shipping
29
Seagoing ships are subject to separate merchant shipping legislation.
Regulation 3(1)(d) of the Regulations disapplies them from ships in respect of the normal shipboard activities of a ship's crew under the direction of the master. It does not, however, disapply them in respect of other work activities. For example, where a shore-based contractor goes on board to carry out work on the ship, that person's activities will be subject to the Regulations within territorial waters. In these cases, the contractor should make checks to ensure, for example, that appropriate signs are in place. This partial exemption applies to seagoing ships only. The Regulations apply in full to ships operating on inland waters.
## Part 2 Using Safety Signs Guidance Using Safety Signs Effectively
30
This part aims to help employers comply with their duties to select, make effective use of, and maintain safety signs. The technical requirements of the Regulations relating to the various types of safety signs are explained.
## General Rules On Use
31
The signs shown in Schedule 1 of the Regulations are to be used when it is necessary to convey the relevant message or information specified in the Regulations.
32
If the hearing or sight of any employee is impaired, for example by wearing personal protective equipment, additional measures should be taken to ensure that employees can see or hear the warning sign or signal, for example by increasing the brilliance or volume.
33
In some cases, more than one type of safety sign may be necessary, for example an illuminated warning sign indicating a specific risk combined with an acoustic alarm meaning 'general danger' to alert people, or hand signals combined with verbal instructions.
## Maintenance
34
All safety signs must be properly maintained so that they are capable of performing the function for which they are intended. This can range from the routine cleaning of signboards to regular checks of illuminated signs and testing of acoustic signals to see that they work properly.
35
All safety signs should maintain their intrinsic features under power failure -
either from emergency lighting or phosphorescent material - unless the hazard is itself eliminated by the power failure.
## Safety Colours
36
In these Regulations signs incorporating certain colours have specific meanings. Table 1 identifies the colours for safety signs generally (for fire safety signs, see Part 3).
## Guidance
| Colour | Meaning or purpose | Instruction and information |
|------------------------------|----------------------|-------------------------------|
| Red | Prohibition sign | |
| Danger alarm | | |
| Yellow Amber | Warning sign | Be careful; take precautions; |
| examine | | |
| Blue | Mandatory sign | Specific behaviour or action, |
| eg wear protective equipment | | |
| Green | Emergency escape | |
| First-aid sign | | |
| | | |
| No danger | | |
## Using Signboards
37
Where signboards are used in a workplace, ensure that they are sufficiently large and clear to be easily seen and understood. For example, when describing available equipment the safety sign should show clearly where that equipment is. All safety signs require adequate illumination and size should be appropriate for intended viewing distance; information can be found in BS 5499-4:2013 and BS 5499-10:2014. Signboards should also be durable, securely fastened and properly maintained (eg washed or resurfaced) to ensure they remain visible.
38
Permanent signboards are necessary, except in cases where the workplace or hazard is temporary. Even in these cases safety signs must still be consistent with the requirements of the Regulations. For example, use of a portable warning sign by cleaners may be necessary if a hazard such as a slippery floor exists for a short period.
39
Take care to avoid using too many signboards in close proximity.
Signboards are only effective if they can be seen and understood. If too many signs are placed together there is a danger of confusion or of important information being overlooked.
40
If circumstances change, making a particular signboard unnecessary (ie if the hazard no longer exists), it is important to ensure its removal so that misleading information is not displayed.
## Pictograms
41
Small differences from the pictograms or symbols shown in Schedule 1
of the Regulations are acceptable, providing they do not affect or confuse the message that the sign conveys and as long as the resultant sign still meets the relevant identified 'intrinsic features'. For example, the pictograms within BS EN ISO
7010 can be used to comply with the Regulations.
42
If Schedule 1 of the Regulations does not contain a suitable signboard then it is acceptable to design your own, providing it conforms to the general principles described in the Regulations. However, where the warning sign is to be used on a room storing material or containers used at work for chemical substances or mixtures (classified as hazardous according to the criteria for any physical or health hazard class) subject to the CLP Regulation, you must use one of the signs in
Dangerous behaviour; stop; shutdown; emergency cut-out devices; evacuate Doors; exits; escape routes;
equipment and facilities Return to normal
Guidance
paragraph 3.2 of Part II, Schedule 1 or, if there is no equivalent warning sign, the relevant hazard pictogram, as laid down in Annex V to the CLP Regulation, must be used. 43
If a pictogram needs to be designed it should be as simple as possible, containing only necessary detail. Guidance can be found in BS ISO 3864-1:2011 and BS ISO 3864-4:2011, where design principles that can be followed are described. The principles will ensure the pictogram is understood for the application and will meet the geometric shape and colour required by the Regulations.
44
Pictograms used in signs should be as simple as possible and contain only necessary detail. BS EN ISO 7010 contains examples of varied signs which may be useful. As an example, the following emergency escape route pictograms are from BS EN ISO 7010.
45
It may sometimes be useful to supplement a safety sign with text to aid understanding. This may be important, for example when introducing a new or unfamiliar sign, or using a general danger or warning sign. In these cases, the meaning is reinforced if the background colour of the supplementary sign is the same as the colour used on the safety sign it is supplementing.
46
Any supplementary sign or text used with a particular safety sign must be chosen to reflect the same safety sign category. So, for example, if a mandatory sign is used, ensure that accompanying text (if any) describes the mandatory nature (using the word 'must' rather than 'should' or 'may') of the action to be taken, such as 'Face protection **must** be worn'.
## Signboards Appearing In Schedule 1
47
The intrinsic features of the four types of signboards referred to in Table 1, and also fire safety signs, are described below. Examples of each type of sign are also included. You may also use variations of these signs as long as they retain the 'intrinsic features' described in each section or use the signs in BS EN ISO 7010, which has been developed and provides more variations, particularly of the fire exit/ escape signs.
## Guidance Prohibitory Signs
Intrinsic features:
(a)
round shape;
(b)
black pictogram on white background, red edging and diagonal line (the red part to take up at least 35% of the area of the sign).
## Warning Signs - General
48
The 'Harmful or irritant material' warning sign (black cross on a yellow triangle warning sign) which previously appeared in the Regulations was removed by regulation 3(4)(c) of the CLP (Amendment) Regulations. Where employers would previously have used this they should now use the most relevant warning sign from the others available. Where the warning sign does not relate to the CLP Regulation new designs of pictograms may be developed as long as they are clear and meet these intrinsic features. Intrinsic features:
(a)
triangular shape;
(b)
black pictogram on a yellow background with black edging (the yellow part to take up at least 50% of the area of the sign).
## Guidance Guidance Mandatory Signs
Intrinsic features:
(a)
round shape;
(b)
white pictogram on a blue background (the blue part to take up at least 50%
of the area of the sign).
## Guidance Emergency Escape Or First-Aid Signs
Intrinsic features:
(a)
rectangular or square shape;
(b)
white pictogram on a green background (the green part to take up at least 50% of the area of the sign).
## Emergency Exit/Escape Route Signs
Supplementary 'This way' signs for emergency exits/escape routes
49
For emergency exit signs for safe exit routes (Safety signs. Code of practice for escape route signing BS 5499-4:2013 applies) care should be taken that 'This way' arrows for emergency equipment location (red background direction arrows) are not in contradiction with escape direction.
## First-Aid Signs Guidance Firefighting Signs
Intrinsic features:
(a)
rectangular or square shape;
(b)
white pictogram on a red background (the red part to take up at least 50% of the area of the sign).
## Guidance
Supplementary 'This way' signs for firefighting equipment
50
Care should be taken that the use of arrows to indicate the direction to emergency equipment cannot be confused with direction of escape and should not be in contradiction. If there is a risk that confusion may arise which could result in those evacuating a building being misdirected, you should consider whether these signs should be used.
## Warning Signs - Chemical Labelling And Packaging
51
These labels do not appear in Schedule 1 of the Regulations but in Annex V to the CLP Regulation.
52
There are no intrinsic features laid down for the labels under the CLP
Regulation. You must use the most appropriate sign of those available and cannot create variations.
53
These labels do not form part of the Regulations but have an impact on signage used with hazardous substances and mixtures which have resulted in changes to those Regulations.
## Ghs Hazard Pictograms Guidance Using Signs On Containers And Pipes
54
Containers, tanks and vessels used in the workplace for hazardous chemical substances or mixtures, and the visible pipes in the workplace containing or transporting hazardous substances and mixtures, should generally be labelled with the relevant pictograms in accordance with the CLP Regulation.
55
There are, however, a number of exceptions:
(a)
it may not be necessary to affix signs to pipes where the pipe is short and connected to a container which is clearly signed, such as a welding set;
(b)
containers need not be labelled where the contents may change regularly (for example chemical process vessels and pipework which are not dedicated to
one substance). In these cases, employers must have other arrangements for ensuring that employees know the hazardous properties of the contents of the container; for example, employers could provide suitable process instruction sheets or training for employees.
56
The CLP (Amendment) Regulations amend the provisions relating to containers and pipes. Where these containers or pipes are not excepted and are used for, contain or are involved in the transporting of hazardous chemical substances and mixtures, they must be labelled in accordance with the CLP Regulation, using the relevant hazard pictogram from Annex V to the CLP Regulation.
57
However, the CLP (Amendment) Regulations also permit use of the hazard warning symbols specified in other systems so labels can be:
(a)
replaced by warning signs from Part II of Schedule 1 of the Regulations, provided they contain the same pictograms or symbols. If there is no equivalent in Part II, the relevant hazard pictogram from Annex V of the CLP Regulation must be used;
(b)
supplemented by additional information, eg about the risk or the hazardous chemical;
(c)
in the case of containers transported at the place of work, supplemented or
replaced by EU applicable signs.
Confusion is unlikely to arise since similar pictograms are used in the different types of signs. What may differ are the shape and the colour of the signs.
58
Where signs or labels are used they may be supplemented by additional information, such as the name of the hazardous substance or mixture and details of the hazard.
59
The signs or labels must be mounted on the sides that are visible and to be durable. Labels can be in self-adhesive or painted form.
60
When deciding where signs or labels should be placed on pipework containing hazardous substances it is important to avoid causing confusion, so do not use too many signs.
61
Signs or labels will be most useful at points where employees are likely to be exposed to the contents of the pipework, for example sampling or filling points, drain valves, and flanged joints which are likely to need periodic breaking. Where there are long pipe runs on which points of potential exposure are infrequent, labels or signs may also be displayed at intermediate points. Note that these Regulations do not cover the colour coding of pipes. However, BS 1710:2014 Specification for identification of pipelines and services may be of further interest since it provides
Guidance
guidance on the use of different colours and safety signs to identify the contents of pipework and the associated risk.
## Using Signs To Mark Areas, Rooms And Enclosures
62
It is important to mark those areas, rooms or enclosures used for the storage of significant quantities of hazardous substances or mixtures by a suitable warning sign, unless the warning labels on individual containers are clearly visible from outside or nearby. Note that marking requirements for explosives stores are dealt with in the Manufacture and Storage of Explosives Regulations 2005.6
63
Where stores are being used for hazardous chemicals or mixtures they should be indicated by the relevant warning sign taken from paragraph 3.2 of Part II of Schedule 1 of the Regulations (the yellow triangle black pictogram warning signs). If there is no equivalent warning sign in these provisions then the relevant hazard pictogram from Annex V to the CLP Regulation must be used. Stores containing a number of different substances may be indicated by the 'general danger' warning sign.
64
The signs or labels referred to above must be positioned, as appropriate, near storage areas or on doors leading into storage rooms.
## Dangerous Substances (Notification And Marking Of Sites) Regulations 1990 (The Nms Regulations)
65
The provisions in the Regulations for marking stores containing dangerous substances overlap with the requirements of the NMS Regulations. Site entrances to most stores containing 25 tonnes or more of dangerous substances must be marked under the NMS Regulations. The purpose of the marking is to provide information to the fire and emergency services attending an incident at the site. However, the primary function of the Regulations is to provide information to employees. The signs to be used under both sets of Regulations are very similar and signs complying with the NMS Regulations, on sites where they apply, will in general also satisfy the marking requirements of the Regulations. The NMS Regulations do not apply offshore.
## Using Signs To Mark Obstacles, Dangerous Locations And Traffic Routes
66
The Work at Height Regulations 2005 are concerned with preventing injuries caused by falls from heights or from being struck by falling objects. Regulation 13(5) and (6) of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 (the Workplace Regulations) includes requirements to prevent injuries caused by falling into, for example, a tank or a pit. In many cases, fall protection measures such as secure barriers are required to prevent falls. However, where the risk is low or where it is impracticable to safeguard by other means, marking the dangerous location in accordance with Part V of Schedule 1 will be necessary - for example, highlighting the edge of a raised platform or area where objects may fall using markings consisting of yellow and black (or red and white) stripes, as shown overleaf:
## Guidance
## Signs For Marking Obstacles And Dangerous Locations
67
The stripes are at an angle of 450 and more or less of equal size.
68
Regulation 17 of the Workplace Regulations includes requirements for indicating traffic routes within workplaces where necessary for reasons of health and safety. Part V of Schedule 1 of the Regulations requires the markings to take the form of continuous lines, preferably yellow or white, taking into account the colour of the ground.
69
Traffic routes in built-up areas outdoors do not have to be marked if suitable pavements or barriers are already provided.
70
The Regulations do not require outdoor traffic routes to be marked in areas that are not built-up. This is because risks to the health and safety of employees are likely to be low. However, there may be cases requiring either use of clearly defined traffic routes or safe systems of work (possibly including the use of banksmen to direct traffic) to help meet general duties under the HSW Act, eg when vehicles are operating (particularly during reversing) close to employees working on foot.
71
In some cases it may not be possible to mark traffic routes clearly by means of painted lines, for example in underground coal mines. In these cases other measures may be necessary to ensure that pedestrians are not put at risk by vehicles.
## Using Acoustic Signals And Illuminated Signs General Principles
72
Regulation 24 of the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 19987
includes requirements for work equipment to incorporate any warning or warning devices necessary for reasons of health and safety. This could include the use of acoustic signals and illuminated signs instead of conventional signboards. The signals or signs used must meet the minimum requirements described in the relevant part of Schedule 1 of these Regulations (Parts VI or VII). The signals also must be suitable for the working environment. For example, in an explosive atmosphere ensure they do not pose a risk of ignition.
73
Guidance on signals forming part of fire warning systems (eg fire alarms) is covered in Part 3.
74
When acoustic signals or illuminated signs have to be activated (either automatically or in line with other safety arrangements) it is important they remain so for as long as the danger exists or until receipt of any planned acknowledgement.
75
Acoustic signals and illuminated signs must be checked at regular intervals to ensure that they are functioning correctly. The more hostile the environment, the more frequently they should be checked.
## Guidance Illuminated Signs
76
The sign has to be bright enough to be seen, without causing glare.
77
Care should be taken to ensure that a number of illuminated signs are not used together if this could give rise to confusion. Confusion could also arise if an illuminated sign is placed close to any other similar light source.
78
The luminous area of the sign may be of a single safety colour or contain a pictogram on a specified background consistent with the requirements of Schedule 1 of the Regulations.
79
If an illuminated sign can be either 'on' continuously or operate intermittently
(ie flash on and off), use the flashing sign to indicate a higher level of danger or a more urgent need for intervention or action.
80
The duration and frequency of flashes for an intermittent illuminated sign should be such as to ensure the message is properly understood, and avoid any confusion with other illuminated signs, including continuous illuminated signs.
81
If a flashing sign is used instead of, or together with, an acoustic signal, it is important to synchronise the two. This means that the duration and frequency of flashes should be in line with both the pulse length and interval for an acoustic signal. The choice of equipment and the way it operates, of course, must take account of other risks. For example, with fast flicker rates epilepsy could be triggered in some people or, in other cases, some types of electronic pulse could be a danger in respect of stores containing certain explosives.
82
Where flashing signs are used to warn of imminent danger, it is particularly important to ensure that measures are in place to either detect failure of the sign quickly or to prevent its failure (eg by fitting duplicate bulbs etc).
## Acoustic Signals
83
So that they can be heard, acoustic signals should be set at a level which is considerably higher in terms of frequency than the ambient noise, for example
10 dB above the level of ambient noise at that frequency. However, make sure the level is neither excessive nor painful. It is also important for signals to be easily recognisable, particularly in terms of pulse length and the interval between pulses or groups of pulses.
84
Ensure that acoustic signals are not used more than one at a time.
85
If a device can emit an acoustic signal at variable frequencies (this includes an intermittent signal operating on a discrete frequency) or constant frequencies, use the variable frequency set at 10 dB above the ambient level at the appropriate frequency to indicate a higher level of danger or a more urgent need for intervention or action.
86
Acoustic signals for fire alarms are covered in Part 3.
## Guidance Using Hand Signals To Direct Hazardous Operations
87
Hand signals can be used to direct hazardous operations such as crane or vehicle manoeuvres. Ensure that the signals are precise, simple and easy to make and to understand.
88
Check also that the signaller is competent to make hand signals and is trained in their correct use.
## Specific Rules Governing Use
89
The signaller must be able to see all the manoeuvres being made by the people receiving the signals without being endangered by them.
90
During manoeuvres, make sure that the duties of the signaller are confined to directing manoeuvres and to other specific measures aimed at the safety of nearby workers (eg keeping people back a safe distance).
91
In some cases, the precautions described above may have to be supplemented, for example with further signallers to help co-ordinate the action. In such cases, make sure that the person receiving the signals takes them from one signaller only unless specific arrangements have been made.
92
When an operator is unable to continue the manoeuvre safely, the operation must be discontinued until further instructions are received from the signaller.
93
Where weather conditions may obscure viewing or result in poor light, the use of high-visibility clothing may be required to ensure the safety of the signaller under the Personal Protective Equipment at Work Regulations 1992.8 Such clothing provides an additional benefit as it may also help the operator see the signaller. The use of other items such as signalling bats and reflective arm bands may also help the operator see and understand the signals.
## Codes Of Hand Signals
94
Where hand signals are used, ensure they are consistent with the code of signals shown in Schedule 1 of the Regulations or meet either BS 6736:1986 Code of practice for hand signalling for use in agricultural operations or BS 7121-1:2006 Code of practice for safe use of cranes which are referred to in Schedule 2 of the Regulations.
95
There may be situations where these codes of hand signals are insufficient to meet communication needs. In these cases, additional signals can be used based on existing signalling practice.
96
Irrespective of the code of hand signals chosen, it is important that they are used consistently throughout a firm or workplace. If employees are unfamiliar with the code in use then appropriate training is necessary. Particular care is needed with new employees who have previously used different codes of hand signals. They may not fully understand the signals in use and may therefore require retraining.
## Guidance Using Verbal Signals To Direct Hazardous Operations
97
Verbal signals can also be used to direct hazardous operations. Such signals can be spoken messages given either by human or artificial voice, and either given directly or recorded. Spoken messages must be clear, concise and understood by the listener.
98
The verbal signals described here also represent a suitable means to help comply with relevant parts of section 2 of the HSW Act and regulations 10 and 13 of the Management Regulations (ie those parts which require employees to be provided with adequate information, instruction and training to ensure their health and safety when directing hazardous operations).
## Specific Rules Governing Use
99
The people involved should have a good knowledge of the language used so that they are able to pronounce and understand the spoken message correctly and react accordingly.
100 If verbal communication is used instead of hand signals, use the code words in Table 2 and ensure that if the two are used together they are co-ordinated.
Code word
Meaning
Start
Start an operation
Stop
Interrupt or end an operation
End
Stop an operation
Raise
Raise a load
Lower
Lower a load
Forwards
Move forwards
Backwards
Move backwards
Right
Move to signaller's right
Left
Move to signaller's left
Danger
Emergency stop
Quickly
Speed up a movement
101 Whatever system of code words is being used it is important that it can be properly understood. Where English is not the first language of most staff the codes do not necessarily have to be in English. However, there must be safeguards to ensure others affected by the operation can be easily made aware of any danger.
## Part 3 Fire Safety Signs Guidance What Is A Fire Safety Sign?
102 A fire safety sign is defined in regulation 2(1) as a sign (including an illuminated sign or an acoustic signal) which:
(a)
provides information on escape routes and emergency exits in case of fire;
(b)
provides information on the identification or location of firefighting equipment;
(c)
gives warning in case of fire.
## When Are Fire Safety Signs Required?
103 Duties on employers to provide these signs will mostly arise, for England and Wales, from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and, for Scotland, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and other fire legislation. The effect here of the Regulations will, in most cases, be to describe the types of sign you may use. Often the enforcing authority for fire safety will determine where to locate the signs. In other cases, you should provide signs depending on the outcome of your assessment of risks to health and safety. If changes to existing signs are proposed, check first with your enforcing authority.
## Safety Colours
104 Information on colours for safety signs, but for fire safety signs in particular, is given in Table 3.
| Colour | Meaning or purpose | Instruction and information |
|----------|------------------------|-------------------------------|
| Red | Firefighting equipment | Identification and location |
| Green | Emergency escape | Doors, exits, escape routes |
## What About Signs Pre-Dating These Regulations?
105 If there are fire safety signs still in use which contain symbols or pictograms which conform to the requirements of BS 5499 they will meet the requirements of these Regulations, provided they continue to fulfil their purpose effectively. However, BS EN ISO 7010 provides examples for graphical symbols and BS 5499-4:2013 and BS 5499-10:2014 give information for application, size and siting.
106 A fire safety sign which bears only text (ie typically 'Fire Exit') will not be acceptable, although text can be used in combination with pictograms, perhaps in order to comply with the requirements of a fire certificate.
## Guidance What Do The Signs Look Like?
107 The signs for emergency escape routes and firefighting equipment are contained in the Regulations in Schedule 1, Part II, paragraphs 3.4 and 3.5. As for safety signs generally, the symbols used may be slightly different from those shown provided the meaning is clear. These may be supplemented by directional arrows which are used with the pictogram to form the sign. Note, however, that a directional arrow is not acceptable on its own (refer to BS 5499-10:2014 for examples of effective practice).
## Maintenance
108 All signs should be properly maintained. It is also important that signs are fixed securely and are sufficiently large to be clearly seen.
## Using Signs In Buildings And Structures
109 People usually leave premises by the same way that they enter or by routes which are familiar to them. Alternative exits (ie all emergency exits and any exits not in normal use) should be clearly indicated so that people know there are additional ways to leave. In addition, the provision of well-signposted exits in full view will give a feeling of security in an emergency.
110 Make sure the fire exit sign is displayed immediately above the exit opening or, if this is not possible, choose a position where the sign can be clearly seen and is least likely to be obstructed or obscured by smoke.
111 Where an exit cannot be seen or where a person escaping may be in doubt about the location of an exit (eg in warehouses where goods for transit and other obstructions may prevent a clear view of the exit doors), fire exit signs, including a directional arrow, are appropriate at suitable points along the escape route.
112 In buildings with multiple occupants a common approach to the provision of fire safety signs is sensible so that people are not confused about the exit routes from the building. In such cases, it is normally the owner of the building who has responsibility for displaying signs in common areas (eg stairways) and if there is any doubt check this with your enforcing authority for fire safety. Individual occupiers are normally responsible for the signs necessary within their part of the building.
113 Your enforcing authority for fire safety may, in addition to the fire safety signs referred to in these Regulations, require provision of certain supplementary signs to aid the effective and efficient use of the escape routes provided. For instance, where there is a danger that a door which is a fire exit may become obstructed (because its importance is not appreciated) such as a final exit door opening into a car park or storage yard, or a seldom used intercommunicating or bypass door between rooms, a conspicuous 'Fire Escape - Keep Clear' sign should be shown on the appropriate faces of the door. Check with your enforcing authority if you have any doubts.
114 If the level of natural light is poor, then adequate illumination (which includes emergency lighting) will be required. Signs incorporating photoluminescent materials may also have a role in poor light conditions.
## Guidance Marking And Identifying Firefighting Equipment
115 Table 3 highlights the requirement for use of the colour red to indicate the location of firefighting equipment. The location will normally be indicated through use of a signboard, or by colouring the background behind the equipment red. Where the equipment itself is predominantly red there may be no need to colour the background red as well. The signboard must be sufficiently large to allow the location of the firefighting equipment to be easily determined. Further information on the intrinsic features of signboards and what they look like is given above. These Regulations do not cover the colour coding of equipment such as fire extinguishers, although advice on this can be found in BS 7863:2009 Recommendations for colour coding to indicate the extinguishing media contained in portable fire extinguishers.
116 If for any reason firefighting equipment is placed in a position hidden from direct view, indicate its location using appropriate directional arrows, together with the relevant firefighting equipment sign. Care should be taken to avoid confusion by ensuring these do not contradict the escape route direction.
## Enforcing Authority For Fire Safety
117 Further advice on the application of these Regulations to fire safety signs can be obtained:
(a)
from your enforcing authority for fire safety; that is, from fire officers;
(b)
from environmental health officers or building control officers of local authorities;
(c)
in cases where the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies,* from HSE inspectors.
## Fire Alarms
118 The purpose of a fire alarm is to ensure that people in the workplace are alerted to any outbreak of fire well before it becomes life-threatening. The warning system sets in motion a planned routine for evacuating the premises.
119 Fire alarms are included in the term 'acoustic signal' - 'a coded sound signal which is released and transmitted by a device designed for that purpose, without the use of a human or artificial voice'. In practice, it is important that the acoustic signal for a fire alarm:
(a)
has a sound level considerably higher than the level of ambient noise so that the warning signal can be heard throughout the workplace;
(b)
is easily recognisable and distinct from other acoustic signals and ambient noise;
(c)
is continuous for evacuation.
120 The method of giving warning of fire will vary from workplace to workplace.
However, it must be suitable for the premises. In some cases, such as small workplaces, the fire alarm may consist of manually-operated sounders (eg rotary gongs or handbells). In larger workplaces it may take the form of an electrical
## Guidance
fire-warning system (eg conforming to BS 5839-1:2013 Fire detection and fire alarm systems for buildings).
121 The Regulations permit incorporation of a public address system with the warning signal, which may also be accompanied by an illuminated sign (eg a flashing light).
122 Experience has shown that good information is a particularly effective aid to safe and speedy evacuation. Therefore, in workplaces where members of the public are present, it can be a significant help if the warning signal for evacuation is supplemented by use of the public address system to give clear and concise instructions. To be effective, messages should normally be prepared in advance and, in some cases, in appropriate languages. The fire warning system should activate this message. Ideally, this will cancel any amplified music, soundtrack or other announcements. Similarly, if a public address system is used to transmit the alarm signal, or can be incorporated with the signal, it must take priority and override other facilities of the system. Further information is given in BS 5839- 1:2013, BS 5839-8:2013 and in BS EN 60849:1998, IEC 60849:1998 Sound systems for emergency purposes.
123 Ensure that a sounder, or loudspeaker of a public address system, is not located in such a position that communication with the Fire and Rescue Service is hindered, eg too near a reception area from which the emergency call may be made.
124 Many fire warning systems are single stage, ie when the alarm sounds simultaneous evacuation takes place. However, some large workplaces may have a two-stage warning system. In these systems, a continuous evacuation signal is given in certain parts of the workplace, ie those near the origin of the fire, while an intermittent or alert signal meaning 'stand-by' is received elsewhere. These systems allow a progressive or phased evacuation of the workplace so that congestion along emergency escape routes is minimised.
125 If a staged fire warning system is being considered it is advisable to check with your enforcing authority for fire safety before installation.
126 Your enforcing authority for fire safety may specify certain maintenance
requirements for your fire warning system but, in general, all fire alarms must be regularly maintained. This is necessary to ensure they work properly and can be heard throughout the workplace. For manually-operated sounders this is a relatively simple task where the necessary general skills could well be 'in-house'. With respect to electrical fire warning systems, however, it is important that they are serviced by someone who is competent to carry out the work; that is, someone with the appropriate skills, qualifications and/or experience.
127 Your installer may be able to advise about necessary maintenance;
alternatively, contact your enforcing authority for fire safety.
## Information, Instruction And Training
128 Ensure that your employees fully understand the meaning of fire safety signs
in the workplace and how to give warning in case of fire. Supervisors, and others who have been given particular responsibility in an emergency, must be clear about the action to take if the fire alarm is sounded.

## Schedule 1 Regulations 4(4) And (5) Relate To This Schedule Schedule 1 Part I Minimum Requirements Concerning Safety Signs And Signals At Work
1 Preliminary remarks
1.1 Where safety signs are required by these Regulations, they must conform to the specific requirements in Parts II to IX of this Schedule. 1.2 This Part introduces those requirements, describes the different uses of safety signs, and gives general rules on the interchanging and combining of signs. 1.3 Safety signs must be used only to convey the message or information specified in this Schedule.
## 2 Types Of Signs 2.1 Permanent Signs
2.1.1 Permanent signboards must be used for signs relating to prohibitions, warnings and mandatory requirements and the location and identification of emergency escape routes and first-aid facilities. Signboards and/or a safety colour must be used to mark permanently the location and identification of fire-fighting equipment.
2.1.2 Signboards on containers and pipes must be placed as laid down in Part III. 2.1.3 Places where there is a risk of colliding with obstacles or of falling must be permanently marked with a safety colour and/or with signboards. 2.1.4 Traffic routes must be permanently marked with a safety colour.
## 2.2 Occasional Signs
2.2.1 Illuminated signs, acoustic signals and/or verbal communication must be used where the occasion requires, taking into account the possibilities for interchanging and combining signs set out in paragraph 3, to signal danger, to call persons to take a specific course of action and for the emergency evacuation of persons. 2.2.2 Hand signals and/or verbal communication must be used where the occasion requires, to guide persons carrying out hazardous or dangerous manoeuvres.
## Schedule 1 3 Interchanging And Combining Signs 3.1 Any One Of The Following May Be Used If Equally Effective:
–
- a safety colour or a signboard to mark places where there is an obstacle
or a drop,
–
- illuminated signs, acoustic signals or verbal communication,
–
- hand signals or verbal communication.
3.2 Some types of signs may be used together:
–
- illuminated signs and acoustic signals,
–
- illuminated signs and verbal communication,
–
- hand signals and verbal communication.
4 The instructions in the table below apply to all signs incorporating a safety colour.
| Colour | Meaning or purpose | Instructions and information |
|-----------------------------|-----------------------------|--------------------------------|
| Red | Prohibition sign | Dangerous behaviour |
| Danger alarm | | |
| Fire-fighting equipment | | |
| Stop, shutdown, emergency | | |
| cut out devices, Evacuate | | |
| | | |
| Identification and location | | |
| Yellow or Amber | Warning sign | Be careful, take precautions |
| Examine | | |
| Blue | Mandatory sign | Specific behaviour or action |
| Wear personal protective | | |
| equipment | | |
| Green | Emergency escape, first aid | |
| sign | | |
| Doors, exits routes, | | |
| equipment, facilities | | |
| No danger | Return to normal | |
5 The effectiveness of a sign must not be adversely affected by: 5.1 the presence of another emission source of the same type which interferes with visibility or audibility; therefore, in particular,
5.1.1 the placing of too many signs too close together should be avoided;
5.1.2 two illuminated signs which are likely to be confused are not to be used at the same time; 5.1.3 an illuminated sign is not to be used in the proximity of another similar illuminated source; 5.1.4 two acoustic signals are not to be used at the same time;
5.1.5 an acoustic signal is not to be used if there is too much ambient noise;
5.2 poor design, insufficient number, incorrect positioning, poor state of repair or incorrect functioning of the signs or signalling devices.
Schedule
1
6 Depending on requirements, signs and signalling devices must be cleaned, maintained, checked, repaired, and if necessary replaced on a regular basis to
ensure that they retain their intrinsic and/or functional qualities.
7 The number and positioning of signs or signalling devices to be installed will depend on the extent of the hazards or dangers or on the zone to be covered. 8 Signs requiring some form of power must be provided with a guaranteed emergency supply in the event of a power cut, unless the hazard has thereby been eliminated. 9 The triggering of an illuminated sign and/or acoustic signal indicates when the required action should start; the sign or signal must be activated for as long as the action requires. Illuminated signs and acoustic signals must be reactivated immediately after use. 10 Illuminated signs and acoustic signals must be checked to ensure that they function correctly and that they are effective before they are put into service and subsequently at sufficiently frequent intervals. 11 If the hearing or the sight of the workers concerned is impaired, including impairment by the wearing of personal protective equipment, measures must be taken to supplement or replace the signs concerned. 12 Areas, rooms or enclosures used for the storage of significant quantities of hazardous substances or mixtures must be indicated by a suitable warning sign taken from paragraph 3.2 of Part II, or marked as provided in paragraph 1 of Part III, unless the labelling of the individual packages of containers is adequate for this purpose. If there is no equivalent warning sign in paragraph 3.2 of Part II to warn about hazardous chemical substances or mixtures, the relevant hazard pictogram as laid down in Annex V to the CLP Regulation, must be used.
## Part Ii Minimum General Requirements Concerning Signboards
1 Intrinsic features
1.1 The shape and colours of signboards are set out in paragraph 3, in accordance with their specific object (signboards indicating a prohibition, a warning, a mandatory action, an escape route, an emergency or fire-fighting equipment). 1.2 Pictograms must be as simple as possible and should contain only essential details. 1.3 The pictograms used may be slightly different from or more detailed than those shown in paragraph 3, provided that they convey the same meaning and that no difference or adaptation obscures the meaning. 1.4 Signboards are to be made of shock and weather-resistant material suitable for the surrounding environment. 1.5 The dimensions and colorimetric and photometric features of signboards must be such that they can be easily seen and understood.
2 Conditions of use
2.1 Signboards are in principle to be installed at a suitable height and in a position appropriate to the line of sight, taking account of any obstacles, either at the access point to an area in the case of a general hazard, or in the immediate vicinity
Schedule
1
of a specific hazard or object and in a well-lit and easily accessible and visible location.
Without prejudice to the provisions of Directive 89/654/EEC, phosphorescent colours, reflective materials or artificial lighting should be used where the level of natural light is poor. 2.2 The signboard must be removed when the situation to which it refers ceases to exist. 2.3 The "General danger" warning sign must not be used to warn about hazardous substances or mixtures, except for cases where the warning sign is used to indicate stores of a number of hazardous substances or mixtures in accordance with paragraph 5 of Part 3 of Schedule 1 to these Regulations.
3 Signboards to be used†
3.1 Prohibitory signs 3.2 Warning signs* 3.3 Mandatory signs 3.4 Emergency escape or first-aid signs 3.5 Fire-fighting signs
## Part Iii Minimum Requirements Governing Signs On Containers And Pipes
1 Containers used at work for chemical substances or mixtures classified as hazardous according to the criteria for any physical or health hazard class in accordance with the CLP Regulation, and containers used for the storage of such hazardous substances or mixtures, together with the visible pipes containing or transporting such hazardous substances or mixtures, must be labelled with the relevant hazard pictograms in accordance with that Regulation. Paragraph 1 does not apply to containers used at work for brief periods nor to containers whose contents change frequently, provided that alternative adequate measures are taken, in particular for information and/or training, which guarantee the same level of protection. The labels referred to in paragraph 1 may be:
–
- replaced by warning signs as provided for in Part II, using the same
pictograms or symbols. If there is no equivalent warning sign in Schedule 1, Part II the relevant hazard pictogram as laid down in Annex V to the CLP Regulation must be used,
–
- supplemented by additional information, such as the name and/or formula
of the hazardous substance or mixture and details of the hazard,
–
- for the transporting of containers at the place of work, supplemented or
replaced by signs applicable throughout the Union for the transport of hazardous substances or mixtures.
2 Signs must be mounted as follows:
Schedule
1
–
- on the visible side(s),
–
- in unpliable, self-adhesive or painted form.
3 Where appropriate, the signs referred to in paragraph 1 of this Part must have the intrinsic features defined in paragraph 1.4 of Part II and must fulfil the conditions of use for signboards laid down in paragraph 2 of Part II. 4 Without prejudice to paragraphs 1, 2 and 3, the labels used on pipes must be positioned visibly in the vicinity of the most dangerous points, such as valves and joints, and at reasonable intervals.
5 Areas, rooms or enclosures used for the storage of significant quantities of hazardous substances or mixtures must be indicated by a suitable warning sign taken from paragraph 3.2 of Part II, or marked as provided in paragraph 1 of Part III, unless the labelling of the individual packages or containers is adequate for this purpose, taking into account Part II, paragraph 1.5 with regard to dimensions. Stores of a number of hazardous substances or mixtures may be indicated by the warning sign for general danger. The signs or labels referred to above must be positioned, as appropriate, near the storage area or on the door leading into the storage room.
## Part Iv Minimum Requirements For The Identification And Location Of Fire-Fighting Equipment 1 Preliminary Remark This Part Applies To Equipment Used Exclusively For Fire-Fighting Purposes.
2 Fire-fighting equipment must be identified by using a specific colour for the equipment and placing a location signboard, and/or by using a specific colour for the places where such equipment is kept, or their access points. 3 The colour for identifying this equipment is red. The red area must be sufficiently large to allow the equipment to be identified easily. 4 The signboards provided for in paragraph 3.5 of Part II must be used to mark the locations of this equipment.
## Part V Minimum Requirements Governing Signs Used For Obstacles And Dangerous Locations, And For Marking Traffic Routes
1 Signs for obstacles and dangerous locations
1.1 Places where there is a risk of colliding with obstacles, of falling or of objects falling should be marked with alternating yellow and black, or red and white stripes in built-up zones in the undertaking to which workers have access during their work.
Schedule
1
1.2 The dimensions of the markings must be commensurate with the scale of the obstacle or dangerous location in question.
1.3 The yellow and black or red and white stripes must be at an angle of approximately 45º and of more or less equal size.*
2 Marking of traffic routes
2.1 Where the use and equipment of rooms so requires for the protection of
workers, traffic routes for vehicles must be clearly identified by continuous stripes in
a clearly visible colour, preferably white or yellow, taking into account the colour of
the ground.
2.2 The stripes must be located so as to indicate the necessary safe distance
between the vehicles and any object which may be near by, and between pedestrians and vehicles.
2.3 Permanent traffic routes in built-up areas outdoors should, as far as is practicable, be similarly marked, unless they are provided with suitable barriers or pavements.
## Part Vi Minimum Requirements For Illuminated Signs
1 Intrinsic features
1.1 The light emitted by a sign must produce a luminous contrast which is appropriate to its environment, in accordance with the intended conditions of use of the sign, but without producing glare for an excessive amount of light or poor visibility as a result of insufficient light. 1.2 The luminous area emitting a sign may be of a single colour or contain a pictogram on a specified background. 1.3 The single colour must correspond to the table of colours and their meanings set out in paragraph 4 of Part I.
1.4 Likewise, when the sign contains a pictogram, the latter must comply with all the relevant rules set out in Part II.
2 Specific rules governing use
2.1 If a device can emit both continuous and intermittent signs, the intermittent sign should be used to indicate a higher level of danger or a more urgent need for the requested/imposed intervention or action than is indicated by the continuous sign. The duration of each flash and the frequency of the flashes of an intermittent illuminated sign must be such as to:
–
- ensure the proper perception of the message, and
–
- avoid any confusion either between different illuminated signs or with a
continuous illuminated sign.
2.2 If a flashing sign is used instead of, or together with, an acoustic signal, identical codes must be used.
Schedule
1
2.3 Devices for emitting flashing signs in the event of grave danger must be under special surveillance or be fitted with an auxiliary lamp.
## Part Vii Minimum Requirements For Acoustic Signals 1 Intrinsic Features 1.1 Acoustic Signals Must:
(a) have a sound level which is considerably higher than the level of ambient noise, so that it is audible without being excessive or painful; (b) be easily recognizable, particularly in terms of pulse length and the interval between pulses or groups of pulses, and be clearly distinct from any other acoustic signal and ambient noises. 1.2 If a device can emit an acoustic signal at variable and constant frequencies, the variable frequency should be used to indicate a higher level of danger or a more urgent need for the requested/imposed intervention or action in relation to the stable frequency.
## 2 Code The Signal For Evacuation Must Be Continuous. Part Viii Minimum Requirements For Verbal Communication
1 Intrinsic features
1.1 Verbal communication between a speaker or emitter and one or more hearers is to take the form of (sometimes coded) short texts, phrases, groups of words and/or individual words. 1.2 Spoken messages are to be as short, simple and clear as possible; the verbal skills of the speaker and the hearing abilities of the hearer(s) must be such as to ensure reliable verbal communication. 1.3 Verbal communication is direct (by means of the human voice) or indirect (by means of a human or artificial voice which is broadcast by whatever means is appropriate).
2 Specific rules governing use
2.1 The persons involved must have a good knowledge of the language used so that they are able to pronounce and understand the spoken message correctly and consequently behave in a way which is appropriate to health and/or safety. 2.2 If verbal communication is used instead of, or together with, gestures, code words should be used such as:
–
- start
to indicate the start of a command.
–
- stop
to interrupt or end a movement.
–
- end
to stop the operation.
–
- raise
to have a load raised.
–
- lower
to have a load lowered.
–
- forwards
to be co-ordinated with the corresponding hand signals.
–
- backwards
to be co-ordinated with the corresponding hand signals.
–
- right
to be co-ordinated with the corresponding hand signals.

## Part Ix Minimum Requirements For Hand Signals
1 Features Hand signals must be precise, simple, expansive, easy to make and to understand, and clearly distinct from other such signals. Where both arms are used at the same time, they must be moved symmetrically and used for giving one sign only.
Provided that they fulfil the conditions given above, the signals used may vary slightly from or be more detailed than those shown in paragraph 3; they must, however, be equally meaningful and comprehensible.
2 Specific rules governing use
2.1 The person giving the signs, hereinafter referred to as the 'signalman', will use arm/hand movements to give manoeuvring instructions to the person receiving the signs, hereinafter referred to as the operator. 2.2 The signalman must be able to monitor all manoeuvres visually without being endangered thereby. 2.3 The signalman's duties must consist exclusively of directing manoeuvres and ensuring the safety of workers in the vicinity. 2.4 If the conditions described in paragraph 2.2. are not fulfilled, one or more extra signalmen should be deployed. 2.5 The operator must interrupt the ongoing manoeuvre in order to request new instructions when he is unable to carry out the orders he has received with the necessary safety guarantees.
## 2.6 Accessories
The operator must be able to recognize the signalman without difficulty. The signalman is to wear one or more appropriate distinctive items, e.g. a jacket, helmet, sleeves or armbands, or carry bats. The distinctive items are to be brightly coloured, preferably all of the same colour and for the exclusive use of signalmen.
