5 Dec 2001 : Column: 402W
(d) York, (e) Hertfordshire, (f) Stratford upon Avon, (g) Leamington Spa, (h) Yalding, (i) Uckfield, (j) Lewes, (k) Malton, Yorkshire and (l) Norton, Yorkshire. [19533]
Mr. Morley:
Such information is not available though the Environment Agency has commissioned research into the costs of flooding in areas affected by the late 2000 floods.
Home Energy Efficiency Scheme
Mr. Gerrard:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what are the objectives of the Home Energy Efficiency Scheme. [19629]
Mr. Meacher:
The objective of the Home Energy Efficiency Scheme is to improve the energy efficiency of private sector homes occupied by those householders most vulnerable to cold-related ill-health who are either in, or at risk from, fuel poverty.
Older householders, families with young children, the disabled and long-term ill are all regarded as being vulnerable to cold-related ill-health.
Tuberculosis
Mr. Clifton-Brown:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs how many (a) full-time and (b) part-time staff from her Department have been assigned to deal with tuberculosis in cattle in each of the last 12 months. [19800]
Mr. Morley:
Figures are not available in the format requested. However, various figures are available which show the staff input into the TB programme. These are shown in the tables.
In order to make a reasonable comparison, the figures have been recalculated as number of staff days worked on TB each month.
