To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what modelling she has conducted to assess the likelihood of the emergency brake mechanism to control immigration from the rest of the EU into the UK being utilised in the next five years.

James Brokenshire

The European Commission has clearly said that the UK already meets the criteria for the implementation of the ‘emergency brake’ and the text of the agreement makes clear that, once the necessary legislation is in place, EU workers newly arriving in the UK will not have full access to our in-work benefits for up to four years.

The Home Office accepted the view of the independent Migration Advisory Committee that to produce such estimates "would not be sensible, or helpful to policymakers" and did not prepare specific forecasts of likely inflows from Romania and Bulgaria once restrictions expired on 1 January 2014. There are no plans to undertake a review of this decision.

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what plans his Department has to publish (a) CarillionAmey’s key performance indicators (KPIs) and (b) his Department’s assessment of the extent to which those KPIs have been met in each year of the present contract.

Mark Lancaster

The Ministry of Defence has no plans to publish CarillionAmey’s (CA) Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) externally.

However letters are sent out each month as part of a wider Accommodation performance update to key stakeholders, including the Families Federations. These letters report on the following national housing prime contract KPIs.

Service Family Accommodation (SFA) allocations;

Void property preparation;

Move-in;

Helpdesk telephone response;

Reactive maintenance;

Statutory and Mandatory checks; and

Stage 1 complaints.

CA have not met all their KPIs since contract award, however the Department has now installed a comprehensive plan in this and other contracts which CA are responsible for which has meant that as of March the vast majority of national housing prime contract KPIs are now being met or exceeded.
