What progress has been made on the manifesto commitment to restore confidence in Government and ensure ministers are held to the highest standards.
The Prime Minister has made clear public service is a privilege and is committed to restoring trust in government by ensuring ministers are held to the highest standards. On taking office, the Prime Minister published a new, strengthened, Ministerial Code which sets out the standards expected of all government ministers. It includes a full articulation of the Seven Principles of Public Life, bringing the importance of public service to the front and fore of the Code. This commitment was further demonstrated in October last year when the Prime Minister updated the Ministerial Code. This update implemented reforms in relation to ministerial severance payments and changes to the operation of the Business Appointment Rules. Last October the Government also established the Ethics and Integrity Commission. This authoritative body and its new mandate will drive up ethical standards across the public sector and take a leading role in helping put ethics and integrity at the heart of every public sector organisation.

What guidance she is offering passengers whose flights are impacted by jet fuel shortages.
UK airlines are clear that they are not currently seeing a shortage of jet fuel, and there is no need for passengers to change upcoming travel plans. It is important however that passengers are aware of their rights during any disruption and that is why the Government provides guidance through its Air Passenger Travel Guide advice page. In addition to this general guidance the Government and the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) have also published specific information such as the Jet fuel and travel plans: what you need to know advice page and CAA summer travel advice page.

What steps her Department is taking to protect St Annes' Synagogue in St Annes on Sea and the Jewish community in Fylde constituency.
The Government is committed to the safety and security of Jewish communities across the UK, including Fylde, and to tackling antisemitism wherever it occurs. Everyone should feel safe to practise their faith and participate in public life free from intimidation or fear.On 30 April, the Government announced £25 million of immediate funding for 2026/27 to strengthen policing, protect Jewish communities, and provide reassurance following the terrorist attack in Golders Green and the recent increase in antisemitic incidents. Of this, £4 million was allocated to the Jewish Community Protective Security (JCPS) Grant, bringing the total funding for the Grant to £32.4 million. This represents a record level of investment in 2026/27 to support the protection of Jewish communities. The JCPS Grant funds protective security measures at synagogues, Jewish educational institutions, and other community sites. It is administered by the Community Security Trust (CST) on behalf of the Home Office.Whilst it would not be appropriate to comment on the arrangements for specific locations, we continue to work closely with the police, CST and other partners to monitor threats and ensure that appropriate and proportionate protective measures are in place where they are needed.Alongside this, the Government is taking a broad, cross-government approach to tackling antisemitism in all its forms. This includes action to address online hate through the Online Safety Act, under which platforms must take steps against illegal content, as well as wider work to support communities and strengthen resilience, including through programmes such as the Common Ground, which has received a £1 million expansion to support communities and places facing the greatest risk of antisemitism.
