Graham Evans – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Graham Evans on 2014-04-09.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 7 April 2014, Official Report, column 114W, on human trafficking: victim support schemes, how many of those referred were (a) men and (b) women, by country; what steps are taken to ensure after the victim exits the shelter into which they have been placed by the Salvation Army they are not re-trafficked or contact their former traffickers; and if she will make a statement.

Karen Bradley

The requested information on the gender of potential victims and the regions in
which they were found in January 2014 was provided in the Answer of 7 April
2014, Official Report, columns 114-5W, on human trafficking: victim support
schemes. However, this data was provided in a number of separate tables. The
information was not withheld and is provided below in an alternative format,
giving the same data broken down by individual case, in one table.

The victim care contract does not require support providers to maintain any
form of formal contact after the recovery and reflection period. However, some
survivors do maintain informal contact with their support provider. All support
providers will work with victims throughout their support period to help them
move on from the service. We are looking at what more we can do to help victims
reintegrate effectively.

Graham Evans – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Graham Evans on 2014-05-07.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many officials are employed in her Department’s Human Trafficking Unit; what the purpose of the unit is; and what the role is of each such official.

Karen Bradley

A dedicated Modern Slavery Unit has been set up in the Home Office to lead and
coordinate cross-Government activity to stamp out this terrible crime. The
Modern Slavery Unit currently comprises 13 members of staff and is responsible
for a comprehensive programme of activity, which includes development of the
Modern Slavery Bill, and management of the adult victim care contract. In
addition, one member of staff has been seconded from the Foreign and
Commonwealth Office to lead on international issues. There are also six members
of staff working on the review of the National Referral Mechanism. This team is
independent of the Modern Slavery Unit.

The Modern Slavery Unit is further supported by a number of staff across the
Home Office who work on related modern slavery issues including child
trafficking and the Gangmasters Licensing Authority. This is in addition to
the operational caseworkers in UK Visas and Immigration, who are involved in
decision making on individual cases.

Graham Evans – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the HM Treasury

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Graham Evans on 2014-06-04.

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what steps he is taking to encourage young savers.

Mr David Gauke

At the Budget it was announced that, from 1 July 2014, the limits for Junior ISAs and Child Trust Funds (CTFs) will rise from £3,720 to £4,000.

Following a public consultation, the Government has decided to allow the transfer of savings from CTFs to Junior ISAs. We are committed to ensuring that there is a clear and simple way to save for all children and believe that parents should be allowed the opportunity to transfer from a CTF to a Junior ISA if they consider this to be the most appropriate account for their child.

The Government has clauses in the Deregulation Bill, currently making its way through Parliament, which will enable the transfers. We hope this option to transfer will be available by April 2015.
