answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/10/2018 answer text <p>The Government recognises the importance to communities of design quality in the built environment for new development. A design team and an architectural adviser to Government have been established, in order to promote design quality and beauty across policy and programmes.</p><p>Design quality is an integral part of the recently revised National Planning Policy Framework, which states that development should be “visually attractive as a result of good architecture, layout and appropriate and effective landscaping”. The importance of beauty is also highlighted in Government programmes, including the Garden Cities, Towns and Villages programme.</p><p>The Government is taking a proactive approach to sharing evidence of beauty in the built environment, and my department hosted the Government’s first design quality conference in April this year. New planning guidance will emphasise the importance of community engagement in plan making and design of projects, and the need to focus on qualities such as the appearance of new development, that appeal to residents and neighbours.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 19/10/2018 12:25:56 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

tabling member constituency	South Holland and The Deepings
tabling member printed	Mr John Hayes
uin	178234
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/10/2018 answer text <p>The Government are aware of the role that the Built Environment has to play in the prevention of antisocial behaviour and crime. Within the revised National Planning Policy Framework it states that development should seek to provide environments that are “safe and accessible, so that crime and disorder, and the fear of crime, do not undermine the quality of life or community cohesion.” Planning practice guidance will provide further advice in relation to crime prevention.</p><p><br>Existing planning guidance refers to Secure by Design, a standard for security in the design of places and spaces between buildings. The standard makes recommendations for parts of development that might at risk of crime and provides an advisory service to help design out crime. The requirements in Secure by Design that relate to security of the home are a requirement under Part P of the Building Regulations. The revised planning guidance will continue to reference Secure by Design standards.</p><p>With regards to assessing the relationship between the Built Environment and crime, no evidence has yet been gathered. However, social value, which includes the creation of safe places for people to live and work, is something that we are in the process of addressing.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 18/10/2018 13:00:33 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/10/2018 answer text <p>The government opposes the use of the death penalty in all circumstances and has no plans to reintroduce it. We are also actively advocating for the global abolition of the death penalty. This includes meeting with foreign delegations, who have the death penalty, to set out our alternative sentencing framework. There is no evidence that capital punishment acts as a deterrent to violent crime. Furthermore, the reintroduction of the death penalty would bring with it the very real risk that some innocent people would die.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 19/10/2018 13:33:41 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar
