answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/10/2020 answer text <p>I accepted the Windrush Lessons Learned review’s important findings in July and on 30 September I published the Comprehensive Improvement plan in response to the review. This includes our response to recommendation 7.</p><p>I am clear that the public expects us to enforce immigration laws approved by Parliament as a matter of fairness to those who abide by the rules and to protect tax-payer funded services, by ensuring that only those who are entitled to use publicly funded services can access them and that those who are here legitimately do not suffer negative consequences.</p><p>We do not intend to deviate from these key principles, but I have tasked my officials to undertake a full evaluation of the compliant environment policy and measures, individually and cumulatively, to make sure that the crucial balance is right. If we find evidence, they are not achieving our objectives, we will review and adapt our policies.</p> answering member constituency Witham answering member printed Priti Patel question first answered 05/10/2020 10:44:20 answering member 4066 label Biography information for Priti Patel

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/09/2020 answer text <p>The Windrush Compensation Scheme and application process was designed, with the independent oversight of Martin Forde QC, to be as clear and simple as possible. Claim forms for the scheme were tested with users to ensure they are easy to understand and complete. While the forms may appear long, people only need to complete the sections of the form that relate to their individual claims.</p><p>Guidance on how to complete a claim for compensation can be found on gov.uk at: <a href="http://www.gov.uk/government/publications/windrush-compensation-scheme-claim-forms-and-guidance" target="_blank">www.gov.uk/government/publications/windrush-compensation-scheme-claim-forms-and-guidance</a>. For those who want or need support to make a claim, the Home Office has funded Citizens Advice to provide free independent advice and support. A referral to Citizens Advice can be made via the Windrush Help Team. The team can also assist individuals should they have questions about the claim form or process.</p> answering member constituency Witham answering member printed Priti Patel question first answered 28/09/2020 12:26:14 answering member 4066 label Biography information for Priti Patel
