answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/05/2019 answer text <p>Income from the Victim Surcharge contributes to the Ministry of Justices’ Victim and Witness Budget (“the Budget”). This budget is used to fund Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) who commission local support services for victims, and nationally commissioned support services including the National Homicide Service, Rape Support Centres, and the Court Based Witness Service. Income from the Victim Surcharge is forecast into the Budget at the beginning of each financial year. However, actual income raised from the Surcharge will fluctuate each year (depending on the amount imposed and collection rates). Should revenue raised from the Surcharge go above the forecast amount, the excess is put towards compensating victims through the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme.</p><p> </p><p>Overall amounts are set out in the table below:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Financial Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong> Victim Surcharge (VS) Collected *</strong><strong><strong>[1]</strong></strong></p></td><td><p><strong>VS contribution to the Victim and Witness Budget*</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Overall Victim and Witness Budget*</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010/11</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£48m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011/12</p></td><td><p>£10m</p></td><td><p>£10m</p></td><td><p>£48m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012/13</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£1<ins class="ministerial">1</ins><del class="ministerial">0</del>m</p></td><td><p>£50m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013/14</p></td><td><p>£<ins class="ministerial">20</ins><del class="ministerial">19</del>m</p></td><td><p>£<ins class="ministerial">20</ins><del class="ministerial">19</del>m</p></td><td><p>£57m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014/15</p></td><td><p>£2<ins class="ministerial">5</ins><del class="ministerial">4</del>m</p></td><td><p>£2<ins class="ministerial">5</ins><del class="ministerial">4</del>m</p></td><td><p>£86m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015/16</p></td><td><p>£28m</p></td><td><p>£18m</p></td><td><p>£92m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016/17</p></td><td><p>£31m</p></td><td><p>£2<ins class="ministerial">7</ins><del class="ministerial">6</del>m</p></td><td><p>£96m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017/18</p></td><td><p>£35m</p></td><td><p>£31m</p></td><td><p>£97m</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>*The amounts listed in the table have been rounded to the nearest £1<del class="ministerial">0</del>m.</p> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 17/05/2019 12:31:20 question first ministerially corrected 08/10/2019 15:14:33 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer previous answer version 118662 answering member constituency South Swindon answering member printed Robert Buckland answering member 4106

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/03/2019 answer text <p>​There are no Foreign and Commonwealth Office staff that are at risk of redundancy under the current facilities management contract.</p><p>The changes to the Interserve staffing on this contract are as a result of a change to the delivery model for the contract, not as a result of the company's financial situation. Negotiations are ongoing and we believe there are 9 roles in the current structure which do not fit within the new model.</p><p>For any changes (including redundancies) Interserve will follow the appropriate procedures, including consultation with individuals and their representatives, to meet their duty to mitigate the risk of redundancy, including through exploring opportunities for redeployment.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 04/03/2019 16:08:05 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/03/2019 answer text <p>​No. The contract was awarded after Interserve had secured refinancing in April 2018, which had increased their financial stability and with the full agreement of Cabinet Office and HM Treasury. Any changes to staffing on the contract delivered to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office are a result of the change to the proposed service delivery model and are not a result of Interserve's financial position.</p><p>Interserve announced on 27 February that its lenders, bonding providers and Pension Trusteee have agreed to its proposed deleveraging plan, a significant milestone in the delivery of their refinancing.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 04/03/2019 16:09:18 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/01/2019 answer text <p>National street counts and intelligence driven estimates of people sleeping rough are conducted every year in autumn. The most recent data from the autumn 2017 annual street count and estimate returned a total figure of 4,751 rough sleepers in England.</p><p>Rough sleepers are defined as people sleeping, about to bed down, or actually bedded down in the open air (such as on the streets, in tents or in bus shelters) - as well as people in buildings or other places not designed for habitation. As such, homeless people sleeping in tents or cars are captured in the total. However, whilst they are incorporated in our data, there is not a separate breakdown for these demographics.</p><p>The official street count and estimate of the number of people sleeping rough on a single night in England, between 1 October 2018 and 30 November 2018, will be published on Thursday 31 January 2019.</p><p>This Government is committed to reducing homelessness and rough sleeping. No one should ever have to sleep rough. That is why last summer we published the cross-government Rough Sleeping Strategy which sets out an ambitious £100 million package to help people who sleep rough now, but also puts in place the structures that will end rough sleeping once and for all. The Government has now committed over £1.2 billion to tackle homelessness and rough sleeping over the spending review period.</p> answering member constituency South Derbyshire answering member printed Mrs Heather Wheeler question first answered 10/01/2019 15:02:25 answering member 4053 label Biography information for Mrs Heather Wheeler
