A permit will only be issued if no detrimental impact on the sustainability of endangered species is demonstrated and the trophy has been obtained from a legal and sustainable hunting operation. We will always do whatever we can to protect the world’s most iconic species.</p><p> </p><p>Some conservation non-governmental organisations have set out how in certain limited and rigorously controlled cases, scientific evidence shows that trophy hunting can be an effective conservation tool.</p> more like this

In light of that advice, the Home Secretary has decided that further detailed consideration is required on how best to tighten controls on high energy rifles. We have therefore tabled an amendment to remove the proposed prohibition from the Bill and will undertake a full public consultation to seek as wide a range of views as possible on this important issue.</p> more like this

unstar this property answer text <p>We collect data on the pre-imprisonment status employment status of individuals within 72 hours of them entering custody using the Basic Custody Screening Tool (BCS). For the period 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018, these figures are set out in the table below:</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>BCS Q B4.12: Were you working before you came to custody?</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Count of Assessments</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Percentage</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Employed</p></td><td><p>22177</p></td><td><p>21.77%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Unemployed</p></td><td><p>61586</p></td><td><p>60.44%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Unavailable for work</p></td><td><p>10797</p></td><td><p>10.60%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Retired</p></td><td><p>1168</p></td><td><p>1.15%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Self-employed</p></td><td><p>6161</p></td><td><p>6.05%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Count:</p></td><td><p>101889</p></td><td><p>100.00%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>It should be noted that these figures are compiled from information the prisoners have provided the assessor to enter into the BCS, and include not only prisoners sentenced in respect of a criminal offence, but also those received into custody on remand. Given the information is provided by the prisoners themselves and is not assessed, there will always be a margin of error in the figures. A proportion of prisoners will enter custody multiple times each year and may provide different answers to these questions over time.</p><p> </p><p>Reoffending is costing society approximately £15 billion a year. Effective rehabilitation needs prisoners to be willing to commit to change, take advice, learn new skills and take opportunities to work. For those individuals willing to engage, the prison system must deliver. That is why we launched the Education and Employment strategy to create a system where each prisoner is set on a path to employment from the outset. We are empowering governors to commission education provision that leads to work, we are engaging with employers to take on ex-prisoners via the New Futures Network (NFN) and have consulted on proposals to increase the opportunities available to prisoners to gain experience in real workplaces through ROTL.</p>

unstar this property answer text <p>Public Health England (PHE) has not made an assessment of the economic effect on the United Kingdom food industry of proposed measures to reduce the calorie content of food products by 20%.</p><p> </p><p>An assessment was, however, made through modelling to estimate the potential health economic benefits of a calorie reduction programme at a population level. A 20% reduction in calories from everyday foods that contribute to population intake, if achieved over five years, would prevent 35,370 premature deaths, save the National Health Service £4.5 billion in healthcare costs and save social care costs of around £4.48 billion, over a 25 year period.
