star this property answer text <p>On 30 April the House agreed to changes to the Code of Conduct for Members of the House of Lords that incorporated the Parliamentary Behaviour Code, which sets out the standards of behaviour expected of everyone who works within the Parliamentary Estate, and introduced provisions to deal explicitly with behaviour that constitutes bullying, harassment or sexual misconduct. Since then, there have been fewer than ten complaints of bullying, harassment or sexual misconduct made against members of the House of Lords under the Code. To protect the confidentiality of those reporting complaints, and in line with Parliament’s publication policy for statistics under the Independent Complaints and Grievance Scheme, the exact numbers are only provided where they are ten or more.</p> more like this

star this property answer text <p>The Government recognises that the internet is increasingly a greater aspect of citizens' daily lives, such as through the growing prevalence of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. We recognise that compromised internet-connected devices can result in many forms of harm to the individual and the wider economy, and as such, we take the security of these devices very seriously. In recent months we have been focusing attention on securing connected ‘smart’ devices for use in the home.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>In May 2019, the Government launched a consultation on proposed regulation for consumer internet-connected devices. This advocated for a minimum security baseline centred around mandating the top three guidelines of the Code of Practice for Consumer IoT Security, published by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport in October 2018.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>We are now working through the wide array of responses to the consultation to further refine our policy proposals and will publish a formal consultation response and final regulatory proposal later this year.</p><p> </p>

star this property answer text <p>The joint DCMS-Home Office Online Harms White Paper, published on 8 April, sets out the government's plans for world leading legislation to make the UK the safest place in the world to be online. This includes establishing a new statutory duty of care to make companies take more responsibility for the safety of their users. Compliance with this duty of care will be overseen and enforced by an independent regulator. Companies will be held to account for tackling a comprehensive set of online harms, including cyberbullying. Alongside the White Paper, the government also published the Social Media Code of Practice, which sets out actions that the Government believes social media platforms should take to prevent bullying, insulting, intimidating and humiliating behaviours on their sites.</p> more like this

Subsequently, in December 2018, the UK hosted the first ever high-level meeting of the International Partnership Against Corruption in Sport (IPACS) in London.</p><p> </p><p>The IPACS partnership’s mission is to bring international sports organisations, governments and inter-governmental organisations together “to strengthen and support efforts to eliminate corruption and promote a culture of good governance in and around sport.” December’s meeting saw over 100 representatives from these stakeholder groups to discuss corruption risks around procurement linked to major sporting events; conflicts of interest in major events bidding and hosting; and international sports governance.</p><p> </p><p>The Government also signed the Council of Europe Convention on the Manipulation of Sports Competitions (Macolin Convention) in December 2018. The Macolin Convention is a multilateral treaty that aims to prevent, detect, and punish match fixing in sport.</p>
