	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2019 answer text <p>The UK allocation from the Fund for European Aid to the Most Deprived (FEAD) was €3.94m for the 2014-20 period. FEAD operates on a funding year which differs from the standard financial year; the FEAD year runs 1st January to 31st December, and funding is allocated for the full 7-year programme. There is not a set amount allocated for each financial year, so the specific information in the question on allocation of funds for the year 2017 and 2018 is not available.</p><p>The funding information for the period 2014-20 is set out in detail at sections 1-7 in the published Explanatory Memorandum dated 23rd January 2018, reference 14699/18 COM (18)742, which is available at: <a href="http://europeanmemoranda.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/files/2019/01/EM_14699_18.pdf" target="_blank">http://europeanmemoranda.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/files/2019/01/EM_14699_18.pdf</a></p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 05/06/2019 13:53:16 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford attachment 1 file name EM_14699_18.pdf title EM 14699 - 18

	question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the decision by legislators in San Francisco to ban the use of facial recognition technology by local agencies; and what consideration they have given to introducing a similar ban in the UK until evidence of the effectiveness of such technology is more robust and the legal ground for widespread use is more clear.
	tabling member printed	Lord Scriven
	uin	HL15904
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2019 answer text <p>It is a matter for the San Francisco City Board of Supervisors whether its agencies should use facial recognition technology, and it is right to debate the use of new technologies in democratic societies.</p><p>Live Facial Recognition (LFR) has the potential to play an important role in tackling crime, and the police here have commissioned independent reviews of its effectiveness. The police have broad common law powers to prevent and detect crime, which allows them to use surveillance cameras and LFR in public places for policing purposes.</p><p>However, these powers must be exercised in accordance with the law including the Police and Criminal Evidence Act, Human Rights Act, Data Protection Act and having regard to the Surveillance Camera Code of Practice. Possible matches produced by LFR systems are always checked by a human operator before deciding what, if any, action to take.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 05/06/2019 13:54:37 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2019 answer text <p>The Home Office does not hold information on the number of individuals charged under The Assaults on Emergency Workers (Offences) Act, which came into effect on 13 November 2018. However, police forces in England and Wales provide the Home Office with data on the number of offences recorded of Assault or assault by beating of a constable or emergency worker that resulted in a charge.</p><p>Between 13 November 2018 to 31 December 2018, there were 947 offences recorded under the Assaults on Emergency Workers (Offences) Act 2018 that resulted in a charge. However, this provides an incomplete count of all individuals charged under this Act because some offences will result in more than one offender being charged and more serious incidents may result in a higher charge such as Grievous Bodily Harm.</p><p>The Home Office does not hold data on whether or not the incident occurred in connection with the services provided by the NHS.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 05/06/2019 13:57:30 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford

The purpose of the Independent Review, as set out in legislation, is to review the Government Strategy for supporting people vulnerable to being drawn into terrorism. Work is underway to appoint the independent Reviewer, define the Terms of Reference, and to recruit a secretariat to support this work.</p><p>To ensure this Review is open, transparent and objective, it will be conducted by a Reviewer who is independent from Government. The team which will support the work of the Review will sit outside the Office for Security and Counter Terrorism, which has lead responsibility for Prevent.</p><p>Prevent covers a broad remit and this will be reflected in the Terms of Reference. The House will be informed of the arrangements for the Independent Review of the Prevent Strategy, including the Terms of Reference, by 12 August 2019, as required by the Counter Terrorism and Border Security Act 2019 (six months from Royal Assent).</p><p>This review is an opportunity to further increase the transparency of the Prevent programme and engage with stakeholders. As I said in the House on 22 January 2019, I am happy to take suggestions on the Independent Review from Members of the House.</p><p>Once the Reviewer has been appointed, that person will have the discretion to decide how to engage stakeholders in the Review and how to draw on expert opinion on the wide range of issues involved in the delivery of Prevent.</p> answering member constituency Wyre and Preston North answering member printed Mr Ben Wallace grouped question UIN 259226 259227 259228 259229 question first answered 10/06/2019 15:38:45 answering member 1539 label Biography information for Mr Ben Wallace
