This will be adapted for primary schools. <br><br>We continue to strengthen the law and send a clear message that knife possession will not be tolerated by legislating to restrict the use of simple cautions for certain offences, including knife possession, in the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill.</p><p /> answering member constituency Hornsey and Wood Green answering member printed Lynne Featherstone question first answered 11/12/2014 14:50:01 answering member 1531 label Biography information for Baroness Featherstone

From November 2014, all line managers have been formally required to monitor the hours their staff are working, including identifying appropriate additional work in cases where this is necessary.</p><p>Whilst most work relating to the Chamber and committees will cease during the Dissolution period there will be a significant amount of suitable alternative work required in preparation for the new Parliament.</p><p>There are regular formal and informal meetings with the recognised trades unions where these matters have been discussed. For example, four formal meetings were held with the trades unions during the period October to December 2014 and further formal meetings are scheduled in January and March 2015.</p> answering member constituency Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross answering member printed John Thurso question first answered 13/01/2015 17:21:11 answering member 1399 label Biography information for Viscount Thurso
