question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what assessment her Department has made of the effect of current regulations on spousal visas on low wage families in the UK; and if she will amend spousal visa application criteria to take into account potential employment opportunities that migrant spouses might have to bridge the minimum income threshold.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2015 answer text <p>We welcome those who wish to make a life in the UK with their family, work hard and make a contribution, but family life must not be established here at the taxpayer's expense. The minimum income threshold under the family Immigration Rules for sponsoring a non-European Economic Area national spouse to come to the UK aims to prevent burdens on the taxpayer and promote integration. Its level reflects advice from the independent Migration Advisory Committee on the income which means a family settled in the UK will generally cease to be able to access income-related benefits.</p><p>The employment prospects of the migrant spouse are no guarantee that they will find work in the UK. Those with an appropriate job offer here can apply under Tier 2 of the Points Based System. Migrant spouses coming to the UK under the family route must be capable of being independently supported by their sponsor or by their joint savings or non-employment income. The courts have agreed that this is a matter of public policy for the Government and Parliament to determine.</p> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 14/09/2015 15:26:29 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what procedures are in place to ensure that the police make prosecutors aware of the overseas criminal convictions of (a) foreign and (b) UK citizens appearing in court for the purposes of bail and sentencing.
tabling member constituency	Shipley

uin	9387
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2015 answer text <p>The Criminal Procedure Rules place the responsibility for alerting the court to any defendant’s previous convictions, both domestic and overseas, whether for the purposes of bail or for the purposes of sentencing, on the prosecutor. Courts must give consideration to that information when it is available but rely on the Police to obtain and provide it.</p><p>In the last five years, the Government has made huge progress in requesting and obtaining criminal record data from other countries about foreign nationals who are arrested in the UK. Since 2010 checks on foreign nationals going through the UK criminal justice system have increased by nearly 1,500%, helping us to take more foreign criminals off our streets and making our communities safer.</p><p>Work is under way to improve processes used by the police when relaying overseas convictions to prosecutors. Digitisation of these processes will enable officers to flag up whether a check has been completed and whether detained persons have any overseas convictions. To assist the courts, the Government will shortly be providing guidance to Her Majesty’s Courts and Tribunal Service on obtaining and using overseas conviction data in criminal proceedings.</p><p>The ACRO Criminal Records Office has also been looking to improve access to the overseas convictions of UK nationals convicted abroad and, where appropriate, this information is placed onto the Police National Computer so that it is available in the event that the subject appears before the courts.</p> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 14/09/2015 15:27:02 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many people granted temporary asylum as children have been denied permanent asylum upon applying as an adult by country of origin in each of the last 10 years.
tabling member constituency	Aberdeen North
tabling member printed	Kirsty Blackman
uin	9321
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2015 answer text <p>The Home Office does not return Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC) whose claims have been refused, unless adequate reception arrangements are in place in the country to which the child is to be returned. If adequate reception arrangements are absent, most unaccompanied children are granted temporary leave to remain (UASC Leave) which usually continues until their 18th birthday. When a child passes the age of 18 and their UASC Leave expires, they are no longer considered to be an unaccompanied asylum seeking child and are therefore required to take steps to return voluntarily or seek further leave to remain. If the individual does not seek to regularise their stay through further applications or leave is not granted they may be removed should they fail to leave voluntarily. The table below provides the number of people granted UASC Leave as children and who have been denied permanent asylum upon applying as an adult by country of origin in each of the last 10

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2015 answer text <p>The Home Office does not return Unaccompanied Asylum Seeking Children (UASC) whose claims have been refused, unless adequate reception arrangements are in place in the country to which the child is to be returned. If adequate reception arrangements are absent, most unaccompanied children are granted temporary leave to remain (UASC Leave) which usually continues until their 18th birthday. When a child passes the age of 18 and their UASC Leave expires, they are no longer considered to be an unaccompanied asylum seeking child and are therefore required to take steps to return voluntarily or seek further leave to remain. If the individual does not seek to regularise their stay through further applications or leave is not granted they may be removed should they fail to leave voluntarily. The table below provides the number of people granted UASC Leave as children and who have been denied permanent asylum upon applying as an adult by country of origin in each of the last 10

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/09/2015 answer text <p>The Government has no plans to provide funds to other EU Member States to care for migrants or refugees arriving in other parts of Europe. We will, however, continue to provide practical support coordinated by the European Asylum Support Office (EASO) in the form of expertise to help build capacity in States facing particular pressures.</p><p>HM Government has already committed £900 million in humanitarian aid to the humanitarian crisis in Syria and the region. A further £100 million announced in the past few days, brings our commitment to £1bn, more than any other country in the world except the United States.</p><p>In addition, the Chancellor has announced a fundamental review of how the aid budget is used . The current Syrian resettlement scheme is funded through a mixture of Official Development Assistance and EU funds: we are using the aid budget to help some of the most vulnerable people in the world and to relieve the pressure on local communities.</p> answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire question first answered 14/09/2015 15:28:33 answering member 1530 label Biography information for James Brokenshire
