answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/10/2015 answer text <p>The UK has worked hard to lead efforts across the globe to ensure that a target to end violence against women and girls formed part of the agreed UN Sustainable Development Goals. We are pleased that a strong gender goal was included as one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals adopted at the United Nations General Assembly, which includes targets on violence against women and girls, harmful practices, female genital mutilation and child early and forced marriage. Seeing these Sustainable Development Goals and targets implemented is a continuing top priority for the UK.</p> answering member constituency Putney answering member printed Justine Greening question first answered 12/10/2015 12:14:27 answering member 1555 label Biography information for Justine Greening
