answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/09/2015 answer text <p>Some 500 local staff are eligible to apply for relocation to the UK under the Ex Gratia Redundancy scheme, of which over 170 local staff are now residing in the UK along with their families. In addition to the redundancy scheme our intimidation policy supports all staff, regardless of role or employment duration, who may be facing security risks as a result of their work with British Forces.</p><p>The UK is the only nation with a permanent team including trained investigation officers in country to investigate claims of intimidation. These experts thoroughly and professionally investigate all claims of intimidation and have provided support to over 200 former local staff including bespoke security advice and financial support for some 30 relocations within Afghanistan. We have not found an intimidation case where the threat is such that we need to relocate the local staff to the UK to make them safe. This intimidation policy is open-ended, and applies to all local staff regardless of date or duration of service.</p> answering member constituency Portsmouth North answering member printed Penny Mordaunt question first answered 10/09/2015 16:09:12 answering member 4017 label Biography information for Penny Mordaunt
