hansard heading	Offences against Children: Mental Health Services
house id	1
legislature	25259 pref label House of Commons
question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how much funding his Department has allocated to the provision of therapy services for victims of child sexual abuse under the age of 13 in each year since 2010.
tabling member constituency	Ashfield
tabling member printed	Gloria De Piero
uin	257726
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/06/2019 answer text <p>The Government is committed to ensuring victims of sexual abuse feel that they can come forward to report abuse, and that they can get the support they need, whether they are a child or an adult. That is why we provide grant funding for victim support services across the country, which victims can access throughout their lifetime.</p><p> </p><p>The nature of this funding has evolved over time to reflect changes in demand and the changing nature of crime; hence we are unable to provide a consistent breakdown of funding since 2010.</p><p> </p><p>Since 2016/17, the Ministry of Justice have provided around £7m per year of ring-fenced funding specifically for provision of support to victims of recent and non-recent child sexual abuse (CSA). In 2018/19, this included £4.7m provided to the Police and Crime Commissioners to locally commission or deliver such services, £1.74m allocated directly to rape support centres and £0.58m allocated to a fund maintained by the Home Office for national and regional organisations supporting victims of recent and non-recent CSA. This funding is not age-restricted; hence we are unable to provide information around how much has been allocated to support individuals under 13.</p><p> </p><p>Victims and survivors of child sexual abuse are also supported by the NHS England-funded Sexual Assault Referral Centres (SARCs), which are open to all victims of sexual violence regardless of age and provide a range of services including crisis worker support and psychological therapy sessions to address any of victims’ immediate needs. This funding has increased significantly from £23m in 2016/17 to £35m in 2019/20, and supports work to improve the therapy offer for both children and adults.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 06/06/2019 16:40:34 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar

hansard heading	Youth Offending Teams: Grants
house id	1
legislature	25259 pref label House of Commons
question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the total value of Youth justice grants provided to local authorities to fund Youth Offending Teams was in each year since 2010, by council.
tabling member constituency	Leeds East
tabling member printed	Richard Burgon
uin	252658
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2019 answer text <p>Table A attached sets out the total funding the Youth Justice Board (YJB) has given to local authorities in each year from 2009/10 to 2017/18 as published in the 2017/18 annual youth justice statistics (published totals for 2018/19 are not yet available). Table B breaks this down by local authority. The majority of this funding helps support the day-to-day business of Youth Offending Teams (YOTs), but it also includes some discrete additional grants for specific projects or initiatives, for example funding for restorative justice. The annual recorded value of the additional grants is set out in Table C.</p><p> </p><p>Due to a change in reporting processes the additional grants given in 2014/15 and 2015/16 were not included in the published totals in the 2017/18 youth justice statistics. The totals for these years therefore differ between Table A (where the additional grants are not included) and Table B (where they are included).</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 05/06/2019 17:34:48 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar attachment 1 file name Tables 252658.docx title Table
