uin	28643
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/03/2016 answer text <p>The Home Office deals with thousands of cases every year and litigants frequently rely on arguments based wholly or partly on the Human Rights Act 1998. In most cases, the 1998 Act is relied on in addition to other claims. The Government Legal Department’s records do not, historically, distinguish between cases where the 1998 Act is invoked and cases where it is not. Nor do they record how many suits were settled out of court before a judgment was delivered; or how much has been paid out in such settlements. Consequently, it is not possible to provide the information requested.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 01/03/2016 17:00:22 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
