answer text <p>Stop and search is a vital policing tool when used correctly and officers have the Government's full support to use these powers in a way that is fair, lawful and effective.</p><p>The Home Secretary has been clear that he wants officers to feel confident, trusted and supported when they are using stop and search powers, which form one part of our broader strategy to tackle violence.</p><p>We are therefore looking at ways to reduce bureaucracy and increase efficiency in the use of this power to ensure the police feel better able to use these powers where they have reasonable grounds to do so.</p><p>Both the Home Secretary and I engage with the Chief Constables on a regular basis to discuss matters of concern, including the use of stop and search and recent incidents of knife crime, especially in London.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The UK Government committed €50 million in order to implement a range of agreed actions under the terms of the 2018 Sandhurst Treaty. Payments from this package have been made across the course of the 18/19 financial year as and when required by specific projects.

We are forecasting to spend the full package allocated to this work.</p><p>Within this package, £3.6 million was specifically allocated to funding the development of the Dublin process to support transfers of eligible children to the UK. The Dublin III Regulation is a long-standing mechanism between EU Member States to determine responsibility for examining asylum claims. The Government has committed to publishing regular updates on the number of requests processed under the Dublin III Regulation. The latest figures will be published on 28th February 2019 as part of the wider quarterly release of Migration Statistics.</p><p>Migration cooperation between the UK and France, including implementation of the Sandhurst Treaty is overseen by the senior official UK-France Migration Committee, which generally meets alternately in Paris and London on a bi-monthly basis. The minutes of those meetings are confidential and to disclose them would risk injuring relations with an important foreign ally.</p>

answer text <p>The Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) number is not used by the NHS for administrative purposes and there is no advantage in printing it on the biometric residence permit (BRP).</p><p>Surcharge payers can use their BRP to evidence their status as part of the eligibility checks carried out by the NHS. The Home Office shares data with the NHS in England on those who have paid the surcharge, or who are exempt from doing so and are entitled to free NHS care. It also provides checking services for the NHS in other parts of the UK. These services help the NHS establish whether a patient is chargeable.</p> more like this
