answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/09/2019 answer text <p>The Foreign and Commonwealth Office lead HMG policy on the Overseas Security and Justice Assistance (OSJA) Guidance. The Joint Funds Unit audit of CSSF OSJAs showed that the OSJA process was closely adhered to by programme teams. Although OSJAs are not required to be completed until after programme design is finalised, the audit found that many programme managers considered OSJA from earlier in the process, ensuring that human rights considerations were built into programmes from the initial stages.</p><p>The audit found that a number of simple improvements, such as ensuring the audit trail of approvals is completed, would help improve the quality of OSJAs across the board and better reflect the level of analysis given to human rights risks.</p><p>As stated in the answer to Question 280367, in response to the audit’s recommendations the JFU is updating CSSF programmatic guidance and the Stabilisation Unit is updating its core security and justice training for HMG staff to align with the revised guidance.</p><p>There are no plans to publish the OSJA audit or the recommendations in full.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hertsmere answering member printed Oliver Dowden question first answered 30/09/2019 12:20:05 answering member 4441 label Biography information for Oliver Dowden
