uin	HL11
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/05/2016 answer text <p>Electors who need to keep their name and address anonymous are able to submit an application for anonymous registration. As part of their application, electors must satisfy the Electoral Registration Officer that their safety, or that of people they live with, would be at risk if the register contained their name and address. For this purpose electors must provide either a court order or an attestation by a “qualifying officer”, which includes senior police officers and chief social workers. The evidential threshold for applications for anonymous electoral registration is to ensure that it is available only to those whose personal safety would genuinely be at risk if their details appeared on the electoral register, rather than for the purpose of gaining additional privacy.</p> answering member printed Lord Bridges of Headley question first answered 31/05/2016 13:37:54 answering member 4535 label Biography information for Lord Bridges of Headley

uin	37417
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/05/2016 answer text <p>The Government has not made an assessment of the level of procurement of British steel by local authorities in England and it does not collect or hold this information centrally.</p><p>Last year Government issued guidance across central government, which sets out how government buyers should source steel for major projects in a more strategic and transparent way. This is underpinned by more detailed guidance explaining how Government departments should take into account the social impacts of competing suppliers as well as environmental factors for certain procurements involving steel.</p><p>In April 2016, Government announced that the guidance on procuring steel would be extended to the wider public sector. We are working with key stakeholders to take this forward so that we can maximise take-up of the guidance across the wider public sector.</p><p>As local government procurement policy is a devolved matter, it is for the devolved administrations of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales to determine how they will conduct any assessment for their local authorities.</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matthew Hancock question first answered 27/05/2016 13:08:52 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
