answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/06/2019 answer text <p>The use of spit and bite guards, as with any other use of restraint or force, is an operational policing matter. The Home Office does not, therefore, issue guidance on the use of the equipment.</p><p>However, the Home Secretary has been clear that being spat at is a totally unacceptable form of assault and police officers should have the equipment necessary to ensure they are protected as they perform their duties.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 13/06/2019 11:52:01 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/06/2019 answer text <p>We have checked the records that the department has kept since the introduction of the Cabinet Office guidance on settlement agreements on 1 February 2015 and confirm that we have one record, of using an NDA with a departmental staff member in July 2015.</p><p>The use of this NDA was unintentional i.e. the standard NDA paragraph was accidently left in the template by mistake. We are not aware of the Home Office using NDA for departmental staff other than this since the new guidance was introduced. However, the records examined were cross-matched from several different data sets, assembled for different purposes. As there were some gaps in the data sets, while we are confident this was the only instance, we cannot guarantee that we were able to identify every case.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 07/06/2019 16:22:23 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins
