answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/04/2014 answer text <p>The Government consulted publicly on whether licensing hours should be relaxed during the FIFA World Cup 2014. A range of representations were made both for and against the proposal. We received a total of 1,468 responses to the online consultation. 77% (1,095 respondents) believed that any national relaxation of licensing hours should apply to England and Wales. However, only 2% (25 respondents) identified themselves as living or working in Wales. <br><br>While a majority of Welsh respondents favoured a relaxation for England and Wales, there was a difference between English and Welsh respondents about how the relaxation might be delivered. There was a clear majority of Welsh respondents who favoured using the Temporary Event Notice system, rather than a blanket relaxation, while of English respondents the majority (74%) favoured a blanket relaxation. This is consistent with what the Government has opted to do: a national blanket relaxation in England, with licensed premises able to use the Temporary Event Notice system in Wales.<br><br>Section 172 of the Licensing Act 2003 allows the relevant Secretary of State to make an order relaxing opening hours for licensed premises to mark occasions of ‘exceptional international, national or local significance'. The Government considers that the England football team's participation in the FIFA World Cup 2014 is an event of exceptional national significance in England. <br><br>The Government has therefore decided not to include Wales in the relaxation of licensing hours for the FIFA World Cup 2014. However, licensed premises in Wales wishing to remain open beyond their licensed hours will be able to do so by using the Temporary Event Notice procedure.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Lewes answering member printed Norman Baker question first answered 30/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 28 label Biography information for Norman Baker previous answer version 5664 answering member constituency Lewes answering member printed Norman Baker answering member 28 label Biography information for Norman Baker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/05/2014 answer text <p> </p><p>The majority of police officers serving in London and elsewhere do their jobs <br>well, serving their communities with dedication and professionalism. We are <br>building on this by:<br>• Delivering the first-ever Code of Ethics, which is due to be published <br>shortly by the College of Policing. The Code sets out clearly the high <br>standards of behaviour expected from all police officers and staff of all ranks;<br>• Establishing, through the College of Policing, a set of national registers of <br>chief officer reward packages, gifts and hospitality and business interests <br>including second jobs. The College is also producing a national register of <br>&quot;struck-off&quot; officers to record those dismissed for misconduct, ensuring that <br>those individuals are not re-employed by the police;<br>• Legislating for a new offence of police corruption, supplementing the <br>existing offence of misconduct in public office and focusing clearly on those <br>who hold police powers, as an amendment to the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill <br>already before Parliament;<br>• Strengthening the Independent Police Complaints Commission so that it will <br>have responsibility for dealing with all serious and sensitive cases involving <br>the police. HM Chief Inspector of Constabulary has also been commissioned to <br>look specifically at the anti-corruption capability of police forces, including <br>professional standards departments;<br>• Advertising now for Direct Entry to the police this autumn at Superintendent <br>level, which will bring a fresh perspective and approach and will open up <br>policing culture; and<br>• Introducing a comprehensive package of reform to stop and search which will <br>contribute to a significant reduction in the overall use of the powers, better <br>and more intelligence-led stop-and-search, and improved stop-to-arrest ratios.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Ashford answering member printed Damian Green question first answered 12/05/2014 12:00:00 answering member 76 label Biography information for Damian Green
