answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/02/2015 answer text <p>The information requested is <ins class="ministerial">shown</ins> in the following table. The figures are based on the number of civil penalties issued to individual employers during each of the last five complete financial years. This includes public and private limited <br />companies, sole traders, partnerships and franchises. <br /><br />The government is committed to taking effective action against employers of illegal workers. Illegal working drives illegal immigration which leads to exploitation of workers and is also linked to non payment of the national <br />minimum wage, harmful working conditions and tax evasion. Illegal working also undercuts legitimate businesses and adversely impacts on the employment of people who are lawfully resident in the UK.<br /><br />The government has therefore taken measures to strengthen our approach to rogue employers. In 2014, we doubled the maximum civil penalty that can be levied against an employer to £20,000 per illegal worker and we used the Immigration Act 2014 to make it easier to enforce unpaid penalties in the courts. We have also extended our enforcement reach by working more closely across government departments to identify where illegal working is taking place and to enforce a range of sanctions against employers of illegal workers.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><ins class="ministerial">Financial year </ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">Civil penalties issued </ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">Employers issued with civil penalties </ins></td></tr><tr><td><ins class="ministerial">2009-10</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">2,339</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">2,254</ins></td></tr><tr><td><ins class="ministerial">2010-11</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">1,899</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">1,849</ins></td></tr><tr><td><ins class="ministerial">2011-12</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">1,341</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">1,317</ins></td></tr><tr><td><ins class="ministerial">2012-13</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">1,270</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">1,247</ins></td></tr><tr><td><ins class="ministerial">2013-14</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">2,150</ins></td><td><ins class="ministerial">2,090</ins></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 04/02/2015 12:43:46 question first ministerially corrected 06/02/2015 10:41:06 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning previous answer version 42849 answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/02/2015 answer text <p>In answering this question I have included core MoJ and its larger Executive Agencies (NOMS, HMCTS, LAA) in the figures in the table below. The smaller Executive Agencies (Office of the Public Guardian, Criminal Injuries Compensations Authority) have not been included. The figures show a drop of spending of £426,844.38 (92.98%) between 2008/09 and the 2013/14 figure, the last full year figure included.</p><p> </p><p>Since 2010, spend on hospitality has fallen significantly. Reasons for this include measures taken to ban lunches, teas and coffees for internal meetings. Any such refreshments for meetings with external stakeholders are only provided in exceptional circumstances and require sign off from a Director General. No alcohol is provided for staff from departmental funds and when hospitality is provided to external parties, such as a modest amount of wine with a meal, this requires Director General level approval. The department has also put in place a block on Government Procurement Cards, preventing payments to bars and restaurants.</p><p /> <p /><table><tbody><tr><td colspan="3"><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong>MoJ core and Agency spend on Hospitality and related catering since April 2008:</strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"><strong> </strong></ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">MoJ HQ</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">Nac Level 6</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY08/09</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY09/10</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY10/11</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY11/12</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY12/13</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY13/14</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">FY14/15 to end Oct-14</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">224226-Entertainment</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">3,773.76</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0.00</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">585.29</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">327.90</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">326.40</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">60.00</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">252.52</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">224227-Hospitality</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">18,572.77</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">18,755.64</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">6,584.20</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">3,095.97</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2,893.31</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">1,312.56</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">745.45</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial"> </ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">224228-External Lunches &amp;
