answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/01/2019 answer text <table><tbody><tr><td><p>Individuals concerned about the potential impact of an unreliable test result in their case can make an application to the family court to change, or set aside, the final order made in their case. The Government has established a bespoke process to do so through form C650 and has waived the court fee for all applications made using this process. This was announced by the Minister for Policing in a written Ministerial statement on 21 November 2017 (HCWS265). My department then wrote to the Justice Select Committee and a number of key stakeholders to draw their attention to this process including the Law Society, the Bar Council and the Association of Lawyers for Children. Information about the court process and a link to form C650 is publicly available at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/forensic-toxicology-tests.</p></td></tr></tbody></table> answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer question first answered 23/01/2019 15:46:08 answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer previous answer version 96074 answering member constituency South East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Lucy Frazer answering member 4517 label Biography information for Lucy Frazer

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/01/2019 answer text <p>The UK has some of the toughest powers in the world to deal with sex offenders and we are committed to ensuring that the system is as robust as it can be.</p><p>Registered sex offenders are managed in the community by the police, who are best placed to identify their risks and determine how frequently they conduct home visits.</p><p>In 2017, the police made key changes to their management regime. Officers can now determine the frequency of home visits as part of a personalised risk management plan, instead of visiting all offenders a set number of times based on their risk category. Importantly, success is not measured solely by the completion of home visits, but through careful consideration of a range of factors, including the quality of the risk management plan and their progress in completing actions.</p><p>We continue to work with the Police and other law enforcement agencies to ensure that the right powers are available for the authorities to tackle sexual crimes and to bring perpetrators to justice.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 21/01/2019 15:54:40 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd
