answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/07/2016 answer text <p>The UK strongly welcomes the plan agreed between the EU and Turkey to end irregular migration from Turkey to the EU. For the first time, we have a plan that breaks the business model of the people smugglers by cutting the link between getting in a boat and getting settlement in Europe. The numbers of migrants arriving on Greek islands has significantly reduced since this deal came into effect and it is making a genuine difference to managing the flows of migration; preventing people from dying in attempting the crossing or putting themselves in the hands of smugglers.</p><p>The UK takes the view that Turkey offers sufficient protection, in its law and its practice, to return people there. Turkey is already hosting over 2.7 million Syrian refugees and has granted them access to healthcare, education and the labour market. We are also pleased to note that, since the 18 March EU-Turkey migration deal, Turkey has reached agreements with the European Commission and the UN High Commissioner for Refugees in providing them with access to the Düziçi Camp and Kirklareli Removal Centre. The UK continues to work with Turkey to deliver further improvements to their immigration and asylum services.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 14/07/2016 14:38:39 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what is their assessment of the impact of the proposed Sharia penal code on human rights, women's rights and religious freedoms in Brunei.
tabling member printed	Lord Patten
uin	HL928
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/07/2014 answer text <p>Implementation of Brunei’s criminal sharia code is planned in three phases, the first of which came into effect on 1 May 2014. No prosecutions have yet been brought under the new code and to date we assess the impact of the new code has been limited. However, a lack of clarity over implementation and intent has caused concern. We have urged the authorities in Brunei to consider the implementation of the new code carefully and ensure that it is in line with international human rights norms and Brunei’s international obligations. UK Ministers have clearly set out our views to the most senior levels of the Bruneian government and will continue to do so.</p> answering member printed Baroness Warsi question first answered 21/07/2014 11:57:54 answering member 3839 label Biography information for Baroness Warsi
