answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/05/2019 answer text <p>It is not possible to identify the number of social care workers that were prosecuted for abusing older adults in care in each of the last 5 years from the broader offences:</p><ul><li>Care provider ill-treat / wilfully neglect an individual or breach duty of care</li><li>Ill-treatment or neglect of a person lacking capacity by anyone responsible for that person’s care</li></ul><p> </p><p>The offences do not specify whether or not the defendant was a social worker nor do they specify the age of the victim. Detailed information may be held on individual court records but to be able to identify these cases we would have to access these individual court records which would be of disproportionate cost.</p> answering member constituency South Swindon answering member printed Robert Buckland question first answered 29/05/2019 16:52:42 answering member 4106 label Biography information for Sir Robert Buckland

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/05/2019 answer text <p>Under the Animal Welfare Act 2006, local authorities, in common with the Animal and Plant Health Agency and the police, have powers of entry to inspect complaints of suspected animal cruelty and take out prosecutions where necessary. Local authorities are able to make decisions based on local needs and the arrangements that work best for them, and it is for local authorities to determine how to prioritise their resources. The Government is investing in Britain’s future, and this year’s local government finance settlement includes extra funding for local services. Local authorities will have access to £46.4 billion this financial year (2019/20) to meet the needs of their residents. This is a cash increase of 2.8% and a real terms increase which will strengthen services and support for local communities.</p> answering member constituency Macclesfield answering member printed David Rutley question first answered 22/05/2019 15:59:51 answering member 4033 label Biography information for David Rutley
