answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/12/2018 answer text <p>Ministers and officials regularly meet key stakeholders, including Directors of Children’s Services (DCSs), to discuss policy issues relating to the department’s agenda. For example, I recently met with DCSs and Local Authority Chief Executives at the National Children and Adult Services Conference, held recent roundtables in the department with groups of both DCSs and Chief Executives, and have attended induction events for new DCSs, the last one being in October 2019. In addition, my right hon. Friend, the Secretary of the State and I have very recently met with a number of children in care to hear their views and experiences. The department recognises how important it is to speak directly with those who are on the front line, delivering services for children and families.</p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 20/12/2018 15:57:31 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

uin	201563
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/12/2018 answer text <p>The educational outcomes for children who experience abuse and neglect are markedly worse than for all children and these children face long term challenges in education and beyond. Three fifths (61%) of children starting to be looked-after during the year ending 31 March 2018 were identified as having a primary need of abuse or neglect[1]. The average Attainment 8 score for all looked-after children was 19.3 in 2017 compared to 44.5 for non-looked after children[2]. In addition, two fifths (39%) of all care leavers aged 19 to 21 were not in education, employment or training during the year ending 31 March 2018 compared to around 12% of young people of a similar age[3].</p><p> </p><p>Research evidence suggests that the care system generally provides a protective factor for vulnerable children with early admission to care being associated with better educational outcomes than later entry[4]. This is why we have increased spending on the most vulnerable children by over £1.5 billion since 2010 and at the budget we announced an extra £410 million next year for social care, including children – alongside £84 million over the next five years to keep more children safely at home with their families.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>[1] Children looked-after in England including adoption: 2017 to 2018: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/children-looked-after-in-england-including-adoption-2017-to-2018" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/children-looked-after-in-england-including-adoption-2017-to-2018</a>.</p><p>[2] Outcomes for children looked-after by local authorities: 31 March 2017: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/outcomes-for-children-looked-after-by-las-31-march-2017" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/outcomes-for-children-looked-after-by-las-31-march-2017</a>.</p><p>[3] Not in education, employment or training statistics quarterly brief: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-neet" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-neet</a>.</p><p>[4] The Educational Progress of Looked-After Children in England: Linking Care and Educational Data, Rees Centre Oxford, 2015.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Stratford-on-Avon answering member printed Nadhim Zahawi question first answered 19/12/2018 09:08:39 answering member 4113 label Biography information for Nadhim Zahawi

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/12/2018 answer text <p>The Conflict, Stability and Security Fund takes its responsibility to manage human rights risk very seriously and has robust processes in place to do so. All projects must comply with the UK’s domestic and international human rights obligations. Measures to mitigate risks are embedded in the way our programme teams work. Teams are required to identify a range of risks, including human rights, ahead of starting a programme and must continue to monitor those, and any emerging risks, throughout implementation.</p><p> </p><p>In addition as part of an additional risk management process all security and justice programmes must have an Overseas Security and Justice Assessment (OSJA) which has been approved at the appropriate level, if necessary by Ministers. The CSSF confirms OSJAs are in place for all security and justice programmes as part of the annual review process. The CSSF does not hold a central record of all OSJAs.</p> answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington question first answered 18/12/2018 10:40:41 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
