answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/03/2015 answer text <p>The Civil Contingencies Act places the primary responsibility for emergency planning on local responders working together. This activity at local level is constantly developing in the light of testing and exercising and actual events. It is supported at the national level by a range of activities including the production of the National Risk Assessment (NRA), a classified biennial assessment that identifies and prioritises the most significant emergencies the UK could face over the next five years, with the 2014 NRA having recently been made available to local responders; the cross-government National Resilience Capability Programme supported by the 2014 National Capability Survey, a voluntary biennial survey of local responders which provides data to government and enables self-improvement activity at the local tier; and the doctrine and training provided by the Emergency Planning College. In addition, the government’s annual review of UK resilience continues to consider the local, regional, and national level issues that pose the greatest risks to the UK.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency West Dorset answering member printed Mr Oliver Letwin question first answered 24/03/2015 15:26:40 answering member 247 label Biography information for Sir Oliver Letwin

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/03/2015 answer text <p>Tackling rural crime is clearly important but it is not for the Home Office to set targets for local policing. We have introduced Police and Crime Commissioners to ensure democratic accountability for local crime and policing matters. They are best placed to set priorities for tackling crime in their local area, including addressing the needs of rural communities.<br><br>Local policing priorities are determined by police and crime commissioners, following consultation with the chief constable and the public, and are published in their Police and Crime Plan. We have transferred responsibility for crime statistics to the independent Office for National Statistics, introduced a new Crime Outcomes Framework to provide greater transparency and abolished 'one size fits all' performance targets. Under this Government, the police have just one objective: to cut crime.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hemel Hempstead answering member printed Mike Penning question first answered 24/03/2015 15:23:01 answering member 1528 label Biography information for Sir Mike Penning
