	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/05/2019 answer text <p>The information requested is not held centrally regarding data on the number of school days missed due to gang involvement or incidents of violence.</p><p>A Ministry of Justice study, ‘Examining the Educational Background of Young Knife Possession Offenders,’ showed that around 80% of young knife possession offenders had been persistently absent from education at some point over a five year period. Education is clearly a protective factor for young people, and regular attendance at school or at other education provision is important in ensuring every pupil can meet their full potential. The measures set out in the Government’s response to the Timpson review of school exclusion will play a key role in ensuring that every young person is safe and free to fulfil their potential away from violent crime.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 16/05/2019 14:19:03 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

Our priority remains delivering the deal to ensure a smooth and orderly exit before this date. While we do not want to leave with no deal and Parliament has also voted against this outcome three times, it remains the legal default at the end of the extension period in the event a Withdrawal Agreement cannot be agreed. As a responsible government we’ve been preparing to minimise any disruption in the event of no deal for over two years and will continue to prepare for all Brexit scenarios.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Braintree answering member printed James Cleverly question first answered 16/05/2019 13:58:58 answering member 4366 label Biography information for James Cleverly

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/05/2019 answer text <p>Delivering a deal negotiated with the EU remains the Government’s top priority. However, if the UK leaves the EU without a deal, the same customs rules will broadly apply to transporting instruments and equipment to the EU as apply to trade between the UK and non-EU countries. This will include the use of temporary admission and applications for Returned Goods Relief.</p><p> </p><p>Alternatively, ATA carnets are available for commercial goods, professional equipment or goods going to trade fair or exhibition in participating countries, which are moved on a temporary basis to a new customs territory (i.e. they will not be sold and will return to the country of origin). This includes musical instruments.</p><p> </p><p>In a no deal scenario, the process of using an ATA Carnet (or a temporary admission declaration) will become an acceptable option for moving goods temporarily between the UK and EU, as the UK will become a single customs territory. The process for obtaining and using a Carnet will remain as it is now.</p> answering member constituency Central Devon answering member printed Mel Stride question first answered 16/05/2019 13:41:53 answering member 3935 label Biography information for Mel Stride

That is why, in our White Paper on the UK’s future relationship with the EU, we said that whilst free movement of people will end, we want to agree reciprocal mobility arrangements with the EU that support businesses to provide services and move their talented people, and discuss how to facilitate the temporary mobility of self-employed professionals and employees providing services. The Immigration White Paper sets out the foundation for a single immigration system that will support the UK’s dynamic economy.</p><p>Our proposals for mobility arrangements with the EU are reflected in the Political Declaration on the future relationship, which contains a specific reference to the importance of mobility and temporary movement of objects and equipment in enabling cooperation in the cultural sector. The details will be discussed in the next phase of negotiations.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 16/05/2019 14:20:16 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

In order to deliver this objective, some LEPs have supported the creation of co-working spaces alongside advice and other support for business start-ups.

This figure incorporates monetised benefits relating to the extension of the right to request to all employees with 26 weeks continuous service and therefore does not take into account the flexible working among parents and carers that was already taking place prior to the extension.</p><p> </p><p>We are currently reviewing the 2014 extension of the right to request Flexible working to all eligible employees. The review will test the economic assumptions underpinning the cost-benefit analysis in the original impact assessment.</p> answering member constituency Rochester and Strood answering member printed Kelly Tolhurst question first answered 16/05/2019 13:38:20 answering member 4487 label Biography information for Kelly Tolhurst
