star this property answer text <p>This Government is committed to transforming the response to domestic abuse and on 8 March we launched a consultation seeking views on a range of options to ensure victims are afforded the greatest possible protection and perpetrators are brought to justice. The consultation outlined a range of legislative proposals for a landmark Domestic Abuse Bill, together with a package of non-legislative measures.</p><p>As we develop the proposals following feedback from the consultation, we are in regular communication with other Government departments including the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, using forums such as the Inter-Ministerial Group on Violence against Women and Girls, in order to discuss how to transform the government’s response to domestic abuse.</p><p>We plan to publish our consultation response and draft Domestic Abuse Bill later this session.</p> more like this

This is based on the action plan announced in July 2017 which is focused on ensuring effective support to victims and survivors, supporting effective policing, ensuring that the legislation is understood and consistently applied, and restricting access to acids and other harmful corrosive products.</p><p>We are working with the National Police Chiefs’ Council on delivery to ensure that the policing response is effective to prevent attacks from happening in the first place, but also in providing support to victims where they do. The National Police Chiefs’ Council has developed appropriate training for officers, including first responder training, specialist investigative guidance to help police officers understand how to safely recover and handle any evidence at the scene and the evidence required to build a case for prosecution.</p><p>We are also strengthening the powers available to the police through the Offensive Weapons Bill which is currently passing through Parliament. The Bill includes legislative measures on stopping the sale and delivery of corrosive products to under 18s and making it an offence to possess a corrosive substance in a public place.</p><p>Alongside this, the Home Secretary announced on 20 February 2019 that we will be extending stop and search powers for corrosive substances to allow the police to be able to enforce the new possession offence effectively. <br>We are also working with the Government’s Defence Science and Technology Laboratory to develop corrosive testing kits for the police to support them in situations where they believe that a suspect is carrying a corrosive substance in public.</p><p>In addition, the Government has commissioned the University of Leicester to examine what motivates offenders to carry and use acid and other corrosive substances in violent attacks. The research findings are expected to be available later this year, and these will help to inform further preventative and enforcement responses.</p>

The review has improved the Government’s understanding of the nature, scale and sources of funding for Islamist extremism in the UK.</p><p> </p><p>The review’s single most important finding was that the most significant source of funding for Islamist extremism in the UK is small, private donations from UK-based individuals. There are however a small number of UK-based organisations with which there are extremism concerns, for which overseas funding is a significant source of income. In response to the review, the Charity Commission plan to introduce a requirement on charities to declare overseas sources of funding to increase transparency in this area.</p><p> </p><p>The review’s report is classified but the Written Ministerial Statement is a comprehensive and representative reflection of the review’s findings. The Government has no plans to comment further on the review’s findings and it will not provide a running commentary on the groups, individuals or sources it considers to be of extremism concern.</p>

star this property answer text <p>The Rugby World Cup is expected to attract 466,000 international visitors to England – more than any previous RWC. Research from Visit Britain tells us that sport tourists traditionally stay for longer, have a propensity to travel around the country and spend more money when doing so. International visitors are expected to contribute up to £869 million in direct expenditure to the UK economy. Last year, an economic impact study by EY estimated a boost of almost £1bn to the UK’s GDP (of £2.2bn total spend generated). This includes £85m of infrastructure projects and the support of 41,000 jobs.</p><p>There are strong plans to drive legacy benefits from the tournament. The Rugby Football Union (RFU) is working to spread the game's popularity and there are also plans around the host cities to maximise economic and community benefits.</p><p>The RFU's plans to grow the game include:</p><br /><ul><li>improving facilities through £10m investment</li><li>investing in people, including by recruiting and training nearly 3,000 referees and over 3,000 new coaches, and recruiting 6,000 volunteers ('the Pack') to help run the tournament</li><li>increasing schools’ participation in rugby, especially state schools. 130,000 new state school pupils have played rugby, of whom a third are girls and of whom 3,000 are now playing regularly for a club</li><li>attracting 16-24 year old players back to clubs</li><li>promoting touch rugby to appeal to more people</li><li>the Unity Project to promote rugby in Europe’s developing rugby nations; and</li><li>cultural engagement through over 700 rugby themed events and celebrations.</li></ul><br /><p>DCMS and the Government continue to be fully supportive of these plans.UK Trade &amp; Investment (UKTI) is coordinating a Rugby World Cup Business Festival programme of activity across 8 of 9 regions, aligned to the locations of fixtures. A Global Investment Conference (GIC), hosted by UKTI, launched the festival on 17 September 2015 at Lancaster House. This brought together government leaders and 150 senior potential and existing investors from 9 key Foreign Direct Investment target market countries with teams competing in the tournament.</p>
