	uin	51543
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/06/2020 answer text <p>I refer the Hon. Member to the answer given on 21st October 2019. Access to Child Benefit follows the long-standing Government policy that those who have not established their right to remain permanently in the UK should not have welfare provision on the same basis as those whose citizenship or status here gives them an entitlement to benefits. All those admitted to the UK for a temporary purpose are required, under the immigration rules, to be able to maintain and accommodate themselves without recourse to public funds.</p><p>For this reason, apart from specified exceptions – set out in the Social Security (Immigration and Asylum Consequential Amendments) Regulations 2000 – persons subject to immigration control are not eligible for Child Benefit.</p><p>However, individuals who have no recourse to public funds can access many services including the NHS, statutory sick pay and some other work-related benefits. Local Authorities also have a statutory duty to provide support to families subject to the NRPF condition where a child’s wellbeing is in question.</p><p>In addition, they are able to access support measures put in place to respond to the Covid-19 global pandemic, including the Job Retention and Self-Employed Income Support schemes, free school meals, mortgage payment holidays and protection from eviction.</p><p>Eligible immigrants with a condition of NRPF can apply to the Home Office to have this lifted if their financial circumstances change.</p><p><em> </em></p><p>Further information on the support that is available for migrants subject to NRPF can be found here: <a href="https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gov.uk%2Fguidance%2Fcoronavirus-covid-19-get-support-if-youre-a-migrant-living-in-the-uk&amp;data=02%7C01%7Cdenise.newman%40hmrc.gov.uk%7Cb7a3cc5300234a364efc08d809446f2b%7Cac52f73cfd1a4a9a8e7a4a248f3139e1%7C0%7C0%7C637269536809045972&amp;sdata=pFu4CgPYKglsjA3LWxvdRdaHLJ3HnYrrYMoYv3i%2BxFs%3D&amp;reserved=0" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-get-support-if-youre-a-migrant-living-in-the-uk</a>.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Steve Barclay question first answered 08/06/2020 14:04:18 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay

This will require mutual confidence in regulatory and supervisory structures, and will reflect the level of cooperation in this area. The Chief Minister of Gibraltar has confirmed that Gibraltar will meet UK standards of regulation, supervision and enforcement consistent with global standards which will allow its important financial sector to maintain its access to the UK. The UK Government and the Government of Gibraltar are in ongoing discussions on how to achieve this, looking first at insurance where cross-border trade is most significant.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 12/10/2017 11:00:55 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay
