answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/01/2020 answer text <p>The Government is committed to delivering the people’s priorities including the recruitment of an additional 20,000 police officers over the next three years.</p><p>Police officer entry requirements are set by the College of Policing. The Home Office is working with the National Police Chiefs Council, the College of Policing and forces to ensure there are no undue barriers for anyone who is qualified to do so from joining the police. New entry routes introduced by the College of Policing have been designed to equip officers with the skills they need for modern policing. The new training curriculum includes cyber-enabled crime, vulnerability and risk, well-being and resilience, criminology and crime prevention. Many forces are already using these new entry routes.</p><p>While the police workforce is more representative in terms of gender and ethnicity than it has ever been, there is still much more to be done. We have been clear that the uplift in officers is an important opportunity to improve diversity. However, recruitment is not the only way in which Forces can improve equality and diversity. Retention and progression also play a crucial role, particularly in enabling officers and staff to move into more senior and more specialised ranks and roles.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse grouped question UIN 464 465 question first answered 14/01/2020 17:07:29 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/10/2019 answer text <p>Companies need to take responsibility for tackling abusive behaviour on their services, including taking steps to limit anonymised users abusing their services. However online anonymity is an important principle of a free and open internet and there are many legitimate reasons why an individual would not wish to identify themselves online - including to protect whistle-blowers and empower victims of modern slavery and domestic and sexual abuse. Globally, anonymity can be especially important for allowing human rights defenders and journalists to operate, especially within authoritarian regimes, without fear of undue reprisal and detention.</p> answering member constituency Boston and Skegness answering member printed Matt Warman question first answered 21/10/2019 16:46:53 answering member 4361 label Biography information for Matt Warman
