HMRC\u2019s work on tackling international tax avoidance and on issues related to overseas crown dependencies and territories takes place across a range of areas within HMRC; ranging from compliance activity, litigation through to policy making. The majority of tax compliance work relating to these areas takes place in its Customer Compliance Group. There are currently around 25,000 people working in HMRC tackling all forms of non-compliance in the tax system.<\/p>

This flexible resource gives HMRC the capability to effectively tackle compliance risks. HMRC officers are a flexible resource and may work on a number of cases involving several different customer groups\u2019 behaviours and risks at any one time.<\/p>

Border Force is responsible for tackling smuggling at the UK border. HMRC has staff that work closely with Border Force, and in the course of this joint working they will occasionally assist with anti-smuggling activity. HMRC is also responsible for the anti-fraud strategies that look to prevent the smuggling of excise goods such as tobacco, alcohol and oils, and for investigating smuggling offences. Given that HMRC compliance, analysis and investigation staff are charged with covering a wide range of activities, trying to identify the number who work on issues related to smuggling would require disproportionate effort.

The information requested is not held centrally. Teachers are not paid overtime as part of the national framework of terms and conditions.<\/p>

<\/p>

The School Teachers\u2019 Pay and Conditions Document (STPCD) sets out the terms and conditions, including working hours, of teachers employed in maintained schools in England. The STPCD requires that teachers be available for work on 195 days each year, of which 190 are teaching days (the other five being for INSET); teachers are also required to be available for 1265 hours each year to be allocated reasonably across these days. The 1265 hours make up the directed hours, which are available for headteachers to direct the work of teachers.<\/p>

<\/p>

In addition to the directed time, teachers must also work "such reasonable additional hours as may be necessary to enable the effective discharge of the teacher\u2019s professional duties".<\/p>

<\/p>

Non-maintained schools, including academies and free schools, are responsible for determining the pay and conditions of their staff themselves. Such schools are not obliged to follow the statutory arrangements set out in the STPCD, although they may still choose to do so if they wish.<\/p>

The Department collects robust information about teachers\u2019 working hours in both the Teaching and Learning International Survey and the Teacher Workload Survey, including time spent on teaching and non-teaching activities.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/111", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Nick Gibb"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Bognor Regis and Littlehampton"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Nick Gibb"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-06T16:21:41.52Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-03-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Teachers: Overtime"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate his Department has made of the number of (a) paid and (b) unpaid overtime hours worked by teachers in each year since 2010.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/308", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Jim Cunningham"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Coventry South"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Jim Cunningham"} ], "uin" : "227364"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1079571", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for International Development"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1079571/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The UK is concerned about the rising number of measles cases globally and is supporting efforts to reduce these in low income countries through investment in Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. The UK is the largest donor to Gavi, which has helped immunise over 700 million children since 2000 and prevented more than 10 million deaths from vaccine preventable diseases.<\/p>

<\/p>

Gavi is helping to reduce the number of measles cases by supporting routine immunisation. This is supplemented by rapid vaccination campaigns to stem outbreaks when they occur and limit the spread. Over 67 million people have been vaccinated through Gavi against measles through routine immunisation and over 370 million people have been vaccinated through campaigns.<\/p>

<\/p>

The UK will host Gavi\u2019s replenishment in 2020, demonstrating the UK's continued strong commitment to support Gavi's efforts to save children\u2019s lives from measles as well as other vaccine preventable diseases.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1201", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Alistair Burt"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North East Bedfordshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Alistair Burt"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-06T17:28:22.79Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "20"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "International Development"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-03-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Measles: Disease Control"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps her Department is taking to reduce the number of measles cases throughout the world.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/308", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Jim Cunningham"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Coventry South"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Mr Jim Cunningham"} ], "uin" : "227365"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1064579", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for International Development"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1064579/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The UK welcomes Oxfam\u2019s report into child, early and forced marriage (CEFM). The shocking number of girls married before the age of 18 in Nyal demonstrates how women and girls are suffering the worst effects of this brutal crisis.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

UK aid considers gender at all stages of the humanitarian and development programme cycle. Specifically, we support several efforts to integrate CEFM prevention and response, and women\u2019s empowerment activities into our work. Education is a key factor enabling girls to avoid child marriage and our Girls Education South Sudan (GESS) programme is keeping up to a quarter of a million girls in school. We also work with International Medical Corps in Nyal and other areas of the country to improve awareness of CEFM and to provide women and girls with information on all forms of gender-based violence, rights and services available. The programme also engages women in income generating activities and provides support to help them set up their own businesses.<\/p>
