Since the reform of the Housing Revenue Account and the introduction of Self-Financing in April 2012, a proportion of receipts are paid to Treasury in order to (a) reflect the reduction in the amount owed by local authorities to Treasury as part of the Self-Financing Settlement and (b) to tackle the budget deficit left by the last Administration.<\/p>

<\/p>

The attached table shows those parts of the receipts arising from Right to Buy (or equivalent) sales received in each London borough in the previous five financial years and the first three quarters of the current financial year which have been indicated as payable to the Treasury. Since the reinvigoration of Right to Buy in April 2012, the 29 London stock-holding authorities have retained approximately £406 million for the purposes of providing replacement social housing in their local areas.<\/p>

<\/p>

Overall, Right to Buy increases housing investment and housing construction. Since the Right to Buy was reinvigorated across England, £730 million in sales receipts are being re-invested in affordable house building; levering a further £1.7 billion of investment over the next 2 years. This means that in total, over £2.4 billion will be raised to invest in affordable house building as a result of Right to Buy.<\/p>

<\/p>

In England, council house building starts are now at a 23 year high and almost twice as many council homes have been built in the last 4 years than from 1997 to 2009. Previously, councils were not encouraged to build new homes from sales receipts and only 1 new council home was built for every 170 Right to Buy sales completed under the last Administration.<\/p>

The Environment Agency\u2019s Thames Estuary 2100 plan has 10 monitored indicators which ensure the plan is adaptable to change and remains fit for purpose throughout its 100 year life.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

One of the indicators refers to the number of times Thames Barrier closures exceed 50 in a year. If more than 50 closures a year were to become a regular occurrence this would impact the reliability of the Barrier.<\/p>

In response to increasing pressures, such as climate change, the Environment Agency produced the Thames Estuary 2100 Plan. This identifies options and recommendations for managing flood risk across the estuary up to the end of the century, and includes possible monitoring, maintenance, modifications and improvements to the Thames Barrier and associated flood defences. This could also include the construction of a new Thames Barrier at Long Reach, Dartford, by 2070.<\/p>

The National Offender Management Service takes the importation of all weapons into prisons extremely seriously. Prisons deploy a comprehensive range of robust searching and security measures to detect weapons and other items of contraband at the point of entry to the prison.<\/p>

<\/p>

Records of firearms seizures are held centrally, and I can advise that no firearms have been seized from people visiting prisoners since 2010.<\/p>

<\/p>

Specific records of other weapons seized from people visiting prisoners are not held centrally.

The number of escapes from custody has been falling since 1995 when central records began, despite an increasing prison population. Absconds have reached record lows under this Government, falling by more than 80 per cent in the last 10 years, but we have not been complacent. We have made major changes to tighten the system. Offenders who escape or abscond are an extremely small proportion of the almost 86,000 offenders in the prison system at the moment.<\/p>

<\/p>

To establish what offences were committed by escaped or absconded prisoners would require the examination of core records for each prisoner that had escaped or absconded since 2010. This could only be achieved at disproportionate cost.<\/p>

<\/p>

The table below shows the details of escapes occurring from prison escort vans between April 2010 and March 2014. The offence and sentence length is that recorded at the time of the escape. All prisoners who escaped from prison vans have subsequently been arrested and returned to custody. The table includes escorts conducted by contractors under the Prison Escort and Custody Services contract and HM Prison Service staff.<\/p>
