for the number of families claiming tax credits where, if claiming as a couple, at least one of the family members was recorded as being a non-UK national when they registered for a National Insurance number (NINO).<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

These awards will include people who were recorded as being a non-UK national when they first registered for a NINO but now have UK nationality. The information cannot therefore be used to reliably determine the number of non-UK nationals in receipt of tax credits and was not intended to be used for that purpose.<\/p>

The last Administration failed to meet its Decent Homes target. It pledged in 2000 that: \u201cWe... are committed to ensuring that all social housing is of a decent standard within 10 years\u201d (DETR, Quality and Choice: A Decent Home for All: The Housing Green Paper<\/em>, April 2000, p.11). But 16 per cent of local authority homes were not decent by 2010.<\/p>

That last Government also cut the Decent Homes programme by £150 million in July 2009, cannibalising the housing programme to pay for other policies. I also observe the last Prime Minister planned to cut back housing investment, remarking before the general election: \u201cHousing is essentially a private sector activity. Let's be honest about this... I don't see a need for us to continue with such a big renovation programme\u201d (BBC Newsnight<\/em>, 30 April 2010).<\/p>

However, the Coalition Government is investing £2.3 billion from 2011 to 2016 to improve the quality of existing social housing through the Decent Homes programme and large-scale voluntary transfer gap funding The funding is for clearing the backlog, and therefore is less than under the last Administration \u2013 as by intention, there should be an increasingly smaller number of homes to pay to refurbish.<\/p>

NB. The figure for 14-15 contains £15 million funding for South Tyneside which was brought forward from the 2015-16 allocation.<\/p>

The number of non-decent local authority dwellings across England has fallen from 292,000 in 1 April 2010 to 146,000 in April 2014, with a forecast of a further fall to 113,000 by April 2015. This shows clear progress in refurbishing these homes.<\/p>

We are strongly opposed to any attempts to change the facts on the ground in the West Bank by increasing the number of settlers living there. Such acts raise tensions and undermine prospects for peace. During my visit to Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories between 5-8 October, I discussed my strong concerns about the issue of settlements and land expropriation with the Israeli Justice Minister on 6 October.

In collaboration with the Ministry of Defence and Department for International Development, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office carries out regular assessments of United Nations peacekeeping missions. These assessments enable us to make recommendations for improvements and influences our negotiating position in the Security Council when drafting or renewing peacekeeping mandates. Nine out of the current sixteen United Nations peacekeeping missions are in Africa. All the missions in Africa face distinctive challenges as a result of the changing nature of the conflicts they are facing, the environment in which they operate or the capacity and capability of their personnel. Peacekeepers are likely to face violence, insurgency, terrorism and the absence of credible state authority. We welcome the announcement in June, by the United Nations Secretary General, of a review of United Nations peacekeeping.

Operation NOTARISE is an ongoing NCA-led, UK-wide operation which is identifying and taking law enforcement action against individuals viewing
indecent images of children. Activity in Operation NOTARISE was prioritised according to how much risk the individuals presented, including checking the appropriate databases.

Those with access to children have been given the highest priority. As of 23 October, 704 people have been arrested, 133 children protected and
324 children safeguarded. It would not be appropriate to share any furtherdetails of operational procedures.<\/p>

This is consistent with the position of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, whose advice for British nationals is that travel for essential reasons should continue. Nationals from Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone whose flights have been cancelled but whose visas are expiring or expired are therefore expected to re-arrange their flights and leave the UK at the earliest opportunity.
