Since 2012, over 1,300 people have been supported through the Channel programme, which is part of the Prevent Strategy. Channel exists to provide confidential and voluntary support to people who are vulnerable to being drawn into terrorism. Many types of support are available, addressing educational, vocational, mental health, and other vulnerabilities. Ideological mentoring is common<\/p>
In 2017/18 there were 7,318 individuals referred to Prevent. Of these, 6,356 (87%) were male, and 947 were female (13%). Of all those referred, 3,197 (44%) were referred for concerns related to Islamist extremism, and 1,312 (18%) were referred for concerns related to right wing extremism.<\/p>
We do not routinely collect data on the nationality of those referred to Prevent. A Channel panel will, on a monthly basis, monitor the progress of an individual in receipt of Channel support. When the panel decides that a person has no further terrorism-related concerns they will leave the Channel programme. Of those who were provided with support through Channel in 2017/18, 84% left the programme with no further terrorism-related concerns. Support to address particular non-radicalisation related concerns could continue in some cases and would be managed outside of the Channel programme<\/p>
People in receipt of support from the Channel programme but who drop out may be offered alternative forms of support by the local authority or other providers. In these circumstances, any risk of terrorism that they might present will be managed by the police.<\/p>"}

Stop and search is a vital policing tool when used correctly and officers have the Government's full support to use these powers in a way that is fair, lawful and effective.<\/p>
The Offensive Weapons Act 2019 created a new offence of possessing a corrosive substance in a public place. The Act also created a complementary stop and search power to ensure officers are able to enforce this new offence and tackle these devastating crimes effectively.<\/p>
The Act received Royal Assent on 16 May and we are working to the bring this new power into force by the Autumn.<\/p>
We are also supporting police with additional funding. On 13 March the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced a £100 million fund to tackle serious violence. £63.4 million of this funding has already been allocated to 18 police forces worst affected by serious violence to support surge operational activity, such as increased patrols.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1561", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Nick Hurd"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-06-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-06-27T15:56:06.493Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-06-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Crimes of Violence: Acids"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans he has to increase the rate of stop and search policing in response to the increase in acid attacks.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1447", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andrew Rosindell"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Romford"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Andrew Rosindell"} ], "uin" : "267224"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1133742", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1133742/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
