http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/statistics-explained/index.php/Asylum_quarterly_report<\/a>.
The Commission has data up to, and including 2016. This shows the UK processed over 6,000 Dublin requests in 2016: over 4,200 outgoing requests to other Member States and almost 1,800 incoming requests. 2017 data is not yet available.
Under the Dublin III Regulation, Member States have two months from receiving a request from another participating Member State to accept or reject responsibility for processing the asylum claim.
Once a Dublin request has been accepted (or legal matters have been resolved), the Regulation provides that the sending Member State has six months to enact the transfer. The Home Office works closely with EU Member State partners to enact transfers as soon as possible and ahead of the six month timeframe.<\/p>"}

All international efforts to promote the right to freedom of religion or belief are welcome. \u200bHer Majesty's Government notes with interest the 'Hungary Helps Initiative' and Denmark's appointment of a Special Representative on Freedom of Religion or Belief (FoRB). All governments engaged in defending and promoting FoRB can learn from each other. To that end, Foreign and Commonwealth (FCO) officials recently met with Denmark's Special Representative for FoRB to discuss this important issue.<\/p>
The Government is constantly reviewing its own activities and looking for ways to strengthen our impact. Our approach is to work through bilateral and multilateral diplomacy, seeking to encourage states to uphold the principles enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, including those which defend the right to FoRB. I recently wrote to all Ambassadors and High Commissioners urging them to look for ways to promote and defend FoRB, as appropriate, in the countries to which they are accredited.<\/p>
The British Government also continues to support a number of projects which promote FoRB through the FCO's Magna Carta Fund for Human Rights and Democracy. Examples include a project to support a network of human rights defenders in South Asia. In October 2017, I convened the first in a series of roundtable meetings on FoRB. These meetings will bring together faith leaders and civil society to discuss current challenges to FoRB internationally, and how we can collaborate to strengthen our response to these.<\/p>"}

Coroners are judicial office holders and their independence is a fundamental principle in the constitutional separation of powers and the rule of law. It would be inappropriate for Ministers to comment on the reported actions of the Inner North London Senior Coroner.<\/p>

The Government set out its ambition for a reformed prison estate in the November 2016 Prison Safety and Reform White Paper. Our reforms will close ageing and ineffective prisons and replace them with buildings fit for today\u2019s demands.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government announced plans, subject to planning approvals, value for money and affordability, to build six category C modern prisons in the following locations:<\/p>
<\/p>
- HM Prison and Young Offender Instutition Glen Parva in Leicestershire;<\/li>
- HM Prison Wellingborough, in Northamptonshire;<\/li>
- on land adjacent to HM Prison Full Sutton in East Yorkshire;<\/li>
- Port Talbot in Neath;<\/li>
- HM Prison and Young Offender Institution Rochester in Kent; and<\/li>
- HM Prison and Young Offender Institution Hindley, in Greater Manchester;<\/li><\/ul>
<\/p>
Subsequent to that announcement on 19 July 2017, the Government announced that the closures of HM Prison and Young Offender Institutions Hindley and Rochester for redevelopment have been postponed. Cells at these sites will be kept in use for now, as part of forward-planning for the estate.<\/p>
<\/p>
The capacity of the sites will be determined before submitting outline planning applications. Outline planning permission was received last year for Wellingborough, Glen Parva and Full Sutton. We intend both Glen Parva and Wellingborough will have around 1,600 places and Full Sutton will have around 1,000 places.<\/p>
<\/p>
Work has begun on the construction of a new 207 place houseblock at HM Prison Stocken, in Rutland. This will be ready for use from December 2018.<\/p>
<\/p>
No decisions about future prison closures have been made other than those already announced.<\/p>"}
