This Government is committed to transforming the response to domestic abuse and on 8 March we launched a consultation seeking views on a range of options to ensure victims are afforded the greatest possible protection and perpetrators are brought to justice. The consultation outlined a range of legislative proposals for a landmark Domestic Abuse Bill, together with a package of non-legislative measures.<\/p>

As we develop the proposals following feedback from the consultation, we are in regular communication with other Government departments including the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, using forums such as the Inter-Ministerial Group on Violence against Women and Girls, in order to discuss how to transform the government\u2019s response to domestic abuse.<\/p>

In October 2016, the UK acted decisively and on an exceptional basis at the time of the Calais camp clearance to remove 769 vulnerable unaccompanied children from a dangerous situation where they were at risk of violence and abuse. Our action at that time resulted in 220 children being relocated to the UK under section 67 of the Immigration Act 2016, and the remaining 549 children being transferred to reunite with family members already in the UK.<\/p>

Following the clearance of the camp, the French authorities arranged for the children who had previously been there to be moved to specialist reception centres around France. Children who could not be transferred to the UK and who remained in France were transferred into the French care system.<\/p>

We are continuing to work closely with French authorities and non-governmental organisations in France to support the identification and transfer of eligible children to the UK under Dublin. We have allocated a £3.6 million Dublin development fund, as part of the Sandhurst Treaty signed between the UK and France in January 2018, to identify projects to support eligible claims through the asylum process and ensure those who are ineligible for transfer to the UK are informed of their options. The Treaty also includes a commitment to reduce timescales for decisions and transfers under Dublin. A UK asylum liaison officer has been deployed to France to support the process.<\/p>

Responsibility for unaccompanied children on French territory lies with the French authorities, however France is bound by many of the same international obligations as the UK.
