\u200bWe regularly raise these issues with the countries of the Sahel and in multilateral fora. This includes through the EU's "Article 8" political discussions with these countries, the Universal Periodic Review and the Human Rights Council \u2013 where most recently the UK called on the Government of Mali to denounce and tackle human rights abuses, including all forms of violence against women, girls and members of other vulnerable groups.<\/p>
We also press partners on the importance of compliance with human rights and international humanitarian law in security operations and provide funding for the establishment of a compliance framework for the G5 Sahel Joint Force.<\/p>
To help improve protection of civilians in the Sahel in the context of growing instability, the UK is also providing funding to the International Committee of the Red Cross to ensure humanitarian protection and assistance for victims of armed conflict, and to promote respect for international humanitarian law in the region<\/p>

The Government\u2019s policy is to agree a deal with the EU in which case the UK will enter an implementation period. During this time, EU law will continue to apply whilst the Future Economic Partnership is negotiated. Longer term policy on plant protection will depend on the outcome of those negotiations.<\/p>
<\/p>
At the point of departure from the EU in a no deal scenario, the UK will retain current EU maximum residue levels (MRLs) for pesticides in UK law, along with the existing regulatory processes for determining whether any new UK MRLs should be set.<\/p>
<\/p>
Oxytetracycline and streptomycin are not approved as active substances for use in the EU and no food, irrespective of its origin, is permitted to have residues at levels consistent with use of the substances. This applies to all food placed on the market, including imports. This will remain the position under UK law unless revised UK MRLs are requested and found to meet all the legal requirements. These requirements include demonstrating, on the basis of scientific data, that the proposed MRL does not put consumers\u2019 health at risk.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1562", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Robert Goodwill"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Scarborough and Whitby"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Robert Goodwill"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-28", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-28T14:50:09.11Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "13"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-03-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Fruit: Imports"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether it will remain his Department's policy to retain the ban on the importation of citrus products that have been treated with (a) oxytetracycline and (b) streptomycin after the UK leaves the EU.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4006", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr Matthew Offord"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hendon"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Dr Matthew Offord"} ], "uin" : "234720"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1088408", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Treasury"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1088408/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The government has committed to increase the recycling of packaging waste and the recyclability of packaging. The recent Resources and Waste Strategy announced that the government would improve recycling rates by ensuring a consistent set of dry recyclable materials is collected from all households and businesses and that every householder and appropriate businesses have a weekly separate food waste collection. For packaging waste, we will invoke the \u2018polluter pays\u2019 principle and extended producer responsibility for packaging, ensuring that producers pay the full net costs of managing packaging waste at end of life. Government will also ensure that local authorities are resourced to meet the new net costs arising from policies within the Resources and Waste Strategy.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4320", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Robert Jenrick"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newark"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Robert Jenrick"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2019-03-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2019-03-20T17:04:49.457Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2019-03-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Recycling: Finance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much money has been made available to increase recycling from (a) residential waste and (b) trade waste.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4006", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dr Matthew Offord"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hendon"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Dr Matthew Offord"} ], "uin" : "231994"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1087103", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1087103/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The control and enforcement of fisheries legislation in UK waters is a devolved matter and each Devolved Administration is responsible for control and enforcement in their waters.<\/p>
<\/p>
Legislation (Council Regulation (EC) No. 1224/2009) is in place that requires masters of a fishing vessel using passive gear or beam trawls to mark their fishing gear. Masters must mark certain nets, lines, pots and beam trawls, with the port letter and number of their vessel. Marker buoys must also be attached. This will make sure all vessels are able to clearly identify fishing gear and prevent instances of gear conflict. The Marine Management Organisation has been involved with some joint working (with Maritime and Coastguard Agency, National Federation of Fishermen\u2019s Organisation and Royal Yachting Association) on reviewing marking of fishing gear for safety at sea purposes.<\/p>
<\/p>
For all types of fishing gear, masters of a fishing vessel must attempt to retrieve any lost gear. If they are unable to do so they must notify the UK fisheries authorities.<\/p>
