	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/11/2018 answer text <p>Government Departments continue to engage with a wide range of businesses to understand their priorities and issues as we leave the European Union, both to inform our negotiating position, and our preparations in the unlikely event of there being no deal. NDAs are also a common component of contractual arrangements that are used to protect commercial considerations of the parties involved or to protect sensitives around the development of Government policy. It is entirely normal practice to use such agreements and they are therefore sometimes necessary for Government departments that are responsible for managing their preparations for leaving the EU.</p><p>For the Home Office, this is a complex cross cutting issue which has the potential to affect several Home Office business areas. Specific information relating to EU exit is not held centrally therefore we cannot give a definitive answer. However, to date the Home office has signed over a hundred NDA’s with ports to support EU exit preparations. Non-Disclosure Agreements with our key border delivery partners are crucial in supporting open exchanges of information and opinions about options and scenarios.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 27/11/2018 17:34:29 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/11/2018 answer text <p>The UK is a world leader in the fight to stamp out the brutal practice of forced marriage, with our joint Home Office and Foreign and Commonwealth Office Forced Marriage Unit (FMU) leading efforts to combat it both at home and abroad. We made forced marriage a criminal offence in 2014 to better protect victims and send a clear message that this abhorrent practice is totally unacceptable and will not be tolerated in the UK. To date, there have been four convictions under the offence.</p><p>Due to the small numbers of referrals, charges and convictions this information is not available by geographic location to prevent the risk of victims being identified. This is important as victims of Forced Marriage may have the protection of lifetime anonymity.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 23/11/2018 14:13:02 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins
