answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/06/2014 answer text <p><strong>At the Budget it was announced that, from 1 July 2014, the limits for Junior ISAs and Child Trust Funds (CTFs) will rise from £3,720 to £4,000. </strong></p><p><strong>Following a public consultation, the Government has decided to allow the transfer of savings from CTFs to Junior ISAs. We are committed to ensuring that there is a clear and simple way to save for all children and believe that parents should be allowed the opportunity to transfer from a CTF to a Junior ISA if they consider this to be the most appropriate account for their child.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>The Government has clauses in the Deregulation Bill, currently making its way through Parliament, which will enable the transfers. We hope this option to transfer will be available by April 2015. </strong></p> answering member constituency South West Hertfordshire answering member printed Mr David Gauke question first answered 09/06/2014 14:01:01 answering member 1529 label Biography information for Mr David Gauke

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 11/06/2014 answer text <p> </p><p>In 2013 the UK National Referral Mechanism (NRM) received 1,746 referrals of <br>potential victims of trafficking. However, trafficking is a covert crime and <br>victims are often hidden, making it difficult to establish the true scale of <br>the issue.<br><br>The National Crime Agency's UK Human Trafficking Centre publishes an annual <br>assessment of the number of victims of human trafficking. The most recent <br>assessment was published in August 2013 and can be found on the NCA website <br>(www.nationalcrimeagency.gov.uk).<br><br>The Government is determined to lead the global fight against human trafficking <br>(including modern slavery), and has introduced the Modern Slavery Bill. The <br>Bill will give law enforcement the tools to stamp out modern slavery, and <br>enhance protection for victims. To complement the Bill, the Government is also <br>ramping up non-legislative action to tackle this abhorrent crime.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 11/06/2014 16:30:50 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley previous answer version 57 answering member constituency Old Bexley and Sidcup answering member printed James Brokenshire answering member 1530
