answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/01/2018 answer text <p>The Prison Safety and Reform White paper set out a range of performance measures so that the performance of prisons is judged on the results they deliver rather than just compliance with processes. Access to Chaplaincy services is not currently included in these measures. Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service seek to ensure that prisoners have access to chaplaincy services in accordance with PSI 5/2016 (Faith and Pastoral Care for Prisoners). Overcrowding in and of itself would not restrict access to chaplaincy services.</p> answering member printed Lord Keen of Elie question first answered 04/01/2018 17:01:27 answering member 4538 label Biography information for Lord Keen of Elie

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Bates on 9 January (HL3493), how many of the 1,302 cases identified for advice or support in 2013 were about British girls sent abroad to marry in that year.
tabling member printed	Lord McConnell of Glenscorrodale
uin	HL4279
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/02/2015 answer text <p>The number of reported cases to the Forced Marriage Unit (FMU) each year does not reflect the full scale of the abuse, as many more cases go unreported. 82% of the reported number of 2013 cases involved female victims. The FMU operates across the whole of the UK, where support is provided to any individual of any nationality. It also operates overseas where consular assistance is provided to British nationals, including dual nationals.</p><p>The data held by the FMU cannot specifically be broken down to identify cases for advice or support relating to British girls sent abroad. To provide more detailed information on the figures for England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, would involve a disproportionate cost. We also have no plans to publish figures in this format in future years.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Bates grouped question UIN HL4280 HL4281 question first answered 04/02/2015 13:47:38 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
