answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/11/2018 answer text <p>The Government is committed to supporting families. To achieve this, in 2014 we introduced the Family Test, which aims to ensure that impacts on family relationships and functioning are recognised early on during the process of policy development and help inform the policy decisions made by Ministers. The Ministry of Justice does not collect information on the number of Family Test assessments completed. There is no requirement for departments to publish the results of assessments made under the Family Test.</p> answering member printed Lord Keen of Elie question first answered 07/11/2018 12:39:31 answering member 4538 label Biography information for Lord Keen of Elie

In order to achieve this, in 2014 we introduced the Family Test, which aims to ensure that impacts on family relationships and functioning are recognised early on during the process of policy development and help inform the policy decisions made by Ministers.</p><p> </p><p>The majority of BEIS policy areas do not have a direct impact on the formation, make-up, or breakdown of families. However, where these impacts are relevant, the Family Test is applied to policy changes in a proportionate manner. Officials leading directly on the policy development are responsible for undertaking this analysis, and for advising Ministers on these impacts.</p><p> </p><p>When applicable, analysis on family impacts is included within impact assessments, which are publically available. This analysis is usually qualitative in nature, as it is difficult to make quantitative estimates on the impacts from policy changes. Following implementation of the policy, BEIS monitors and reviews its impacts in a proportionate manner.</p> answering member printed Lord Henley question first answered 08/11/2018 16:07:39 answering member 2616 label Biography information for Lord Henley
