answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/10/2015 answer text <p>Chief Constable David Shaw’s Use of Force Data Review is expected to report to the Home Secretary later this year. The review will present options for collecting, collating and publishing data on how force including Taser is being used by the police, who it is being used on and what the outcomes are. The Government supports the need for transparent and accurate data on how the police are using force. As with sensitive powers like stop and search, the police use of force warrants proper accountability and transparency.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 20/10/2015 16:37:18 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they have any plans to ratify the Istanbul Convention now that the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Bill 2014 has received Royal Assent.
tabling member printed	The Lord Bishop of St Albans
uin	HL2559
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/11/2014 answer text <p>The Coalition Government signed the Istanbul Convention on 8 June 2012 signalling its strong commitment on tackling violence against women and girls. The UK already has some of the most robust protections in the world against violence towards women and we already comply with the majority of the articles to the convention. <br><br>One of the key components was the criminalisation of forced marriage which has now come into force following Royal Assent of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014. However government departments and the devolved administrations continue to rigorously examine whether we are doing everything necessary to be able to ratify the convention. In particular, this includes considering the extent to which we first need to take extra-territorial jurisdiction in respect of offences established in accordance with the <br>convention.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 18/11/2014 17:45:30 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
