answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/07/2024 answer text <p>The specific data requested on how family stability in the UK compares with other countries in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is not available across the OECD. However, the OECD publication ‘Society at a Glance’ (2019) shows that the UK has a lower percentage of children (0-17) living with two parents (76.6% vs OECD average of 81.7%) and a higher rate living with a single parent (23.2% vs the OECD average of 17.2%). More information is in the attached document, ‘Society at a Glance (2019)’ and can also be found here: <a href="https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/social-issues-migration-health/most-children-live-in-households-with-two-parents_29e31016-en" target="_blank">https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/social-issues-migration-health/most-children-live-in-households-with-two-parents_29e31016-en</a>.</p><p> </p><p>The specific data requested on the percentage of all children in the United Kingdom who do not live with both of their birth parents is not available. However, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) publishes statistics on the number of children in separated families in England, Scotland and Wales. The latest data shows that 3.8 million children were living in separated families. More information can be accessed at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/separated-families-statistics-april-2014-to-march-2023/separated-families-statistics-april-2014-to-march-2023" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/separated-families-statistics-april-2014-to-march-2023/separated-families-statistics-april-2014-to-march-2023</a>.</p><p> </p><p>The DWP’s latest low-income statistics show that 30% of children in the UK in 2022/23 lived in a low-income household after housing costs (defined as living in a household below 60% of median income, adjusted for household composition). This was 4.3 million children altogether. However, the DWP does not have data available on whether or not these children are living with both birth parents.

Figure 3 (p.20) shows that a significantly higher proportion of mothers from a lower socio-economic background are a lone parent (29% for routine and 30% for semi-routine occupations), compared to mothers from a higher socio-economic background (14% for lower-managerial and professional and 10% for higher managerial and professional). More information is in the attached document ‘Family and its protective effect’ and can also be found here: <a href="https://assets.childrenscommissioner.gov.uk/wpuploads/2022/12/cc-family-and-its-protective-effect-part-1-of-the-independent-family-review-.pdf" target="_blank">https://assets.childrenscommissioner.gov.uk/wpuploads/2022/12/cc-family-and-its-protective-effect-part-1-of-the-independent-family-review-.pdf</a>.</p><p> </p><p>The DWP publishes statistics on the percentage of children in couple-parent families with at least one parent reporting relationship distress. The latest data for 2019/20 shows that 12% of children in couple-parent families were living with at least one parent reporting relationship distress, although they do not have data available specifically on whether these children are living with both birth parents.

uin	HL36
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/10/2019 answer text <p>Egyptians have repeatedly demonstrated their desire for a secure, prosperous, and democratic country since the revolution of 2011. In that context, we look forward to protection of Egyptians' constitutional rights, freedom of expression and more space for Non-Governmental Organisations and civil society. We believe that these rights and freedoms are essential for Egypt’s long-term stability. We have raised specific concerns with the Egyptian authorities about the large number of arrests that followed the demonstrations in Egypt on 20 September.</p><p>We are also closely monitoring the situation in Iraq. The UK continues to support the Iraqi government to deliver on the legitimate demands of the protestors for jobs, services and tackling corruption. We have made clear our concerns over the use of force. Foreign and Commonwealth Office Middle East Minister, Andrew Murrison, released a statement on 3 October emphasising the right to peaceful protest. The Foreign Secretary spoke to Prime Minister Abdul Mehdi on 9 October to express UK concerns about the security response and push for the Government to take concrete action to respond to protesters’ concerns. Lord Ahmad also spoke to Foreign Minister Al-Hakim on 10 October to underline these points.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 28/10/2019 12:39:39 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/06/2015 answer text <p>Each application is examined in the context of relevant designated National Policy Statements. <br> <br> For the Thames Tideway Tunnel application the relevant national policy is contained in the Waste Water National Policy Statement (paragraph 2.6.34), which states: <br> <br> <em>&quot;The examining authority and the decision maker should undertake any assessment of an application for the development of the Thames Tunnel on the basis that the national need for this infrastructure has been demonstrated&quot;.</em></p><p><em><br> &quot;It would be for Thames Water to justify in its application the specific design and route of the project that it is proposing, including any other options it has considered and ruled out.&quot;</em></p><p>The Examining Authority (Panel) appointed to examine the Thames Tideway Tunnel did ask written questions and hold hearings about alternatives to the applicant’s above ground site selection process and tunnel drive / construction strategy, but as directed by the National Policy Statements, the Panel did not consider alternatives to a tunnel.</p><p>In the case of the Swansea Tidal Lagoon application the Secretary of State is due to issue his decision on 10 June 2015. It would not be appropriate to comment in any detail on the examination of this application in advance of the Secretary of State’s decision. However, suffice to say that there are no designated National Policy Statements for tidal range power generating schemes.</p> answering member printed Baroness Williams of Trafford question first answered 02/06/2015 14:54:10 answering member 4311 label Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/06/2014 answer text <p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>A football banning order is a preventative measure which is not issued as part of a sentence, or solely on the basis of an individual's conviction offence. For the purpose of deciding whether to make a banning order, a court may consider a range of prosecution evidence in support of a banning order application. <br><br>The Football Banning Orders Authority holds a range of data on extant football banning orders, including in some cases the relevant offences which initiated a banning order application. However, this is secondary to details of the banning order itself, and it is not possible in all cases to identify which banned individuals have been convicted of a racially or religiously aggravated public order offence. To do so would require a manual exercise to review individual files which would incur a disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Taylor of Holbeach question first answered 12/06/2014 13:51:18 answering member 3787 label Biography information for Lord Taylor of Holbeach
