answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/10/2017 answer text <p>​As part of our efforts to bring Daesh to justice, we are working closely with international partners, including the UN, to support the collection and preservation of evidence of Daesh crimes. On 21 September 2017, the United Nations Security Council voted unanimously to adopt UK-drafted Resolution 2379, which requests the UN Secretary General to establish an Investigative Team to collect, preserve and store evidence of Daesh crimes. The team will be led by a Special Adviser with a mandate to promote efforts to bring Daesh to justice across the globe. The UK has pledged £1 million to support this team. We have also provided over £8 million since 2012 in support of NGOs gathering evidence and assisting victims in Syria.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 31/10/2017 17:02:16 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon

question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government how many children suffered injuries during the use of restraint in each custodial institution in each of the last five years.
tabling member printed	Lord Bradley
uin	HL2170
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/11/2017 answer text <p>The safety and welfare of young people held in custody is our highest priority. Restraint is only ever used as a last resort, where there is a risk of harm, and no other form of intervention is possible or appropriate. Every incident of restraint is reviewed by the establishment, this includes looking at whether any lessons can be learned for the future.</p><p> </p><p>Minimising and Managing Physical Restraint (MMPR) has been specifically developed for use by staff working with young people in custody. MMPR provides a greater emphasis on managing challenging behaviour without resorting to restraint and also stresses the importance of accurate reporting to enable the ongoing analysis of its effectiveness. It also includes restraint techniques which have, for the first time, been assessed by an independent panel of medical and behaviour management experts, the Restraint Advisory Board.</p><p> </p><p>MMPR has been rolled out in all the Secure Training Centres and under 18 Young Offender Institutions. There are no plans to implement this method of restraint in Secure Children’s Homes who have their own restraint procedures.</p><p> </p><p>We do not collect data on the number of children injured during restraint but data is available on injuries sustained as a result of a Restrictive Physical intervention (RPI), this is provided in the table below for children and young people in Secure Training Centres, Secure Children’s Homes and under 18 Young Offender Institutions in the last five years. RPI is defined as ‘’any occasion when force is used with the intention of overpowering or to overpower a young person’’. Over power is defined as ‘’restricting movement or mobility”.</p><p>
