answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>I raised demolitions with the Israeli Ambassador to the UK on 11 October; in particular urging Israel to reconsider plans to demolish the village of Khan al-Ahmar. Our Ambassador to Israel most recently raised this issue with the Israeli Attorney General on 3 November. We remain gravely concerned by these proposals and will continue to raise our concerns with the Israeli authorities. We also issued a statement on 10 September along with France, Germany, Spain and Italy reiterating our call to the Israeli Government not to go ahead with its plan to demolish the village – including its school – and displace its residents. On 31 July, the Foreign Secretary wrote to Prime Minister Netanyahu alongside the French, German Italian and Spanish Foreign Ministers to demonstrate the international community’s support for the village and urge the Israeli Government to reconsider their decision. We are aware that Israel has postponed the demolition of Khan al-Ahmar, in order to exhaust negotiations for negotiations for evacuation by agreement. We continue to urge the authorities not to go ahead with their plan to demolish the village.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 20/11/2018 16:02:33 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/03/2019 answer text <p>There is no legal framework for the provision of drug consumption rooms in the UK and we have no plans to introduce them. For drug consumption rooms to operate it means allowing dealers to sell the most harmful drugs to users in our neighbourhoods. We are not prepared to sanction or condone activity that promotes the illcit drugs trade and the harms that illicit trade causes to individuals and communities.</p><p>A range of offences are likely to be committed in the operation of drug consumption rooms. It is for local police forces to enforce the law in such circumstances and, as with other offences of this type, we would expect them to do so</p><p>The UK's approach on drugs remains clear - we must prevent drug use in our communities and support people dependent on drugs through treatment and recovery.</p> answering member constituency Louth and Horncastle answering member printed Victoria Atkins question first answered 07/03/2019 18:22:17 answering member 4399 label Biography information for Victoria Atkins

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2018 answer text <p>Guidance on when and how Immigration Enforcement officers may arrest suspected illegal migrants can be found at:<a href="https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/537682/Arrest-and-restraint-v1.pdf" target="_blank"> https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/537682/Arrest-and-restraint-v1.pdf</a></p><p>All immigration enforcement visits and operations which may involve arrest, require authorisation. Operations in public places are subject to a higher level of authorisation than other types of enforcement visit or operation and require the completion of a comprehensive risk and intelligence assessment. The nature of immigration enforcement activity means that there may be unplanned encounters as part of a planned operation. In such situations, officers will undertake a dynamic risk assessment and any action will be taken within the parameters of the guidance and the powers available to the officer.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 20/11/2018 17:02:42 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
