	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/03/2022 answer text <p>Police forces that reflect and understand the communities they serve are crucial to tackling crime and maintaining public trust and confidence in a modern diverse society. More than ever, diversity is an important part of operational effectiveness. This includes provision of appropriate training for all officers and staff and ensuring the very highest professional standards are maintained throughout their careers.</p><p>The College of Policing, who set and maintain training standards for policing, published the Code of Ethics in 2014, which includes equality and diversity among the standards of professional behaviour in the police. The Code is currently being refreshed.</p><p>The College’s foundation training for all those entering the service already includes substantial coverage of police ethics and self-understanding. The initial training undertaken by all officers also covers hate crimes, ethics and equalities, and policing without bias.</p><p>In addition, we have funded the College to develop a National Police Leadership Centre to create a strong professional framework and standards across policing at all levels. As part of this, the new curriculum for Sergeants includes a module on ‘Inclusive Leadership’, covering organisational and procedural justice, including historical context.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 24/03/2022 12:31:47 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse previous answer version 59841 answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/12/2022 answer text <p>Tackling domestic abuse is a priority for this Government. A key part of this is making sure victims and survivors get the support they need.</p><p>The Tackling Domestic Abuse Plan, which we published in March, invests over £230 million, including over £140 million specifically for supporting victims and survivors. The commitments in the Plan include doubling funding for the National Domestic Abuse Helpline.</p><p>The Plan also committed to establish trials of a ‘flexible fund’, which charities could use to provide extra money to victims and survivors in light of the increased cost of living.</p><p>More widely, the Government is providing direct Cost of Living Payments to more than 8 million UK households on means tested benefits. These payments will be tax-free, will not count towards the benefit cap, and will not have any impact on existing benefit awards. The Government also is protecting the most vulnerable in society, many of whom face the biggest challenge making their incomes stretch, by increasing benefits in line with inflation. This means that they will rise by September Consumer Prices Index (CPI) inflation – 10.1%.</p> answering member constituency Derbyshire Dales answering member printed Miss Sarah Dines question first answered 21/12/2022 17:19:26 answering member 4816 label Biography information for Miss Sarah Dines

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/02/2023 answer text <p>Tackling abuse is a key Government priority. There is ongoing work across government to tackle abuse of older people, including by the Department of Health and Social Care. The Home Office oversees specifically policy related to domestic abuse.</p><p> </p><p>Domestic abuse is deeply harmful, not only because of the profound effect it can have on victims, survivors and their loved ones, but also because of the harm it inflicts on wider society. This Government recognises that, although anyone can suffer from domestic abuse, for older victims, abuse may be more hidden and disguised or compounded by other age-related factors such as ill health.</p><p> </p><p>The Home Office has funded Hourglass, a specialist elder abuse charity, for a number of years to enhance their helpline, provide casework support, and train specialist Independent Domestic Violence Advisers. For financial years 2018/19 through to 2020/21 we provided Hourglass £50,000 per annum. An additional £106,000 was provided to further bolster their services as part of the response to the Covid-19 crisis, to ensure victims could continue to access support. In 2021-22, the Home Office provided Hourglass over £200,000 to support their work in enhancing their helpline, providing casework support, and training specialist IDVAs, with over 3000 victims being supported in 2021-22 alone. Again in 2022/23 we provided Hourglass £50,000.</p><p>In 2021/22, Hourglass supported over 3,000 cases.</p><p>In relation to future funding, the Domestic Abuse Plan commits to over £140 million for supporting victims of which £47 million will be ringfenced for community-based services to support victims and survivors of domestic abuse and sexual violence, including, but not limited to, older victims.</p> answering member constituency Derbyshire Dales answering member printed Miss Sarah Dines question first answered 09/02/2023 11:41:35 answering member 4816 label Biography information for Miss Sarah Dines
