HM Treasury has implemented European Union sanctions against individuals identified as responsible for the misappropriation of Ukrainian state funds.<\/p>
The result of these sanctions is that any assets in the UK, which are owned, held or controlled by any of the 18 listed individuals identified as responsible for the misappropriation of state funds are now frozen. We will be working to ensure that these measures are robustly implemented, including by looking to uncover assets which may be hidden behind complex company structures.<\/p>
A multi-agency team comprised of the National Crime Agency, the Metropolitan Police Service and the Crown Prosecution Service has visited the Ukraine to offer technical assistance and support to the Ukrainian authorities in their efforts to identify and recover embezzled state funds. All appropriate criminal justice and administrative routes to support the Ukrainian authorities are being pursued.<\/p>

The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) conducted an investigation into the incident at the Downing Street gates on 19 September 2012 involving Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell MP and a police officer. This was supervised by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC). The MPS and the IPCC are operationally independent and Her Majesty's Government has no role in deciding whether to carry out such an investigation.
As a result of the investigation, two police officers involved in the incident have been dismissed for gross misconduct and decisions in relation to another three officers are awaited. The IPCC has requested that the MPS publish its report once the misconduct proceedings have been concluded. It will be for the MPS to decide whether or not to publish the report.<\/p>

It is important that the police have the ability to conduct a thorough search of any suspect (irrespective of age) whilst in police custody, not only to investigate crimes of which they are suspected, but also for their own safety whilst in custody. The use of these powers is an operational matter for the Chief Constable of each police force in England and Wales. However, their use must be in accordance with the safeguards set out in the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 Code of Practice C.
The Government takes the welfare of children very seriously. It is for this reason that the Home Secretary has asked Her Majesty's Inspector of Constabulary to include the use of the strip search procedure on children as part of the thematic inspection into the treatment of vulnerable people in police custody, which was commissioned in January.<\/p>

The Home Office and its agencies use a range of in-house tools and
methodologies to evaluate customer and partner feedback on specific products
and services. As these are related to small scale specific projects, the
results are not reported systematically to the Home Office Board.<\/p>
<\/p>
Her Majesty's Passport Office has conducted 3 waves of passport customer
satisfaction surveys in the last 12 months. Customer satisfaction is one of the
key performance indicators for the agency, and the results are reported to the
agency management board and to the Home Office as part of regular performance
reports.<\/p>
<\/p>
UK Visas and Immigration is in the process of developing a wide-ranging and
regular customer satisfaction survey. This has been sponsored at UKVI's
Customer Board.<\/p>

The information requested on entry clearance applications for adult dependent
relative settlement visas is not available and could only be obtained at
disproportionate cost by the examination of a significant number of individual
case records.
The Home Office publishes quarterly statistics on entry clearance visa
applications and resolutions (issued, refused, withdrawn and lapsed) by
category in table be_01_q (Before Entry tables volume 2) within the
\u2018Immigration Statistics' release. A copy of the latest release, \u2018Immigration
Statistics September \u2013 December 2013' is available from the Library of the
House and from:
https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/home-office/series/immigration-stati
stics-quarterly-release.
Within the table be_01_q , data relating to adult dependent relatives of a
British Citizen in the UK or a settled person in the UK are included in the
category \u2018Family: Other (for immediate settlement)' but cannot be identified
separately.
The Home Office is reviewing the collection of data relating to adult dependent
relative settlement visas. Data are being developed and, subject to resolving
any data quality/recording issues, it is planned to begin publishing data
specifically relating to adult dependent relative settlement visas later this
year.
A manual review of the available management information to identify adult
dependent relative applications granted in the period from 1 November 2012 to
30 September 2013 indicates that 34 settlement visas were issued in that period
to an adult dependent relative under Appendix FM to the Immigration Rules. This
information is provisional and subject to change. Corresponding information on
applications is not available.<\/p>
