In advance of national roll out, the Government introduced Independent Child Trafficking Advocates in three early adopter sites (Greater Manchester, Hampshire and nationally in Wales). The service will run in these sites from January 2017 until January 2019. Eight Independent Child Trafficking Advocates have been recruited across the three Early Adopter Sites \u2013 three in Wales; two in Greater Manchester; and three in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. From the 30 January 2017 until the end of January 2018, 215 children have been allocated an Independent Child Trafficking Advocate.<\/p>
<\/p>
An Independent Expert Advisory Panel will assess the effectiveness of the model in the early adopter sites. The result of the assessment will inform any necessary improvements to the service before it is rolled out nationally so that this incredibly vulnerable group of children are given the best possible support.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4311", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Williams of Trafford"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Williams of Trafford"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "HL6623"} , {"_value" : "HL6625"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-11T15:48:23.493Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Home Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-03-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Human Trafficking: Children"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what is the timetable for the roll-out of Independent Child Trafficking Advocates across England and Wales.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4197", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Doocey"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Baroness Doocey"} ], "uin" : "HL6624"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/717815", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/717815/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPRs) prohibit traders, including builders, from engaging in unfair commercial practices against consumers. The regulations apply across all business sectors and set out a framework for how businesses must deal with consumers. Enforcement of the CPRs is by local authority trading standards services.<\/p>
The Government amended the CPRs in 2014 to give consumers a new private right, making it simpler to bring their own civil actions for certain breaches. The Government also enhanced consumer protection through the Consumer Rights Act 2015, which clarifies consumer rights and remedies when contracting with traders for the provision of services. Traders are required to carry out a service with reasonable care and skill, within a reasonable time and at a reasonable cost where the price has not been agreed upfront. Where a service is not carried out in compliance with these requirements, the consumer is entitled to ask for a repeat performance of the service, or if appropriate, get a price reduction up to the full amount paid.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/127", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Prior of Brampton"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord Prior of Brampton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-04-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-04-19T14:49:50.657Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "201"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-04-04", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Construction: Fraud"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty\u2019s Government what assessment they have made of the effectiveness of legislation in protecting consumers from fraudulent activity by builders.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4153", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Kennedy of Southwark"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Kennedy of Southwark"} ], "uin" : "HL6624"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/456396", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business, Innovation and Skills"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/456396/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Information on the resident population of the UK by nationality and country of birth is published by Office for National Statistics at:
http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/taxonomy/index.html?nscl=International+Migration
Information on the total number of British citizens who have obtained their nationality by naturalisation or by registration is not available.
Data is published on the annual number of grants of British citizenship based on naturalisation and registration made in each year from 1962 to 2013 in table cz 03 of Immigration Statistics, available in the library of the House and at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/immigration-statistics-quarterly-release<\/a>
The latest edition of table cz 03 is available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/283703/citizenship-q4-2013-tabs.ods<\/a>
From 1962 to 2013 there were 2.9 million grants of British citizenship based on naturalisation and 0.9 million grants based on registration.
