The Serious Fraud Office continues actively to evaluate material referred to it by the Department for International Development alleging that UK aid may have been channelled to companies linked to James Ibori.<\/p>

As part of that review it is examining whether there is any indication of an offence falling within the criminal jurisdiction of England and Wales as opposed to criminal jurisdictions overseas. No formal decision has yet been made in relation to this matter and no investigation has been opened.<\/p>

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has a comprehensive cost reduction strategy to 2015-16 that is fully aligned to, and supports, CPS priorities and objectives. The strategy will ensure that the department meets the SR2013 savings targets.<\/p>

In their annual report for 2013-14 the Inspectorate acknowledged that CPS had improved its performance on serious and complex cases and also highlighted CPS success in hate crime cases and those involving violence against women and girls. The report was largely based on cases completed more than a year ago and more recent data shows performance improvements across the board since then. For example, magistrates' courts are seeing more guilty pleas and fewer cases dropped while the Crown Courts are showing increasing conviction rates \u2013 now at 81% across England and Wales. The challenges mentioned in the report are being addressed but they should be seen in the context of an improving prosecution service across the country.<\/p>

The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does not maintain a central record of compliance with disclosure requirements pertaining to the service of unused material. To obtain details of the number of cases where disclosure was made on time, late or not complied with, would require a manual search of records which would incur a disproportionate cost.<\/p>

The CPS is committed to the proper application of the disclosure provisions in the Criminal Procedure and Investigations Act 1996 and is already engaged in a range of activities that will improve performance in this area:<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

· A disclosure assurance regime is in place for Crown Court disclosure;<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

· The CPS contributed to the Kinch / Riddle review into disclosure in the magistrates\u2019 courts and is implementing the recommendations as part of the cross-CJS efforts to transform summary justice. This will mean more targeted and effective disclosure at first hearing in magistrates\u2019 courts; and<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

· CPS has addressed the recommendations of the Gross reviews and the HMCPSI review of disclosure in R v Mouncher to further improve performance.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The CPS continues to look at how compliance with the disclosure regime can be improved and will actively consider further initiatives as necessary.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4106", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Robert Buckland"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "South Swindon"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Mr Robert Buckland"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-09-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "previousAnswerVersion" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/76994/answer/previousversion/10484", "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1560", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Jeremy Wright"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Kenilworth and Southam"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jeremy Wright"} } , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-09-01T15:08:08.4920855Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "88"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Attorney General"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Attorney General"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-07-10", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Crown Prosecution Service"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Attorney General, what steps he plans to take in response to the finding of HM Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) Inspector in his Annual Report 2013-14, page 12, that there was a considerable decline in performance of the CPS in that year in relation to how it handled its disclosure obligations.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1536", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Emily Thornberry"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Islington South and Finsbury"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Emily Thornberry"} ], "uin" : "205209"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/76998", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Home Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/76998/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Combating cyber crime is a core part of the National Cyber Security Strategy,
which is underpinned by the National Cyber Security Programme (NCSP) and £860
million of investment over five years. The Government has so far committed £70
million of NCSP funding to build law enforcement capabilities to tackle cyber
crime. This includes the establishment of the National Cyber Crime Unit in the
National Crime Agency (NCA), and cyber teams within each of the Regional
Organised Crime Units across England and Wales. We are also developing the
capability and awareness of local police forces. The NCA has led efforts to
arrest and disrupt cyber criminals, including warning individuals who may have
access to malicious software that they are known to the agency and that any
movement into criminality will result in action. NCSP also funds the Action
Fraud, the national reporting service for fraud and financially motivated cyber
crime, and the National Fraud Intellligence Bureau. Both of these are run by
the City of London Police, the country\u2019s national lead force for fraud
investigations. My Rt. Hon. Friend, the Home Secretary, visited the City of
London Police earlier this month with the Member for Hove and Portslade in
order to see the good work that the force is doing.

In addition, the Government has introduced a new offence as part of the Serious
Crime Bill to capture cyber attacks which cause, or create a significant risk
of, serious damage. This will ensure that serious cyber attacks carry
sentences that reflect the impact they can have. Where cyber attacks result in
loss of life or serious damage to national security, the maximum sentence will
be life imprisonment. Where an attack results in serious economic or
environmental damage, the maximum sentence will be 14 years\u2019 imprisonment.

Furthermore, the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills has delivered a
range of measures to help protect businesses against cyber crime, including
producing best practice guidance, providing innovation vouchers to help
businesses boost their cyber defences, and delivering a campaign of
awareness-raising and behaviour change activities.<\/p>

There is a range of support available under the four Disabled Students' Allowances (DSAs) (specialist equipment, non-medical help, travel, general). It is expected that students will in future receive a different balance of support between HEI reasonable adjustments and funding via DSAs. For example, some may receive all of their non-medical help support via their HEI rather than via DSAs, but still receive some DSA-funded support towards specialist equipment or travel costs.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Data on all of the different types of support provided to individual students under DSAs are not readily available under current record keeping arrangements. The Equality Analysis will contain an estimate of the number of students who would not be eligible for any support under DSAs following any changes. I will have due regard to this Analysis before regulations are laid before the House.<\/p>

There is a range of support available under the four Disabled Students' Allowances (DSAs) (specialist equipment, non-medical help, travel, general). It is expected that students will in future receive a different balance of support between HEI reasonable adjustments and funding via DSAs. For example, some may receive all of their non-medical help support via their HEI rather than via DSAs, but still receive some DSA-funded support towards specialist equipment or travel costs.<\/p>
