Everyone in this house owes a great debt to Nancy Astor.

There is persuasive evidence that many women, particularly on short custodial sentences, can be better supported in the community on robust and effective community sentences.<\/p> <\/p> The Strategy set out a new programme of work to improve outcomes for female offenders and shift our emphasis from custody to the community. This included a £5m investment in community provision for female offenders over 2018/19 and 2019/20. We awarded £3.3m to 12 organisations last November, and on 23 January we announced a further £1.6m, which will benefit 17 organisations and 83 female rape support centres.<\/p> <\/p> We consider that the availability of intensive residential support packages, both at the point of sentencing and on release, is one important element in achieving the changes we want to see. We are therefore committed to working with local and national partners to develop a \u2018residential women\u2019s centre\u2019 pilot in at least five sites across England and Wales.<\/p> <\/p> The Strategy is available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/female-offender-strategy<\/a>.<\/p>"}

It refers to the commitment to seek no net loss to biodiversity. Mitigation measures include the creation of habitat to maintain the populations of protected species. New areas of woodland, grassland, heathland and ponds will be created.<\/p> A route-wide monitoring strategy will be put in place. HS2 Ltd is responsible for maintaining and monitoring the new or managed habitat for a sufficient period to ensure that the nature conservation objectives are achieved. Indicative periods for the management and monitoring of habitats are set out in HS2 Information Paper E26<\/a>. These include plans to monitor replacement woodland for up to 50 years.<\/p> <\/p> A similar approach is being adopted for future phases of the scheme.<\/p>
