Research from 2013 showed that, whilst the overall environmental impact of sky lanterns was minor, they could pose a significant fire risk. Stakeholders have reported the risks have subsequently risen, and, as a result, we are commissioning new research to understand the risk they pose.

The Department is planning to conduct a further observational survey of hand-held mobile phone use later this year.<\/p>

<\/p>

There is evidence from the Department\u2019s own observational survey, from the perception of risk work carried out by THINK!, and from external self-reporting surveys that young males constitute the biggest risk in respect of hand-held mobile phone use. The Department has commissioned further research to understand what drives these attitudes and behaviours; the report will be published in due course.<\/p>

<\/p>

I understand the importance of conveying to drivers the message that they must not use a hand-held mobile phone while stationary in traffic and our recent consultation proposed a change to the Highway Code to make that point. THINK! will consider options for incorporating this message into future campaigns.<\/p>

As part of preparations for a potential No Deal Brexit in March, the Government procured additional freight capacity to support the continued flow of Category 1 goods. When Article 50 was extended, £51.4m was paid to terminate contracts.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Government ran a new procurement exercise to secure freight capacity as part of preparations for Brexit on 31 October, entering into contracts for the 6 months from this date. With the extension to Article 50, we have changed our requirements with operators to make sure that capacity remains available from 31 January if required. This scaling down of capacity will cost approximately £8m.<\/p>

DCLG publishes regular statistics on rough sleeping, statutory homelessness and homelessness prevention and relief in England. The autumn 2016 number of rough sleepers counted and estimated in a single night snapshot in England was 4,134. In England, 59,090 households were accepted as statutorily homeless and in priority need in 2016/17. 77,240 households were in temporary accommodation at the end of March 2017 in England. There were 214,476 successful cases of homelessness prevention or relief outside the statutory homelessness framework in 2016/17 in England.<\/p>

These are also published at a local authority level, including the ten Greater Manchester authorities. The latest statistics can be found (attached) at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/homelessness-statistics<\/a><\/p>

The Government will be implementing manifesto commitments to help those at risk of becoming homeless, already sleeping rough or with complex needs, to support them to lead more independent lives.<\/p>

NHS England collects the number of operations cancelled at the \u2018last minute\u2019 for non-clinical reasons on a quarterly basis.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The number of cancelled elective operations in the final quarter of 2013-14 was not the highest ever recorded. The highest number of cancelled elective operations was recorded in quarter 4 2000-01.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

Cancelled elective operations as a percentage of elective admissions are stable. In both 2009-10 and 2013-14 cancelled elective operations represented 0.9% of elective admissions, despite a 546,000 increase in the number of elective admissions in this period.<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

<\/p>

The National Health Service should do everything it can to reduce cancellations and keep them to an absolute minimum. Where this is unavoidable, patients should receive treatment as soon as possible. This is reinforced by a pledge in the NHS Constitution for all patients who have operations cancelled, on or after the day of admission (including the day of surgery), for non-clinical reasons to be offered another binding date within 28 days, or the patient\u2019s treatment to be funded at the time and hospital of the patient\u2019s choice.<\/p>

There are no reliable figures on the number of persons currently detained in Egypt without charge or trial as the Egyptian authorities do not publish this data. The 2013 US State Department Human Rights report suggests that there are as many as 2,000 pre-trial detainees. In August 2013 the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, my right hon. Friend the Member for Richmond (Yorks) (Mr Hague), called for the release of all political detainees unless there are criminal charges to be laid against them, and emphasised that it is vital that any charges are not politically motivated. In his statement on 28 April he urged the Egyptian authorities to ensure that human and legal rights are fully upheld in the country as a whole. On 5 June the 28 Member States of the EU issued a statement calling on the Egyptian authorities to ensure defendants' rights to a fair and timely trial based on clear charges and to respect due process.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3839", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Baroness Warsi"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Baroness Warsi"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2014-07-01", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2014-07-01T12:43:48.5215219Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "16"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Foreign and Commonwealth Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2014-06-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Egypt"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government what information they have about the number of persons detained in Egypt without charge or trial; and whether they will make representations for a review process leading to the release of those not charged with civil or criminal offences.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2018", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Hylton"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Hylton"} ], "uin" : "HL424"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 8, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
