To ask the Attorney General, what is the percentage office workplace attendance requirement in each office of the Attorney General’s Office and each of its superintended departments offices, broken down by location; and whether attendance statistics are collated for each of those individual offices.
To ask the Attorney General, what is the percentage office workplace attendance requirement in each office of the Attorney General’s Office and each of its superintended departments offices, broken down by location; and whether attendance statistics are collated for each of those individual offices.
The Attorney General’s Office (AGO) requires staff to attend the workplace for a minimum of 60% of their contracted working time, in line with the Civil Service office attendance expectation. The AGO operates from a single office location in London. Attendance data is collated at a departmental level.
As the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) is a geographically dispersed organisation with staff working across offices, courts, police stations and other government departments' buildings, local leadership provide assurance of compliance with CPS’s hybrid working policy and conduct local monitoring, but attendance statistics are not specifically collated at a national level.
The Government Legal Department (GLD), irrespective of site, has a 60% attendance expectation, but we do not currently collect attendance statistics for each of our individual sites.
The Serious Fraud Office (SFO) requires 40% workplace attendance, which is an exception to the Cabinet Office guidance for 60% occupancy. This is due to the SFO having reduced its space at its current office (Canada House) based on 40% attendance and secured space in its new office (Cabot Square, Canary Wharf) based on the same. The SFO operates from a single office site, currently at Canada House and is set to move to Cabot Square before the end of the financial year. However, employees also work from other locations, including court or across the country when conducting executive action. Attendance is currently managed locally by line managers and statistics are not collated automatically.
For HM Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate (HMCPSI), the nature of the work is such that inspectors are frequently “on-site” for inspection work in the offices of those they inspect. HMCPSI staff meet at both the London and York offices regularly for inspection and other meetings as per their inspection methodology as business need dictates. All staff are required to attend a mandated office day once a month as well as all staff days and all-inspector days, which are mandated, in addition to the above. Central attendance statistics are not collated for either office by HMCPSI as they share space in both locations with other departments.
If the hon. Member will forgive me, I have been told to be brief.
I am in favour of our being assisted to die as painlessly as possible, and every palliative care nurse and doctor I have ever talked to has made it clear that in the overwhelming majority of cases,...

I certainly do, and I expect that those sort of things were on the mind of the Prime Minister when he made his remarks recently.

I will not, because of time. I would get the evils from Madam Deputy Speaker.
One in 20 deaths in Canada is assisted. If that were translated to this country, it would mean a huge extra cost, and the money would have to be found from other frontline services. Which ones?...

Absolutely, and I thank my hon. Friend for her contribution and her considerable experience in this area.

I am sure that the hon. Lady is aware that the law in Canada was brought in after a Supreme Court judgment, whereas our Supreme Court and the European Court of Human Rights have repeatedly refused to rule on this, saying quite rightly that it is a matter for Parliament....

We talk a lot about Canada, but the Netherlands is practically next door to my constituency and has a democracy very similar to ours. People in their 20s have been allowed to take this path there, which is absolutely shocking. Mental ill health, and even solvable temporary social problems, have...

The bill is a government bill that would make a range of changes to the legal framework concerning elections, including extending the franchise for UK parliamentary elections and other reserved elections to 16- and 17-year-olds. The bill was amended during both its committee and report stages in the House of Commons, with many of the government’s later amendments implementing recommendations from the Rycroft review on countering foreign financial influence and interference in UK politics.

The UK and Canada share a common objective of strengthening Allied defence industrial capacity through closer international cooperation. The Multilateral Defence Mechanism (MDM) and Canada's proposed Defence, Security and Resilience Bank (DSRB) are intended to address related challenges within the defence industrial ecosystem.
Following the joint-PM statement at the NATO Ankara summit in July, we committed to working closely with our Canadian allies on how the MDM and DSRB can work together, and we continue to do this.

That this House welcomes the development of the Defence, Security and Resilience Bank (DSRB) as a multilateral initiative to increase investment in defence, security and industrial resilience among allied nations; recognises the urgent need to expand defence industrial capacity in the UK and across NATO in response to a more dangerous international security environment; notes the potential for the Bank to mobilise private capital, improve access to finance for defence manufacturers and SMEs, and support long-term investment in defence supply chains; further welcomes the Government's work with allies to establish the Multilateral Defence Mechanism and the recognition by the Governments of the United Kingdom and Canada that the two initiatives have a high degree of complementarity; and believes that participation in the DSRB could strengthen the UK's defence industrial base, support skilled manufacturing jobs and increase opportunities for British firms in allied defence supply chains.
