On 2 November 2009, a new statutory duty for the UK Border Agency to safeguard children was introduced under section 55 of the Borders, Citizenship and Immigration Act 2009. Under this duty, all UK Border Agency staff, including enforcement staff, must complete a level 1 training package to promote awareness of children's welfare and help them to identify children at risk or in need and what action to take once identified.Those staff whose roles include frequent contact with children must complete more extensive training, at levels 2 & 3 (dependent upon their role). They develop specialist skills and techniques, including: handling children who may be potential victims of trafficking; the national referral mechanism; internet grooming; and the UN convention on the rights of the child (best interest).The UK Border Agency is currently reviewing their approach to managing family cases and is developing further training by working closely with child welfare organisations.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office plans to hold a round-table meeting in early 2011 with organisations, including some from Nigeria, working to defend the rights of children accused of witchcraft in the Niger Delta, a practice which we condemn. In the mean time, we will continue to work with key stakeholders and to press the Nigerian authorities to address the issue.

Consumers are protected against aggressive sales marketing by the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPRs). The regulations ban commercial practices which through the use of harassment, coercion or undue influence are likely to significantly impair the average consumer's freedom of choice in relation to goods or services, and thereby cause or be likely to cause him to make a choice he would not otherwise have made (eg purchase a good or service he would not otherwise have purchased). The CPRs apply as much to online sales marketing as they do to traditional marketing techniques. The CPRs are enforced by the Office of Fair Trading and local authority trading standards services.

My Lords, I thank the Minister for that reply. Does she agree that it is entirely wrong, and not a little crazy, that the future of the magnificent and historic Wedgwood collection—a true national treasure—is threatened by the possibility of a massive debt not to a private company but to a non-departmental government body, the Pension Protection Fund? Have the Government plans to safeguard the collection so that it can remain in its award-winning museum in the heart of the Potteries? Will the Government take steps to ensure that, whatever the outcome of next year’s court case, no other collection can be so threatened?

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Earl, Lord Clancarty, who has tirelessly campaigned on this issue. We hope that museums will learn from this case and make certain that collections held in trust have legal protection to safeguard their objects. The court will determine whether the collection is available to an administrator and is put up for sale. DCMS will attempt to secure the collection for the nation. As the noble Earl said, clearly this is an extraordinary case. DCMS has helped all along, but it cannot provide further funding.

The noble Lord, Lord Howarth, has been involved with this for a long time. We have discussed this and he is absolutely right that the Government cannot influence what the court will take into account. The administrator is currently in control of the museum’s operations and will present the case to the court with evidence from the trustees. We hope that the trustees will be able to put their view to the court as part of the evidence. Timings are difficult, but the noble Lord is right that the museum trust is currently liable under the new pension law for the pension debts of around £60,000. That is tiny compared to the liability of £134 million.

Would it not be grotesque if the Wedgwood archive, which is so extraordinarily important for our country’s industrial heritage, were broken up, destroyed and sold to raise no more than a small fraction of the deficit in the Waterford Wedgwood pension scheme? While we hope that the court will rule in this case that the collection is inviolate and thus enable the collection to remain as and where it is in the Potteries, will the Minister please say what the Government will do to put in place a regime that will ensure that there is reliable protection in the future for nationally designated museum collections?
