Mr. Hunt: To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport by what date he expects the Sport England Strategy for 2008 to 2011 to have been implemented. [261466]
Mr. Sutcliffe [holding answer 6 March 2009]: Sport Englands new strategy runs between April 2008 and March 2011, and implementation is ongoing during this period.
A key element of the strategy is Sport Englands investment in national governing bodies of sport (NGBs). 46 NGBs have been commissioned to deliver specific outcomes over four years, contributing to the outcomes Sport England has committed to achieving, including 1 million more people engaged in sport by 2012-13.
Mike Penning: To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland whether his Department has provided voice coaching to any of its employees in the last 12 months. [260643]
Ann McKechin: My Office has not provided voice coaching for staff in the last 12 months.
Mike Penning: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether his Department has provided voice coaching to any of its employees in the last 12 months. [260642]
Paul Goggins: The Northern Ireland Office has not provided voice coaching for any employees in the last 12 months.
Mrs. Iris Robinson: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many people have been (a) charged with and (b) convicted of sex offences in Northern Ireland in each of the last six years. [260136]
Paul Goggins: The information requested is as follows:
(a) The data are not in the format requested as only case-based data are available. As several persons may be involved in a crime and only one person is required to clear a crime that has been committed, it is only possible to give the number of cases of sexual offences that were cleared by means of a charge or summons. This information is documented in Table 1 for the years 2002-03 to 2007-08.
(b) Table 2 documents those convicted of a sexual offence for the calendar years 2001 to 2006 (the latest years for which data are available). Data are collated on the principal offence rule; only the most serious offence with which an offender is charged is included.
It is not possible to compare the data provided in the two tables as those relating to Table 1 are case-based while those relating to Table 2 are person-based.

Commission in which incidents (a) police officers, (b) armed police officers and (c) security officers have been injured in the course of their work in (i) the Palace of Westminster and (ii) the parliamentary estate in each of the last five years for which figures are available; at which location each injury occurred; whether any person was subsequently (A) arrested and (B) convicted of causing injury; and if he will make a statement. [263242]
Nick Harvey: There are two relevant incidents recorded within the last five years:
25 February 2008: Security officer apprehended a youth apparently stealing a bicycle (on Millbank). During the course of this incident the security officer sustained a grazed knee. There was insufficient evidence to proceed with prosecution of the suspect.

Jo Swinson: To ask the hon. Member for North Devon, representing the House of Commons Commission what steps are being taken to increase the number of sockets providing access to the Parliamentary network for network users in (a) 1 Parliament Street and (b) other parts of the parliamentary estate to allow all computers in hon. Members' offices to access the network at the same time. [263860]
Nick Harvey: There are no proposals to increase the number of sockets available in Members offices across the estate; nor, so far as I am aware, is there any demand for such an increase. Any individual cases would be looked at on their merits, including the costs involved and the capacity of the system in the area.
Mr. Amess: To ask the hon. Member for North Devon, representing the House of Commons Commission how many cases of theft from inside (a) the Palace of Westminster and (b) each other building on the Parliamentary estate were reported in each of the last five years; what items were reported stolen; what the estimated value of each was; and if he will make a statement.
