New details of the timetable for the roll-out of Universal Credit have been published., external It looks like Wakefield is to be the last place in England to get it, in April next year.

As with earlier roll-outs these will only be for new claims from single people, who would otherwise have been eligible for Jobseeker’s Allowance.

The Commons Justice Committee is to hold an inquiry into the treatment of young adult offenders in the criminal justice system.

It will look at the nature and effectiveness of the Ministry of Justice's strategy and structures for dealing with young offenders and the suitability of current provisions for young adult offenders.

The deadline for submissions is 30 September 2015.  

The topic turns to water cannon, following Theresa May's decision to not allow them to be used by police in England and Wales.

What will happen to the three water cannon purchased by London Mayor Boris Johnson (who is also a Conservative MP)?

"That is a decision for the mayor of course", responds Mrs May, who then defends her decision and sets out how it was reached.

It wasn't a popular decision with Mr Johnson, who is reported to have said it was part of a deliberate attempt by Mrs May and George Osborne to "humiliate" him and harm his Tory leadership ambitions.

Theresa May says the UK should be "proud" of what it has done to support Syrian refugees. Nearly £900m in aid has been donated by the government, she says, pointing out it's the "second biggest" bilateral donor in the world.

The UK also plays its part in accepting a number of Syrian asylum seekers, the home secretary adds.

Away from the committee corridor for a moment, the Green Party  has said it will vote against the government's Finance Bill, currently being debated in the House of Commons.

Its Brighton Pavilion MP, Caroline Lucas, said the measures - set out by George Osborne earlier this month - were "deeply regressive", and criticised the government's "counter-productive austerity agenda".

Theresa May is questioned on the target to reduce net migration to the "tens of thousands" - which the government failed to meet in the last Parliament. She starts to recite the reasons for introducing the target - but chairman Keith Vaz says he wants her to focus on the question. She says the aim is to meet the target by the end of the Parliament, in 2020. At one time the figures did fall but a "significant increase" in EU migration has reversed that trend, she adds.

The Home Office has refused or cancelled 30 passports of people suspected of trying to travel abroad to engage in terrorism-related activity, Home Secretary Theresa May tells MPs in response to a question from Conservative MP David Burrowes.

New rules announced in 2013 give the government greater scope under the Royal Prerogative to restrict the travel of people intending to engage in terror training or extremist conflict.

Mrs May says it is a "significant power" that the home secretary holds and should be only be exercised in cases "where it's absolutely clear that it is necessary and proportionate to do so".

There is a "poisonous ideology" that is encouraging people to be radicalised and potentially to take violent action, Theresa May tells the cross-party panel. It will take a "collective effort" by society to address that, she says. It also involves working with the police and ensuring people have the confidence to report someone they are concerned about, the home secretary adds.

The current line of questioning of the home secretary is on the government's counter-extremism strategy, and the measures outlined by David Cameron in his speech yesterday to defeat Islamist extremism.

Keir Starmer, former director of public prosecution, probes plans to strengthen communications watchdog Ofcom's role to take action against foreign TV channels broadcasting extremist messages. He wonders whether it'll pose a conflict between free speech and the need to deal with extremism.

Theresa May says discussions are taking place with Ofcom on how to approach this, but adds that there is more the regulator should be able to do.

If you thought that was an end to our committee coverage – think again. We’re flicking over to the Home Affairs Committee now, where Theresa May is giving evidence. Busy day.

Before the committee session ends George Osborne takes a moment to pay tribute to senior civil servant James Bowler - sat to his left - who is moving on from his position as director of the Budget. He's produced five Budgets and has done a "fantastic job", says Mr Osborne, adding that he is to be promoted to director general of taxation and welfare in the Treasury. "I want to put on record my thanks to him," he says.

George Osborne is asked how well he thinks the pensions guidance (on the new pensions reforms) is working. "Pretty well", he tells the committee, saying feedback shows "high levels" of customer satisfaction. He adds that the department is now looking at how to extend that advice to people of younger ages.

Helen Goodman, the Labour MP who's been in the news lately for tabling the rebel Labour amendment to the welfare bill, focuses her questions to the chancellor on climate change.

"We don't agree politically", she tells Mr Osborne, "but I've always thought of you as an intelligent and rational person so I want to ask you this: are you a climate change denier"?

George Osborne replies:

Put to him that Labour's approach is partly down to it being without a permanent leader at the moment, Tim Farron replies:

George Osborne says he is looking at giving more "directional powers" to the Bank of England over the buy-to let mortgage market.

An announcement will be made within a couple of months, he adds. "It's all imminent."

Those powers will go further than those the bank has currently to make recommendations on the buy-to-let sector, he adds.
