The Football Association has signed a new England kit deal with Nike worth more than £400m which will run from August 2018 until 2030.

The deal will encompass 24 England teams across the men's and women's game and could rise if performance-related targets are achieved.
FA chief Martin Glenn said the deal would allow the non-profit organisation "to invest even more in the game".
The government has threatened to cut FA funding if it does not reform.
And on Monday it said it could bring in legislation to force change.
A group of former FA executives have written a letter to parliament, urging reform for a body they claim is outdated and held back "by elderly white men".
The FA says it is working on governance reforms to adhere to Sport England and UK Sport's Governance Code for Sport, which was released in October.
The FA has also started a review into claims of sex abuse in football.
Nike have supplied England for the last three years but the new deal is worth less than the £42.5m a year that world champions Germany receive.
"With the FA striving to be a world-class organisation, it's vital for us to partner with innovative global leaders such as Nike and look to the future together," said FA group commercial and marketing director Mark Bullingham.
The deal struck has reportedly not grown substantially partly because of England's disappointing Euro 2016 campaign where they lost to Iceland at the last-16 stage.
It was the second tournament at which the country had worn Nike, following on from England's exit at the group stage of the 2014 World Cup.
In its 2015 financial accounts, the FA made £56m of its its £318m revenue from sponsorship and licensing. But the organisation made a £9m annual loss overall.
In the same year, its accounts state £117m was invested back into the game.


Twitter has announced new ways for users to tackle abusive messages and hateful content on its platform.

The "mute" button, which enables users to not see tweets from individual accounts, is being extended to prevent tweets containing chosen key words or phrases appearing in the notifications bar.
It will also enable users to opt out of seeing conversations they are added to.
There will be more categories for reporting offensive material as well.
Twitter admitted the steps would not remove abusive conduct from the platform altogether.
"No single action by us would do that," wrote vice-president for public policy and communications Sinead McSweeney in a blog post.
"Instead, we commit to rapidly improving Twitter based on everything we observe and learn."
Ms McSweeney admitted dealing with abuse on the site in public and "in real time" was a challenge and hateful speech had been a "growing trend" on the platform as well as on the internet as a whole.
She said all support team staff had been "retrained" to be more aware of cultural and gender issues in order to provide more effective enforcement.
"Our goal is a faster and more transparent process," she said.
Abuse on Twitter is not just a safety issue for the company - it is a threat to its future.
Many users are complaining it is getting worse and unless more action is taken to deal with abusers, they will leave a network already struggling with slow growth.
So do these policies go far enough to address the issue?
They certainly provide effective new tools for users who want to stop seeing abusive - or just annoying -  messages.
There is also the promise of more ways to report abusive tweeters and stronger enforcement action against them.
But here is where it all becomes rather unclear.
When I asked Twitter's European security chief how many people it suspended, whether levels of abuse were rising, and how many people were now employed to deal with complaints, I received no answers.
The company rightly says this is not an issue unique to Twitter but it gets the spotlight because it is an open and public network.
But maybe a little more transparency about the scale of the issue would help convince victims of abuse it was being taken seriously.


The daughter of a man who died after a hospital failed it its "duty of care" said lessons have not been learned.

Colchester Hospital was rated as inadequate after a recent Care Quality Commission (CQC) inspection found it was relying on "unsuitable" agency staff.
Norman Betchley died in 2009 after he was mistakenly fed a pill by an agency nurse.
The hospital said the CQC report did not reflect improvements it has made.
Inspectors said the hospital demonstrated "poor leadership" and "only a limited capacity to improve".
Staff were let down by agency workers, who were not as committed and were "unsuitable in terms of their skills and knowledge".
Mr Betchley's daughter Linda said she feels angry that "nothing has changed" since he died.

She added: "At the time they said there was a deficit in trained staff and there was a breakdown in management and the girl was thrown in at the deep end.
"Many of the items raised in this most recent report were raised back then. I don't see them being addressed soon.
"There is no leadership, there is no support for the actual nurses on the wards."
Chief executive Frank Sims, who started in the role last month, admitted its biggest challenge is "reducing our dependency on agency staff."
"We have got more staff employed now than we have ever had, and since September we have recruited 75 more qualified nurses but we have still got a long way to go."
The trust which runs the hospital has been in special measures since 2013.
The CQC has recommended it remains in special measures for the next three months, during which time it must submit a weekly improvement plan.
Mr Sims said his intention is to "focus entirely on getting out of special measures this year".


Accrington Stanley have signed Leeds United forward Mallik Wilks on loan until 3 January.

The 18-year-old made his first-team debut for Leeds in their FA Cup fourth-round defeat by Sutton United last season.
"I'm here to play games, score goals and fight for promotion," said Wilks.
"I've been at Leeds since I was 15, this is my first loan spell and I'm excited to get going and make that step up to senior league football."
Wilks has also extended his Leeds contract by one year, keeping him at Elland Road until the end of the 2018-19 season.

Comedian Ricky Gervais is to return for the fourth time as the host of Hollywood's Annual Golden Globe Awards.

The Briton caused controversy in 2010 when he made barbs at some of Hollywood's leading stars and had vowed in 2012 to never host the awards again.
But in a blog post entitled "Ricky's back!" the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which organises the Golden Globes, confirmed the news.
The 73rd ceremony will take place on 10 January in Los Angeles.
Employing British vernacular, Gervais tweeted: "It's a good job I'm drunk. Otherwise the thought of hosting The Golden Globes again would seem like a real pain in the arse."
In a jibe at the US Republican 2016 presidential candidate Donald Trump, Gervais tweeted: "Now I want Donald Trump to stop saying things until the day before The Golden Globes."
In 2011, many critics felt Gervais would not be allowed to return to the Golden Globes, saying he had "crossed lines of taste and civility".
American broadcaster NBCUniversal confirmed Gervais had been named as host of the ceremony.
NBC Entertainment chairman Robert Greenblatt said: "Disarming and surprising, Ricky is ready to honour - and send up - the best work of the year in film and television.
"Fasten your seatbelts."


A US-based internet company is to create 289 jobs in Londonderry.

OneSource Virtual specialises in human resources, and has its headquarters in Dallas, Texas.
Its Derry operation is to open in September, and all 289 jobs are to be in place by the end of December 2017.
The roles include payroll administration, benefits administration and application management services. Most of the employees will have the potential to earn about £36,000 a year.
Jonathan Bell, the Enterprise, Trade and Investment Minister, said: "This is a major project for Londonderry.
"The company undertook a rigorous evaluation of a number of locations looking at the availability of a skilled workforce, local higher education provision, quality of life and cost of living, as well as the financial business case.
"It was down to two locations and, with the support of Invest NI, Londonderry was chosen, securing this project for Northern Ireland.
"When the project is fully operational, it will contribute nearly £12m of salaries to the economy annually.
"The new centre will service both existing OneSource clients in the US and new clients based in Europe as part of its expansion plans.
"This will offer staff an exciting and creative opportunity to provide innovative, cloud-based HR solutions to international firms.
"This is the second new investor for the city announced in a matter of weeks, which reflects our strong commitment to working with our partners in the north west to deliver projects that will provide economic benefit, not only to the immediate area, but also to the whole of Northern Ireland."
OneSource Virtual co-founder and CEO Brian Williams said: "We will be looking for technology graduates with three to five years experience who possess strong verbal skills and thrive in a fast-paced environment as well as experienced UK payroll professionals.
"With the support of Invest NI, through its skills growth programme, we will be providing the staff with intensive training and support throughout their career.
"We have been very impressed by the opportunities we see in Londonderry and are looking forward to working closely with the business community and local colleges and universities to help develop our centre."


Pupils will have to score more highly to gain a "good pass" in their GCSEs, under changes to England's exams.

Candidates will have to obtain a Grade 5, equivalent to a low B or high C now, as grading switches to numbers nine to one in exams to be taken first in 2017.
The aim is to make standards comparable to top-performing countries such as Finland, Canada, and the Netherlands.
Education Secretary Nicky Morgan says raising the bar on GCSE exams will help pupils achieve in life.
The new grading system, which replaces the A to G system with a new nine-to-one numbered scale, comes as new "more rigorous" GCSEs  are being introduced for first teaching this September.
The new grading system has been designed to reveal the differences between candidates at the top end.
Currently, candidates are expected to achieve a C to attain a "good pass", although grades below this are still officially considered passes.
The government has also appointed school behaviour guru Tom Bennett to draw up plans to help teachers address problems of "low level disruption" in classrooms.
New GCSEs
The announcement comes just a week after the government said all pupils would have to study English Baccalaureate (EBacc)  subjects to GCSE.
It means they must sit English, maths, science, history or geography, and a language.
Mrs Morgan said: "This means ensuring children study key subjects that provide them with the knowledge they need to reach their potential - while setting a higher bar at GCSE so young people, their parents and teachers can be sure that the grades they achieve will help them get on in life."
Mr Bennett will lead a new group that will develop training for teachers on behaviour.
He said: "Behaviour has been the elephant in the classroom for too long, and the amount of learning time lost because of disruption is a tragedy.
"At present, training teachers to anticipate, deal with and respond to misbehaviour is far too hit and miss - great in some schools and training providers, terrible in others."
The government says the new measures will place England's education system on a par with the best-performing countries, pushing expectations and aspirations of young people and ensuring they can compete with peers across the globe.
National Union of Teachers general secretary Christine Blower said: "From September, the EBacc will in effect become compulsory.
"A bad idea has suddenly become much worse. It will cause dismay among parents.
"Parents, like teachers, want a broad and balanced curriculum for their children.
"It is the responsibility of government to translate that aspiration into a curriculum that reflects the many demands that are made on the school, and that can involve and engage all learners."


Deflation in the eurozone eased in March as the unemployment rate dipped slightly in February, figures show.

The EU's statistics office figures found consumer prices fell by 0.1% in March from a year earlier, as against a 0.3% fall last month.
The downward pressure on prices has come from the drop in energy costs, but which now appear to be levelling out.
The unemployment rate in the eurozone fell from 11.4% to 11.3% in February.
The total decline of 329,000 in the number of eurozone jobless in the three months to February is the largest three-month fall since the three months to April 2007.
The numbers suggest businesses are becoming more willing to step up hiring encouraged by very low oil prices, a markedly weaker euro and a major stimulus from the European Central Bank (ECB).
In January the ECB announced a quantitative easing programme to purchase more than â‚¬1tn ($1.07tn, Â£730bn) in assets - pumping money into the banking system to boost the eurozone economy, and stave off deflation.
Despite the headline rate rising to -0.1%, core annual inflation - which excludes energy and food prices - continued to fall, dropping to 0.6% from  0.7% in February.
Jonathan Loynes, chief European economist at Capital Economics, said: "The latest data on eurozone inflation and unemployment do little to diminish the danger of a prolonged period of deflation in the currency union.
"The increase was driven entirely by higher food and energy inflation, no doubt partly reflecting the drop in the euro during the month."


Denmark central defender Erik Sviatchenko has signed a four-and-a-half year deal with Celtic.

Sviatchenko, 24, joins from Danish champions Midtjylland for a fee in the region of £1.5m.
"I will do everything I can to bring success to Celtic," Sviatchenko told the official Celtic website.
"It means so much to me to join a winning club, to join a club that goes for and wins trophies and wants to play in the Champions League."
Sviatchenko made his international debut in March and has since earned three more caps, and also has Champions League experience with the Danish champions.
He also helped them reach the last 32 of this season's Europa League.
"I have had a taste of winning with Midtjylland and I want more of this feeling at Celtic," he said. "When you play football, you want to be remembered for winning and I want to be remembered as a winner with Celtic.
"I know we have a squad of really talented players and I can't wait to get started, team up with them and get to work."


A panel appointed by India's Supreme Court has suspended two top Indian Premier League teams for two years over a corruption scandal.

Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals have been found guilty in an illegal betting and match-fixing probe.
The panel also suspended Royals co-owner Raj Kundra and Gurunath Meiyappan of Super Kings from all cricket-related activities for life.
The IPL is the richest of the world's Twenty20 cricket leagues.
Top Indian and international players take part each spring. Chennai Super Kings are led by India skipper MS Dhoni, while the Royals are led by the Australian batsman Steve Smith.
Chennai have reached four finals, winning in 2010 and 2011. The Royals won the inaugural tournament in 2008.
The three-member panel made the recommendations, which are binding, on Tuesday. It said the suspension of the two teams was to protect "the integrity of the game".
Correspondents say the developments will come as a blow to the eight-team league and raise questions about how the Indian cricket board, which runs the tournament, will find replacements to fill the two empty places.
Failure to find replacements would lead to considerable loss of revenues for the league.
"Disrepute has been brought to cricket, the BCCI [Board Of Control For Cricket In India] and the IPL to such an extent that there are doubts abound in the public whether the game is clean or not," said former chief justice Rajendra Lodha, who headed the panel.
Mr Lodha added that the panel's decision could be challenged in court, but he expected it would stand.
The panel was formed in January following an investigation by a separate committee into wrongdoing in the 2013 tournament.
Test bowler Shanthakumaran Sreesanth and his former Rajasthan Royals team-mate Ankeet Chavan were banned for life by the BCCI after being arrested in May 2013 on suspicion of taking money to concede a minimum number of runs.
This is a good, but incomplete decision by the Supreme Court-appointed panel.
Considering that officials from both teams have been found guilty of corruption, the two teams should have been banned for life.
That would have sent out a really strong signal to clean up Indian cricket.
How do we know that the two teams, under the same management, will not be back under different names in the next season itself? Or can the two teams actually continue to play under different owners? There are always loopholes through which the owners can return to run the same team with a new name.
"They deserve this punishment" - social media reaction
Last year the top court found Gurunath Meiyappan, son-in-law of former Indian cricket board chief Narayanaswami Srinivasan, and co-owner of the Royals Raj Kundra, guilty on charges of betting and passing on information to illegal bookmakers.
Mr Srinivasan, who has been banned from holding any post in India's cricket board, where he served as president for three years from 2011, has a stake in Chennai Super Kings.


Billie Eilish may only be 15 years old, but she's already a formidable talent (and a real-life pirate, but more on that later).

A member of the Los Angeles Children's Chorus, she wrote her first song - about falling into a black hole - when she was four.
But it was her dance instructor who unlocked her talent for smart, dark pop songs when he asked her to submit a song for class.
Along with her older brother Finneas, Billie came up with Ocean Eyes - an astonishingly assured ballad which compared falling in love to falling off a cliff under "napalm skies".
She posted it on Soundcloud so her teacher could hear it, went to bed, and woke up to a flurry of emails about her burgeoning music career.
Since then, she's been on a steep upswing, signed by Interscope Records and releasing one head-turning track after another. The highlight (so far) is Bellyache, in which she sings from the point of view of a conflicted psychopath.
"Where's my mind?" she trills as an acoustic guitar trades blows with a gut-punch drum loop. "Maybe it's in the gutter, where I left my lover."
It's the pop equivalent of a Tarantino movie - finding comic absurdity in the midst of eye-popping gore. The lyrics might keep it off the radio, but Billie isn't too worried.
"I don't need many people to care," says the singer. "Even if other people don't like it, I like it."
As she gears up to release her first EP, Eilish sat down for a frank chat with the BBC about her lyrical fantasies, getting to grips with the music industry and her very unusual middle name.
Hello Billie Eilishâ€¦ Have I pronounced that right?
Yes! It's eye-lish, like eyelash with a lish.
Your family name is O'Connell, though, so is that a stage name?
It is my middle name. So I'm Bille Eilish Pirate Baird O'Connell.
Pirate! That's an amazing name.
Pretty weird, right? Pirate was going to be my middle name but then my uncle had a problem with it because pirates are bad. Then Baird is my mother's name.

It's been a year since Ocean Eyes went onto Soundcloud. It was written for a dance class, right?
Oh yeah! My dance teacher knew that I sing, so he asked us to make a song and I thought that was the coolest thing ever.
My brother had written Ocean Eyes and we recorded it, basing all of the production around contemporary and lyrical dance. I think of most songs that way - if you can't dance to a song, it's not a song.
Anyway, we put it on Soundcloud, literally to send the link to my teacher and then it just grew from there.
It's been played more than nine million times now. When did you notice it was taking off?
It was really confusing. I didn't understand what was going on. I literally thought it was like my popular friend had reposted it. 'Wow, it's getting so many listens!'
What happened next?
A lot of meetings!
What are those meetings like? Do you go in super-confident, like, "I've got the goods, what are you going to offer me?" or is it totally nerve-wracking?
I was 13 when this started, so I didn't know anything about anything. I'd go into meetings and they'd say, "So Billie, what do you think?" and I'd just be like, "Am I supposed to know? Because I don't,".
But eventually I got the hang of it. And now the meetings I have are a bit more like, "OK, Billie, what exactly do you want?' and then I explain every single detail of every single thing that I'm thinking; and people do it!
It's insane. You have stuff floating around in your mind and you tell somebody and they go, "Oh yeah, we can make that happen". It's like, "What? WHY?".
So it's like Spider-Man. With great power comes great responsibility.
I am exactly like Spider-Man. I promise.
I get the impression from your lyrics, especially, that you have a very clear idea of the things you want to talk about.  How do you approach writing?
Lyrics are so important but they're really underrated. So many lyrics right now are just the same thing - "Oh, I love you but I'm sad because you don't love me and... blah". You can say that in a more interesting way.
Me and my brother write a lot of fiction. Like in Bellyache, obviously. I don't kill people.
That's a relief.
Right? But you can put yourself in a character or a situation you would not normally be in. You don't have to be in love to write a love song. You don't have to kill somebody to write a song about killing somebody. It's like jumping into another world.
So do you consider it like acting? Or do you really want to murder someone, but haven't got round to it yet?
Yikes! Maybe...
But both of my parents are actors, and I was in plays when I was younger. Then I went to an audition and I came back going, "I hate this. I'm not doing this ever again."
What happened at that audition?
Some lame stuff, dude.
But it's just fun to get to tell a story [in a song]. If you just write about things you've been through, you might get to a point where you go, "I don't feel like this any more, so it's not worth pursuing".
No. No. It's especially worth it.
What's the lyric you're proudest of?
Well, I wrote Bellyache with my brother, and he wrote Ocean Eyes, and we have a ton of other songs on the EP that I'm really excited about.
Do you find you write better with him than anyone else?
We've had sessions with artists and writers and producers and not that those sessions were bad, but when we write, just us together, it's so much more raw, I guess. And straight from the heart.
Tell me how Bellyache came to be...
I wasn't like, "Let's write a song about killing someone!". We were sitting in my garage rehearsing for a show with my brother's friends. Finneas started riffing on the guitar, and one of them started playing on the piano, and I sang the first line - "Sitting all alone, with a mouthful of gum in the driveway".
Then my brother sang, "My friends aren't far, in the back of the car" and I was like "Lay their bodies," like I had killed them. And he just said, "Woah, that's so cool!".
It just grew from there. He came into my room a couple of days later and he was like, 'dude, I wrote the chorus for this'. And he sang it all, and the last line was, "And now I got a bellyache" and I was like, "That is genius".
It's such a childish line. No grown up says, "I have a bellyache, I gotta go". But it's kind of part of the song, because it's about someone whose really young and knows they're a psychopath. They're like, "Maybe I shouldn't steal this money and kill these people... but I'm going to anyway".
It's a very cinematic lyric. You can see the film opening on you in the car, then the camera cuts to the bodies in the boot.
Some people don't really realise what I'm saying until they've listened to it a couple of times. My friends would be like, "Dude I was listening to Bellyache the other day, actually listening to it, and what the hell were you writing about?".
And then you say, "I'm glad you've heard it. Now never cross me again".
Exactly. Don't wrong me.
Your new song is called Copycat. What's that about?
You'll understand when you hear it, but it's about people who feel justified in copying everything you do. It's not about someone particular, I just wrote it.
I had two sisters growing up - and that sort of thing seemed to happen quite frequently in their peer groups. Is it a girl thing?
It probably is, and it's tortuous. Especially if it's somebody close to you. It's like, "Be your own self - don't try to be me!".
You've just played your first headline show in the UK. Do you get nervous?
Not really. I don't get nerves, I just get excited.
Does your dance training help with confidence and stage presence?
Yeah. I mean, I was really a dancer. Then I got injured, so I haven't really danced since Ocean Eyes came out.
Oh no, what happened?
I strained my growth plate. My bone separated from my muscle in my hip. It was really bad.
It's so weird, because it can't happen to you if you're over 16 - but I was in a class with a bunch of seniors, because I was at that level. We were doing hip-hop and it just popped. So I haven't really danced since then, which was like a year-and-a-half ago, which has been horrible.
There is a dance video for Ocean Eyes, though, so are you on the mend?
I was injured for the dance video, actually. I had sprained my ankle in December,and I had also strained my groin and I have shoulder problems.
That's a sign to concentrate on the music.
I guess it is, but I'm trying to get back into dance slowly.
I love movement. I love moshing.  I always heads right for the front and dig in there and mosh really hard with all the guys. None of the girls want to mosh, so I'm like the only girl getting punched in the face.
Billie Eilish releases her new song, Copycat, today. Her previous singles, Ocean Eyes, Bored, Bellyache and Watch are all available now.

Defending champion John Higgins went out of the Welsh Open in the fourth round, but Ronnie O'Sullivan is through to the quarter-finals in Cardiff.

Media playback is not supported on this device
Scotland's four-time world champion Higgins, 40, was beaten 4-1 by 24-year-old Welshman Michael White.
Englishman O'Sullivan, 40, had little trouble beating China's Yu Delu by the same score.
"I'm pleased to still be in the tournament. No matches here are a gimme," said O'Sullivan.
"John Higgins, the second greatest player I have ever seen, has been beaten. It takes a top player to have a slightly off day and you are going out."
O'Sullivan lost the opening frame when Yu fluked a re-spotted black.
"Yu Delu is a brilliant player so I was a bit nervous at the start," said O'Sullivan.
"I maybe was giving him a little bit too much respect. I lost the first frame but got some momentum going after."
O'Sullivan will play Mark Selby in the last eight after the world number one beat Welshman Mark Williams 4-2.
World number six Judd Trump missed a potential match-winning black in frame six, allowing Joe Perry to take the match into a decider, which he won.
Perry next faces Ben Woollaston, who won another all-English match, beating Martin Gould 4-1.
Northern Ireland's Mark Allen won a final-frame decider to beat Barry Hawkins of England 4-3 to set up a match against White.
Australia's Neil Robertson and Ding Junhui complete the quarter-final line-up. Robertson beat Hong Kong's Marco Fu 4-2 while Ding defeated Belgium's Luca Brecel by the same margin.


Hyperloop One, the firm that wants to build a futuristic super-fast transport system, has announced that the first version may connect Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

In a video, it promised journey times of 12 minutes between the two cities.
The technology is still in testing phase so details of the deal were sketchy.
Initially, it will explore the feasibility of building a line linking the two cities.
Hyperloop was originally  an idea from Tesla's boss and tech entrepreneur Elon Musk, who conceived the technical details of the transport system but left it to commercial firms to make the vision a reality.
The high-speed transportation system would use electric propulsion to accelerate a passenger or cargo pod through a low-pressure tube at speeds of up to 700mph. The vehicle would levitate above the track, which is likely to be built on stilts above the ground.
There are currently two main firms attempting to make it a reality - Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) and Hyperloop One.
Hyperloop One, which hosted its Dubai announcement at the top of the world's tallest building - the Burj Khalifa - has signed a feasibility deal with the emirate's roads and transportation agency.
It will explore the possibility of using the technology at Dubai's Jebel Ali port.
Journey times between Dubai and Abu Dhabi are currently an hour or more.
It suggested that the system could also be used to cut journey times from Dubai to Riyadh to 48 minutes and from Dubai to Doha to 23 minutes.
Rival Hyperloop firm HTT signed a deal in March to bring its technology to Slovakia, aiming to link Bratislava with Vienna and Budapest.
The team at Hyperloop One is expected to unveil the first glimpse of what the transportation pods will look like soon.
Prof David Bailey, from the Aston Business School, said the plan in the United Arab Emirates was "more feasible" than previous announcements to use Hyperloop to connect Los Angeles and San Francisco.
"Building it through the desert means you can plan a route that is straight - it doesn't do curves very well - and the government there will see it as a way to be at the forefront of a new technology," he told the BBC.
But he added there remained a lot of "technical and other hurdles" to overcome, not least whether people would want to travel at such high speeds and in such a manner.


Aston Villa have appointed former Tottenham and QPR first-team coach Kevin Bond to work alongside new manager Roberto di Matteo.

Bond, 58, joins the Italian, who was announced as boss at Villa Park on 2 June, with former Reading manager Steve Clarke, 52, named as his assistant.
Villa were relegated from the Premier League in April, finishing on just 17 points.
Chinese businessman Dr Tony Xia agreed to buy Villa for £60m in May.
Bond was reserve team coach under Harry Redknapp at Portsmouth, before following him to Southampton to work as coach in 2004. The pair returned to Fratton Park a year later, and Bond joined Redknapp at Tottenham in 2008 and QPR in 2012.
Clarke, who was sacked as Reading boss in December 2015, previously managed West Midlands rivals West Brom.
Italian Massimo Battara is the club's new goalkeeping coach, while compatriot Massimiliano Marchesi has been appointed fitness coach.
Battara has experience at Napoli, Fiorentina, Inter Milan and Manchester City, and worked with Di Matteo at Bundesliga side Schalke.
Marchesi's most recent job was at Italian giants Inter having worked in the Middle East for 10 years.


England women's first game at Wembley will be played in front of a record attendance of 55,000 supporters.

The match against Germany on Sunday, 23 November is a sell-out after the Football Association capped ticket sales because of engineering works on the London Underground.
"We apologise to anyone disappointed but this is a sensible decision based on travel advice," said the FA.
The match, which kicks off at 15:00 GMT, will be shown live on BBC Two.
England's previous largest crowd was 29,092 at Etihad Stadium for a Euro 2005 victory over Finland.
The FA was hoping for a crowd of around 30,000 for the game against Germany, but, with more than 20,000 tickets sold in the last 10 days, the decision to halt sales was made.
The organisation added that, in making the decision, it took into account a previous men's game between England and Andorra in 2009, which attracted 58,000 fans with similar travel restrictions in place.
Both England and European champions Germany have qualified for the 2015 World Cup, which takes place in Canada in June.


Medy Elito's second-half hat-trick condemned Carlisle to a fourth straight defeat as Cambridge won at Brunton Park.

The Cumbrians' League Two automatic promotion hopes took another hit as they conceded two penalties before having James Bailey sent off in stoppage time.
Half-time substitute Elito, who had three goals in 19 U's appearances going into the game, scored both spot-kicks and secured the match ball with a strike five minutes into added time.
Carlisle looked short on confidence in a dull opening period, with Cambridge top scorer Luke Berry firing a shot over the crossbar from outside the box and George Maris going close with an effort which fizzed across the face of the Carlisle goal.
Cambridge broke the deadlock with a 66th-minute penalty after Gary Liddle fouled Berry just inside the area and Elito hammered the spot-kick high into the net.
Within five minutes, referee Robert Jones was pointing at the spot again when Nicky Adams fouled Max Clark and Elito again beat Mark Gillespie.
The home side finished with nine men after Mike Jones went off injured with all their substitutes already used before Bailey was shown a straight red card for an off the ball incident.
Elito then completed his hat-trick when he curled a shot past Gillespie from inside the area.

Dog owners have been warned not to leave their pets in hot cars following a spike in calls to the RSPCA last month.

RSPCA Cymru said it received 290 reports of animals in hot places, like cars, vans and conservatories, between January and June this year.
But 133 reports were made last month alone - accounting for 46% of calls.
The charity stressed leaving animals in hot environments could have "disastrous consequences".
According to RSPCA Cymru, the figures suggest the charity receives more than one call on the issue every five and a half hours in Wales.
Supt Martyn Hubbard said: "Put simply, there are fatal dangers of leaving animals in unsuitable environments, like dogs in warm cars.
"Temperatures can soar quickly in a car, caravan, conservatory or outbuilding. If it's 22C outside, within an hour the temperature can reach 47C inside, which can have disastrous consequences for animals."
A peak of reports of animals struggling over July "seems very possible", he added.


The much-heralded "world's highest and longest" glass-bottomed bridge has opened to visitors in central China.
It connects two mountain cliffs in what are known as the Avatar mountains (the film was shot here) in Zhangjiajie, Hunan province.
Completed in December, the 430m-long bridge cost $3.4m (Â£2.6m) to build and stands 300m above ground, state news agency Xinhua reported.
It has been paved with 99 panes of three-layered transparent glass.
And according to officials, the 6m-wide bridge - designed by Israeli architect Haim Dotan - has already set world records for its architecture and construction.
Glass bridges in China have been a popular craze for the daring photo opportunities they provide. Events like mass yoga displays and even weddings have been staged on several such bridges.
One couple celebrated their special day by dangling in mid-air from a bridge in Pingjiang, also located in Hunan province.
This was the question on everyone's minds as the city geared up for the bridge's official opening.
But officials have staged high-profile events to try and reassure the public of the bridge's safety.
Officials sent in sledgehammers and even drove a car, filled with passengers, across the bridge earlier this year.
The BBC's Dan Simmons was invited to take a bash at the bridge.
Park officials have said a maximum of 8,000 visitors will be allowed on the bridge each day.
So those wanting to add another thrill to their bucket list are strongly encouraged to book their slots in advance.


Ghana coach Avrant Grant believes the poor pitches at the Africa Cup of Nations are damaging the players.

Grant is one of a number of voices to criticise the playing surfaces in Gabon and he declared "five injuries so far have been down to the pitch".
The Israeli added: "The main actors are the players and we need to give them the stage to perform well.
"The organising committee should change the rules to let teams replace players who got injured due to the pitch."
Grant highlighted the problem facing Group D rivals Egypt, who have only veteran stopper Essam El Hadary available after injuries to Ahmed El Shenawy and Sherif Ekramy but under tournament regulations cannot call up another goalkeeper to their squad.
"Two of Egypt's goalkeepers got injured due to the pitch. It is not their fault and not fair to them," Grant said.
"We cannot change the pitch now so let Egypt bring in another goalkeeper. They cannot stay with one 'keeper, even if we have to play against them, it's not sporting."
Tunisia defender Syam Ben Youssef believes the playing surface in Libreville - one of four pitches being used in Gabon - is so bad that his side will have to change their style when they face Zimbabwe there for their final Group B match.
So far the Carthage Eagles have played both their matches in Franceville, which is seen as the best of the four pitches.
"Of course (it will affect us) I think we have technical players we like to play," Ben Youssef said.
"But it's usual for us to play in Africa on bad pitches so we have to win and not care about the pitch."
Burkina Faso midfielder Adama Guira is also unhappy with the state of the pitches - but resigned to it at the same time.
After the Stallions' 1-1 draw with hosts Gabon in Libreville on Wednesday, he warned that players need to be careful in the conditions.
"To be honest it is very hard to play on that kind of a field because you can't control your running and stopping so it's difficult," he said.
"But we are in Africa and we are Africans so we'll do our best for our country."
Pitches are just about thinking and having the money - Caf must think about it
It is not just the pitch at the Stade de l'Amitie in Libreville that has been criticised. Mali's Bakary Sako was less than impressed with the surface in Port-Gentil after his side's goalless draw with Egypt.
"The pitch is horrendous it's really tough to control the ball, to drive with the ball, everything is tough," said the midfielder who plays his club football for Crystal Palace.
"You have to be focussed 100% but it is the same for both teams so we have to get on with it."
It is a problem that is not confined to the Nations Cup according to Grant, who revealed he was taken aback by the pitches when he first arrived in Africa as Ghana coach in November 2014.
"Africa has great champions but you can't play on these pitches," he told BBC Sport.
"I think when I came to Africa the first thing I was very very surprised about - and not in a good way - was the quality of the pitches.
"That's why I admire the local league and the local players - they are paid $100 a month, sometimes they aren't even paid, and the pitches are not so good.
"Eighty-two per cent of the injuries are ankle injuries and they are giving everything. You see the passion, I admire them really. The next target should be good pitches."
Former Cameroon international goalkeeper Joseph-Antoine Bell believes the continent's governing body, the Confederation of African Football (Caf), must address the issue.
"If the game is not attractive because of the pitch it means something," he told the BBC's World Football programme.
"Pitches are just about thinking and having the money - Caf must think about it.
"Africa likes to be told 'oh you have tried', but its not about doing your best it's about being the best."
However, it does not appear as though Caf is going to take any action soon, judging by comments made by Khalilou Fadiga, a former Senegal international now on Caf's technical and development committee.
"Let the players not expect the pitches in Africa to be like those in Europe," Fadiga said on Friday.


A gas firm looking for potential fracking locations has been given permission to drill exploratory groundwater monitoring boreholes in Nottinghamshire.

Planning permission was granted to Island Gas Limited (iGas) to drill four boreholes near Mission.
An iGas spokesman said data from the drilling "might be used to support a future fracking application".
Anti-fracking protestors said they had "lost a battle but not the war".
The protestors, including Misson parish councillor Jayne Watson, raised concerns about noise, potential impact on wildlife and whether or not there would be sufficient monitoring of iGas' activities.
The company insisted it would consult regularly with the Environment Agency over its plans.
Mrs Watson said the drilling, which was approved by Nottinghamshire County Council's planning committee, was intrinsically linked to a future application for exploratory shale gas drilling.
The licences granted by the government mean there are potentially hundreds of communities in Nottinghamshire who could see fracking on their doorstep.
In reality, though, it's a long way off - and companies such as iGas will have to clear several hurdles along the way.
Today's decision to grant permission for monitoring boreholes was a relative formality, but a busy public gallery underlined the growing determination among campaigners to stop fracking in its tracks.
Hydraulic fracturing or fracking is the process of drilling down into the earth before a high-pressure water mixture is directed at the rock to release the gas inside.
The firm said in a statement: "Establishing baseline monitoring is key to ensuring that our operations are carried out safely and environmentally responsibly."


A man with HIV has been jailed for seven years for infecting two women after having unprotected sex with them and not telling them about his condition.

One victim, known only as Miss B, said Mweetwa Muleya, 28, from Swansea, had destroyed her life.
He pleaded guilty to two counts of causing grievous bodily harm in May.
"The harm to these victims was of the worst kind," said Judge Huw Davies at Swansea Crown Court.
He told Muleya:  "You were selfish to a degree which beggars description."
The court was told Muleya, who came to the UK from Zambia in his teens, was given anti-retroviral medication to control the virus and advice on how to stop its spread.
He was told it would be a crime to have unprotected sex with someone and not disclose his HIV positive status.
But the court heard he fell into a lifestyle of drink and drugs and lapsed when it came to sexual health check-ups.
He was jailed for seven years with six months for unrelated drug offences.


France's press believes the acquittal of former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn of procuring prostitutes for sex parties is a stinging defeat for investigators, while still leaving the onetime presidential hopeful's image irreparably damaged.

Some believe that while Mr Strauss-Kahn's conduct may have been distasteful, the investigation's case was simply "poorly put together", as Bruno Becard puts it in La Nouvelle Republique du Centre Ouest.
Le Figaro's judicial affairs analyst Stephane Durand-Soufflant compares the ruling to taking a "chainsaw" to the prosecution's case.
"The criminal court in Lille so brutally pruned the tree of the case that the three botanists of the judicial investigation had cultivated in a greenhouse that nothing but a puny branch remained," he writes.
"In this story of orgies and cattle for slaughter" - as the prostitutes were reportedly referred to at the orgies in question - "the court decided it had to rule on the law, and not make a moral judgment," writes Pierre Frehel in Le Republicain Lorrain.
In L'Est Republicain, Philippe Marcacci says that only a week after one of the suspects in an unrelated 10-year paedophilia case was acquitted, this is "another fiasco" for the judicial system.
But in Belgium - scene of some of the sex parties Mr Strauss-Kahn attended - Thierry Dupiereux argues in L'Avenir that the fact that one of his co-defendants was convicted of pimping shows that the case overall was not "totally void", adding: "One cannot talk of a 'judicial fiasco'."
In the German magazine Der Spiegel, Stephan Simons argues that the acquittal still leaves Mr Strauss-Kahn - often referred to as "DSK" - morally "guilty".
"According to the ruling, DSK is not a pimp, but just a 'libertine' and a testosterone-damaged macho - not a criminal offence, but morally bankrupt. In the court of public opinion, he is still a convicted man."
Most commentators agree that Mr Strauss-Kahn is unlikely to relaunch his political career.
"His personal image is in ruins: He appeared as an immoral, misogynistic, supercilious, aloof and dishonest man," historian Christian Delporte writes in France's Le Figaro.
For Patrice Chabanet, in Le Journal de la Haute-Marne, Mr Strauss-Kahn - "already tarnished" by accusations - later thrown out - that he raped a hotel chambermaid in New York - has "now been finished off".
"Dominique Strauss-Kahn has his political future behind him", writes Raymond Couraud in L'Alsace. "Nobody knows if he regrets that, but he only has himself to blame."
But L'Express offers a chink of light for Mr Strauss-Kahn, pointing out that an opinion poll in April suggested that DSK - amid widespread disillusionment with politics - was the only French politician to see his rating rise.

A gym responsible for an "offensive" billboard poster has replaced it with one described as "even worse" than the original.

Anti-bullying charity Combat Bullying said the poster, which suggests being "fat & ugly" requires "a cure", gives fuel for bullies to pick on children.
Fit4Less said their advert in Sawley, Derbyshire, is intended to be "light-hearted fun".
But Natalie Harvey from the charity said it "absolutely disgusts" her.
She said she was bullied from the age of four for having a "ginger afro" and always felt "fat and ugly" herself.
"I was terribly bullied as a child to the point I was beaten up and had a broken arm, just because my hair was different," she said.
"I don't understand why we are using these kinds of advertising. It's almost like shaming people."
Mrs Harvey said she can deal with the advert as a 39-year-old woman, but young or vulnerable people might not be able to.
"If it's near a pub or where adults frequent I'm not bothered, but it's a big poster outside a family supermarket," she said.
She likened the Fit4Less posters to the television adverts for Tango in the 1990s.
One featured a man being slapped around the face, but the slap was changed to a kiss after reports of children copying this and perforating their eardrums.
A later advert, featuring James Corden as a "bullied fat boy" was pulled following reports that it led to the bullying of fat children.
The gym said in a statement: "Fit4less is a brand that doesn't take itself too seriously, the campaign is intended to be seen as light-hearted fun and we certainly don't mean to cause offence.
"By adopting a light-hearted approach we can reach a wider audience and gain the attention of people who wouldn't usually respond to traditional gym advertising."
"I find it quite comical but I'm having to explain what fat and ugly means to my five-year-old at the moment."
"They just keep getting away with it so they are going to keep doing it. I think it's wrong and I think it's rude."
"I think it's entertaining. People are just too sensitive really. It's just a bit of marketing."
"It can be offensive to a lot of people. I mean I'm quite fat. I've got a medical problem so I struggle."


Midfielder Leroy Fer hopes Swansea City and Queens Park Rangers can agree a deal so he can sign a permanent contract at the Welsh club.

The 26-year-old's loan at Swansea has come to an end after he joined from the Championship side in February.
Dutch international Fer, who made nine appearances for Swansea, still has a year to run on his QPR contract.
"The clubs have to sort it out, but I'm very happy [at Swansea]," he said after the 1-1 draw with Manchester City.
"Hopefully in the future I can sign a deal. I want to be more and more important for Swansea because the four months went well.
"I just need to wait and hopefully I can stay in Swansea."
Swansea manager Francesco Guidolin has admitted he will not have the final say on transfers this summer, but former Norwich player Fer says the Italian and chairman Huw Jenkins have been pleased with his contribution as Swansea secured their Premier League status.
"They're very happy with me right now, but they have to speak to QPR," he said.
"I was happy at QPR, but I always said I want to be playing at the highest league."
Fer, capped 11 times by Netherlands, joined QPR on a three-year deal in August 2014 from the Canaries, for a reported £8m.
He was part of the Rangers side relegated from the Premier League in 2014-15, and he was also relegated with Norwich in the previous campaign.


Vietnam has cancelled an event marking the 50th anniversary of Australia's bloodiest battle in the Vietnam War.

The commemoration of the battle of Long Tan was due to be held at a cross marking the site on Thursday.
More than 1,000 Australian veterans and their families have travelled to Vietnam to commemorate the anniversary.
Eighteen Australian soldiers and hundreds of North Vietnamese and Viet Cong fighters died in the battle, deep in southern Vietnam, on 18 August 1966.
Police blocked access to the site, which is on private land, without explanation on Wednesday.
Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop confirmed that the Vietnamese government said it will not allow the event to go ahead, although small groups will be allowed access on Thursday.
An official party involving the ambassadors of Australia and New Zealand will lay a wreath at the site.
Australia's foreign ministry said it was lodging complaints with the Vietnamese government as it was "deeply disappointed at this decision, and the manner in which it was taken, so close to the commemoration service taking place".
"Australian veterans and their families had planned to attend a ceremony at Long Tan marked by mutual respect to remember and honour the sacrifice of those lost in the Vietnam War from both sides," a statement said.
Local sensitivities are thought to have been behind the sudden decision to stop the event going ahead, although a number of low-key memorial events have been permitted in the past.


Uganda's main opposition leader Kizza Besigye has been charged with treason.

Mr Besigye was the main challenger to President Yoweri Museveni in the country's recent general election, which Mr Museveni won by a landslide.
He insists he was the rightful winner of the polls, but Uganda's top court upheld the official result.
"We have been informed by police today that Besigye appeared in court in Moroto and was charged with treason," said his lawyer Erias Lukwago.
Mr Besigye was arrested on Wednesday in downtown Kampala and flown to Moroto, where he has been in custody ever since.
It follows a series of arrests of the opposition leader during the election campaign.
Meanwhile, Mr Museveni was sworn in on Thursday for his fifth elective term, extending his 30-year rule of Uganda.
Foreign observers said the poll had been marred by fear and intimidation.
In a BBC interview, Mr Museveni rejected allegations of vote rigging, and accused Mr Besigye of planning to incite violence.
Responding to criticism from European Union observers that the electoral commission "lacked independence and transparency", Mr Museveni told the BBC's Zuhura Yunus that "those Europeans are not serious".
"Transparency is what we've been voting for," he added.
Mr Museveni, a key ally of the West in the campaign against militant Islamists in the region, seized power in 1986 and is credited with restoring stability to Uganda.
However, critics say he has become increasingly authoritarian.
On Friday, the US said Mr Museveni should "rein in" his security forces after they briefly arrested Mr Besigye, and fired tear gas to disperse his supporters in Kampala.


If AI did not already have a bad enough reputation, scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology are now teaching a machine how to be terrifying.

The Nightmare Machine turns normal images of faces and familiar landmarks into darker versions of themselves.
Members of the public are then being invited to vote for the scariest AI-generated faces.
Doing so will "help our algorithm learn scariness", the scientists said.
"Creating a visceral emotion, such as fear, remains one of the cornerstones of human creativity," writes the team.
"This challenge is especially important in a time where we wonder what the limits of artificial intelligence are  - can machines learn to scare us?"
Last year, scientists at Google ran a similar experiment - dubbed Deep Dream - in which everyday images were converted into psychedelic visions.
As well as being a bit of fun in the lead-up to Halloween, the MIT project illustrates how far AI research has come, said Quartz magazine.
"The two main techniques used in the project, style transfer and generative adversarial networks, were published in papers only last year," writes Dave Gershgorn.
"Now the technology is easy enough to implement in a novelty project made by just three computer scientists."


Rose Hakizimana's mother and four sisters were killed by Burundian Hutu rebels while they were housed in a camp for ethnic Tutsis forced to flee their homes.

She remembers finding her mother's body by identifying her legs. For a full year after the burial she had nightmares.
When people think of genocide in Africa, neighbouring Rwanda usually comes to mind after the slaughter of some 800,000 Tutsi and moderate Hutus in 100 days in 1994.
But over the years Burundi, which has a similar ethnic make-up and tensions, has also faced killings by both Tutsi and Hutus, driving a wedge into the fabric of the nation.
The most shocking was in 1972, when some estimate up to 300,000 Hutus were massacred in six weeks.
Ms Hazikimana has kept an album documenting acts of genocide in 1993 in which some 25,000 Tutsis are believed to have died, so that the crimes are not forgotten.
She went on to become an MP in the transitional government that brought peace to Burundi.
Now retired, she has a regular slot on local radio as a political commentator and says ethnicity is no longer an issue in politics.
"If you look at the current situation in the country, though we have a Hutu-dominated government that is not the problem," she told the BBC.
"What we are seeing now is a government that is not against Hutu or Tutsi, but a government that targets individuals who don't agree with their policies."
Her comments reveal how Burundi is now coping with ethnicity far better than its better-known neighbour.

This may be down to the Arusha Peace Accord, brokered by South Africa's former President Nelson Mandela.
Signed in August 2000, the ceasefire led to talks that eventually helped end the long, drawn-out conflict and got politicians from both sides of the ethnic divide talking - it put ethnicity centre stage.
The accord recognised the tensions between the dominant Tutsi minority and the Hutu majority as a catalyst to the conflict and came up with a 60-40 formula of proportional representation.
Two years ago, ex-rebel Godefroid Niyombare became the first ever Hutu army chief of general staff.
According to President Pierre Nkurunziza - a former rebel Hutu leader who came to power in the first democratic elections in 2005 - this new-look army is a testimony to reconciliation efforts.
"The base of our problems during former times were the army and the police - now we have both ethnic groups represented," the president told the BBC.
Such a comment from Rwanda's President Paul Kagame would be unthinkable, as tribal references are banned and considered tantamount to a denial of the genocide - a criminal offence.
A Rwandan opposition leader is currently on trial for propagating ethnic hatred because she has questioned why the official memorial to the 1994 genocide only mentions the Tutsis killed, not the Hutu victims.
Mr Kagame says such strong-arm tactics are needed to prevent a repeat of the massacres, but his critics say he is only keeping a lid on the tensions, which could boil over.
In Burundi where it was once also a taboo to mention ethnicity, politicians now make light of their ethnic differences in public debates, something analysts say has contributed to the healing process.
For example, traditionally Tutsis, who reared cattle, were thought to drink more milk than Hutus, who were farmers.
So a Tutsi might jest with a Hutu colleague who reaches out for the milk during an office tea-break: "You Hutus, you want to drink all the milk now."
Such banter, even in a bar, would be careless talk in Rwanda that could land you in jail.
This is not to say that Rwanda is not witnessing some reconciliation.
The show village of Bugesera, outside the Rwandan capital of Kigali, is an example.
Set up by a non-governmental organisation to show that enemies can live as neighbours, it has been Laurence Niyongira's home for the last 10 years.
The killers of her family are not only her friends, but people she now refers to as family.
Her neighbour's husband organised the killing of her family - a fact both families cannot hide.
"[But] we have reached reconciliation and have forgiven each other," she admits - words often repeated from other Bugesera residents.
Rwanda has also made much more progress when it comes to seeking justice for genocide victims, setting up community "gacaca" courts which tried close to two million people for their involvement.
In contrast Burundi has been slow in setting up national institutions to deal with the crimes committed.
But the government hopes that once there is funding and systems in place they will be able to let justice take its course - a Truth and Reconciliation Commission has been promised.
And unlike its neighbour, the symbols of reconciliation are not many or that obvious.
There is a mausoleum in the capital, Bujumbura, to remember Melchior Ndadaye - the first democratically elected Hutu president, who was assassinated in October 1993 by Tutsi soldiers.
A similar monument honours independence hero Louis Rwagsore, a royal prince who won respect from both the Tutsi and Hutu communities.
But the ethnic divide that Burundi experienced - with Tutsis dominating every sphere of society and neighbourhoods split along ethnic lines - is all but over.
Burundians consider themselves to be free and are confident that their country will not be torn apart by ethnic enmity again.
Human rights bodies like Amnesty International laud Burundi for embracing democracy and having a much better grasp of it than Rwanda.
For Ms Hazikimana, who knows that the former rebels now in power killed her family, the root cause of the misdeeds of Burundi's past was never ethnicity.
"Burundians never hated each other. It was all about politics and done for political gain. Politicians used money to convince people to carry out crimes and killings."


Edinburgh's main festivals should be run to coincide fully with Scottish school holidays, the capital's new culture chief has told The Scotsman.

Donald Wilson said the move would ensure more families can take part and it would give the city's residents more of a "sense of ownership" of the festivals.
The Herald reports that European migrants could hold the key to a "yes" vote on Scottish independence if a referendum can be held before Brexit.

The cheapest broadband prices shoot up by an average of 43% or £113 a year, after introductory deals end, Citizens Advice has said.

The charity said more than a third of customers were unaware of the price increases.
The rises amount to a "loyalty penalty" for customers who stay with the same provider, Citizens Advice said.
It has urged broadband providers to be more transparent about prices and said government should scrutinise the firms.
The £113 figure represents a five-fold rise on what customers were paying on average in 2011 to stay on the same broadband deal.
Four of the five biggest internet service providers had "loyalty penalties" as follows, according to Citizens Advice:
Virgin Media's 12 month plan was the only one that didn't impose a loyalty penalty when the initial term of the contract ended.
"Loyal broadband customers are being stung by big price rises once their fixed deal ends," Gillian Guy, chief executive of Citizens Advice, said.
"The government has rightly put energy firms on warning for how they treat loyal customers - the actions of broadband firms warrant similar scrutiny."
The Citizens Advice research also found that older people and poorer customers were more likely to be hit by such charges as they generally stayed with the same supplier for longer than other customers.
In the survey of 3,000 consumers, broadband users aged 65 and over were more than twice as likely as younger users to have been on the same contract for more than 10 years.
In March, an Ofcom report revealed that elderly people with a landline and no broadband at home had been hit the hardest by rising line rental charges.
BT announced price rises in January for many of its services, including regular and super-fast broadband.
Sky, Virgin Media and TalkTalk had also all put up their prices in the past 12 months.


Rafael Benitez has given Newcastle a Premier League lifeline but should have been appointed sooner, says former Magpies striker Alan Shearer.

Media playback is not supported on this device
Benitez, who took over in March, saw his side draw 1-1 with Manchester City to move two points from safety.
"There is a now a little bit of hope where there wasn't a few weeks ago," Shearer told BBC Radio 5 live.
"They should have got him in earlier. If they'd done that, I don't think we'd be in this position."
Newcastle earned a point at home to City after Vurnon Anita's first goal in more than two years cancelled out a controversial opener from Sergio Aguero, who headed in from an offside position.
The hosts almost won the game when Georginio Wijnaldum was denied by Joe Hart's late save.
The draw with City followed Saturday's victory over Swansea - Benitez's first win since succeeding Steve McClaren on 11 March.
His team are now two points behind fourth-bottom Norwich and one behind rivals Sunderland, who have a game in hand.

Shearer, who scored a record 206 goals for Newcastle over 10 seasons, said Benitez had changed the mood around St James' Park.
"Certainly on Tuesday's evidence and on Saturday's, there's now a togetherness," said Shearer. "The fans appreciate now that the players are giving everything."
Shearer said Newcastle had "given themselves an opportunity" and praised Benitez for his team selections.
"He's changed it and he deserves credit for that," said Shearer.
"It's taken him a while to understand his players, but he's left big players out. Aleksandar Mitrovic is out, Jonjo Shelvey is out. They're out for a reason. They've not given enough to the team.
Benitez, who takes his side to former team Liverpool on Saturday before the Reds' Europa League semi-final at Villarreal the following Thursday, said: "We have to try to win every game, it doesn't matter where.
"My connection with Liverpool is obvious, it's quite good, but hopefully they will do really well in the Europa League and we can get three points in the Premier League.
"At the moment, it's true that we are doing well, so hopefully the game away against a very good team like Liverpool, we can see the same things. But you never know.
"What we have is belief," the Spaniard added. "We believe now that we can fight, we can beat anyone and in the next games, we have to show that."

ITV staff are staging a 24-hour strike and planning a protest outside the broadcaster's annual meeting, in a dispute over pay.

Members of the technicians' union Bectu and the National Union of Journalists (NUJ) voted in favour of industrial action in protest at a 2% pay award.
Unions have been pressing for a bigger wage increase in view of the TV company's profits.
ITV said it was "confident" that viewers would be unaffected.
Good Morning Britain and the filming of soap operas are among the programmes could be hit.
ITV's pre-tax profits - including exceptional items - rose 39% to Â£605m for 2014.
Bectu general secretary Gerry Morrissey said staff were "very unhappy" with the pay offer.
"There is a huge disparity between the pay offered to staff and the bonus package to executives as well as shareholder dividends.
"Our members are helping to make the profits but are not sharing in them."
An ITV spokesman said: "We are fully prepared to maintain an open dialogue with union representatives following the ballot result, which saw 226 union members voting to strike out of a UK workforce of 3,000 employees.
"We have contingency plans in place to ensure that our programmes will continue to be broadcast and are confident that viewers will be unaffected by the proposed industrial action."


The creator of Brookside, Phil Redmond, is leading a bid to bring Channel 4 to Liverpool, saying "there could be no better home".

A government consultation is considering whether the broadcaster should move out of central London.
Mr Redmond said Liverpool was "recognised as the UK's second cultural city" and had always had a "pool of creative talent".
The move could create more than 800 jobs, he added.
A consultation into the broadcaster's future was launched after the government carried out an 18-month review of the publicly owned channel, which has more than 800 staff but fewer than 30 based outside the capital.
Mr Redmond has joined Liverpool John Moores University, the city council and the Liverpool Film Office to try and bring the broadcaster to the city.
He said: "Apart from Liverpool's growing reputation as a cultural centre... we have to remember [that] a lot of Channel 4's DNA was created in this city through Brookside and then through Hollyoaks, which at one stage was providing 60% of Channel 4's income... "
He said Liverpool did not have a "permanent broadcasting centre" like other major cities, adding: "We are talking about rebalancing the UK and rebalancing culture and rebalancing the news agenda outside of London. It seems like an obvious fix to come to Liverpool this time."
Liverpool is at the centre of the UK geographically, he said, "so it is closer to all the nations and regions [for commissioning]".
Mr Redmond, who ran Mersey Television for 25 years, added: "[There are] economic benefits obviously, if they bring Â£650-700m spend into the area - or the jobs attached to that- that is a big economic benefit.
"It would be fantastic for Liverpool but I also think it is the way to reinvigorate Channel 4 for its next 35 years."
The West Midlands Combined Authority launched a bid for the broadcaster to move to its region last week, with sites proposed in Birmingham, Coventry, Solihull and Dudley.
Elsewhere, two Bradford MPs have called on Channel 4 to move its HQ to West Yorkshire.
Joe Anderson, mayor of Liverpool, said: "Aside from world-beating locations and world-class creative talent, the character and the history of the city sits well with Channel 4's brand."
The government said it would consider all bids with the broadcaster "to ensure that Channel 4 maximises its delivery of public value".


A space observatory and a place where tourists can listen to whales singing has been proposed for a former Cold War site on the Western Isles.

Residents of Aird Uig on Lewis have registered an interest in taking over buildings at Gallan Head.
They were used by the RAF, and later the Ministry of Defence, during the Cold War then by Nato until recently.
The community wants to take advantage of the area's dark skies and marine wildlife.
It has been suggested that a hydrophone could be installed in the sea below Aird Uig to allow people to listen to whales.
Martin Hayes, chairman of the Gallan Head Community Trust, said he believed the observatory would be the first in the isles and the land involved could be purchased at low, or, no cost.
He said: "There will have to be an independent valuation but we believe the land is more a liability than an asset.
"The remediation costs are something like between Â£300,000 and Â£500,000. There are 14 redundant buildings on the site - we would use some of them."
He added: "The village was never told what the base was used for - it was all top secret.
"But we have to generate income to keep the village going and this is our chance."


The Church of England is to carry out a review of one of its former homes in Gravesend, where it is claimed children were forcibly drugged.

It follows a 2009 BBC investigation which found a former resident had been given drugs more than 1,200 times, at Kendall House, in the 1980s.
In 2009, Teresa Cooper told Radio 4 the feeling of being injected as a teenager was "like [your body] is just dying".
The Bishop of Rochester has set up an independent review into the home.
In a statement, the Right Reverend James Langstaff, said: "Over a number of years, a number of former residents have raised concerns about how they were treated during the time they were living at Kendall House."
He said he hoped the review would "make clear any outstanding lessons which the Church of England and others need to learn".
Ms Cooper said she was given major tranquilisers, anti-depressants and drugs to counteract side-effects while in the children's home.
Speaking to the BBC's Today programme in 2009, Ms Cooper said: "It is the worst fear you can ever ever experience as a child."
The programme found 10 ex-residents of the Church of England home had gone on to have children with birth defects after being forcibly given cocktails of drugs including tranquilisers, during the 1970s and 80s.
Ms Cooper left the home at the age of 16 in 1984.
In 2010 she agreed an out-of-court settlement with the Church of England, which did not accept liability.


Nine people have been arrested in an inquiry into the suspected smuggling of Iranian nationals into the UK.

In a co-ordinated operation, five were arrested in Greater Manchester in dawn raids on Monday, while a 29-year-old Iranian man was held in Northampton.
Another Iranian man, 29, was detained in Glasgow.
On Tuesday, a British woman, 46, and a 33-year-old Iranian man were arrested at Manchester Airport. All nine have been bailed pending further inquiries.
Home Office immigration officials said their investigation into the suspected smuggling ring started in March and had been carried out with French border police, Europol and Eurojust.
The five arrested in Greater Manchester on Monday included:
Dave Magrath, an assistant director at the Home Office's Immigration Enforcement, said: "Our investigation is targeting an organised network suspected of being involved in a complex and systematic attempt to evade the UK's immigration controls."


Olympic gold medallist Chris Mears has visited a fake golden postbox installed in his honour in his home village.

The cardboard postbox was put up in Burghfield Common by local postmaster Raj Odedra after Royal Mail refused to paint the actual postbox gold.
Dozens of villagers gathered to pose for photographs with the diving champion on Thursday.
Mears and his diving partner Jack Laugher won the men's synchronised 3m springboard event.
Resident David Gregory said he was "really excited" to have Mears visit.
"We were so impressed with how kind he was with the children. A real gentleman and a role model.
"He was handed cards, flowers and a huge signed Rio gold medal - signed by hundreds of the villagers."


Turkey is divided between those who are celebrating a win in a national referendum, and those demanding a recount.

President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has claimed victory in the vote, which looks set to grant him sweeping new powers.
This is what the major political figures are saying about the initial results on Sunday evening.
President Erdogan has claimed victory during a speech in Istanbul.
"This constitutional change today is not just an ordinary or simple change. This is the first time in Turkish history that the Turkish people have cast their votes on such an important constitutional change.
"In the past it was the parliament who actually decided whether to make any constitutional changes but today, for the first time, the will of the people has shown through this referendum and this is the first time in our history and very important
He also said voters abroad were a big part of the success.
"We would like other countries and institutions to show respect to the decision of the nation."
Prime Minister Binali Yildirim, who led the Yes campaign alongside Mr Erdogan, said: "This referendum once again has proven the level of maturity and the improvement of Turkish democracy to the rest of the world. We are all first-class citizens of our country and we are all equal."
He addressed supporters from the balcony at the Justice and Development Party (AKP) headquarters in Ankara.
"Our people made their decision and our people said yes to the presidential government system in this country and this nation will never face any guardianship, this nation will never face any external intervention and we will not give in to any threats. And we have shown this once again as a nation."
The main opposition, the Republican People's Party (CHP), has called for a recount.
Deputy leader Bulent Tezcan denounced "violations" in the electoral process. "We will pursue a legal battle. If the irregularities are not fixed, there will be a serious legitimacy discussion," he said.
The pro-Kurdish Peoples' Democratic Party (HDP), which has had two of its leaders imprisoned under President Erdogan, said the result would not be legitimate until an appeal was finalised.
"Our co-chairs being jailed, the referendum being held under a state of emergency, and other oppressive measures cast a shadow and legitimacy problem over the vote," HDP spokesman Osman Baydemir told reporters.
The Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) opposition party had internal fights over the referendum and expelled a rebel member, Meral Aksener, who became a leading "No" campaigner.
Leader Devlet Bahceli, who led the party's push for "Yes", said the result was an "undeniably successful achievement" and should be respected, according to Reuters news agency.
Ms Aksener is disputing the result.


Leicester City have been honoured twice at the BBC Sports Personality awards for their shock Premier League triumph.

The Foxes took Team of the Year and their manager Claudio Ranieri was named top coach after overseeing the remarkable victory.
Leicester started the campaign as 5,000-1 outsiders for the title after almost being relegated in 2014-15.
They lost just three league games in 2015-16 and have gone on to reach the Champions League knockout stages.
At the start of April, Leicester were seven points clear at the top of the Premier League. Exactly one year earlier, they had been bottom of the table, seven points from safety.
The Foxes started the season among the favourites for relegation and only the three promoted sides - Watford, Norwich and Bournemouth - were longer odds for the league title.
Ranieri, who took over from the sacked Nigel Pearson that summer, was seen as an uninspired choice by some fans and pundits after his predecessor had overseen a run of seven wins in nine games as Leicester escaped relegation in 2014-15.
The Italian's previous job ended abruptly when his Greece side lost to European minnows Faroe Islands during Euro 2016 qualifying.
Yet the charismatic 64-year-old's team - assembled for less than £30m and playing pacy, direct, counter-attacking football -  confounded the experts.

A campaign to register Newhaven's West Beach as a village green and protect it from future development has failed.

The Supreme Court ruled in favour of Newhaven Port and Properties (NPP), which is developing parts of the port.
NPP said it was pleased common sense had prevailed and it would take time to consider the decision's implications.
Newhaven Town Council described it as devastating news for residents who had used the beach for generations before its closure in 2008.
In a statement, NPP said: "The Supreme Court has confirmed that land which forms part of a statutory undertaking and is part of the harbour within the statutory limits and land which is controlled by byelaws, cannot be registered as a village green.
"NPP appreciates this decision will be a disappointment to campaigners."
To be registered as a village green, land must have been used by a significant number of local residents "as of right", for a period of at least 20 years.
But Supreme Court judges decided the public enjoyed "an implied licence", arising from the byelaws and therefore the use was not "as of right".
NPP said it was now focusing on its plans for regeneration of the port, which it said would bring much-needed jobs and benefits.
A separate Save Our Wave campaign is being run by local surfers who are concerned that another beach, Tide Mills Beach, will be affected by NPP development nearby.
Norman Baker, Liberal Democrat MP for Lewes, said: "The battle carries on. This is Newhaven's beach. People have grown up with this beach, they want it back.
"I am going to carry on until we get it back. I am going to see the port manager to try to negotiate access to the beach. This issue will not go away," he said.


Newly-found letters of the scientists who discovered the structure of DNA highlight tensions around this major scientific breakthrough.

Extracts from the "missing" correspondence are published in the journal Nature.
Maurice Wilkins, James Watson and Francis Crick won the 1962 Nobel Prize in Medicine for the DNA-related work.
But many others contributed, including Rosalind Franklin - whose efforts were called "witchcraft" in one letter.
All three Nobel Prizewinners worked in molecular biology, but in different labs.
Essentially, there were two main groups, pursuing the discovery of the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) structure: Dr Wilkins and Dr Franklin at King's College in London, and Dr Watson and Dr Crick at the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge University.
Besides strained relationships, the letters and postcards also give insights into the personalities of the key players.
The Cambridge team used some of Dr Franklin's results to build their first DNA model in December 1951.
This triple-helix model was wrong, and the scientists were barred from doing any further DNA work.
Dr Wilkins then wrote to his colleagues: "This is to say how bloody browned off I am entirely, and how rotten I feel about it all, and how entirely friendly I am (though it may appear differently).
"We are really between forces which may grind all of us into little piecesâ€¦"
But Dr Crick and Dr Watson appeared to be rather breezy: "â€¦cheer up, and take it from us that even if we kicked you in the pants, it was between friends," the pair wrote in response.
"We hope our little burglary will at least produce a united front in your group!"
The last phrase referred to strained relations between Dr Wilkins and Dr Franklin. When the latter arrived to King's College, her colleague thought that she would be working for him, but she believed otherwise.
This misunderstanding poisoned their relationship, and the tensions were highlighted even further in other letters.
Just before Dr Franklin was to leave King's College, Dr Wilkins wrote to the Cambridge scientists that "the smoke of witchcraft will soon be getting out of our eyes".
Explaining the situation to BBC News, Nature's commissioning editor Sara Abdullah said it added to "the canon of awful things said about [Dr Franklin]".
"I think 'sexist' is what we are groping around for.
"Obviously, this is a different time, it's 1953. There was personal tension; she was very unusual in being a leading woman in science at that time.
"And there were these different styles of working - all these things are captured there, in those few words."
In early 1953, Maurice Wilkins showed James Watson the famous "Photograph 51".
It was the crucial X-ray image of DNA made by Dr Franklin in the previous months, and it helped the two Cambridge biologists to develop the historic - and correct - double-helix model.
"To think that Rosie had all the 3D data for nine months and wouldn't fit a helix to it, and there was I taking her word for it that the data was anti-helical," wrote Dr Wilkins to Dr Crick.
"Christ."
And when the study was published in Nature in April 1953, there were only vague references to Dr Franklin's contribution to the titanic achievement in molecular biology.
The correspondence had been thought lost.
But it was found earlier this year by Alexander Gann and Jan Witkowski of Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in New York among papers that had belonged to another scientist, Sydney Brenner, who had shared an office with Francis Crick in Cambridge.


The civil rights group Liberty is urging parents in England to boycott Thursday's school census amid fears the data will be used to aid deportations.

Parents should refuse to disclose information of children's nationalities and birth countries, said Liberty director Martha Spurrier.
This information was included in the termly census for the first time in September.
The Department for Education called Liberty's claim "absolute nonsense".
Liberty and the campaign group Against Borders for Children wrote to all England's schools earlier this week, urging them to inform parents and guardians that they are under no legal obligation to provide these details.
In addition, the letter suggests that parents also have a right to retract information already given in the autumn survey.
Liberty says it fears that the data-gathering exercise will lead families "with uncertain migration statuses to pull their children out of school or fail to enrol them, robbing them of an education and putting their safety at risk".
The Department for Education is adamant that the data collected by schools would not be passed to immigration officials but would instead be used to assess the impact of migration on schools.
However, last month, leaked cabinet letters suggested that Theresa May, as Home Secretary in 2015, had wanted the children of illegal immigrants to go to the bottom of the list for school places, with schools carrying out immigration checks.
And information released later in December to the journal Schools Week under freedom of information law, also suggested that education officials had agreed to share the personal details of up to 1,500 schoolchildren a month with the Home Office.
Liberty says it fears that it is likely that the census information will be used to increase the "matching" of data between the two departments, leading to information such as family addresses being handed over.
Ms Spurrier called the policy "underhanded" and "a nasty new low".
"Every child on UK shores has a right to education - and that right isn't dependent on the accident of their own or their parents' place of birth," she said.
"Clearly we can't expect our ministers to stick up for children's rights.
"But to parents and guardians who believe classrooms should be places of learning, growth and hope for the future, our message today is clear: refuse, retract, resist.
"If enough people refuse to be complicit in building these foreign children lists, the government won't be able to justify harvesting this data."
The DfE said it had repeatedly made clear that the data would not be shared with the Home Office "and there is an agreement in place to this effect".
"The only reason we want parents to return this information is so that we have a clear picture of how the school system is working," said a spokesman.
"For example, being able to assess and monitor the impact that immigration may be having on the schools sector helps us ensure that we are allocating funds where they are needed, and that no groups of children miss out on the education they deserve.
"We take privacy extremely seriously and access to sensitive data is strictly controlled.
"However, the census guidance is clear that parents can withhold information on nationality and country of birth if they choose, and we wrote to all head teachers earlier this month to reiterate this."


Many of the poor children being left behind in schools now are in suburbs, market towns and seaside resorts rather than big cities, England's chief inspector of schools has said.

In a speech, Sir Michael Wilshaw said such pupils were often an "invisible minority" in schools rated good or outstanding in quite affluent areas.
He wants a new team of "National Service Teachers" sent in to help.
Sir Michael has praised big improvements in London schools.
And he says other big cities, such as Birmingham, Greater Manchester, Liverpool and Leicester, have also made great strides.
"Today, many of the disadvantaged children performing least well in school can be found in leafy suburbs, market towns or seaside resorts," he said in the speech in London.
"Often they are spread thinly, as an 'invisible minority' across areas that are relatively affluent.
End of the pier to dreaming spires
"These poor, unseen children can be found in mediocre schools the length and breadth of our country. They are labelled, buried in lower sets, consigned as often as not to indifferent teaching.
"They coast through education until, at the earliest opportunity, they sever their ties with it."
Sir Michael told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that many of the 1.2 million children in England on free school meals (FSM) were not doing well and that "two-thirds of these are white British children".
"Where the problems now are, are in schools, good schools, outstanding schools, in county areas, with small proportions of poor children that are doing extremely badly."
In a new report,  he said there were 15 local authorities where only a quarter of children on FSM achieved five good GCSEs including English and maths last year and that those with the poorest record on this were West Berkshire, Peterborough, Barnsley and Herefordshire.
Nationally, the average for all children was that 59% reached that level, while for children on FSM it was 36%.
He made recommendations aimed at closing the achievement gap between rich and poor.
"National Service Teachers", he says, should be employed by central government to teach in "schools in parts of the country that are currently failing their most disadvantaged pupils".
And he is calling for smaller, "sub-regional" versions of the London Challenge, the initiative which ran in the capital in the 2000s and is credited with turning around many schools.
Under this Labour policy, schools were encouraged to help each other, with successful schools, heads and teachers working with those in less successful schools with  similar intakes and circumstances.
The chief inspector also:
In England, the government has committed itself to closing the achievement gap.
Bridging what is known as the achievement gap is something all recent governments have pledged to do.
There has been some progress, but with a million children on free school meals (FSM) and the danger that many might leave school without good qualifications and end up jobless, there is a drive to do more.
This report suggests some children on FSM do badly at school because they have not had the best start in life and begin school with poor language or social skills, "not ready to learn". Their parents might have "weak parenting skills", they might be out of work or in poor housing, it says.
Without blaming parents, Sir Michael said exceptional schools could "make up for parental weakness", by giving such children extra help as well as high expectations.
He and others suggest this happens when there are systematic improvement programmes, high accountability and high levels of support.
The coalition introduced an extra payment for schools - known as the pupil premium - for each pupil who receives free school meals.
This was about £600 and is rising to £900 in September.
A Department for Education spokesman said: "Closing the unacceptable attainment gap between disadvantaged pupils and their peers is at the heart of our reforms. That is why we introduced the pupil premium, worth £2.5bn per year by 2015, to target additional funding for disadvantaged pupils.
"Ofsted itself has increased its focus on how schools use the pupil premium to narrow gaps in their inspections."
The spokesman added that other changes, to exams and the curriculum and the academies programme, would lift standards too.
Labour's Shadow Education Secretary, Stephen Twigg, said his party's plans were to increase collaboration between schools to improve standards, as Sir Michael recommended, but those of the government encouraged schools to "go it alone".
"This gap narrowed under Labour and Michael Wilshaw is right to say that our policies, such as London Challenge in which successful schools helped struggling ones, were key to this," he said.
"Labour will ensure all schools work together to raise standards for every child."
Mary Bousted, head of the teachers' union, the Association of Teachers and Lecturers, said the underachievement of poor rural children was not a new problem.
It had been highlighted in a 2008 report but had not been the focus of government attention "for too long", she told BBC's Breakfast programme.
One of the main factors was the isolation of schools and communities, particularly in coastal areas, where there were low wages, high worklessness, children not prepared for learning and children being moved in and out of schools, she said.
Such schools needed extra help and interventions, she added.
She also spoke of the "hidden" poor who were being taught in leafy suburbs among mostly children from affluent homes.
These schools often lacked the expertise or experience of inner-city schools of working with deprived children, she said.
Head teachers' association ASCL, said "parachuting teachers in to short-term placements" would be a "sticking plaster" and what was needed was a co-ordinated national strategy and the long-term support and assistance inner city schools had had.
Platanos College in Stockwell, south London, is one of the London schools to have turned itself around.  Some 60% of pupils there receive free school meals.
Deputy head teacher Michael Rush said that in 2000, just 11% of pupils achieved five GCSEs at C grade or above.
Last year, 80% of all pupils achieved five good GCSEs including English and maths, with teenagers on free school meals only a few percentage points behind at 77% - way above the average for pupils on free school meals nationally.
Mr Rush said: "If you look at our intake, we don't have an option not to target the disadvantaged kids as they make up a high proportion of our students.
"We have had to look seriously at how to close the gap and raise the achievement of all children."
He said the school's strategies included having good information about children's abilities through regular testing and then targeting them with the right support.
Children are grouped by ability and there is an emphasis on getting the basics of English and maths right, plus extra classes at weekends and in the holidays - especially for the GCSE years.
Mr Rush said data was important - with the school educating children and parents about the various levels - and that all pupils were set "very challenging targets".


Northern Ireland Secretary James Brokenshire is embarking on a three-day visit to Washington and New York.

Mr Brokenshire said he will brief politicians and business leaders in the United States on the political situation in Northern Ireland.
He is expected to hold bilateral meetings with senior political figures.
These will include Conrad Tribble of the US State Department and the US vice-president's national security advisor Andrea Thompson.
Former US Senator George Mitchell and various members of Congress will also be updated on the government's priorities in Northern Ireland.
Speaking ahead of the trip, Mr Brokenshire said that his visit "takes place against a backdrop of political stalemate in Northern Ireland".
However, he said it was a "timely opportunity to brief members of the US administration, who throughout history have done so much to support our efforts in moving forward the political process, on the current situation".
"I also want to reassure them that the UK government is determined to see devolved, power-sharing government restored," he added.
Mr Brokenshire will also discuss the "continued need for strong foreign direct investment" into Northern Ireland and to "offer reassurance on current issues including the UK's exit from the European Union".
During a reception at the Northern Ireland Bureau in Washington on Monday evening, he is expected to "praise the expertise and capabilities of Northern Ireland firms".
Northern Ireland has been without a functioning devolved government since January, when the coalition led by the two biggest parties, the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) and Sinn FÃ©in, collapsed over a green energy scandal.
