Mr Cranley Onslow: Following his successful visit this morning to the headquarters of the McLaren formula 1 team in my constituency, does my right hon. Friend agree that what counts is not who is ahead at the first corner, but who has the skill, expertise, stamina and nerve to see the race right through to the winning post?

Mr Cranley Onslow: On a point of order, Madam Speaker. Would it not help the House if you reminded the Leader of the Opposition that it is customary for him to sit down when you rise to your feet?

Oral Answers to Questions — Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs: Burma (15 Jan 1997)

New clause 4: Payments in Respect of Firearms Rendered Unlawful ( 4 Dec 1996)

Mr Cranley Onslow: I support my hon. Friend the Member for Weston-super-Mare (Sir J. Wiggin), and I agree very much with the right hon. Member for Tweeddale, Ettrick and Lauderdale (Sir D. Steel). I read the Committee's proceedings on clause 11 with some astonishment, and I was amazed by the specious argument of my hon. Friend the Minister of State in resisting the amendment moved there. Having read Hansard, it...

Mr Cranley Onslow: Is my right hon. Friend aware that evidence given to the Select Committee on Trade and Industry this week suggests that London Electricity would cut its investment programme if it faced a windfall tax?

Orders of the Day — Firearms (Amendment) Bill: Exemption for Collectors (19 Nov 1996)

Mr Cranley Onslow: I am grateful to my hon. Friend the Minister for her response to the amendment. I say to the hon. Member for Linlithgow (Mr. Dalyell) that a number of people in Surrey know a lot about rifles, pistols and handguns generally, and there should be no difficulty in obtaining expert advice from them. They are well skilled, extremely courteous and efficient in the way in which they have dealt with...

Orders of the Day — Firearms (Amendment) Bill: Trophies of War (19 Nov 1996)

Mr Cranley Onslow: I should be grateful if the Minister would clarify the point raised by the hon. Member for Linlithgow (Mr. Dalyell).

That implies that when the individual who acquired it has left this world, title passes away entirely, and is not inheritable under the terms of the Bill.

Orders of the Day — Firearms (Amendment) Bill (12 Nov 1996)

Mr Cranley Onslow: The headquarters of target shooting in Britain are at Bisley in my constituency. I have been involved with shooting ever since I was elected to the House.

I do not own—and it is a long time since I have shot with—either a revolver or a pistol, but I have many friends and constituents who do. Many of them...

Mr Cranley Onslow: Has my right hon. Friend seen the letter about the EC ban on British beef exports which a number of my right hon. and hon. Friends sent yesterday to all the EC ambassadors in London? Will he ask the Foreign Secretary to call in those ambassadors to ensure that they report accurately to their Governments on the great damage that is being done in terms of British confidence in the European...

Intergovernmental Conference (21 Mar 1996)

Mr Cranley Onslow: Since the Government published their White Paper, I have had one letter from my constituents on the subject. I do not know why I have not had more. I am sure that people are interested in Europe. Perhaps they hesitate to enter into a debate where such appalling terms as "subsidiarity", "variable geometry" and "acquis communautaire" are common change. I want to leave all the technical stuff...

Orders of the Day — Armed Forces Bill (13 Dec 1995)

Mr Cranley Onslow: I am not bidding, I hasten to say, for a place on the Committee but merely wish to ask my hon. Friend whether clause 2 could be applied to medical personnel. My immediate concern, and that of my hon. Friend the Member for Aldershot (Sir J. Critchley), arises from local anxiety about the closure of Cambridge military hospital, the extremely alarmist rumours that have been put about and the...

Bosnia (12 Jul 1995)

Mr Cranley Onslow: In view of what my right hon. and learned Friend said a moment ago about the French Government, is he confident that it understood in Paris that the UN forces are in Bosnia for humanitarian and peacekeeping purposes, not to get sucked into a war?

Mr Cranley Onslow: I wish to speak briefly on this group of amendments, in particular my amendment No. 119. I am grateful to my right hon. Friend the Minister for the Environment and Countryside for his patience and courtesy, and for the way in which he has dealt with this Bill and the improvements that I have tried to make to it. Also, this is the first opportunity that I have had to congratulate him on his...

Opposition Day: Bmarc (19 Jun 1995)

Mr Cranley Onslow: The Committee has not yet had an opportunity to discuss the exchanges that the hon. Gentleman has had. I hope that he will not presume to anticipate the Committee's collective decision.

Halifax Summit (19 Jun 1995)

Mr Cranley Onslow: When my right hon. Friend says—and it is welcome news—that there are to be measures to improve international co-operation against terrorism, may I take it that that extends to crime in general and not just to terrorism in particular? If there is to be a better system and one that is more effective and secure than Interpol, will he tell us any more about how it is to be developed and who...
