Environment Bill (28 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: I would be grateful if the hon. Lady could confirm that she welcomes the ambition in the Bill to be the first generation to leave the environment in a better state than it inherited, but does she also agree that that means that the Bill should reflect a non-regression principle—in other words, that our environmental standards should not fall below what we currently have?

Written Answers — Department for Exiting the European Union: Brexit (28 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, if he will publish a list of the stakeholders consulted in advance of the publication of the European Union Withdrawal Agreement Bill on 21 October 2019.

Prime Minister’s Statement: European Union (Withdrawal) Acts (19 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: I have always set out wanting to agree a deal with the EU that delivers the outcome of the referendum within the terms of the 2017 manifesto that I stood on. I have fought against an undemocratic no deal and always voted for a deal. In fact, I have voted for a deal more times than the Prime Minister. I have even voted for a deal more times than the Home Secretary, the Foreign Secretary, the...

Antoinette Sandbach: On that point—

Debate on the Address: [1st Day] (14 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: I am very grateful, because I welcome the Prime Minister’s opportunity to revisit the Marxist-style expulsions from the Conservative party. While doing that, he can perhaps look at moving HS2 out of Eddisbury, where he could save £100 million on the route and invest it in energy-efficiency infrastructure projects.

Business of the House (Prorogation): Baby Loss Awareness Week ( 8 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: I am grateful to the Minister for giving way. The really good evidence that was disclosed in the debate about the way in which maternal loss of babies can cause PTSD shows that there needs to be concrete mental health support for parents who have gone through this experience.

Business of the House (Prorogation): Baby Loss Awareness Week ( 8 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: It is always a pleasure to follow the hon. Member for North Ayrshire and Arran (Patricia Gibson), who has been a real support on the all-party parliamentary group on baby loss and who always speaks incredibly powerfully not only about her own experiences but about what needs to change in future. I am grateful, too, to the Leader of the House, who provided time for this debate, and to the...

Business of the House (Prorogation): Baby Loss Awareness Week ( 8 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: I absolutely do, and I shall come on to that. Having been through the system in Wales, where absolutely no bereavement care at all was offered to me—a charity set up by a former Member of Parliament paid for me to have counselling from Alder Hey—I am as aware as anyone of the issues around access to support. Some 130 NHS trusts have expressed an interest in using the bereavement care...

Written Answers — Cabinet Office: Brexit ( 8 Oct 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will publish (a) the most up-to-date version of the 1 August 2019 Operation Yellowhammer document and (b) the dates on which each version of that document was circulated; what the distribution list is for that document; and for what reasons the assumptions in each version changed.

Written Answers — Cabinet Office: Brexit (30 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and Minister for the Cabinet Office, what assessment his Department has made of the effects of the UK leaving the EU without a deal that cannot be mitigated; and what assessment he has made of the potential effect on the UK of those unmitigated effects.

Written Answers — Cabinet Office: Brexit (30 Sep 2019)

Prime Minister's Update (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: The Prime Minister is very keen to point out how to deliver commitments made during an election. He wrote to the One Nation group during his election to be party leader that he was not much attracted to Prorogation—something that he may reflect on now—and that he would seek to build consensus across the House. What undermines his negotiating position is that those watching from Europe...

Brexit Readiness: Operation Yellowhammer (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: On 19 August, I tabled a question asking the Minister to publish his no-deal planning, so I am very grateful for his invitation to MPs to attend his Department to view that. On 9 September, I received an answer to that question saying that due to Prorogation it was not possible to respond. I have also asked that the up-to-date Yellowhammer document be published and that each version of it...

Thomas Cook (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: On a point of order, Mr Speaker.

Thomas Cook (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: Will the Secretary of State join me in praising Thomas Cook employees who turned up for work on Monday to help to repatriate passengers? Will he make sure that the inquiries by the Insolvency Service take in the impact on Thomas Cook of the 20% depreciation in the pound against the euro, to help an assessment of whether other travel industry firms based in the UK are vulnerable to those...

Thomas Cook (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: On a point of order, Mr Speaker.

Thomas Cook (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: No.

Thomas Cook (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: It does.

Thomas Cook (25 Sep 2019)

Antoinette Sandbach: At the start of this session, the Secretary of State gave the impression that primary legislation could not be introduced in this House without a further Prorogation of Parliament and a Queen’s Speech. I seek your guidance on whether that is, in fact, the correct position.
