Land Use in England Committee Report - Motion to Take Note (25 Jul 2023)

Lord Lucas: ...Government will come, even in the cause of multifunctionality, to encourage flowers on golf courses, which are at the moment a green desert but do not need to be. I cannot see that daisies on the fairway would be a great impediment to the noble game, which probably shows that I do not play it. We clearly need guidance from the Government on where they will allow solar farms. Allowing solar...

150th Open Championship — [Mr Philip Hollobone in the Chair] (13 Jul 2022)

Jeff Smith: ...spaces and is often naturally socially distanced. Back in the days when I used to hack around the public courses in Manchester, I was always socially distanced from my fellow players—and from the fairway. That aspect of the sport means that many people have been able to enjoy it as a form of entertainment and exercise with a low covid risk. In most places, golf courses reopened sooner...

School Funding — [Sir David Crausby in the Chair] ( 4 Mar 2019)

William Wragg: ..., because they all deserve a name check. They include: Romiley Primary School, Norbury Hall Primary School, Brookside Primary School, Torkington Primary School, St Stephen’s RC Primary School, Fairway Primary School, Ludworth Primary School, Mellor Primary School, Werneth School, Harrytown Catholic High School and Marple Hall School.

Improving Education Standards (29 Nov 2018)

Matthew Offord: ...resources raised into the schools programme. I was fortunate to end up being the cabinet member overseeing the projects, and I was proud to oversee the construction of several schools, including Fairway, Orion, Parkfield and Broadfields in Hendon, as well as receiving Beit Shvidler into the voluntary aided sector. It is important to note that the programme has ensured that since 2009 more...

Estimates Day: Department for Education ( 3 Jul 2018)

William Wragg: ...grateful to those who met with me—I may outdo the hon. Member for Harrow West at this point—including the headteachers of Brookside Primary, High Lane; Torkington Primary School, Hazel Grove; Fairway Primary School, Offerton; Mellor Primary School; Werneth High; and Harrytown Catholic High School. I am also immensely grateful to Jacqui Ames, the headteacher of Norbury Hall Primary...

Higher Education Funding (11 Oct 2017)

John Bercow: Order. I am inordinately grateful to the hon. Gentleman, but it is procedurally improper for him to veer off the centre of the fairway, which he previously inhabited. Questions must be to the Government about the policy of the Government, not general exhortations to other Opposition parties, but I am sure if he wants to have a cup of tea in the Tea Room with the Labour Front-Bench...

Scamming: Vulnerable Individuals ( 8 Sep 2016)

Julian Knight: ...got in touch with me, especially those that provided so much useful data and information, such as the Chartered Trading Standards Institute, Age UK, Financial Fraud Action UK, Standard Life and the Fairway financial consultancy. The cost of fraud to the economy is truly astonishing. According to the Chartered Trading Standards Institute, it amounts to £52 billion a year. Numbers can get...

Petition - Post Office Closures in Long Lawford and Bulkington: Economic Value of Golf (13 Apr 2016)

Karl McCartney: ...is all. Two foes fighting each other for control: the ultimate battle both physical and mental. I was recently informed that some view golf as a game played across a distance not of a course or a fairway, but of the five-and-a-half inches between the ears. It can be a sport as frustrating and rewarding as one wants it to be. Among all the preamble, I mentioned the report that I was proud...

Oral Answers to Questions — Scotland: Golf (Economic Contribution) (23 Mar 2016)

John Bercow: I am sure that that was a courteous tribute, but I hope the right hon. Gentleman will not object if I say that the first part of his question was way off the fairway.

Taxi and Private Car Hire Market — Question for Short Debate (20 Oct 2015)

Lord Selsdon: ...noble Lord, Lord Borwick, who will speak after me and whom until recently I failed to associate with one of my favourite companies, Manganese Bronze, which makes the cabs—TX1, TX2, TX3 and the Fairway, which I have always wanted to buy and own myself. However, there is a little more to all of this because the cab is iconic and the situation is very intriguing at the present time. Having...

Written Ministerial Statements — Treasury: Autumn Statement 2014: Measures with Immediate Effect ( 3 Dec 2014)

David Gauke: ...price which falls within each band, rather than at a single rate on the whole transaction value. The legislation also amends the rates and thresholds to ensure this change is introduced in a fairway. Corporation tax: restricting relief for internally-generated goodwill transfers between related parties on incorporation The Government are introducing legislation to restrict a company’s...

Scottish Parliament: Ryder Cup 2014 ( 1 Oct 2014)

Neil Findlay: ...the spectators, never mind that of the players. The Ryder cup had everything: the noise of an old firm game, humour, song, sportsmanship and dreadful clothing, and even a deer running up the first fairway in front of 20,000 spectators, wondering what the hell we were all doing in its front room. We saw golfing legends Tom Watson, Jack Nicklaus, Montgomerie, Olazábal, Torrance and others...

International Mining Industry ( 8 Sep 2014)

Eric Joyce: ...a false memory—my dad getting me out of bed at 4 or 5 o’clock in the morning to watch Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landing on the moon. They played a bit of golf and turned the moon into a fairway for a brief period. That seemed like the apex of technological advancement for a very long time, but when we look back, we can see that technological advances have continued on a remarkable...

Scottish Parliament: Ryder Cup 2014 (26 Sep 2013)

John Pentland: Before the member widens the fairway, perhaps I can add to what Mr Findlay said. I, too, have had the pleasure of playing with a blind golfer. When he teed off, he asked, “John, how far have I hit that?” I said, “How far do you want it to be?”

Uganda (Human Rights) (24 Apr 2012)

Geoffrey Clifton-Brown: .... At a recent meeting of the International Democrat Union’s Africa branch in Kampala, delegates—international delegates coming into Uganda—were harassed by the police force, which forced the Fairway hotel to cancel the IDU’s booking and attempted to force the Grand Imperial hotel to deny the IDU space. Last week, several people, including a 12-year-old girl, were injured and shops...

Wreck Removal Convention Bill: Second Reading (13 May 2011)

Lord Greenway: ...253 of the Merchant Shipping Act 1995 which empower Trinity House and the other two general lighthouse authorities to mark, raise, remove or destroy any vessel, "sunk, stranded or abandoned in any fairway, or on the seashore or on or near any rock, shoal or bank", in England or Wales, "or any of the adjacent seas or islands", where there is no harbour or conservancy authority with power to...

Scottish Parliament: Scotland's Historic Environment (11 Nov 2009)

Ted Brocklebank: ...golf. The building was formerly the Grand Hotel, which in its day was the premier hotel in St Andrews. It featured in the movie "Chariots of Fire" and has unbroken views of the Old course's 18th fairway and the famous west sands. The building has lain abandoned for the past six years and was repossessed by the bank after its American owners failed to develop it or even keep it wind and...

Orders of the Day: European Union (Audit of Benefits and Costs of UK Membership) Bill (20 Jun 2008)

Edward Leigh: ...to the UK. Payments to horse riding and breeding clubs were noted in Germany and Sweden. It is supposed to be a scheme to help struggling farmers. The UK authorities took the view that although the fairway of a golf course would not be eligible for a payment under the CAP, other land owned by a golf course could be eligible. But why is the money of the hard-pressed European taxpayer going...
