Recent appearances

• Public Bill Committee: International Freedom of Religion or Belief Bill 24 Apr 2024

  Good morning. Before we begin, I have a few preliminary reminders for the Committee. First, please switch electronic devices to silent if you have not done so already. No food or drink is permitted during sittings of the Committee, except for the water provided. Hansard colleagues would be grateful if Members would email their speaking notes, if they have any, to hansardnotes@parliament.uk....

• Public Bill Committee: International Freedom of Religion or Belief Bill: Clause 1 - Special Envoy for International Freedom of Religion or Belief 24 Apr 2024

  With this it will be convenient to discuss the following: Clause 2 stand part. Amendment 3, in clause 3, page 2, line 8, leave out “International Freedom of Religion or Belief Act 2023”, and insert “Special Envoy for Freedom of Religion or Belief Act 2024”. This amendment adjusts the Bill’s short title so that it refers specifically to the special envoy. Clause 3 stand part.

• Written Answers — Treasury: Employee Ownership 23 Feb 2024

  To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to his Department's call for evidence on non-discretionary tax-advantaged share schemes, which closed on 25 August 2023, when he plans to bring forward proposals on employee share schemes.
