Recent appearances

  • Chagos Islands - Question 2 Apr 2025

    My Lords, there has been a great deal of chatter over the past few days to the effect that President Trump has approved a Chagos deal. Can the Minister advise us whether that is true? Also, whether it is true or not, is the Government’s expectation that the Americans will pay or at least make a significant contribution towards the rent?
  • Universities: Financial Sustainability - Question 21 May 2024

    My Lords, does the Minister not think that perhaps the time has come to increase the cap? The ÂŁ9,250 has been in place now for many years, and the only way that many universities are able to make it work is by charging some extortionate fees at the graduate non-regulated level.
  • Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps - Question 29 Nov 2023

    My Lords, on the question of the possible involvement of the IRGC on the appalling weekend of 7 October, is the Minister aware of reports at the time of Farsi having been spoken during the intrusion from Gaza into Israel? If that is correct, the implication is plain that the relationship between Hamas and the IRGC is a very strong and rather distressing one.
