Women in the House of Commons: Points of Order (12 Jan 2017)

Derek Twigg: On a point of order, Mr Speaker. I know that you are a staunch defender of Back-Bench Members’ rights, so may I ask your advice? A Government proposal to site an asylum hostel in my constituency has caused great angst and concern there. It is an inappropriate place. It is the wrong decision. In connection with that, I have been pursuing questions with the Minister for Immigration. The...

Derek Twigg: indicated assent.

Oral Answers to Questions — Transport: Business of the House (12 Jan 2017)

Derek Twigg: The Leader of the House is in denial. We need a debate, which needs to be led by the Prime Minister, so that we can ask her very pertinent questions about what she is doing about the NHS.

NHS and Social Care Funding (11 Jan 2017)

Derek Twigg: My hon. Friend is making an important point. The key similarity is that back in 1997, when Labour took over, the health service was in crisis, and it is again today. Is not part of the problem that people are having to go to A&E because they cannot get in to see their GP?

Mental Health and NHS Performance (9 Jan 2017)

Derek Twigg: The Secretary of State tells us that he has a plan and a strategy, so I assume that he is on top of all the facts, but will he assure us that he understands the scale of the problem by answering this question? As of the latest count this week, how many hospital beds were being blocked by people who could not be discharged because no facilities for their care were available in the community?

Oral Answers to Questions — Health: NHS Services: Winter (20 Dec 2016)

Derek Twigg: The problem is not just winter pressures but pressures all year round. The Secretary of State will no doubt tell me that the Government have now allowed councils to increase the precept to allow councils to fund it better, but the fact is that that is not enough money.
