Northern Ireland Elections ( 9 Nov 2022)

Kevin Brennan: I was surprised that the Secretary of State did not correct the hon. Member for Blackpool South (Scott Benton), who said that Sinn Fein MPs receive their salaries.

I served on the draft Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme...

Business of the House (13 Oct 2022)

Kevin Brennan: May we have a debate about the creation of an Ofsted-style inspectorate for Government Departments?

I have been dealing with the Home Office recently in respect of a student who is trying to come to this country to study. They have...

UK Energy Costs ( 8 Sep 2022)

Kevin Brennan: The former Prime Minister says that the Government have acted correctly, but the Government’s case is that energy prices are going up because of the war in Ukraine.
