Oral Answers to Questions — Home Department: Rugby Matches (Twickenham) ( 7 Nov 1996)

Mr Toby Jessel: I am grateful for that. Rugby football is a sport of great national importance, but is my hon.

Will he please ask the commissioner to ensure that the increase in the number of police...

Oral Answers to Questions — Health: West Middlesex University Hospital ( 5 Nov 1996)

Mr Toby Jessel: As the West Middlesex is a popular local hospital that gives first-class standards of treatment to patients over a wide area, will my hon. Friend, as a matter of urgency, give a fair wind to the splendid scheme under which the national health service would continue to own the freehold of the land and a 60-year lease of the buildings—and, of course, to provide free treatment?

Orders of the Day — Crime (Sentences) Bill ( 4 Nov 1996)

Mr Toby Jessel: I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Bury St. Edmunds (Mr. Spring) warmly for curtailing an enormously interesting speech. My hon. and learned Friend the Member for Burton (Sir I.

Prayers: Business of the House (24 Oct 1996)

Mr Toby Jessel: As the national lottery was mentioned a few moments ago, does my right hon. Friend consider that the time is right for a further general debate on that subject this winter—particularly in view of the national lottery's tremendous success in raising sums of money for the arts, the national heritage, sport and charities, which is a brilliant national achievement?

Dunblane (Cullen Report) (16 Oct 1996)

Mr Toby Jessel: Having myself lost a child aged five—although it was in a motorway crash, which is not quite the same—I know that no one who has not been through such a tragedy can quite understand what it is like. Perhaps that gives me some right to sympathise not only with what the Dunblane parents have suffered, but with their need to campaign for a change in the law, as I felt I had to do over seat...

Mr Toby Jessel: Would my right hon. Friend briefly give way?

Clause 148: Rectory School, Hampton ( 8 Jul 1996)

Mr Toby Jessel: Nothing is more important than the education, the preparation for life and the protection and safety of children. Currently 890 children, mostly from my constituency, are at Rectory school, Hampton. In September, there will be 950 pupils. For the first time ever in its 60 years, it is full at the point of entry for 11-year-olds, and has had to turn some children away. That results from its...

Oral Answers to Questions — Lord Chancellor's Department: Legal Aid ( 1 Jul 1996)

Mr Toby Jessel: Does not my hon. Friend's figure of £1.4 billion suggest that litigation is one of the fastest growing industries in Britain? Is it not growing much too fast onward and upward? Surely it is self-evident that, if people want to have a divorce, they should not have it at the expense of their fellow taxpayers. We are getting much too much like the Americans and it is time that something was...
