Northern Ireland Protocol - Statement (17 May 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, what assessment have the Government made of the collateral effects of other EU-UK matters that are under discussion and dispatch? This was strongly evidenced by the letter I received from Commissioner Gabriel on 29 April in response to my letter about the UK’s lack of accession to Horizon Europe. Commissioner Gabriel cited the present serious difficulties in the implementation of...

European Research Council - Question (27 Apr 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, the Horizon programme is actually very complex. It would not be completely easy for us to begin the programme, say, 18 months late, without some element of further negotiation. Are the Government already dealing with that on a “what if” basis or will be a further delay, assuming that the protocol is finally sorted out?

UK-Rwanda Asylum Partnership Arrangement - Private Notice Question (25 Apr 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, Section 25 of the CRaG Act defines the meaning of “treaty” and says that it is a “written agreement … between States”, as long as it is “binding under international law”. Given that the Minister has said that this is a written agreement between states, is she suggesting that the agreement with Rwanda is not binding in international law?

Veterinary Personnel - Question (23 Mar 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, there is a way of ameliorating the problem. Under the trade and co-operation agreement, there is a specialised committee on SPS measures. It has so far met only once, in September last year, but it could be very useful in dealing with this problem. What plans are there for the committee to meet again and discuss this problem?

Horizon Europe - Question ( 9 Mar 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, the noble Lord, Lord Hannay, referred to our letter. Our letter came after an evidence session, when it was clear that it was mutually harmful to science communities of the UK and Europe not to have the UK participating in the programme. That is not surprising, because the joint declaration, which is the foundation of this agreement, says: “The Parties recognise the mutual...

Trade Talks with India, Greenland and Israel - Question ( 9 Mar 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, Article 218 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union deals with all agreements between the EU and third countries. It says: “The European Parliament shall be immediately and fully informed at all stages”. Through this article, the scrutiny processes of the committee of this House were engaged. Why was this piece of EU law not retained?

Ukraine - Statement (24 Feb 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, I must say, it was good to hear of the strong co-operative approach with our European friends and neighbours; I very much welcome all that was announced today. Less good, however, was today’s news that one of the armoured columns started the morning in Belarus. The Belarusian leadership has been acting as cheerleaders from the side for Mr Putin on this. Can the Leader comment on...

Nationality and Borders Bill - Committee (5th Day): Amendment 158 (10 Feb 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, I must inform the Committee that, if Amendment 160A is agreed to, I will not be able to call Amendments 161 to 163, by reason of pre-emption.

Northern Ireland - Private Notice Question ( 7 Feb 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, the Secretary of State was due to travel to Washington tomorrow on what sounded like a very important trip. I wondered whether this trip was still going ahead.

Bird Control Licences - Question ( 3 Feb 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, I refer to my interests in the register. I am an organic sheep farmer, among other things, and we are worried all the time about crows pecking out the eyes of young lambs. We are also worried about pigeon families setting up in our sheds and causing disease in our organic ewes. Can the Minister confirm how important general licence 42 is to operations such as ours, to allow us to...

Health and Care Bill - Committee (7th Day) (Continued): Amendment 232A (31 Jan 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, the noble Baronesses, Lady Brinton and Lady Campbell of Surbiton, will be speaking remotely. I invite the noble Baroness, Lady Brinton, to speak now.

Health and Care Bill - Committee (7th Day) (Continued): Amendment 232 (31 Jan 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, the noble Baroness, Lady Brinton, is participating remotely and I think now would be a convenient moment for her to speak.

Health and Care Bill - Committee (7th Day): Amendment 222 (31 Jan 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: I thank the noble Baroness very much indeed. That makes it 15 all, I think. The noble Baroness, Lady Brinton, is participating remotely, and I invite her to speak now.

Health and Care Bill - Committee (5th Day): Amendment 78 (24 Jan 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: The noble Lord, Lord Howarth of Newport, is participating remotely. I invite him to speak now.

Health and Care Bill - Committee (4th Day): Amendment 50 (20 Jan 2022)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, the noble Baroness, Lady Masham of Ilton, is taking part remotely. I invite her to speak now.

the Earl of Kinnoull: The noble Baroness, Lady Brinton, will speak remotely and I invite her to speak now.

European Union: Border Control Checks - Question (16 Dec 2021)

the Earl of Kinnoull: On SMEs in the EU and the UK, our thoughts were twofold. First, the Brexit support fund was not fully spent because it had rather narrow confines. Secondly, does the Minister agree that the Brexit support fund and similar things should be redoubled to help our SMEs and that our old friends the trade specialised committees under the TCA should be fired up and meeting to try to ameliorate...

EU–UK Partnership Council - Question (16 Dec 2021)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, the very first of those declarations made that day concerned financial services. There was an agreement that, by March 2021, an MoU would be concluded to get regulatory framework co-operation. That has not happened, although there were some technical discussions. Will this declaration feature on a future agenda for the Partnership Council, as it is certainly important? Until that...

Animal Welfare (Sentience) Bill [HL] - Report (Continued): Amendment 2 ( 6 Dec 2021)

the Earl of Kinnoull: My Lords, I apologise to the House for having been detained in the Moses Room earlier in another debate. Much of what I might have said has been put far better by my colleagues who have signed this amendment, in the shape of my noble friend Lord Trees, the noble Lord, Lord Moylan, and my noble friend Lady Deech, who has been incredibly helpful. I thank them very much. I also found the speech...
