Bullying and Harassment of MPS’ Parliamentary Staff (17 Jul 2019)

Kate Green: ...also undertaken the Valuing Everyone training, and I endorse the comments that we have heard about it this afternoon. I should add that I will be supporting the proposals in respect of non-recent allegations on which the House will be asked to vote later today. I thank the House for giving me an opportunity to update Members on the work that the Committee on Standards has been doing in...

Business of the House (27 Jun 2019)

Kate Green: This week, we saw a report of a leaked A-level maths paper. In my constituency, there have been allegations about questions being shared when one part of the country takes exams before the same paper is sat in another. Will the Leader of the House arrange a debate on the security processes maintained by school exam boards? The situation appears to be deeply unfair to students up and down the...

Privileges ( 2 Apr 2019)

Kate Green: ...order of the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee and, then, an order of the House itself to attend an oral evidence hearing. When the House referred this to the Privileges Committee as an alleged contempt, we agreed a resolution on process that is appended to our report. It is based on a resolution agreed by our predecessor Committee some years ago when considering the case of News...

Public Bill Committee: Immigration and Social Security Co-ordination (EU Withdrawal) Bill: EEA Nationals and the TOEIC test ( 5 Mar 2019)

Kate Green: ...had action taken against them without first being given the opportunity to resit a test with a different provider. Up to the end of 2016, the Home Office published data on its response to the ETS allegations. By the end of that year, there were more than 35,870 refusal, curtailment and removal decisions made in respect of ETS-linked cases. There were more than 4,600 removals and departures...

Bill Presented: Bullying and Harassment: Cox Report ( 5 Nov 2018)

Kate Green: ..., the House of Commons Commission has moved quickly to accept her three key recommendations: that the Valuing Others and Respect policies should be scrapped; that complaints relating to historical allegations should be heard; and that complaints by House of Commons staff against Members of the House should be determined through “an entirely independent process, in which Members of...

Royal Assent: Independent Complaints and Grievance Policy (19 Jul 2018)

Kate Green: I understand the concerns about people coming forward, but for non-ICGP complaints, we have had a system for several years whereby, as soon as an allegation is made and it is open to investigation, it becomes public, and there is no evidence that that deters people from making reports for investigation, so I urge the hon. Gentleman to consider the amendment sympathetically. It does not mean...

Royal Assent: Independent Complaints and Grievance Policy (19 Jul 2018)

Kate Green: ...Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Under the proposal by the Leader of the House, it would be impossible for anything to be on the record that would enable an innocent Member to rebut those allegations in the media. I urge her to consider the amendment, which, as I am sure my right hon. Friend the Member for Rother Valley (Sir Kevin Barron) will soon say, is supported by lay...

Sexual Harassment in Parliament (30 Oct 2017)

Kate Green: ...of mediation in the circumstances. Its use would be wholly inappropriate. Does the Leader of the House not recognise that this goes to the heart of the victims being believed when they make their allegations, and that it is important that that message is sent out loud and clear as part of this exercise that she is now undertaking?

Carcraft — [Hywel Williams in the Chair] (10 Jun 2015)

Kate Green: ..., perhaps the Minister will be able to answer later—now that the company is in administration, any customers who might have PPI mis-selling claims to pursue will be able to continue with those allegations and to receive any compensation if that is due?

Opposition Day — [9th Allotted Day]: Income Tax ( 5 Nov 2014)

Kate Green: That brings me to my second point, which is about how this growth, and jobs growth, is affecting—allegedly benefiting—my constituents. Ministers are very fond of asserting that work is the best route out of poverty and that the increase in jobs is therefore of benefit to working families. Of course, work ought to be the best route out of poverty, but the wage squeeze that we have seen in...

Oral Answers to Questions — Health: Topical Questions (21 Oct 2014)

Kate Green: The NHS Litigation Authority is piloting a new approach to improve feedback and learning in response to allegations of negligence. Will the Secretary of State say how patients can find out what feedback the NHSLA has given to individual trusts and how the trusts have responded?

Written Answers — Work and Pensions: Child: Maintenance (21 May 2013)

Kate Green: ...child maintenance cases under Phase Two of the new statutory scheme, where the Child Maintenance Service has waived the intended application fee on grounds of domestic violence, and where the alleged perpetrator asserts the choice to make the maintenance payments due direct to the parent with care who has declared she is a victim of domestic violence by him; and what regard such...

Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill: Schedule 1 — Civil legal services (31 Oct 2011)

Kate Green: Indeed, the Minister was more concerned to avoid the number of false allegations that he seems to regard as the major difficulty with domestic abuse cases. Opposition Members are far more concerned about the protection of vulnerable victims and believe that that should be the first and overarching priority. [Hon. Members: “Hear, hear.”] Finally, I want to say a little more than I was able...

Oral Answers to Questions — Attorney-General: Domestic and Sexual Violence (11 Oct 2011)

Kate Green: What recent discussions he has had with the Director of Public Prosecutions on the prosecution of cases involving allegations of domestic or sexual violence.

Public Bill Committee: Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishmentof Offenders bill: Clause 41 - Conditional fee agreements: success fees (13 Sep 2011)

Kate Green: ...where all of the following conditions are met— (a) the proceedings include a claim by an individual or group of individuals for damages in tort/delict or breach of contract; (b) the damage is alleged to have occurred in a developing country; (c) a judge of the High Court has certified (whether before or after the commencement of court proceedings), that— (i) the proposed litigation...

Public Bill Committee: Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders bill: Clause 9 - Exceptional cases ( 8 Sep 2011)

Kate Green: ...that he contact the law centre, which advised Terry that he should have been paid the national minimum wage for all the hours that he had worked, including the week during which the employer alleged that he was training. The law centre wrote to the employer pointing out the breaches of law and threatened to take a case to the employment tribunal. As a result, and without the need to go to...

[Mr Andrew Turner in the Chair] — backbench business — Work and Pensions (CSR) ( 4 Nov 2010)

Kate Green: First, let us be absolutely clear about the alleged deterioration in child poverty performance. It deteriorated in two years, 2005-06 and 2006-07, and the measures that were introduced in the 2008 and 2009 Budgets were already turning that position around. It is welcome that the Government have not decided to reverse those measures. I am pleased that they have retained the progressive...
