SMEs and the Net Zero Target (17 Nov 2020)

Scott Mann: ...businesses and community groups in North Cornwall that have set up to protect our climate, and I am sure that colleagues will have similar experiences in their constituencies. The post-covid, post-Brexit period will provide an opportunity fundamentally to adjust the way in which our economy works, and I suspect that many consumers will look at products and services for the future. We can...

The Economy (24 Oct 2019)

Scott Mann: I am proud that this Government have set an ambitious agenda that focuses on our priorities, not only in the short term but for once we have got Brexit done, setting out a clear vision for Britain on the issues that matter to people, such as tackling crime, boosting our NHS, and dealing with the cost of living. I pay tribute to the former Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for...

Oral Answers to Questions — Education: Further Education Funding (12 Nov 2018)

Scott Mann: .... As we approach the spending review, may I emphasise, particularly from North Cornwall, the passion and drive that we need to make sure that this money does go into further education? In the post-Brexit world we will be living in, it is more important than ever that our young people have the skills to benefit, so can we make sure that we push the Treasury hard on this?

Exiting the European Union: Withdrawal Negotiations (14 Jun 2018)

Scott Mann: ...s rejection of Lords amendments on the European economic area and customs union, will my right hon. Friend now head to Brussels with renewed vigour to support many of my constituents who voted for Brexit, and who want the Government to get on and deliver the result?

UK Fisheries Policy — [Mr Ian Paisley in the Chair] (27 Feb 2018)

Scott Mann: ...is currently working toward a new fisheries policy to be published in the next few months, and I hope that the contributions from right hon. and hon. Members today will help to shape that debate. Brexit and fisheries in general should be considered in two phases: the implementation period and the end state. I will put on record my concerns about how an implementation or transition period...

UK Fisheries Policy — [Mr Ian Paisley in the Chair] (27 Feb 2018)

Scott Mann: ..., we can create jobs, increase productivity in coastal communities and bring life back to some of the coastal towns that have suffered. It is also important that we consider the effects of post-Brexit trade deals on our fishing industry. At the moment, up to 60% of the fish caught in UK waters are exported to EU countries and further afield. I should imagine that the Department for Exiting...

UK Fisheries Policy — [Mr Ian Paisley in the Chair] (27 Feb 2018)

Scott Mann: ...from foreign boats off the 12-mile zone. It is important to me that, when Britain takes control of its waters, it sets its own terms of access. We want our fishermen to be confident that, in post-Brexit Britain, we will have control of our territorial waters and that we will be able to export our fish to European countries and further afield without tariffs. If we leave the EU without a...

UK Fisheries Policy — [Mr Ian Paisley in the Chair] (27 Feb 2018)

Scott Mann: I take that point. Tariffs need to be looked at within the context of our Brexit policies right across the board, rather than just for fishing or agriculture. If it is ultimately the case that the EU imposes tariffs on our seafood, there is an argument for Britain to become much more self-sustaining. We need to broaden our range and knowledge of seafood and encourage its consumption. I...

Backbench Business: Leaving the EU: Agriculture — [Mr Peter Bone in the Chair] ( 1 Feb 2018)

Scott Mann: ...to retrain and re-employ British people to do those jobs and to bring in EU or other workers if and when required. My main point is about environmental protections. I see big opportunities post Brexit for us to have a British agricultural policy that shapes production and improves environmental standards. I recently went out with the Westcountry Rivers Trust on a farm visit in my...

UK Relations with Taiwan — [Ian Paisley in the Chair] (24 Oct 2017)

Scott Mann: ...the UK share a love of free markets, aspiration and cutting-edge technology. In 2016, the UK and Taiwan did £5.85 billion of trade, and we hope to see that getting bigger and bigger in our post-Brexit era. We share a love of fine wine, fine food, whisky, cutting-edge technology, good bicycles and good cars. The UK also has 300 businesses that are based in and operating out of Taiwan, and...

Prime Minister: Engagements ( 5 Jul 2017)

Scott Mann: I thank the Prime Minister for introducing the trade, agriculture and fisheries Brexit Bills in the Queen’s Speech, which will be welcomed right across the west country. However, we are facing significant challenges with our rural post office network at the moment, with the transition from community branches to community village stores and community buildings. Some of those moves have been...

Regional Flags: Driving Licences and Number Plates (19 Apr 2017)

Scott Mann: ...be an independent sovereign state once again, where motor vehicles will no longer be under EU jurisdiction. The EU flag will disappear from UK licences and number plates. That not only symbolises Brexit, but provides us with a great opportunity to be much more inclusive when it comes to the flags representing different parts of our great United Kingdom. Post-Brexit, a standard UK driving...

Regional Flags: Driving Licences and Number Plates (19 Apr 2017)

Scott Mann: ...the flag of Anglesey, with its three yellow dragons. At this point, this is purely a debate. The Minister cannot go into too much detail on the prospect or any ideas that he has, because of the Brexit process, but I would welcome his thoughts and those of fellow Members. In conclusion, the United Kingdom is a collection of many different areas that have proud histories, identities and...

Microbead Ban — [Sir David Amess in the Chair] ( 8 Mar 2017)

Scott Mann: ...in the ocean. I take the issue very seriously, and as a rural and coastal MP I completely welcome any measure that takes plastic out of our oceans. Such action can be taken. Some people opposed Brexit on environmental grounds, but the Government can introduce environmental policy whether we are inside or outside the European Union, which is a very good thing. On the subject of plastics...

Microbead Ban — [Sir David Amess in the Chair] ( 8 Mar 2017)

Scott Mann: ...see the bags that used to fly around in trees. It has made a real impact, so we can create positive change, as my hon. Friend the Member for Taunton Deane said, if the Government are proactive. If Brexit means that our fishing industry changes, I would ask that we consider a fishing for plastic scheme. It would be a great opportunity for us to show our country’s environmental credentials.

European Union (Notification of Withdrawal) Bill: [2nd day] ( 1 Feb 2017)

Scott Mann: ...democrat and I say to those Members across the Chamber that it was an instruction, and I will vote this evening to ensure that it is carried out. To those discussing the question of a hard or soft Brexit I would say that there is no such thing. There is leaving, and there are different levels of remaining in. We have seen the effects of globalisation and EU integration in Cornwall over the...

Backbench Business: UK Fishing Industry ( 1 Dec 2016)

Scott Mann: ...they can put their case on what they are looking for and we can ensure that everyone, from the hook-and-line fishermen and the under-10 metre fleet to the bigger fleets, has a fruitful future after Brexit. A new British fisheries policy could look after hook-and-line fishermen, the under-10 metre fleet and the broader commercial sector, and I welcome that. The new changes to the fishing...

South-west Agriculture and Fishing (19 Oct 2016)

Scott Mann: ...the beating heart of our economy. I, like many, campaigned to leave the European Union to help our farmers and fishermen get a better deal. I believe that they have suffered under the EU and that Brexit will offer them more freedom and prosperity. South-west farmers manage 38% of Britain’s dairy herd and directly support over 8,000 jobs, with thousands more employed in the wider...

South-west Agriculture and Fishing (19 Oct 2016)

Scott Mann: ...that we balance the flow of migrant seasonal workers with the need to control immigration. I believe we can do both out of the EU. The National Farmers Union is in the process of drawing up its Brexit policy. One of its suggestions is the introduction of a seasonal agricultural permit scheme that would grant 12-month visas. A British agricultural policy should champion agricultural...
