Did you mean an murray?
Ian Murray: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs whether she expects any job reductions to arise in the Forestry Commission's offices in Edinburgh as a result of the proposed sale of parts of the public forest estate.
Ian Murray: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what guidance his Department issues to posts overseas on procedures to follow to authorise entry to a country for UK rescue teams which represent a registered charity.
Ian Murray: Further to that point of order, Mr Speaker. I was serving on the Environmental Audit Committee this afternoon. Given collective Cabinet responsibility and the admission of a national crisis, I wonder whether you could help us new Members of the House by saying whether, under the circumstances, Cobra should meet.
Ian Murray: What recent estimate he has made of the cost to the public purse of holding a UK-wide referendum.
Ian Murray: The Leader of the House will be aware of the Government’s programme to reduce regulations on business, but the Government’s consultative Red Tape Challenge website asks the public whether the Equalities Act 2010, which is primary legislation, should be scrapped. Can we have an urgent statement in the House if that is the Government’s intention?
Ian Murray: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what assessment he has made of trends in the level of economic growth in the last two quarters.
Ian Murray: I think you have just hit on the crux of one of the key policies here—
Ian Murray: You are highlighting a very important point, because what you are essentially saying is that—
Ian Murray: Whether he plans to provide further direct funding for projects to deal with legacy issues in Northern Ireland.
Ian Murray: My right hon. Friend talks about the complicated nature of this clause. Surely that flies in the face of the Government’s challenge to cut red tape for businesses. Does he have any comments on that issue?
Ian Murray: As always, my right hon. Friend makes illuminating points about what was in other manifestos. Not only did the Conservatives claim that they would keep the child trust fund for the bottom third, but things omitted from the manifesto, such as VAT increases and reforms to the health service, are now happening.
Ian Murray: With this it will be convenient to discuss the following: Government amendments 123 to 128. That schedule 13 be the Thirteenth schedule to the Bill.
Ian Murray: My right hon. Friend highlights the point of the Bill: the measures in clause 7 and in clause 63 are against jobs and growth because of the lack of production. Is that not another example of the Government’s obsession with clearing the deficit without thinking about jobs and growth?
Ian Murray: My hon. Friend is making an incredibly powerful case. The Environmental Audit Committee looked at this in great detail, and there is potential for the green investment bank also to provide subsidies to nuclear. We are, therefore, seeing a modal shift from normal generation of power to nuclear, based on public subsidy.
Ian Murray: Jimmy Hood’s body double, I was told.
Ian Murray: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what proportion of corporation tax received in Scotland was paid by banks and other financial institutions with headquarters in Scotland in the latest period for which figures are available.
Ian Murray: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will estimate the amount foregone by the Exchequer in a financial year from a reduction in corporation tax payable in Scotland of (a) one, (b) two and (c) three per cent.
Ian Murray: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what the timetable and scope are of his Department's review of the BBC World Service.
Ian Murray: To ask the Deputy Prime Minister when he plans to bring forward legislative proposals to enable the recall of hon. Members.
Ian Murray: If the will of the House this evening is carried and News International simply withdraws its bid for BSkyB, what steps will the Prime Minister take to ensure that the will of the House is carried and what steps will he take to persuade Rupert Murdoch to do the decent thing?
