Levelling-up and Regeneration Bill - Committee (11th Day): Amendment 274 (24 Apr 2023)

Lord Young of Cookham: ...11 metre buildings”. The position for leaseholders in blocks of flats who have followed the policy of successive Governments and enfranchised by buying the freehold is also indefensible. Despite repeated commitments given to me by the Minister at the time that they would be treated as leaseholders and would therefore be entitled to protection under the Act, the Bill treats them as...

Illegal Migration Bill - Statement ( 8 Mar 2023)

Lord Murray of Blidworth: My Lords, I shall now repeat a Statement made yesterday in another place by my right honourable friend the Home Secretary: “With permission, Mr Speaker, I would like to make a Statement about the Government’s Illegal Migration Bill. Two months ago, the Prime Minister made a promise to the British people that anyone entering this country illegally will be detained and swiftly removed—no...

LGBT History Month ( 2 Feb 2023)

Anneliese Dodds: ...for the transformational change in LGBT+ equality that we have seen over the past 30 years. In this debate, it has again been remarked that we have the gayest Parliament in the world, but I repeat what I have said before when that comment has been made: no Parliament in the world is likely to contain no LGBT people, it is just that in our country people can be who they are and can love...

Rosie Winterton: ...of State must publish an annual report assessing whether the powers available to the Secretary of State and the registrar are sufficient to enable the registrar to achieve its objectives under section 1081A of the Companies Act 2006 (inserted by section 1 of this Act).

Responding to MPs’ Queries: DWP Performance ( 6 Dec 2022)

Peter Grant: ...from Members of Parliament. I was particularly keen that the debate title should cover not simply correspondence, but all forms of communication—or non-communication—because the Department’s repeated failure to put in place a reliable and efficient way for MPs and our caseworkers to phone with urgent inquiries and speak to someone who actually understands the case is a recurring...

National Security Bill - Second Reading ( 6 Dec 2022)

Baroness Ludford: ...hostile foreign Governments, including from China and Russia. But, as my noble friend Lord Wallace of Saltaire said, it is absurd to ask us to debate the Bill without publishing the redacted sections of the ISC’s Russia report, which the committee recommended should be released. As the NGO Spotlight on Corruption said, the Bill does not address the hole in the regime for keeping foreign...

Housing Market - Motion to Take Note (17 Nov 2022)

Baroness Scott of Bybrook: .... We spoke about that last night and I do not want to talk about it much more, other than to say that the Secretary of State gave a very clear Statement in the other place yesterday, which I repeated in this Chamber. That said that we will continue to review everything to do with this case and make the necessary changes to ensure that it does not happen again. I said that yesterday and I...

(3) The monitoring tool must be accessible on a national, regional and local basis. (4)...

Written Ministerial Statements — Home Office: Work of the Home Office ( 5 Sep 2022)

Priti Patel: ...basics, every neighbourhood in England and Wales will have a named and contactable police officer and league tables have been introduced for 999 call answering times. I removed restrictions on Section 60 searches that have been in place since 2014. These restrictions have limited when officers could use the vital power and decreased their confidence in deploying it. Since 2019, stop and...

Identity and Language (Northern Ireland) Bill [HL] - Report: Amendment 25 ( 6 Jul 2022)

Lord Caine: ...Baroness’s Amendment 27 seeks to give a further area where step-in powers could be exercised—namely, in relation to strategies relating to the Irish language and Ulster Scots as set out by Section 28D of the Northern Ireland Act 1998. As I said earlier today and in Committee, this is a separate undertaking from the legislative commitments on identity and language set out in New Decade,...

Public Bill Committee: Levelling-up and Regeneration Bill: Clause 28 - Procedure for direct conferral of general functions on mayor ( 5 Jul 2022)

Alex Norris: I beg to move amendment 36, in clause 28, page 23, line 40, at end insert— “(2A) Where the Secretary of State makes regulations to which this section applies they must notify all other mayoral and non-mayoral CCAs of this.” This amendment would require the Secretary of State to notify all CCAs if they make regulations directly conferring general functions on a Mayor. This is a return to...

50 Years of Pride in the UK (30 Jun 2022)

Anneliese Dodds: ...two years later, of course, our opponents proactively campaigned against that position on LGBT+ rights at the general election and then, as many speakers have said, followed Margaret Thatcher’s section 28, banning councils and schools from the promotion of homosexuality as, in those bigoted words, “a pretended family relationship”. It was, of course, the last Labour Government who...

Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill - Second Reading (28 Jun 2022)

Lord Collins of Highbury: ...and that will create a director for freedom of speech and academic freedom on the OfS board, as well as a new OfS registration condition on free speech, strengthening an existing duty known as Section 43. It also introduces a statutory tort, giving private individuals a right to seek redress for loss incurred as a result of a breach of Section 43, and so-called enhanced contractual...

GPs and Primary Care (North East Bedfordshire) ( 7 Jun 2022)

Richard Fuller: ...am and eventually gets through some 2 hours later. She is then told there are no appointments remaining that day!, and that she should phone the next day at 8 am to try again. This same pattern is repeated day after day. Hours and hours spent listening to a recorded message with zero result.” Another constituent wrote: “I am writing to you about the absolute terrible Healthcare...

Queen’s Speech - Debate (3rd Day) (12 May 2022)

Viscount Bridgeman: ...to a divorce by their husbands. At the outset, I pay tribute to the work of the noble Baroness, Lady Cox, who has been tireless in her efforts to improve the lot of this potentially vulnerable section of society. She is unable to speak in this debate as she has committed to speaking elsewhere in the debate on the humble Address. This is not an insignificant issue. In 2017, a Channel 4...

Building Safety Bill - Commons Amendments: Motion A (26 Apr 2022)

Lord Young of Cookham: ...to give enfranchised leaseholders the same rights as unenfranchised leaseholders. My noble friend has just explained the perverse incentive that that would have resulted in. However, inserting that section back into the Bill leaves the enfranchised leaseholders in the firing line for the time being. I will not repeat all of my noble friend’s “read my lips” speech, which we have heard...

Judicial Review and Courts Bill - Report: Amendment 19 (31 Mar 2022)

Lord Wolfson of Tredegar: ..., before taking this sort of decision and I suggest that we should afford coroners, as judicial officeholders, the same constitutional courtesy. Moreover, necessary safeguards are already in place. Section 4(2) of the Coroners and Justice Act 2009 is clear on instances where a coroner may not discontinue an investigation, including violent or unnatural deaths, or deaths in custody or other...

School Rebuilding Programme: Parental Leave and Pay (22 Mar 2022)

Paul Scully: .... That is why our parental leave and pay entitlements are so important. I thank those who have taken part in today’s debate for their thoughtful and insightful comments, as well as their repeated engagement with this important issue. I am pleased to say that this Government have support in place for both employers and employees on parental leave, to guide employers to do the right thing...

Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill - Commons Reasons and Amendments: Motion A1 (as an amendment to Motion A) (22 Mar 2022)

Lord Rooker: ...that into the long grass”, he asked, “How long is the grass?” and the answer came back: “Can you see the giraffe?” That is what I am trying to avoid. Amendment 58 seeks to place the new section after Section 114B in the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984. Section 114B(1) states: “The Secretary of State may by regulations apply any provision of this Act which relates to...
