Maria Caulfield: ...their doctors agree. Many women have done that, either to avoid the risk of rupture or to prevent it from happening if they fear that it might. The hon. Lady asked for an inquiry. As she mentioned, independent reviews have been conducted, expertly led by Lord Howe in 2012 and by Sir Bruce Keogh in 2012 and 2013. The Department has led a programme of work to ensure that the recommendations...
Alan Brown: .... I do not know why Labour sat on its hands about that. The Bill is an assault on devolution, an assault on workers and an assault on trade unions. That is why we oppose it and why we need independence to get away from this institution.
Bell Ribeiro-Addy: ...to call a general election so that we can give them one and they can have a good read of it.

Mark Francois: The Ajax programme has been so controversial that the Secretary of State personally commissioned an independent review by Clive Sheldon KC into the flow of information surrounding it. Has he yet received that report? When does he intend to publish it? Can he promise the House that he will do so in full and unredacted?
Rachel Hopkins: The initial headline findings of the independent review of the armed forces compensation scheme state that “the process is overly burdensome and even distressing for the claimant due to unreasonable timeframes and a lack of transparency.” That is but one of a number of concerns raised about the compensation scheme, all of which veterans across the country have been telling us about for a...
Dan Carden: The call for evidence for the LGBT veterans independent review revealed that the police records of veterans convicted during the ban on homosexuality were destroyed. In answer to parliamentary questions, the Department says that that was “in line with data protection”.
