Access to Migraine Treatment — [David Mundell in the Chair] (20 Mar 2024)

Caroline Nokes: I congratulate my hon. Friend the Member for Bishop Auckland (Dehenna Davison) on having secured this important debate. I am going to be a little bit cheeky: it is always a privilege and a delight to follow my right hon. Friend the Member for South Staffordshire (Sir Gavin Williamson, but I have absolutely no memory of him advocating radical and bold behaviour from the Dispatch Box when he...

Child Maintenance Service — [Sir Charles Walker in the Chair] (27 Feb 2024)

Caroline Nokes: As ever, Sir Charles, it is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship. I congratulate the Chair of the Work and Pensions Committee, the right hon. Member for East Ham (Sir Stephen Timms), on securing this important debate. The former Secretary of State, my right hon. Friend the Member for Suffolk Coastal (Dr Coffey), has made the point that when constituents come to our surgeries to...

Animal Testing — [Dame Caroline Dinenage in the Chair] (19 Feb 2024)

Animal Testing — [Dame Caroline Dinenage in the Chair] (19 Feb 2024)

Caroline Nokes: My hon. Friend makes the really important point that non-animal methods can be much more accurate than using animals in these experiments. Does he agree that companies such as Lush, which came to Parliament before Christmas to advocate for those methods, have shown the way in which, through science, we can do better?

Future of UK Capital Markets (30 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: I will call Alun Cairns to move the motion and then the Minister to respond. There will not be an opportunity for Mr Cairns to wind up, as is the convention for 30-minute debates.

Victims of Road Traffic Offences: Criminal Justice System — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (30 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: May I gently remind the shadow Minister that the title of the debate is “Victims of Road Traffic Offences: Criminal Justice System”?

Victims of Road Traffic Offences: Criminal Justice System — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (30 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: I am sure the Minister will want to leave a couple of minutes for the hon. Member for North Devon at the end.

Victims of Road Traffic Offences: Criminal Justice System — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (30 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: I repeat my request for Members not to sail too close to the wind when it comes to the sub judice regulations.

Victims of Road Traffic Offences: Criminal Justice System — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (30 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: Before I call the hon. Member for North Devon (Selaine Saxby) to move the motion, can I ask for the co-operation of all Members taking part in this debate in ensuring that they abide by the House’s sub judice resolution? That means that there must be no reference in debate to cases that are active in the UK courts, including inquests and any cases that have not reached the sentencing...

Victims of Road Traffic Offences: Criminal Justice System — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (30 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: As you can all see, many Members wish to contribute. I will not impose a formal time limit yet, but I ask Members to consider limiting their comments to five minutes or so.

Girlguiding UK: British Overseas Territories — [Mr Clive Betts in the Chair] (23 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: I congratulate the hon. Member for Strangford (Jim Shannon) on a brilliant opening to the debate. I will start where he finished—with a call for a solution. I know that solutions and suggestions for solutions have come forward from various guiding organisations within the overseas territories, such as setting up separate charities to enable them to continue. I will start with some comments...

Girlguiding UK: British Overseas Territories — [Mr Clive Betts in the Chair] (23 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: I am exceptionally grateful to the hon. Gentleman for raising that point, because it brings me on to one of my other visits during Parliament Week, which was to the regional headquarters of guiding in Salisbury. Having a region that stretches from Cornwall all the way to Hampshire is an interesting challenge, but that is what girl guiding does: it has big regions that manage to communicate...

Girlguiding UK: British Overseas Territories — [Mr Clive Betts in the Chair] (23 Jan 2024)

Caroline Nokes: My hon. Friend makes an interesting point. Every youth organisation has to refresh; it has to move forward and be relevant to the 21st century. In so doing, however, it must not cast the baby out with the bathwater. I am not sure that Girlguiding UK is taking the decision that the overseas territories are old-fashioned; it would be incredibly regrettable were it to do so. I think Girlguiding...

Backbench Business: Spiking — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (14 Dec 2023)

Caroline Nokes: I thank the Minister for giving way on that specific point. Music festivals—great. University freshers week—great. Will he work with his wonderful colleague at the Home Office to see whether we can have a roll-out to younger age groups, too?

Backbench Business: Spiking — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (14 Dec 2023)

Caroline Nokes: Thank you, Mr Efford, not just for calling me to speak but for stepping in after I stepped in earlier. This debate is an object lesson in multitasking. I thank the Backbench Business Committee for granting this debate and, of course, my co-sponsor, the hon. Member for Bradford South (Judith Cummins). It is always a privilege, particularly on this issue, to follow the hon. Member for...

Backbench Business: Spiking — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (14 Dec 2023)

Caroline Nokes: That is exactly the point. The Act talks about chloroform and laudanum, not Rohypnol, GHB or the various other date-rape drugs that are either dropped into glasses or injected into people’s arms or legs—other body parts are available. That is the stark reality and why the legislation has to be modernised. We have a 21st century problem and we need a 21st century solution to it. We know...

Backbench Business: Spiking — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (14 Dec 2023)

Caroline Nokes: Of course I agree with my hon. Friend. He is absolutely right. That brings me to the Home Office’s own campaign, Enough, which, people will be relieved to hear, is my closing point. A message I would like to give the Minister very clearly, which is driven by the comments I have gleaned from Spike Aware UK, is that it is not enough for the Enough campaign to focus its activities around...

Backbench Business: Spiking — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (14 Dec 2023)

Caroline Nokes: My right hon. Friend anticipates where my speech was going. On the Enough campaign, I think it is right to focus on freshers’ week, which is a particular area of vulnerability, but by the time young people are 18 it is too late in some instances. Many will turn 18 while they are still at school and college. The Government’s statutory requirement for relationships, sex and health education...

Backbench Business: Spiking — [Caroline Nokes in the Chair] (14 Dec 2023)

Caroline Nokes: I am pleased with the promotion.
