Poppi Worthington (20 Jan 2016)

Sue Hayman: As a fellow Cumbrian MP I am deeply shocked and concerned about this case, and I support my hon. Friend the Member for Barrow and Furness (John Woodcock) in his call for an independent investigation. I appreciate what the Minister is saying about the second inquest. The IPCC report appears to have been leaked to the press, which is of great concern. Poppi’s death was in December 2012 and...

Oral Answers to Questions — Culture, Media and Sport: Subsidised Satellite Broadband Programme (21 Jan 2016)

Sue Hayman: What recent progress his Department has made on the subsidised satellite broadband programme.

Oral Answers to Questions — Culture, Media and Sport: Subsidised Satellite Broadband Programme (21 Jan 2016)

Sue Hayman: Connecting Cumbria promised my constituents superfast broadband, but this has not happened quickly enough or to the original programme, which has denied my constituents access to vital services. What assurance can the Minister give that, under the universal service obligation, they will be provided with a minimum of 10 megabits per second by 2020?

Written Answers — Department for Communities and Local Government: Nuclear Power Stations: Non-domestic Rates (21 Jan 2016)

Sue Hayman: To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, if he will make it his policy to allow local authorities to retain business rates generated by new-build nuclear power stations.

Oral Answers to Questions — Prime Minister: Engagements (27 Jan 2016)

Sue Hayman: In 2013, the Energy and Climate Change Select Committee recommended extending the retention of business rates to include new build nuclear power stations. The Centre of Nuclear Excellence is in my constituency, and the new build at Moorside is vital for our economic prosperity. Given the Government cuts to Cumbria’s councils, does the Prime Minister agree that if we are truly to build a...

Flood Defences (Leeds) (27 Jan 2016)

Sue Hayman: One of the problems with flood insurance for businesses is the fact that they often have to pay huge excesses. It is not just a question of obtaining affordable insurance; it is a question of ensuring that the excesses are manageable.

Local Government Funding — [Philip Davies in the Chair] ( 3 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Davies. I will raise just a few of the significant concerns that Cumbria County Council has spoken to me about regarding the provisional local government finance settlement. I am sure that everyone is aware that Cumbria suffered very badly in the flooding before Christmas, but what people perhaps do not realise is that it is ongoing....

Local Government Funding — [Philip Davies in the Chair] ( 3 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: The fundamental point of argument, which I will come to, is about the way that funding is decided on need. That relates to what my hon. Friend says. Cumbria has one of the fastest-growing populations of older people in the whole country, which will put extra pressure on the council in the future. This is about not just the funding formula now but the proposals for future years, and that is...

Local Government Funding — [Philip Davies in the Chair] ( 3 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: The hon. Gentleman makes an extremely pertinent point. People who live in rural areas often have very low expectations of the level of service they should receive, so they often put up with receiving an awful lot less. That is not sufficiently taken into account. I will briefly touch on the topic of social care, about which my hon. Friend the Member for Leicester West made some powerful...

Written Answers — HM Treasury: Mortgages ( 4 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, what assessment he has made of the effect of mineral rights on mortgage lending.

Oral Answers to Questions — Scotland: West Coast Main Line (10 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: What discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Transport and Ministers of the Scottish Government on the effect on communities in Scotland of the partial closure of the west coast main line.

Oral Answers to Questions — Scotland: West Coast Main Line (10 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: I apologise for my lack of voice. The closure of the west coast main line has a huge impact not only on the economy of southern Scotland, but on Cumbria, too, as it is a strategic cross-border crossing on which many businesses in my constituency rely. I was pleased to hear the Secretary of State say that it will be open in the first week of March, as it is so important. Will he confirm that...

Written Answers — Department for Energy and Climate Change: Plutonium (12 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: To ask the Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, how much funding the Government has allocated to the continued assessment of options for plutonium management in the financial years (a) 2016-17, (b) 2017-18 and (c) 2018-19.

Written Answers — Department for Energy and Climate Change: Sellafield: Plutonium (12 Feb 2016)

Written Answers — Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: Dairy Farming (24 Feb 2016)

Sue Hayman: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, how many dairy farmers have gone out of business in each of the last five years.

High Streets — [Mr Christopher Chope in the Chair] ( 1 Mar 2016)

Sue Hayman: I am delighted to be able to speak in this important debate, secured by the hon. Member for Fylde (Mark Menzies). As far as I am concerned, high streets are only going to survive as long as the shopping experience they offer is better than the one offered elsewhere. To me, that experience includes an element of convenience, such as affordable close parking, which hon. Members have mentioned,...

High Streets — [Mr Christopher Chope in the Chair] ( 1 Mar 2016)

Sue Hayman: We certainly are. Despite all that has happened in recent years, Maryport still struggles. It has some excellent independent shops, but it also has a lot of charity shops, which have been mentioned, and too many empty units to be the thriving centre that it deserves to be. Last time I was there, a local shopkeeper said to me that she was fed up with people thinking that her shop was a charity...

High Streets — [Mr Christopher Chope in the Chair] ( 1 Mar 2016)

Sue Hayman: The hon. Gentleman makes an excellent point, and I completely agree. Cockermouth also has a beautiful high street. It is well known for speciality shops and art galleries, and its tree-lined Main Street has a statue of Lord Mayo, who was formerly the MP—he was later assassinated, so I am hoping that history does not repeat itself. What would I particularly like the Government to do? The...

Written Answers — HM Treasury: Inheritance Tax ( 3 Mar 2016)

Sue Hayman: To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether death duties apply to mineral estates; and if he will make a statement.

Enterprise Bill [Lords]: Bodies excluded from the restrictions on public sector exit payments ( 8 Mar 2016)

Sue Hayman: Does my hon. Friend agree that it is completely inconsistent to include employees of companies operated by the private sector? My constituents who work at Sellafield are very worried about the proposed redundancy cap. I am concerned that it will lead to highly skilled, experienced workers leaving the industry, which would undermine our ability to deliver the safe decommissioning of our...
