Commons Chamber on 25 April 201725/04/2017

Ian Acheson, who reviewed this matter for the Government, told the Select Committee on Justice only last year: “I do not have confidence that the National Offender Management Service…has the capability or, indeed, if I may be frank, the will to impleme...

Affordable Homes

Commons Chamber on 24 April 201724/04/2017

I am expecting several Members of Parliament and Ministers to visit Delyn constituency in the next few weeks; will the Minister come with me to Flint, where he will see a Labour council building council houses for rent? This social housing is supported b...

Business of the House

Commons Chamber on 18 April 201718/04/2017

Will the Leader of the House confirm that in the event of a two-thirds majority not agreeing to tomorrow’s motion, the only way the Government could call a general election would be to table a vote of no confidence in themselves? When does he plan to do s...

North Wales-England Transport Links

Commons Chamber on 30 March 201730/03/2017

I am grateful for that answer, and the Minister knows that I support all of those initiatives, but will he consider the letter sent to him by Conservative and Labour Members of Parliament on behalf of the Mersey Dee Alliance and Cheshire East council aski...

School Funding (London)

Westminster Hall on 29 March 201729/03/2017

I am afraid, Mr Kane, that that is not a point of order for the Chair. The Minister is entitled to give way or not give way according to his own preference.

Westminster Hall on 29 March 201729/03/2017

I hope it is a point of order, Mr Kane.

Order. We have 30 minutes before the winding-up speeches, and six Members. That means five minutes each, if people can exercise self-restraint.

School Funding (London)

Westminster Hall on 29 March 201729/03/2017

As Members can see, a number of right hon. and hon. Members want to participate in the debate. I intend to call the Front-Bench spokesmen at 10.35. I hope that Members will show self-restraint so that everybody is able to take part.

Northern Ireland: Political Developments

Commons Chamber on 28 March 201728/03/2017

As one of the last direct rule Ministers for Northern Ireland, may I remind the Secretary of State that managing five Departments from Westminster is not a good form of government? History shows that when the Prime Minister and the Taoiseach engage with m...

Hereditary Peers

Westminster Hall on 28 March 201728/03/2017

Will the Minister please say after me—so that it is on the record—that the current UK Government support the principle whereby three people can vote for a Member of Parliament? Will he just say that for me? That is what he is saying.

Hereditary Peers

Westminster Hall on 28 March 201728/03/2017

I am not asking the Minister to break that manifesto pledge. Everything I have said would fit in with that pledge. I have talked about allowing retirements and not having elections. I am not asking for a change in elections; I am just asking him to look a...

Yes. Bruce Grocott was the Member for Lichfield and Tamworth originally and then came back as the Member for Telford in due course. Lord Grocott has introduced in the other place the House of Lords Act 1999 (Amendment) Bill, which says that we should stop...

Hereditary Peers

Westminster Hall on 28 March 201728/03/2017

The hon. Gentleman is seven minutes ahead of me in my speech. That is a very good point. I do not see this as a party political argument; I see it as a matter of central democracy. I will return to that point later. Lord Colgrain, who won the election...

Hereditary Peers

Westminster Hall on 28 March 201728/03/2017

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman; I knew perfectly well that that would be the case. I start by welcoming the Minister to his place and by saying what the debate is not about. It is not about abolishing the House of Lords; we will have views on that...

Hereditary Peers
