Subsection (4) says that if “the relevant local housing authority has not decided whether to inspect the dwelling-house or the common parts” or has decided to inspect them but has not carried out the inspection, or has conducted an inspection but has not decided whether to serve a relevant notice, or has decided to serve a relevant notice but the notice has not yet been served, in all those circum... 28 Nov 2014 AYE
The Chairman of Ways and Means took the Chair as Deputy Speaker (Standing Order No. 3 ). I beg to move, That the House sit in private. Question put forthwith, ( Standing Order No. 163 ). 28 Nov 2014 NO
My hon. Friend rightly says that it was this Chancellor who set that carbon floor price, causing considerable difficulties for our industries. We are still having to go through hoops with those industries to get the relief they need. My right hon. Friend the Member for Torfaen (Paul Murphy) stressed the importance to our manufacturers of remaining in the EU and the very real fear that the Conserva... 26 Nov 2014 AYE
economic recovery, but to make sure we never get into this mess again. That is why it is all about finding the right balance: between ensuring that those with the broadest shoulders take the biggest burden and ensuring the UK remains internationally competitive and open for business. The motion's final point related to creating new funds for health and care. Since 2010, the Government have increas... 26 Nov 2014 AYE

Question accordingly agreed to. Question put accordingly, That the Bill be now read a Second time. 21 Nov 2014 AYE
Members will be pleased that I intend to keep my comments brief. Our NHS is a monumental achievement and one that my party remains deeply proud of. There are many people alive today who remember what life was like before the NHS and who would never go back to a time when the poor could not afford treatment for preventable illnesses. That is the generation that truly understands what the NHS means ... 21 Nov 2014 AYE
The following Member took and subscribed the Oath required by law Mark John Reckless, for Rochester and Strood. I beg to move, That the House sit in private. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 163 ). 21 Nov 2014 NO
The hon. Member for Clacton (Douglas Carswell) , who has not returned to his seat, said that there was 100% agreement within his party. I hope he spoke to its economics spokesman before he made those comments, because he may find that that is not the case. I want to make a point about prima facie evidence. It is not a requirement under the 1957 extradition convention that requesting states provide... 19 Nov 2014 AYE
Question accordingly negatived. More than two hours having elapsed since the commencement of proceedings on consideration, the proceedings were interrupted (Programme Order, 18 November ). The Deputy Speaker then put forthwith the Questions necessary for the disposal of the business to be concluded at that time ( Standing Order No. 83E ). Amendment proposed : 10, page 134, line 36, at end insert— 19 Nov 2014 AYE
However, the Labour Government did not deliver that, perhaps because there are people for whom such arrangements work well, as we heard from the TUC during the evidence session in Committee. While there are undoubtedly problems with zero-hours contracts, and I do not wish to dismiss them, I think it important to introduce some perspective to the debate. Last year the Chartered Institute of Personn... 19 Nov 2014 AYE
environment that we can have prosperity, growth and indeed the environmental protections that she is so passionate about. I strongly support, and urge her to support, the deregulation target. Why does the Minister present regulation as always being anti-business, given that so many businesses are saying that smart regulation is good for a competitive environment? Of course, if we can achieve the r... 18 Nov 2014 AYE
This amendment provides that all regulations under the Part, other than regulations under section 61(1)(c), are subject to affirmative resolution procedure. Amendment 58, page 49, line 5, at end insert— ‘( ) If a draft of an instrument containing regulations under section (Power to grant exemptions from Pubs Code) would, apart from this subsection, be treated for the purposes of the Standing Order... 18 Nov 2014 AYE
“It is right that we make the new scheme consistent with the current framework.”––[Official Report, Child care Payments Public Bill Committee, 23 October 2014 ; c. 192 .] I urge her to reconsider her decision not to increase support for parents of disabled children. She can help today by increasing the maximum age at which disabled children become eligible for the tax-free child care scheme—and, i... 17 Nov 2014 AYE
Division 79 10 Nov 2014 AYE
such as having a multiple-negotiated outcome, rather than the European arrest warrant. We will not be able to talk about the other implications of Europol and Eurojust for the actions of the European Court and the ability of the Home Secretary to pass laws that protect us. All in all, I think that this is a very unfortunate outcome for Parliament today—a very clever parliamentary trick, but very p... 10 Nov 2014 AYE
Secretary promised a debate on the European arrest warrant and promised a vote on it, and she has not given it. Do you agree that that is not a reply to a business motion debate? I think I have set out the position clearly and there is nothing at this stage for me to add, but Members will form their own view. That is the fairest thing I can say—Members will form their own view. I think I am right ... 10 Nov 2014 NO
My hon. Friend is absolutely right. She makes a point that she and other Labour Members have been fighting for. This Government are bequeathing the people of England a fractured landscape in the NHS, in skills and in transport, but we are embarking on a journey to empower people and places across England to work together, and we are placing the bus at the centre of that, as has been done so well i... 5 Nov 2014 AYE
(a) the extent to which the current legislation governing prostitution in England and Wales acts as an effective deterrent to demand for sexual services from exploited persons; (b) the extent to which the current legislation governing prostitution in England and Wales enables effective enforcement action against those trafficking people for sexual exploitation; and (c) the extent to which alternat... 4 Nov 2014 AYE
Question accordingly negatived. Proceedings interrupted (Programme Order, this day). The Deputy Speaker put forthwith the Questions necessary for the disposal of the business to be concluded at that time ( Standing Order No. 83E ) New Clause 2 4 Nov 2014 AYE
I am encouraged that the Minister says her mind is open and that there will be further consideration. Can hon. Members take that as a distinct hint for more progress in the Lords? If my right hon. Friend will allow me to continue my comments, I will speak first about new clause 1. The new clause would open the way for the GLA’s remit to be extended to any area of work or sector, which would be a m... 4 Nov 2014 AYE
(2) A person may be in a situation of exploitation whether or not— (a) escape from the situation is practically possible for the person; or (b) the person has attempted to escape from the situation. (3) The consent or apparent consent of the person of the exploitation is irrelevant where any of the means set forth in section 9(1) has been used.’— (Diana Johnson.) Brought up. 4 Nov 2014 AYE
Despite the Crown Prosecution Service guidelines, children are still prosecuted. It should be an imperative for us in this legislation to stop that from occurring in the future, and this Bill provides us with an opportunity to do that. I point out to the Minister that in July the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child urged the Government, in relation to trafficked children and to all children co... 4 Nov 2014 AYE
