Fundamentally in the end, I think those people who are speaking against the cap betray their own lack of confidence in their ability, should they wish to, to come to the House transparently and accountably and persuade the House— I have one minute left. No, I am not going to take any interventions; I am going to make progress. Those people who speak against the cap betray an enormous lack of confi... 26 Mar 2014 AYE
(5) The amendment made by paragraph (3) comes into force on 28 April 2014 . (6) Where, having been satisfied as mentioned in subsection (4) of section 99A of the Finance Act 1986, the Commissioners for Her Majestys Revenue and Customs have recognised a market as a growth market in anticipation of the coming into force of the amendment made by paragraph (3), that recognition has effect on and after... 25 Mar 2014 AYE
(2) The amendment made by this Resolution comes into force at 6 pm on 19 March . And it is declared that it is expedient in the public interest that this Resolution should have statutory effect under the provisions of the Provisional Collection of Taxes Act 1968. Question put, 25 Mar 2014 AYE
(4) Accordingly for that tax year— (a) section 21 of that Act (indexation of limits), so far as relating to the basic rate limit, does not apply, and (b) section 57 of that Act (indexation of allowances), so far as relating to the amount specified in section 35(1) of that Act, does not apply. And it is declared that it is expedient in the public interest that this Resolution should have statutory ... 25 Mar 2014 AYE
Some people have referred to this as the Lamborghini Budget. That may well be so, because there is one person in this Chamber who has shown that he can out-accelerate a Lamborghini. That is the shadow Chancellor in retreating from his predictions on the economy, such as the 1 million jobs that were never lost and the triple dip that never came. Is the right hon. Gentleman calling me a Lamborghini?... 25 Mar 2014 AYE

Will the Minister give way? A poetic conclusion was nearly reached; but before I conclude I give way to the hon. Lady. I understand that the Minister is anxious not to rush to a conclusion, but can he tell us what time scale he has in mind? I urge the House to disagree with the Lords in their amendment 1. I shall of course be disagreeing with the Government’s disagreement with Lords amendment 1. 17 Mar 2014 AYE
Question accordingly negatived. Proceedings interrupted (Programme Order, 10 March ). The Deputy Speaker put forthwith the Questions necessary for the disposal of the business to be concluded at that time ( Standing Order No. 83E ). Amendment proposed: 30, page 102, line 31, leave out clause 119.—(Andy Burnham.) 11 Mar 2014 NO
I am grateful to the Minister for some of the clarifications he has given so far. When he concludes his comments on new clause 16, will he confirm that the review of the guidance that he has invited me to chair will also consider the issue of consultation to ensure that it is genuinely pervious to public opinion and other clinical opinions in the area? I am happy to give my right hon. Friend that ... 11 Mar 2014 NO

Motion lapsed ( Standing Order No. 9(3) ). Motion made, and Question proposed, That this House do no adjourn.—(Amber Rudd.) As my right hon. Friend the Member for Barking (Margaret Hodge) has repeatedly argued, Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs is not tackling this problem seriously enough and “pursues tax owed by the smaller businesses but seems to lose its nerve when it comes to mounting prosecu... 5 Mar 2014 AYE

Question accordingly negatived. Clause 1 ordered to stand part of the Bill. 27 Jan 2014 NO
It does not exclude the organisation mentioned by the hon. Gentleman. He could argue that he was promoting European citizenship and integration by promoting the reform of the European Union. The article does not talk about signing up to the European Union. I have made it absolutely clear that the amendments would end up defeating the regulation. They would delay funding for important commemoration... 27 Jan 2014 NO
“showed me his gardens, which are for variety of evergreens, and hedge of holly, the finest things I ever saw in my life.” Motion lapsed ( Standing Order No. 9(3) ). Motion made, and Question proposed, That this House do now adjourn.— (Mr Evennett .) The Olympia was constructed from 1844 to 1846 and remains on site today. Let me return to Sayes court. When John Evelyn moved out in 1694, it was ren... 22 Jan 2014 AYE
‘(1) The Secretary of State must lay before both Houses of Parliament a report on the performance of all providers contracted to provide officers to perform the duties of supervisor or responsible officer as described in this Act after one year of this Act coming into force. (2) The report must include— (a) an assessment of the information made available by each provider to the public, and their a... 14 Jan 2014 NO
I am really pleased that the commission has been set up. The hon. Member for Penrith and The Border (Rory Stewart) is exactly the right man to lead on it, and I ask him to come over the Pennines as quickly as he can. He will be made to feel welcome in the north-east, because people there have lived through this, and although I am telling their story, I can never relate to it in the way they can. T... 14 Jan 2014 NO
Question accordingly negatived. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 31(2) ), That the proposed words be there added. 8 Jan 2014 AYE
That Labour councillor introduced an article 4 measure with immediate effect to prevent the conversion of more premises from other use classes to that of a betting shop. Let me quote that Labour councillor’s words on the Southwark council website— [ Interruption. ] She is a Labour councillor, and Labour Members might want to listen to her. She knows a lot more about this than they do. Councillor F... 8 Jan 2014 NO

Of course, competition for funding remains extremely high and the quality of applications is increasing all the time. For example, in the previous round of Inspired Facilities, Sport England received more than a 1,000 applications for about £55 million of funding when it had only £16.2 million available. If a club is unsuccessful in its application, Sport England offers individual feedback and sup... 4 Dec 2013 AYE
If we are seriously thinking of replacing about 15 GW of capacity with offshore wind and even gas, which is more expensive, it is hard to see how that would not put up energy prices. Of course it would put up energy prices both for our energy-intensive users and our consumers. Those Members who think that fuel poverty matters should give some thought about how they will vote this afternoon. I have... 4 Dec 2013 AYE

(a) before the end of the period of three months beginning with the day on which the time off was taken or on which it is alleged the time off should have been permitted, or (b) within such further period as the tribunal considers reasonable in a case where it is satisfied that it was not reasonably practicable for the complaint to be presented before the end of that period of three months. (3) Wh... 20 Nov 2013 NO
Will the Secretary of State give way? I am sorry, but I have to press on. I also want to deal with— Order. The Secretary of State is not giving way and he has very little time to finish. I also want to deal with the cost of the Reserves. The ratio is 1:5—the cost of training and maintaining a Reservist is one fifth of the cost for a Regular Army soldier. I will not dwell on the Opposition’s positi... 20 Nov 2013 NO
