(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

Let us remember that the Investment Management Association has deliberately failed to include those items in its draft statement of recommended practice. Will the hon. Gentleman give way? I am always delighted to hear from the hon. Gentleman, but I must make progress. It is worth adding that the FCA sits on the working group that reviews the IMA’s SORP. To put the SORP of the IMA—the fund managers... 17 Mar 2014 NO
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
designs to unregistered designs would change? In a nutshell, does he think that more people would register their designs as a result of clause 13? It will obviously take some time for the system to bed in. Can the Minister give us a time scale? When will the evaluation take place and how long will it last? I do not want to give a time scale. The hon. Gentleman has already referred to one that I ga... 12 Mar 2014 NO
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
Question accordingly negatived. Amendment made: 8, page 96, line 2, after ‘individuals’ insert ‘aged 18 or over who are’.—(Dr Poulter.) Amendment proposed: 29, page 100, line 29, after ‘Authority’, insert ‘and the Secretary of State’.— (Mr Jamie Reed.) 11 Mar 2014 NO
Under this Bill, the HRA would be responsible for overseeing the ethical review of health and adult social care research. As access to patient information may involve the consideration of ethical issues, it makes sense for the HRA to make decisions on applications for access to confidential patient information for research purposes. If my hon. Friend will forgive me, I will not give way. I have on... 11 Mar 2014 NO
Question accordingly negatived. Proceedings interrupted (Programme Order, this day ). The Speaker put forthwith the Question necessary for the disposal of the business to be concluded at that time ( Standing Order No. 83E ). Amendment proposed : 19, page 81, line 27, at end insert— 10 Mar 2014 NO
will review evidence of concerns about local authorities’ commissioning practice to establish whether it is appropriate to ask the CQC to undertake a targeted review under section 48 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008. Getting the message out to commissioners that the powers will be used is important in itself to concentrate minds. They will be under the spotlight if they fail in their commiss... 10 Mar 2014 NO
(a) promote and safeguard the health and well-being of carers; (b) ensure that effective procedures exist to identify patients who are or are about to become carers; (c) ensure that appropriate systems exist to ensure that carers receive appropriate information and advice; and (d) ensure that systems are in place to ensure that the relevant general medical services are rendered to their patients w... 10 Mar 2014 NO
Question accordingly negatived. ‘(1) A person (“P”) who provides regulated social care for an individual under arrangements made with P by a public authority, or paid for by a public authority, is to be taken for the purposes of subsection (3)(b) of section 6 of the Human Rights Act 1998 (acts of public authorities) to be exercising a function of a public nature in doing so. (2) This section appli... 10 Mar 2014 NO
On new clause 24, local authorities are already under a duty to work with their local clinical commissioning groups and others through the health and wellbeing boards to undertake joint strategic needs assessments and to develop joint health and well-being strategies. Statutory guidance published in March 2013 makes it clear that these must be published and have specific regard to “what health and... 10 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

their rights and will continue to do so, but my conclusion is that I do not believe that imposing a travel ban on those promoting the Bill, which is supported by Ugandan parliamentary and public opinion, would achieve the results that he and my hon. Friend the Member for Reigate wish. Free, tolerant, open and inclusive societies are better able to fulfil the aspirations of their people. They are m... 12 Feb 2014 AYE
Further to the speech that my hon. Friend the Member for Bromley and Chislehurst (Robert Neill) made earlier, will the Minister confirm or deny that the Liberal Democrats stood in the way of a fairer deal for rural areas? There is more that local government can do to hold down costs. An example can be seen in the tri-borough initiative in west London, involving Hammersmith and Fulham, Kensington a... 12 Feb 2014 AYE
happens. Perhaps the hon. Gentleman’s hon. Friends can take note that he is struggling to make himself heard above the noise. I am happy to be ignored in perfect silence or to be heckled, but when the noise is so close, it is a little difficult to hear oneself think. One expects an element of quiet—perhaps it comes with being a schoolteacher. The hon. Member for Scunthorpe (Nic Dakin) , my neighbo... 12 Feb 2014 AYE
of jobs in the economy. He used the analogy of a rising tide carrying all boats, but it is business and private sector growth that makes that tide rise. We absolutely agree. My hon. Friend the Member for Bedford (Richard Fuller) made an excellent speech reinforcing the point that if we are serious about fairness, we must take seriously the issue of what kind of future our young people and their ch... 11 Feb 2014 NO
Question accordingly agreed to. Lords amendment 125 agreed to. 10 Feb 2014 AYE
We can debate whether we should replace the words “smoking in cars” with the words “smoking in enclosed public places”. However, the arguments that are made by Government Members are all too often the wrong arguments and they are being left behind by society, which wants us to move again. That is why I support the Lords amendments. Protecting children is one of the most important responsibilities ... 10 Feb 2014 NO

Amendment 79 was tabled by the hon. Member for Hayes and Harlington (John McDonnell) , who spoke movingly about it, and co-signed by the hon. Member for Islington North (Jeremy Corbyn) . The basis of clause 3 is utterly flawed, given that it sets out the idea that directions for removal within 14 days are somehow sufficient grounds to assume that bail should not be granted. On any common-sense ana... 30 Jan 2014 AYE
Question accordingly negatived. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 31(2) ), That the proposed words be there added. 29 Jan 2014 AYE
Under the previous Government, we had an approach that decided that Whitehall and the Secretary of State knew best. We had centrally driven initiatives, such as the national strategies, that included chunking and told teachers how they should teach. Rather than empowering teachers, they deskilled them. As the shadow Work and Pensions Secretary has said, that led to shocking levels of English and M... 29 Jan 2014 NO
