I thank the Minister for giving way. I think he was somewhat churlish in not acknowledging that many Opposition Members are also extremely grateful to those who work in food banks. When I went to my local church-run food bank, I found that the people there were not political; the one thing they wanted to tell me was how shocked they were that so many of the people coming to them were suffering fro... 18 Dec 2013 NO
Order. The Minister is not giving way. He has limited time, and we will hear him. Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. In the longer term, we need to do more to prevent people from ending up in hospital as a result of avoidable crises. As my hon. Friend the Member for St Ives (Andrew George) said, we need to make two big shifts. The first involves a move to a much greater focus on preventing ill healt... 18 Dec 2013 NO
Local authorities often work with residents, community groups and MPs to promote the best interests of residents in matters such as the siting of local health provisions and national infrastructure developments. If the Government’s proposals pass, the Secretary of State could use clause 39 to block such collaboration, ultimately to the detriment of residents. Time and again, the Secretary of State... 17 Dec 2013 NO
I did not get much of an impression of that in the hon. Lady’s contribution, but I give way to her. The Minister has also just repeated the ridiculous notion of the £3.8 billion for the integration of health care. That is not new money. It includes care— Order. I call the Minister. I note the position in Salford, and I recognise that finances in local government are tight. However, the Opposition ... 16 Dec 2013 NO
Question accordingly negatived. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 31(2) ), That the proposed words be there added. 4 Dec 2013 AYE
West (Geraint Davies) and for Sefton Central (Bill Esterson), and although I did not agree with much of the contribution from the hon. Member for Rochdale (Simon Danczuk) , it was thoughtful and entertaining in places. My hon. Friend the Member for Enfield North (Nick de Bois) recognised the massive deficit that the Labour party left at the end of their time in government and that the debate was v... 4 Dec 2013 NO
That is the second time the hon. Gentleman has talked about my timetable. The Opposition insisted on three days in Committee; we said they could have less. indicated dissent . If the hon. Gentleman talked to his own Whips, he might get some sense. That is exactly what happened. Second Reading and that the Opposition will vote for it this evening. It is important that we get the Bill through the Ho... 2 Dec 2013 AYE

Question accordingly negatived. On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. I am afraid that I must report an error in the number reported as having voted in the Aye Lobby in the Division on amendment 71, which took place at 9.52 this morning. The Ayes were seven, not eight as reported. (Laughter.) Order. I can tell by the reaction that we are all eternally grateful for the correction of the record... 29 Nov 2013 NO
Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I would simply say that I agree with my hon. Friend’s intervention absolutely. Does my hon. Friend agree that that is doubly disappointing, given how much respect and high regard the Minister is held in? My hon. Friend has made his point, and he is accurate. I wish to speak to amendments 84 and 64 in my name. I may want to press amendment 64 to a Division. Referend... 29 Nov 2013 NO
Question accordingly negatived. Before I call the hon. Member for Ilford South (Mike Gapes) to move formally amendment 51, may I say that I hope he will be successful in persuading his colleagues to vote and come out of the Lobby in a timely manner? If his efforts are unsuccessful, that might prejudice the judgment of the Chair in relation to future votes. Amendment proposed : 51, page 1, line 20,... 29 Nov 2013 NO

Presentation and First Reading (Standing Order No. 57 ) Mr William Cash, supported by Mr Bernard Jenkin, Mr John Redwood, Sir Edward Leigh, Sir Gerald Howarth, Mr John Baron, Mr Peter Bone, Jacob Rees-Mogg, Henry Smith, Chris Heaton-Harris, Mr James Clappison and Sir Richard Shepherd, presented a Bill to make provision for the supremacy of the sovereignty of the United Kingdom Parliament in relati... 29 Nov 2013 NO
The hon. Member for City of Durham (Roberta Blackman-Woods) made a point about child care and called for action from this Government. This Government are taking action on that matter, with tax-free child care, increased provision for two-year-olds and increased provision for three and four-year-olds. I would have thought that the hon. Lady welcomed that. I noted her welcome of this week’s announce... 27 Nov 2013 NO
Question accordingly negatived. ‘After section 89(1) (remote operating licence) of the Gambling Act 2005, insert— “( ) The Commission shall hold a list of persons who have registered to be excluded from remote gambling. ( ) It shall be a condition of a remote operating licence that an operator must exclude any person who has registered for self-exclusion with the Commission.”.’. — (Jim Shannon.) T... 26 Nov 2013 NO
Will the Minister give way? I want to make some progress; I have too much to get through. When I have made some progress, I will come back to the hon. Gentleman. I thank hon. Members for raising the important issue of sporting integrity and the need to ensure that operators have an obligation to report suspicious market activity. I want to clarify what the Minister has just said about the FCA and ... 26 Nov 2013 NO
“difficulties with some element of perceived bias”, but I think that such a question represents the best way forward. If Scotland votes yes in 2014, will the words “United Kingdom” have to be amended within the question? Will the question refer to the “remainder of the United Kingdom”? I invite the Minister to tell us his preferred wording, should Scotland choose to leave. Would “rump UK” or “rema... 22 Nov 2013 AYE

Question accordingly agreed to. Question put accordingly, That the amendment be made. 22 Nov 2013 NO
the machinery and influence of Government focused not on fighting Britain’s corner but on fighting Tory Eurosceptics. It is diplomatic nonsense. It is not worthy of a Foreign Secretary supposedly serious about fighting for our national interest. On the amendment tabled by our hon. Friend the Member for Glasgow North East (Mr Bain) , does my hon. Friend not agree that this consultation is extremely... 22 Nov 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
The hon. Member for Rotherham (Sarah Champion) mentioned role models and they are important throughout the STEM industries. Of course, there is the Inspiring the Future initiative, which I encourage hon. Members and those watching the debate to sign up to so that they can go into schools and act as a role model by talking about their careers and what they do. That will inspire the next generation ... 19 Nov 2013 NO
“the most family-friendly Government…ever”. “I cannot ask parents to accept such a controversial change with no real guarantee it will save them money—in fact it could cost them more.” While we welcome extra support for disadvantaged two-year-olds, one in three councils tell us that they do not have enough places to meet this policy. Childminder agencies are up in the air, with no clarity about ho... 19 Nov 2013 NO
