The members of the other family are Dale and Lorraine Coote and their daughter Megan, who are constituents of Mr. Deputy Speaker, the hon. Member for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich (Sir Michael Lord) , and very pleased to have his support. They have not touched the family courts, so all the documentation on and discussion of their case can be made public; there is absolutely no difficulty whate...	23 Feb 2010	NO
The NSPCC wrote to me at the beginning of February-in the public domain-after those issues were raised in the House, to say that it does not agree with the publication of full SCRs. In the letter, the NSPCC states that it believes "that the proposal does not take into account two important consequences: the possibility of further harm to surviving and subsequent children of the family; and the hes...	23 Feb 2010	NO
Question accordingly negatived. Main Question put.	10 Feb 2010	AYE
Will the Minister give way? If the hon. Gentleman will forgive me, I have a maximum of three minutes left, and rather than reopen the debate, I would like to reply to it. The hon. Member for Chichester was completely wrong when he suggested that the PBR is a make-believe document-that is a travesty of all the hard work done by many civil servants to produce it. He will be aware that its growth for...	10 Feb 2010	NO
Question accordingly negatived. Question put, That the clause be added to the Bill.	9 Feb 2010	AYE
Question accordingly agreed to. Clause read a Second time.	9 Feb 2010	NO
There are strong, principled arguments on all sides of this debate, and we have heard them from both sides of the Chamber this evening. The Government have made it clear that our objective is to enhance the legitimacy of the system, and I was glad that, in a good speech, the hon. Member for Cambridge (David Howarth) said exactly that. Others may seek different ends from their electoral system, but...	9 Feb 2010	AYE
May I just point out a mathematical fact to the Secretary of State? The leader of the Conservative party was not elected by the alternative vote, because there were only two candidates. That does not stop it being an alternative. To revert to my point, no Opposition Member can tell me the system for the election of hereditary peers, which they defended. The answer is that it is the alternative vot...	9 Feb 2010	AYE
and insert 'under'. Amendment 10, page 1, line 15, leave out 'by the Treasury under any of' and insert 'under'.- ( Sarah McCarthy-Fry .) Question proposed, That the clause, as amended, stand part of the Bill.	8 Feb 2010	AYE
"strike at the very heart of the individual's basic right to live his own life as he chooses." His colleague in the Supreme Court, Lord Brown, said: "The draconian nature of the regime imposed under these asset-freezing Orders can hardly be over-stated." The hon. Member for Cambridge (David Howarth) said that his amendment would make the Bill human rights compliant by deleting the reference to the...	8 Feb 2010	AYE
Bill read a Second time; to stand committed to a Committee of the whole House (Order, this day). Considered in Committee (Order, this day). I beg to move amendment 1, page 1, line 3, leave out ' 31 December 2010 'and insert ' 31 March 2010 '. With this we may take amendment 2, line 2, leave out ' 31 December ' and insert ' 31 July '. We have pursued that line through introducing amendment 1, as we...	8 Feb 2010	NO

From what I have read of that group, my hon. Friend's remarks are very worrying. The hon. Member for Wyre Forest (Dr. Taylor) spoke of the 111 system, which will be excellent. I am pleased to see that the pilots may be ready as early as May or June. He made a point about the BMA involving GPs in commissioning, but I would go further and look for more nursing staff to be involved in the commissioni...	27 Jan 2010	NO
To find the right response to the challenges that exist, including the demographic challenges, we must start with the right attitude. We must open our arms to an ageing society, not wring our hands. We need to be positive about how we can help older people not simply to get by, but to flourish and live full lives in times of both health and illness. Today, we have debated the dementia strategy-a n...	27 Jan 2010	NO
Question accordingly negatived. Question proposed, That the clause stand part of the Bill.	26 Jan 2010	AYE
Well, I have much greater faith in the British voter than any of the Conservative Members present. Can the Minister not see that, when it comes to many other aspects of this place, and in other fields, a period of time is provided for, in respect of the so-called revolving door? We do not want the Door to the Chamber to become a revolving door. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendme...	26 Jan 2010	NO
If the hon. Gentleman looks at his history books, I think that he will find that there was not a consensus about the NHS-very far from it. The Conservative party did not support it at the time, but I shall not take that historical analysis any further. If the manifesto commitments were expressed in those terms, I think that the other place would recognise that the will of the people had spoken. Sa...	26 Jan 2010	NO
I feel sure that the right hon. Gentleman has a different, unrelated point of order. Yes, Mr. Speaker, it is a wider point of order. The problem is that many Members of the House find the process extremely difficult to accept in any case. It would be helpful if the Government recognised that an explanation is owed to the whole House on matters of this kind. I am very grateful to the right hon. Gen...	26 Jan 2010	AYE
If the proposal became law under a Tory Government, that Government would be wholly in hock to their anaphylactically Eurosceptic tendency, with internal rows about what did or did not require a referendum. I can just hear the hon. Members for Stone and for Shipley (Philip Davies) condemning their Government for not holding a referendum on the slightest treaty that comes around. Even if I did supp...	19 Jan 2010	NO
They would have to ask for it. That raises an obvious question. Why do the Government think that this particular provision is at all desirable or necessary? Can the Minister identify any matter on which the Government may currently be defeated which they cannot bring back before the House at their discretion? No. The hon. and learned Gentleman makes a good point. As for my saying that it did not m...	19 Jan 2010	NO
Question accordingly negatived. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 31(2) ), That the proposed words be there added.	13 Jan 2010	AYE
Let us not forget the contribution that commercial businesses need to make to avert costs in energy and reduce their carbon emissions. We help with expert advice, interest-free loans and mechanisms such as climate change agreements and the emissions trading scheme. The right hon. Member for Suffolk, Coastal (Mr. Gummer) , who is no longer in the Chamber- Yes, he is. Ah, there he is! Thank you. The...	13 Jan 2010	NO
The hon. Member for Havant talked about progression, which is an important issue. He talked about the report of the right hon. Member for Darlington (Mr. Milburn) and the importance of trying to inspire apprentices to build their skills up to the higher education level. We have committed-again in the skills strategy-to introduce an apprenticeship scholarship fund from the autumn, and we are curren...	13 Jan 2010	NO
I am grateful to the Minister for his patience in giving way, but he again spoke about people with the highest care needs. We all agree that we should encourage as many people as possible to live at home and introduce a system to enable that-there is no argument about that. However, it is simply untrue that the Bill focuses resources on those with the highest care needs. Those who need residential...	12 Jan 2010	NO
Amendment 20 addresses the issue of carers. It would insert the wording: "Any process under subsection (4C) may not be contingent on the activity of, or acquiring, a carer." Even in a situation where carers would still be able to input their knowledge and expertise to design reablement packages, it would be difficult for them to be assured that that was being carried out appropriately if they were...	12 Jan 2010	NO
I also want to emphasise to the Committee-the hon. Gentleman acknowledged this in moving the amendment-that we have committed to reviewing the implementation of free personal care within the first 12 to 18 months of the policy coming into force. After that review, it will be possible to reconsider the predicted costs of delivering free personal care and the conditions for eligibility, if necessary...	12 Jan 2010	NO

Further, evidence does not suggest that outsourcing the forecast would improve its accuracy. The Treasury's fiscal forecasts since 1997 have been marginally more accurate than the forecasts for the UK made by many independent international organisations, such as the OECD, the IMF and the European Commission, and no more or less cautious than the range. Instead, the Government's approach is to stre...	5 Jan 2010	NO

The hon. Lady may still wish to respond, bearing that point in mind. I understand the concerns that have been raised, and we have looked into some of those raised by the Devon OSC. The PCN has confirmed that equipment to undertake open and minimally invasive procedures is in place in Plymouth. Additional equipment has been ordered, after discussion with a senior surgeon at the Royal Devon and Exet...	9 Dec 2009	AYE
Question accordingly negatived. '(1) The Secretary of State must, before the end of the period of three months beginning with the day on which the Act is passed, publish and lay before Parliament a report setting out an assessment of progress made towards meeting the 2010 target.
