Question accordingly negatived. Proceedings interrupted (Programme Order, 1 April ). The Chair put forthwith the Questions necessary for the disposal of the business to be concluded at that time ( Standing Order No. 83D ). Amendment proposed : 4, page 2, line 11, at end insert—	8 Apr 2014	NO
Ministers have talked a lot about low incomes, and that is all very well, but is not the reality that the better off people are and the higher the rate of tax they are on, the more they benefit, so in fact higher-rate taxpayers benefit more than lower-rate taxpayers? The reality is that basic-rate taxpayers have benefited most from the measures that we have taken in increasing the personal allowan...	8 Apr 2014	NO

On the starting rate of income tax for savers, we are cutting a 10p rate, not doubling a 10p rate. That will mean that 1 million more people will no longer pay tax on their savings. Opposition Members will be voting against that. The personal allowance will increase to £10,000 this year and £10,500 next year. Opposition Members will be voting against that. Were they to succeed, the personal allowa...	1 Apr 2014	NO

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

We recognise that there are challenges with shooting badgers. That is why we issued best practice guidance that specified a range of less than 70 metres using a rifle, that they should target the chest, the type of rifle that could be used and that the animal must be stationary and over a bait point. It might be that lessons can be learnt from that to improve the proficiency of marksmen and we can...	13 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

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

My hon. Friend the Member for North Swindon (Justin Tomlinson) talked about how people can set up their own business, and how that is a real engine for social mobility, and how this Government are helping people through the new enterprise allowance. Under us, businesses are setting up at the rate of 2,000 a month. That is what we want—young people setting up in business, older people and women set...	5 Feb 2014	NO
“Patients requiring elective care will have the right, in law, to choose from any provider who meets NHS standards of quality at NHS costs”. If I am right, that is called “any qualified provider” or “any willing provider”, which is exactly what this Government have pursued. Labour’s rewriting of history is breathtaking. “pursuit of targets and financial balance at the expense of quality of care.” ...	5 Feb 2014	NO
Question accordingly agreed to. Lords amendment 112 disagreed to.	4 Feb 2014	AYE
against them could not possibly result in a conviction at trial. That means that the evidence against a person is so undermined that no conviction could be based on it. “a failure of the trial process”. The burden is not on the defendant to prove that they were innocent. In R (AH) v. the Secretary of State for Justice, the divisional court ruled that a miscarriage of justice occurs where an indivi...	4 Feb 2014	AYE

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
