(b) the transaction is effected in consequence of the exercise on or after that date of any option, right of pre-emption or similar right, or (c) it is a land transaction and on or after that date there is an assignment (or assignation), subsale or other transaction relating to the whole or part of the subject-matter of the contract as a result of which a person other than the purchaser under the ... 30 Mar 2010 AYE
(2) The amendment made by paragraph (1) has effect in relation to cases where the application for the amusement machine licence is received by the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs after 4 pm on 26 March 2010 . 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 Taxe... 30 Mar 2010 AYE
(a) in paragraph (c) (motorbicycle which has engine with cylinder capacity exceeding 400cc but not exceeding 600cc), for "£48" substitute "£50", and (b) in paragraph (d) (motorcycle not within any of paragraphs (a) to (c)), for "£66" substitute "£70".

5. Stamp duty land tax (relief for first-time buyers) 30 Mar 2010 AYE
Question accordingly agreed to. Question put, 30 Mar 2010 AYE
Difficult decisions will be demanded of us, but we will approach that challenge determined to protect vital front-line services-in health, education and police numbers-while we bring borrowing down. Because we blunted the force of the recession, our tax receipts are better than expected. Borrowing this year is £11 billion lower, but our plan to halve the deficit will continue at the same pace. We ... 30 Mar 2010 AYE

I accept everything that the Minister is saying, but EC regulation 1107/2006 is being reviewed. Is that not an opportunity to use the regulation itself, or an addendum to it, to make it absolutely clear that airlines are expected to allow people to bring on board their own personal oxygen cylinders or concentrators for use in the cabin? Surely that is an issue that can be cleared up this year. My ... 17 Mar 2010 AYE
Question accordingly negatived. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 31(2) ), That the proposed words be there added. 16 Mar 2010 AYE
Whatever Ministers' motives, they have done for Britain what Philip Larkin said our parents do to us all. Strangely, they have let down the parents as much as their children. All those ambitions frustrated by a cut in the number of university places-more than a quarter of a million will miss out this year. For that reason alone, it is time to change. It is time to dare to dream again of a change f... 16 Mar 2010 NO
I also hope that amendment 25 to clause 9 will find favour. Clause 9(2) provides: "If the offence is proved to have been committed by, or with the consent or connivance of, or to be attributable to any neglect on the part of...any director, manager or secretary of the body corporate, or...any person who was purporting to act in any such capacity", that person "is guilty of the offence and liable t... 12 Mar 2010 NO
Generally, I think the Bill is probably a good thing. It is unlikely to become law, but at least it raises the relevant issues and makes people more aware of what is going on. I very much hope, however, that the Government and the promoter of the Bill, the hon. Member for Cardiff, North (Julie Morgan) , will feel able to accept new clause 1. We would then be able to protect all the public, not jus... 12 Mar 2010 NO
The Second Deputy Chairman of Ways and Means took the Chair as Deputy Speaker ( Standing Order No. 3 ). I beg to move, That the House sit in private. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 163 ). 12 Mar 2010 NO
I believe that MPs and Ministers are right to protest in their local areas if they feel the need to. As to marches, we on this side of the House are very good at marching, because we have had years of experience of marching to save our NHS. A local decision will involve the local MP, and he or she may be a Minister. The local NHS will involve patients, carers, the public and other key partners. Th... 9 Mar 2010 NO
Does it not surprise the hon. Gentleman that the Government never held any proper consultation with local authorities in order to discover whether this was a power that they wanted? Does not one usually ask people whether they want a power before one announces that the power is to be given to them? My hon. Friend asked a specific question about petitions. I am able to confirm that where a petition... 8 Mar 2010 NO
My hon. Friend the Member for Hendon (Mr. Dismore) commented on the views of the Joint Committee on Human Rights and has tabled some amendments, to which I shall speak shortly. The right hon. and learned Member for Sleaford and North Hykeham (Mr. Hogg) made a thoughtful speech that summarised some of the dilemmas that we face in balancing the need to protect our citizens with the need to gain thei... 8 Mar 2010 NO
I shall not detain the House any further, Mr. Deputy Speaker. Thank you for allowing me to make a brief contribution. I look forward to hearing the Minister's reply. The Crown Estate has a very strong sense of its responsibilities as steward of public resources. It manages its property assets as a trust and is conscious of who owns the assets it manages and who receives the income. I hope that I c... 4 Mar 2010 AYE
In addition, the Lord Chancellor should understand, in respect of his answer to me, that there is a proposal from the Wright Committee for speech-length restrictions on Report. We could get through the business that is before us much more quickly without the need for knives, or at least by having knives for any proposal that was multi-consenting, as it were, without the need for them late in proce... 2 Mar 2010 AYE
(a) the charges payable to Regional Counting Officers in connection with a referendum held on the voting system for parliamentary elections, and (b) sums payable in respect of increases in superannuation contributions required to be paid by local authorities in consequence of fees paid as part of those charges, and (2) the payment out of money provided by Parliament of any expenditure incurred by ... 2 Mar 2010 AYE
It is not just the Liberal Democrats who have repeatedly pointed out the failings of control orders. There have been many high-profile court cases, not least over the past year, that inform and support our position. Seven orders in total have been quashed by the courts. As I mentioned, in June 2009 the House of Lords ruled unanimously that sufficient detail of allegations must be disclosed to susp... 1 Mar 2010 AYE
If the United Kingdom wishes to retain the power to exercise influence in this uncertain world, we sacrifice those assets at our peril. For the UK to surrender its role in the world would have disastrous consequences-military, political and economic. Recovery of that role would take at least a generation, if it could ever be done. That implies exercising choice, and that is something that we shall... 1 Mar 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 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
"In my opinion the rule of law requires that the actions of the Treasury in this context be subjected to judicial scrutiny." That is a powerful judgment that fatally undermines the Government's case that no other legislation will enable them to safeguard the national interest. They simply choose not to use what is already in place. Is my hon. Friend effectively saying that, when faced with the inc... 8 Feb 2010 AYE
