Question accordingly negatived. Amendment proposed: 3, page 1, line 4, leave out ‘before 31 December 2017 ’ and insert ‘on 23 October 2014 ’.—(Adam Afriyie.) 22 Nov 2013 NO
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
Division 129 19 Nov 2013 NO
Question accordingly agreed to. Question put, That the clause be read a Second time. 8 Nov 2013 AYE
It is quite simple: photography in the Chamber is not allowed by anybody. I am sure that those on the Treasury Benches are capable of ensuring that that includes civil servants in the Box. Further to that point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. I accept that point, but would it be in order for Mr Speaker, or someone else, to check that the individual was not filming in the Chamber? I am advised that... 8 Nov 2013 AYE
I beg to move, That the House sit in private. Question put forthwith (Standing Order No. 163 ). 8 Nov 2013 NO
I pay tribute to my hon. Friend the Member for Wealden (Charles Hendry) , who made a heavy hitting and thoughtful speech. He pointed out that Labour’s plans are already undermining investment, forcing up costs and increasing the political risks. He has estimated that the cost of Labour’s price freeze to consumers’ bills will be £1 billion. We have just heard an exchange about tariffs. Is the Minis... 6 Nov 2013 NO

Voting for this Bill tonight does not mean I will be giving a green light to the whole project. There is still some way to go for me to be persuaded that the pros outweigh the cons, and I shall be looking at things very seriously. But one thing I would say is that if there is one person in this Chamber who can persuade me of that, it is the Secretary of State. We should not forget that Hitachi bui... 31 Oct 2013 AYE
Question accordingly negatived. Question put forthwith ( Standing Order No. 31(2) ), That the proposed words be there added. 30 Oct 2013 AYE
I am confused, Mr Deputy Speaker, about what I am being asked to do. Am I being asked to pay a bigger percentage by results or am I being asked not to do it at all? I do not think that the Opposition know. I have also been asked whether the system will involve contractors passing back difficult cases. That will not happen for two reasons. First, the decision on whether an offender has become a hig... 30 Oct 2013 NO
We would have to clear up the Government’s mess and think about what the time frame should be, but without giving anyone the sack, we would require all teachers to achieve QTS in a reasonable time, and unlike this Government, we would negotiate and consult. The Schools Minister can believe that teachers should not have to be qualified and profess that view in the House of Commons with impressive c... 30 Oct 2013 NO
Question accordingly negatived. Amendments made: 2, page 11, line 36, leave out ‘those members’ and insert ‘some or all of the members to whom the amendments apply’. Amendment 3, page 11, line 37, at end insert— ‘( ) The power may be used to make amendments that will apply in relation to future members and correspond to the amendments being made in relation to current members.’.— (Steve Webb .) Am... 29 Oct 2013 NO
In particular, those who paid the married woman’s stamp and as a result have a poor contribution record will, notwithstanding the fact that we are ending derived rights, continue to be able to receive a 60% spouse’s pension or a 100% widow’s pension, because that was the basis of the deal that they did with the state. They signed the married woman’s stamp, which said, “I’ll pay less NI, but I unde... 29 Oct 2013 NO
Question accordingly negatived. New clause 1 added to the Bill. 29 Oct 2013 NO
Jarvis, as an employer, was paying an insurance policy. It was paying into a fund so that if it became insolvent its employers would get the payout, and that is exactly what has happened. Other people who work for private firms get a payout according to how the pension protection fund works. This debate has gone on for the best part of four hours and the recurrent theme has been that when the coal... 29 Oct 2013 NO
I have now given way three times, unlike the hon. Member for Corby, so I will now continue with my speech. In the minute remaining I will mention some of the initiatives that the Government are undertaking. I think that some hon. Members were quite churlish about the Portas review. Mary Portas is a business woman who gave up her time for the Government. She came up with many sensible recommendatio... 16 Oct 2013 NO
A couple of years after the White Paper, the then Business Secretary, the right hon. Member for Kingston upon Hull West and Hessle (Alan Johnson) , said: “The Government consider that zero hours contracts can contribute to the flexibility necessary for a modern labour market”.—[ Official Report , 2 March 2000; Vol. 345, c. 344W .] Unlike the last Labour Government, we will act. We will hold a full... 16 Oct 2013 NO
Does the Minister recognise that sometimes it is not the attacks themselves that cause anxiety but the intimidating nature of some of the dogs that are attached to what I would call dangerous owners? That blights the lives of people trying to use the parks. Just the presence of this intimidating animal with its owner can do some damage. I do recognise that. That is a good reason why it is better t... 15 Oct 2013 NO
‘( ) A constable— (a) may if necessary use reasonable force for the purpose of exercising a power under this paragraph; (b) may authorise a person to carry out on the constable’s behalf a search under this paragraph.’. Amendment 81, page 146, line 5, leave out paragraph 5. — (Damian Green.) Amendment proposed: 96, page 155, line 32, leave out paragraphs 24 to 27.—(Jack Dromey.) 15 Oct 2013 NO
These words should make us all think about how we vote and about the message that this Bill sends to criminals across the country. The judge said of the gang: “Their days were spent posturing outside…shops dealing drugs. It is as if they belong to some sort of outlaw tribe which has rejected all society’s moral standards and conventions. Their minds are spent towards feuding and prosecuting vendet... 14 Oct 2013 NO
Part 3 seeks to punish all trade unions by burying them in pointless and expensive administrative requirements for their membership lists because some of them have had the temerity to be affiliated to the Labour party. It should be seen for the grubby little piece of partisan legislative abuse that it is. Order. We have fewer than 20 minutes left and five Members wish to catch my eye. If we can di... 9 Oct 2013 AYE
elections, and if there were special, unique features associated with a particular constituency and an argument going on there, it would not be unreasonable to have a different expenditure level in that seat. Further, also under subsection (6)— Order. I say very gently to the Deputy Leader of the House, to whose contribution I am listening with my usual interest and respect, that I know that he wi... 9 Oct 2013 NO
I have listened carefully to what the Opposition have said, but I will press the Government amendments. Amendment 32 agreed to.
