26 Mar 2026Business of the House

I thank my hon. Friend for her question, but I am afraid I have to disappoint her. The Government believe that the current daylight saving arrangements represent the optimal use of the available daylight across the UK, so there are no plans to introduce double summer time or any such changes.

My hon. Friend is absolutely right to raise this matter. Over 110,000 defibrillators are registered in the UK, and over 30,000 have been added over the past two years, many as a result of local community-led action. I join her in offering our sincere thanks to Jordan for his lifesaving actions—and I also thank those in

I absolutely join my hon. Friend on congratulating Richard Ledger and the successes of the Long Eaton Town Deal Board. As he knows, through our Pride in Place programme, we are helping communities to take back control. This goes to show what can happen when communities are in the driving seat, have the resources that t

That is a very interesting question. It brings together two things that the Government are determined to do: to make sure that we provide the very best support for people suffering from cancer, and to make sure that we support parents, particularly new parents, if this should arise. I do not know the answer to the hon.

I am very concerned to hear about the case the hon. Lady raises and will certainly draw her concerns to the attention of the Health Secretary.

My hon. Friend is a regular attendee of business questions, and I know that many share his appreciation of the importance of places of worship in communities. The reality is that we gave the Scottish Government the largest funding settlement since devolution began, and we gave them notice of what we were going to do, s

I thank my hon. Friend for bringing this matter to the House, because it is vital that we protect our heritage buildings. Earlier this year, we doubled our support for the heritage at risk fund to £15 million, but I know that many people across our communities are still frustrated. It is also a matter of interest acros

I pay tribute to John and, indeed, his colleagues. I am sorry to hear of the devastating fire, but as my hon. Friend said, firefighters acted heroically to save Glasgow Central station and many of the historic buildings that surround it, and they contained the fire. I join her in paying tribute to John and all the crew

This sounds like a heartbreaking and frustrating situation for my hon. Friend’s constituents, and we wish Sam well. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs is updating the local authority tree and woodland strategy toolkit for 2026. The updated toolkit will include more detailed advice on health and safe

I thank my hon. Friend for raising this important matter. We are committed to improving the system for 11 million private renters. I am pleased that we are abolishing section 21 no-fault evictions, but as other hon. Members have said previously, there are concerns about what less scrupulous landlords may do in that per

The hon. Lady is right to raise concerns because it is right that MPs get the information that they need on behalf of their constituents. I will take this up with the relevant Minister and seek to get the answers that she wants.

I thank my hon. Friend for raising that matter, which has been raised consistently by all parties across the House. The Government understand the importance of face-to-face banking services, which is why we are committed to the roll-out of at least 350 banking hubs, more than 210 of which are already open. I will ensur

This is an important and concerning matter, and the hon. Gentleman has been a key campaigner in supporting not only his constituents but those in the wider region. I will draw the matter to the attention of the relevant Minister, but we have Energy Security and Net Zero questions next week. He may wish to hear from the

I certainly join my hon. Friend in congratulating Ashley on his remarkable service—44 years of continuous service to his community is an incredible achievement. I thank him, and indeed other councillors who reach such a milestone, whichever party they represent. I understand that Ashley quoted our dear friend Jo Cox in

As ever, the hon. Gentleman raises a serious issue in the responsible way that we have become accustomed to. He knows the UK is committed to defending freedom of religion and belief for all. The persecution of Christians in Pakistan is unacceptable. Protecting freedom of religion or belief is central to the UK Governme

We are committed to building a strong pipeline of future zero emission bus orders. The publication of the 10-year pipeline is a key milestone in this work and will boost British manufacturing. As a starter, I encourage my hon. Friend to raise his concerns at upcoming Transport questions on 26 March, but I will also rai

My hon. Friend is absolutely right to raise this very concerning matter. We want to prevent future tragedies and our thoughts remain with Gabe’s family and friends. I will ensure that my hon. Friend’s concerns are drawn to the attention of the relevant Minister, and the Minister will decide about a meeting with my hon.

I will do so, not least because, as the hon. Lady points out, wherever such developments are happening across the country, people are able to benefit from them. I know that my constituents were able to benefit from such a project, so I will seek to do as she asks.

These matters are often better decided locally because they depend on local circumstances, but if the hon. Gentleman wants to go into greater detail and hear from the relevant Minister, in case the existing rules are not being applied properly, I encourage him to apply for a Westminster Hall debate.

I have many regrets in my life, and that is definitely one of them! I thank my hon. Friend for raising this matter. I will certainly consider a visit at some point in the future, if not when Gareth Gates is there. As I have said, I wish well all communities seeking to be a town of culture, including North Shields in my
