Speeches by Taylor.

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Sir John. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Dunfermline and Dollar (Graeme Downie) for bringing us such a worthwhile debate. The spending review confirmed what we in Scottish Labour have known for a long time—the UK Government can be a positive force for good in Sc…”

“I used to run a small business. Does the hon. Member acknowledge that interest rates and inflation also have a huge impact on small businesses?”

“Thank you very much, panel.”

“Thank you very much. Extending on from that theme, what systems, structures and resources are needed to improve collaboration and alignment?”

“What are the biggest challenges and gaps in the co-ordination between your respective bodies?”

“I have a final question, but I think you have already answered it in part, so I will invite anybody to chip in with any additional points. Are there any shared data platforms, joint teams or formal protocols that could be strengthened or introduced that you would like to recommend to the Committee?”

“Has the Minister had discussions with the Scottish Government on how best to use the substantial increase in the Scottish budget to support the aviation sector? In particular, what do the Government plan to do to make up for the lack of investment in connectivity around Glasgow international airport in my constituency?”

“On 5 July, Renfrewshire hosts the annual Sma’ Shot Day parade, as it celebrates the victory of weavers over their employers in the 19th century. For more than 30 years, Mr Tony Lawler, a Paisley Buddy, has led the procession, beating the Charleston drum. Will the Leader of the House join me in congratulating Tony as he…”

“7. What steps she is taking to support the aviation sector.”

“Thank you very much, and thank you to the panel for all your contributions.”

“Thank you to all the panel, and congratulations, Mr Spence, on being able to move away from what seems like a very dangerous product. I would just like to ask you a few last quick questions about the disposal of end-of-life products. Would you say that there is sufficient capacity in the UK? What are the current option…”

“Just finally, is there support that you need from Government to ensure the safe and legal disposal of these products? Do you have any recommendations that the Committee could consider?”

“Thank you very much, and thank you to the panel for all your contributions.”

“In the previous panel we were hearing a lot about frequent flyers and an unfairness there. Is there anything that you can do to balance out any inequalities there for a family that maybe has to go and see relatives once a year, for example?”

“I have another question for you. There is a bit of a track record at Heathrow about projects being over budget—I have a list of examples if you wanted, but you are probably aware of them—and being more expensive than other airports as well. Will these costs be passed on to the industry and eventually to passengers? How…”

“Mr Gorman, I have a few questions for you surrounding Heathrow airport. How will the airport expansion costs be transferred on to customers?
