13 Mar 2025 Business of the House

It was fantastic to be able to observe the Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland resilience forum exercise Operation Mercury, a live emergency services exercise at our local barracks to test the response to a major incident on the M1. Will the Leader of the House join me in thanking Leicestershire Police, Leicestershir

13 Mar 2025Topical Questions

T8. Rural businesses in North West Leicestershire highlight the lack of accessible public transport, including having no passenger rail, as a barrier to attracting new employees and to growth. What conversations has the Minister had with the Department for Transport about the barriers that rural businesses are facing?

5 Mar 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 742)

Do you anticipate that the commercial dashboards will have real scope to innovate and move the landscape forward?

5 Mar 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 742)

That is useful to hear. With your personal experience from abroad, the previous panel indicated that most people will utilise the commercial dashboards over a period of time. Is that your expectation, that that will be how the market moves?

5 Mar 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 742)

Thank you. You have brought out the connectivity between a commercial dashboard and how the service that we need to get delivered will interoperate. The challenge going forward: who do you think is going to be responsible to try to bring those parties together? What do we need to do to plan for this market with lots of

When do you think the commercial dashboards could become available to the general public? What value do you think they will bring to the overall pension dashboard marketplace?

5 Mar 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 742)

In terms of how that data is presented, we have obviously heard from previous panels that pension adequacy is going to be a real problem for a number of people who are going to access the dashboard. Has that been understood, about how we present that information in a way in which people can immediately get some support

5 Mar 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 742)

Richard, you have done research on the pension dashboards in other countries. You have mentioned a little bit about the different styles of pensions across those other countries, but are there elements of things that we could learn from them in terms of how they have implemented it and how they have enabled people to t

5 Mar 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 742)

One of the things that this Committee has looked at is pension adequacy. It is something that we have been focusing on. It was really if there was anything from the international examples about whether or not adequacy changed as engagement with dashboards improved.

5 Mar 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 742)

Before I move on to commercial dashboards, the design standards and how the data will be presented to the consumer, how far along are we in making sure we understand how the data will be presented to the customer?

27 Feb 2025 Business of the House

Last week, Ashby netball club, in my constituency, completed 75 hours of non-stop netball at Ivanhoe school, a feat that is well worth applauding on its own, but the club also raised £54,000 for Kids’ Village, a charity that provides care and respite holidays for children with critical illnesses. It also broke two worl

25 Feb 2025Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education (Transfer of Functions etc) Bill [Lords]

I welcome the introduction of this Bill as a clear indication that we are giving apprenticeships the support and recognition they deserve. I started my professional career at a training and enterprise council—a TEC—and, once upon a time, I used to sign off training contracts for apprenticeships. It was always a pleasur

12 Feb 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 402)

You have covered most of it in Gill’s question, but the New Deal for Disabled People was revolutionary in supporting people back into employment. How do you see that that will progress to make sure that disabled people have access to work in the future?

12 Feb 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 402)

When a sanction is applied, obviously when somebody has money withdrawn, that would automatically increase their vulnerability. What thought process goes into that decision making?

These are the tier 1 and tier 2 APAs?

12 Feb 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 402)

If you were due to apply a sanction or a deduction, how would somebody’s vulnerability be included in that decision-making process?

Sir Stephen, how do Ministers use the advice provided by the chief medical adviser and her team in policy going forward?

21
12 Feb 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 402)

This is to Dr Allsopp. When you appeared last month, you said your team reviewed all policy changes within the disability services area, and that was from a clinical perspective. Is anybody responsible for reviewing changes outside the disability services area from a clinical point of view?

12 Feb 2025 SEND Provision: Derbyshire

I thank my hon. Friend for securing this incredibly important debate. My constituency neighbours Derbyshire, and I recently held a roundtable on SEND provision with parents and teachers from schools and colleges. The issue that repeatedly came up was funding, and the disparity in funding not just between schools but ac

12 Feb 2025Work and Pensions Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 402)

We have talked an awful lot about how we are responding to somebody with an individual vulnerability. Can you talk to me a little bit more about how that is recorded, but more importantly, once it is recorded, what do we do with it? Having worked for a housing association that provides support for a lot of people with
