Speeches by Onwurah.

“Thank you, Chair. This is my first time before the Backbench Business Committee, so apologies if I get the protocol wrong. I am grateful for the opportunity to say a few words about this application. Basically, the Government is establishing the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology as the digital centre of…”

“I think, yes, we would. While our inquiry will have progressed, the issues would still be there, although perhaps they would not be as pertinent or immediate as they would be following the spending review.”

“You said to Alistair that the debates on the waiting list would be around June.”

“Will my hon. Friend give way?”

“I thank the Minister for his excellent comments. I want to point out that I welcomed the strengthening of the Information Commissioner’s role.”

“I thank the hon. Gentleman very much for giving way. I did not include this point in my own contribution, because I did not realise that the AI copyright issue would be such a big part of the debate, but I just want to let him and the House know that the Science, Innovation and Technology Committee and the Culture, Med…”

“I share my hon. Friend’s desire to get to the end, and his faith in the ability of technology to deliver solutions. As I said in an earlier intervention, my Science, Innovation and Technology Committee and the Culture, Media and Sport Committee brought together technologists and creatives with exactly that ambition. I …”

“Will my hon. Friend give way?”

“I congratulate the Secretary of State on this Bill, and on setting out the importance and ubiquity of data; the current confusion on data sharing, data formats, data processing and data usage; and the lack of action by the previous Government to address some of these issues. Given the evolution of AI technology, its si…”

“Q6. The Prime Minister will, I am sure, want to congratulate Newcastle United on reaching the league cup final after Arsenal’s exit.

After two false starts with data Bi…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for the work he has done in this incredibly important area over a long time. He talks about the impact of rising interest rates on low-income countries, to which could be added the impact of covid and dealing with climate change, and the private sector operators. Does he agree that when countries…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for his generosity in giving way, as well as the excellent points he is making. As the chair of the all-party parliamentary group for Africa, I have noted with concern the language around the increased migration that we have seen over the last few years, and we are all concerned to see the way in…”

“T2. My living wage intern starts next week, just as a Sutton Trust report shows that internships are critical entry points to careers, but that working-class graduates are 20% less likely to complete an internship than their wealthier peers and most internships are never advertised. What is my right hon. Friend doing t…”
