Speeches by Campbell.

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

“Ways of working have changed in the last five years to include much more flexible working and some working from home. How are we reducing our spend on office space to reflect these changes?”

“May I ask one question in relation to retail? Is online retail part of those figures as well?”

“Thank you for that. We have received written evidence about areas where changing demands have led to pressures for services. Where do you think the pressures will emerge in the next five years?”

“What are the chances of achieving the subletting arrangements? Are these under way?”

“I fully agree with that point. The director general of the World Health Organisation stated: “There are no fully-functioning hospitals in Gaza, and only 14 out of 36 are functioning at all.” He also said: “If you take the famine and combine it with a mental health problem, which we see is rampant, then the situation is…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for highlighting those important facts, and I agree with the points she raises. I was contacted by a constituent on Friday who said: “We are still not seeing enough food, medicine, tents or machinery required to clear roads, excavate bombed buildings to recover the dead, restore water and electri…”

“I thank the hon. Member for raising that important issue, and I fully agree with him. It is important to remember that this situation is fast moving and can change from day to day. The humanitarian aid reaching Gaza has been intermittent and has started and stopped repeatedly. It is vital to note that, since the ceasef…”

“I agree with the points made by my hon. Friend. I will be interested to hear the Minister’s response to this debate.”

“Some of what my hon. Friend has raised will be said later in this debate. As I said previously, it will be important to hear the Minister’s response to today’s debate.

“I thank my right hon. Friend for that intervention; I look forward to hearing the Minister’s response in relation to these points. As the Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs notes, “UNRWA continues to be banned by Israeli authorities from bringing in food and other supplies into Gaza.” That further com…”

“I thank Members who have contributed to this very important and significant debate today, and I thank the Minister for his response. As we have heard, the situation in Gaza is devastating.
