2 Dec 2025International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1225)

Thank you for that very comprehensive response. I wanted to quickly see if Andrew wanted to contribute in any way and maybe talk about the importance of WASH for women and girls. We have had a very comprehensive response already, but is there anything you would like to add, Andrew?

How are your NGOs feeling on the ground with the overwhelming demand and tragedy in terms of the figures that you are speaking about?

My question is for you, Evelyn. You have already mentioned WASH—water, sanitation and hygiene. What do you believe the consequences are of not investing in WASH and the sanitation economy? You started to talk about this earlier.

Thierno, what is the specific risk to women and girls in this type of crisis, and due to the funding cuts?

26 Nov 2025 Budget Resolutions

I thank the Chancellor and her team for a very welcome Budget. This is our Government’s second successive Budget, and it is focused on addressing the cost of living. It will ensure that everyone pays their fair share towards public services, and it invests in communities up and down the country. I will focus mainly on

26 Nov 2025 Budget Resolutions

I thank my hon. Friend for his comments. I will indeed come to breakfast clubs—how could I miss them out? The Resolution Foundation has estimated that scrapping the two-child limit would bring 330,000 children out of poverty and prevent a further 150,000 children from falling into poverty over the course of this Parlia

26 Nov 2025 Budget Resolutions

I thank the hon. Member for his support for the Chancellor’s Budget and the lifting of the two-child benefit limit. I agree with what he said. I remind Members what my hon. Friend the Member for Hackney South and Shoreditch (Dame Meg Hillier) said: 70% of children in poverty have parents who are in work. Children are n

26 Nov 2025 Budget Resolutions

Parents want to provide for their children. Parents make choices, and the Government are making choices to support parents. We are doing that by lifting the two-child limit; Opposition Members should support that. We must not forget that these announcements have been made possible by making tough choices. Following the

26 Nov 2025 Grove Park Railway Station

I am grateful for this Adjournment debate on the merits of upgrading Grove Park train station, a historical station that has served the local community for 150 years. Originally opened in 1871 to serve rural communities and local farmers, the station helped to kickstart the development of the thriving neighbourhood tha

26 Nov 2025 Grove Park Railway Station

My hon. Friend is absolutely correct about better lighting. People need to feel safe using transport, especially women and girls, and anybody who feels vulnerable in those situations. We all need better lighting and accessibility, and other improvements, in our stations, so that we can all use them, and so that we have

26 Nov 2025 Grove Park Railway Station

My hon. Friend makes a strong campaign argument for ensuring that stations are accessible to all. Much of Grove Park is made of corrugated metal, which leaks and is cold. When it rains, the waiting room is often flooded because of the leaky roof; things are even more difficult for my constituents when the door is locke

26 Nov 2025 Grove Park Railway Station

The hon. Gentleman is correct. I am just about to go into the additional accessibility options for Grove Park and many other stations. This is an issue that we need to keep raising, because we need improvements for our constituents. Grove Park station needs additional accessibility options. It has three steep ramps to

25 Nov 2025International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1330)

You probably need to know the terms of reference for the review as well. What does that entail and what is it about? You need to know the detail and have a look and question that.

25 Nov 2025International Development Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1330)

Lois, you mentioned that there were some overseas cuts, particularly in the African countries, involving the local staff on the ground. I am interested in having more information about why local staff were viewed as essential for some of that overseas work, and the implications of those staff no longer being in place.

Lois, you mentioned Abercrombie House and the implications for staff related to restructuring. Would either of you like to add anything else you are aware of about the implications for staff there? You mentioned DFID staff having the most experience, and staff from all different grades being quite worried. Is there any
