Speeches by Craft.

“Are the conversations that young people are having driven by social media?”

“What are the effective strategies to encourage condom use? Spend is obviously one of them.”

“Part of it is about having things readily available and part of it is about behaviour change. Are there examples of anyone having been able to address those different behaviours and make a real difference? Are there things in place?”

“It’s about beginning a conversation and then—”

“I strongly welcome this strategy today, particularly the commitment that the Prime Minister and the Secretary of State have made to guarantee all 16-year-olds a college place. However, will she commit to working towards closing the legislative gap, where children between the ages of five and 16 with SEND can access hom…”

“Thameside theatre in Grays is the only public purpose-built theatre in Thurrock. It is a vital cultural asset and has provided the first experience of the performing arts for a number of people, including myself, who trod the boards there for five years as a member of Thurrock’s local scout and guide gang show. My coll…”

“I very much welcome the report and the leadership that my hon. Friend the Member for Birmingham Erdington (Paulette Hamilton) has shown throughout its production. I have the honour of serving on the Health and Social Care Committee, and this is one of the standout pieces of work that we carried out while she was interi…”

“That rather helpfully leads me to my next question—to anyone watching who saw Alex’s questions, we have not set this up! You said that there are some barriers that stop those who are eligible from accessing the Healthy Start scheme and that auto-enrolment might be one way around that. What else stops people accessing i…”

“What economies of scale would you see? How many people do you think would need to go through the door of supermarkets before they started to see value in supporting and promoting the scheme?”

“The evidence submitted by both your organisations suggests that you would like to see some changes to the Healthy Start scheme. Can you talk us through what you would like to see?”

“Is that having more people achieve their nutritional intake, or is it within the group that you are working with that you are seeing the uptick? Does it have the potential to do both?”

“That was going to be my next question: what evidence do you have of the impact that the changes that you suggest would have, either in the short term or a little further ahead?”

“Thank you. Anna?”

“Thank you very much, Madam Deputy Speaker—I will be as brief as possible. I will speak to new clause 37, which stands in my name and which seeks to support the Government in ending the scandal of the inappropriate detention of people with a learning disability and/or autism. I declare an interest as the chair of the al…”

“I will not, because I am aware that I am almost out of time. My new clause would ensure that the Government have to set out, within six months of this Bill receiving Royal Assent, a road map that engages in a co-productive way with people with learning disabilities or autism, their advocates and organisations that cham…”

“Absolutely. It is crucial that those with experience of the system are heard. The only way we can fix it is by taking the approach of those who have experienced it. My interest in my child does not stop at the school gates; it is holistic, looking forward to her life as she goes through childhood into young adulthood a…”

“It is a pleasure to see you in the Chair, Dr Huq. I am grateful to have the opportunity to speak in this clearly popular debate. As many Members will know, I have the privilege of being mum to two incredible girls, one of whom has additional needs. Like many parents of a disabled child, I feel keenly the unfairness and…”

“I was hoping that we could talk about that separately. If we look at the wider SMI population—if we can call people that—what kind of assurances are there in place that, when the Bill is implemented and comes into force, community mental health teams will not be overwhelmed?”

“Will the provisions in the Bill be switched on by the end of this Parliament?”

“But that will not be switched on until things are ready.”
