| 19 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 550) “I have some questions on monitoring. First, Ms Foley, to what extent are the current monitoring and warning systems meeting the needs of communities, particularly in relation to surface water flooding, for which you do not have responsibility, and rapidly developing flood events?” | 43 |
| 19 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 550) “I want to go back to my colleague’s line of questioning about who has responsibility in certain situations. EA has responsibility for river flooding, and the local lead flood authority has the responsibility for surface water flooding—is that right? For the benefit of the public: if you have a flood with both sets of f…” | 58 |
| 19 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 550) “Mr Moodie, how effectively is flood risk data shared and communicated between agencies and with the public? What could improve transparency and co-ordination?” | 23 |
| 19 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 550) “They have to sign up to them, do they not?” | 10 |
| 19 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 550) “How can we increase the uptake of flood alerts? How can we get more people to sign up for the warnings?” | 21 |

| 15 May 2025 | Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill “My hon. Friend mentioned many real stories influencing this debate. I will mention one more: my constituent Mick Murray, who is in the Public Gallery today. Mick helped two close friends, Bob and Ann, to make the painful journey to Dignitas. Both simply wanted to die at home with dignity and surrounded by loved ones; i…” healthsocial-care | 94 |
| 14 May 2025 | Youth Services “Having dedicated spaces, support and community for young people can transform the trajectory of someone’s life. I and many Members here, I am sure, benefited from having a youth provision. I took part in activities that I would not have done otherwise. The previous Government stripping funding away from local authoriti…” educationlocal-governmenthealth | 355 |
| 14 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “I have a question for Professor Miller. How much of an impact will SAF have on reducing our emissions given its level of usage right now? Will we get to 6.3 megatonnes of carbon savings by 2040?” | 37 |
| 14 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “Another question for you, Professor Miller. Does SAF bring any secondary benefits other than reducing carbon emissions? Will it help with air quality or anything else?” | 26 |
| 14 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “I have a final question on SAF. Sorry to persist with it. Should our SAF production be from the UK and, if it is from the UK, will that make it more expensive?” | 33 |
| 14 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 831) “I have a similar question for Mr Beckford: will the level of SAF production as well as its usage be enough to achieve what the Government are trying to achieve?” | 30 |

| 13 May 2025 | Future of Public Libraries “I thank my hon. Friend for securing the debate. In the Derbyshire Dales libraries play a crucial role, hosting all kinds of community activities and providing space for the next generation to socialise and learn. They are a lifeline for those in the most remote and rural parts of the constituency, especially the elderl…” culture-communitylocal-governmenteducation | 131 |

| 7 May 2025 | Environmental Audit Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 439) “Do you think the Government should require whole-life carbon assessments to be done, or keep it voluntary?” | 17 |
