Speeches by Davies.

“Thank you. Mr Stace, from your perspective what needs to happen over the next 10 to 15 years to ensure that we can deliver on carbon capture, usage and storage, hydrogen networks, and grid capacity so that we can support your sector?”

“Why is it further away than it might be for things like automotive? Is it not comparable?”

“Have you considered a substantive motion for this debate, which might set out your concerns and call on the Government to take action?”

“Prisons are the responsibility of the Ministry of Justice, so why do you want the Home Office to answer?”

“Another thing to mention is the big black market around driving tests.”

“The Committee has 16 debates asking for Chamber time on its waiting list, which is likely to take until March to allocate. Are you happy to wait?”

“The shadow Minister is making a very powerful speech. He raises the issue of national insurance, and I know that change was very difficult in the last Budget, but it was to get over £20 billion into the NHS, which I hope will improve respite care. We saw huge cuts to local authorities under the last Government, and we …”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Ms Vaz. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Shipley (Anna Dixon) for securing this important debate and colleagues for sharing their powerful personal insights. I fully acknowledge the work carried out by unpaid carers across my constituency and throughout the countr…”

“The right hon. Lady makes a good point. There are challenges associated with cultural landscapes and living sites, but there are many examples of where we can make that work. Having a national strategy would provide a shared view across Government Departments to best support the sites. I will say something later about …”

“It is the greatest pleasure of my professional life to be the MP for Mid Derbyshire. That is particularly true today, when we have been taken on a magical mystery tour of the best places across the UK and further afield. I thank colleagues for bringing their insight, knowledge, experience and passion for their communit…”

“I beg to move, That this House has considered the 80th anniversary of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO). It is a great pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Dowd. I thank the Backbench Business Committee for allowing time for this debate. It is a great joy to see so m…”

“That is a challenge. A few sites, including the one in my constituency, have a buffer zone in which development must be tightly controlled. We need to get more energy from renewables, but there is a balance to be struck at valuable sites such as the Giant’s Causeway, which welcomes hundreds of thousands of people each …”

“Salts Mill is the gold standard of conservation and heritage restoration and the David Hockney paintings that can be seen there are truly remarkable—I encourage all colleagues to go to Saltaire and visit Salts Mill. My hon. Friend does a great job promoting what that wonderful community has to offer. There is a high ba…”

“I know the intangible heritage there is in Stoke-on-Trent and I encourage my hon. Friend to join the all-party parliamentary group on UNESCO world heritage sites, of which I am the chair, because that might be a vehicle to progress the bid. She is very welcome to speak to me about that. The Derwent valley in my constit…”

“Sir Bernard, as you have heard from the other pitches that we have heard today, there is a long list of applications waiting for the Chamber and Westminster Hall. The Committee has 17 debates on its waiting list wanting Chamber time, and it is only likely to have a maximum of 16 debates to allocate between now and the …”

“This review is hugely welcome because it begins to help us address what we have known for a long time: the creative subjects in our schools have been in decline. That is bad not just for young people, but for society and our national life. May I first urge the Secretary of State to learn from this review, and implement…”

“As was raised in the previous presentation, James, debate titles need to be somewhat more neutral. Would you be happy if the title were changed to “Productivity and Economic Growth in the East Midlands”?”

“Also, Tuesday debates in Westminster Hall are dependent on the departmental answering rota. Is this the Treasury?”

“The erroneous release of this individual was an appalling error. I am grateful that he has been caught and that the Justice Secretary will take steps to get to the bottom of what went wrong in this case. I will be grateful if he comes back to the House in due course to report on his findings. When they started last yea…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Ms Lewell. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Hertford and Stortford (Josh Dean) for securing the debate. Leaders at the Derby college group told me that some of their students, including some with special educational needs, get trapped in a seemingly endless cycle …”
