Speeches by Buckley.

“Are you saying there is not even a baseline, never mind that these are being monitored?”

“It seems like a key area for us is to close some gaps straightaway.”

“That is our next question. How do they compare the data around mental health as opposed to physical? Do you feel that has already had some coverage?”

“There was a whole definition of environmental anxiety. I thought there was a whole subcategory of anxiety.”

“So, a plan for the future. Thank you very much.”

“That leads on really nicely to the question around health and wellbeing. The adverse weather and health plan has goals related to the prevention of mortality, morbidity and the increase in years of life lost due to these adverse weather events. Is it the CCC’s contention that these metrics reframed for other climate ha…”

“Similar metrics for those equal partners to have them on the same grid?”

“I draw attention to my entry in the Register of Members’ Financial Interests as co-chair of the all-party parliamentary group on British buses. Today’s debate is so important to the people of Shrewsbury, as we have lost over two thirds of our bus routes in the past 10 years. We are one of the largest towns in the UK, w…”

“In Shrewsbury, we are delighted to see the extra Government investment in our local police force, which has enabled us to reopen our town centre police hub this week. It is essential to keep our town centre safe and reduce response times. Can we have a debate on how important it is to have police hubs in the town centr…”

“In your evidence, you both kept saying, “In this country, there is a gap in monitoring”. Does either of you have examples from overseas of countries where this is monitored and mitigated?”

“We know there are wider changes coming to the regulation of the water sector through the Cunliffe review. Do you see this as an opportunity to improve the management of road pollution?”

“Did you respond to the Cunliffe review?”

“Jo Bradley, do you have any thoughts about the opportunity from the Cunliffe review?”

“Your recommendation is to align those standards with the EU.”

“Does that regulatory and resource burden explain why more action has been taken against sewage, where the cost burden falls to the private water companies, than on roads, where the burden falls on Government Departments?”

“I will ask my real question. You are aware that our predecessor Committee produced a report recommending that the Environment Agency should require discharge permits for all outfalls on roads with heavy traffic. The then Government disagreed, calling it “a regulatory and resource burden” that was not justified. What is…”

“Would you mind just sending this Committee the link to the person at Middlesex University? If we can follow up that Sweden link, it would help us in our research.”

“You are saying that that is also the case in the research community. It is not as if there is a research network across countries where they are talking and raising these questions.”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mrs Hobhouse. I thank the hon. Member for Epsom and Ewell (Helen Maguire) for securing this important debate. The plight of pavement parking affects all our constituencies and, as we have heard, causes particular distress for pedestrians with young children, disabiliti…”

“Thank you. That is very helpful.”
