Speeches by Jones.

“That would be helpful.”

“On the back of Patricia’s point about the facility attracting more drug use, just for clarity let us note for the record that the facility does not provide the drugs.”

“We have touched on wraparound services, but to what extent is the provision of these services needed to address the root drivers of problem drug use? Does Glasgow have the necessary wraparound services, and are they appropriately resourced and equipped to be as effective as possible?”

“Just on the back of that, Gillian, you said that, in some cases, services close because it may be that there is no need for them anymore. That would suggest that they are successful. Can you give me some examples of areas where the services have closed for those reasons?”

“I appreciate that it is still early days. What about in terms of your research from international studies?”

“Are international services 24-hour facilities? I understand that the Glasgow facility is open from 9 until 9. I have a background in the NHS, and my experience of addicts is that they have very chaotic lifestyles. They will not stop injecting after 9 at night. I am just trying to find out what the view is in other coun…”

“The SNP has failed to use the powers the Scottish Government have to grow Scotland’s economy and has instead provided over low growth and low productivity, prioritising vanity projects over economic development. Scotland lags behind the rest of the UK in 10 out of 13 productivity indicators due to several factors, incl…”

“That leads very nicely into my next question, which is about whether safer drug consumption facilities offer value for money, when considering the impact that they have in addressing problem drug use—for example, in terms of cost savings for the treatment of BBVs such as HIV and hep C. I imagine that the NHS and health…”

“What are the different ways in which the Barnett formula could be formalised, including putting it on a statutory footing?”

“What more could the UK Government do to ensure that the process is more transparent?”

“João, you described the Treasury as the “ultimate arbiter” of what spending is Barnett-ised and what the comparability factors are. Should other parties be consulted on those decisions? If so, who?”

“You may already have answered this, but would it be beneficial to formalise the Barnett formula or put it on a statutory basis?”

“Would formalisation impact the effectiveness of the formula in practice? If so, how?”

“Is investment in clean power in Scotland keeping pace with the decline of the oil and gas sector?”

“What could the UK and Scottish Governments learn from other countries on how best to manage a transition from fossil fuels to clean power?”

“Is there a risk of investment in clean power going overseas if the UK and Scottish Governments fail to maximise Scotland’s potential?”

“I congratulate the right hon. Member for South Holland and the Deepings (Sir John Hayes) on securing this important debate. I have a long record of supporting and have worked closely with the WASPI women, both before and after being elected as their MP. I believed in their cause then, and I still believe in their cause…”

“The nationalisation of ScotRail has been another SNP transport fiasco. The Scottish Government’s flagship £25 million scheme to boost the amount of freight transported by rail failed to achieve growth. Their mismanagement of ScotRail and their own budget has led to a double-whammy price hike for passengers, with the re…”

“Good morning. The BBC Scotland channel has been on air for six years now, but it is being watched by only 13% of Scottish adults, and viewing figures continue to decline. You will not be happy with that performance, but what are you doing to try to claw that back?”

“This was the previous director in the Scotland report, and the committee noted how the phrase “backing British content” is better framed within Scotland as “homegrown”. I just wondered if that was a better way of promoting BBC Scotland rather than from a British perspective.”
