Speeches by Jarvis.

“Would you like to add anything, Lord Grade?”

“Just before Christmas, thousands of my constituents were left without water after yet another incident involving Southern Water—the latest in a long series of issues, including outages and sewage dumping in our precious chalk stream, the River Itchen. Yet this month, my constituents face water bill hikes of 47%. Does t…”

“T3. The power outages across Spain, Portugal and the south of France are a stark reminder of how energy security is key to national security. It is vital that any Government are alive to the risks to our national resilience. What steps have the Government taken to ensure that robust plans are in place in the event of p…”

“I am grateful for the opportunity to speak in this debate. As it has for so many Members across the House, football has given me some unforgettable moments. I grew up listening to the scores on Saturday afternoons with my dad, and I can still remember the pride I felt when my son had the opportunity to be a mascot at S…”

“You mentioned successful output. Do you consider the series “Go Back to Where You Came From” to have been a success? Do you think it achieved what it set out to achieve?”

“Good morning to both of you. Sir Ian, you are about to leave your role. How healthy a state are you leaving Channel 4 in?”

“From your point of view it was a success?”

“Does the regulatory system for PSBs put them at a disadvantage compared to the global streamers? If so, how do you address any disadvantages?”

“Do you think there will be a second series of it?”

“The inquest into the tragic death of a young woman who lived in Eastleigh has highlighted the importance of continuity of specialist care for vulnerable people who move home. My constituent, Alex, is still waiting for an appointment for ongoing specialist care three years after moving to Eastleigh. Will the Minister me…”

“Thank you. Anna, you recently launched the Equal Play campaign, which calls upon the Government to address the barriers that prevent disabled children participating in physical education and sports in school. What changes need to happen to ensure that more disabled children are active and enjoying sports at school?”

“Good morning to all of you. I recently had the pleasure of attending a football match at one of my local primary schools in my Eastleigh constituency, where the girls were all aspiring to be the next generation of Lionesses. It was wonderful to see them play. According to data from Sport England’s “Active Lives Childre…”

“I thank all the Members who have spoken in this debate. The biggest takeaways for me are that the way to ensure that all children have enough to eat at school is to raise the threshold for families who qualify for free school meals, to scrap the two-child benefit cap and to have auto-enrolment for free school meals. I …”

“My hon. Friend makes an excellent point. I agree that it is essential that children have the best possible quality food, as well as a sufficient quantity. I absolutely support the roll-out of breakfast clubs, but we must ensure that schools have the resources to provide them. The Government have talked about their plan…”

“My hon. Friend makes an excellent point. Schools are now being forced to subsidise meals from their already overstretched budgets, which takes away from vital resources such as staff salaries and school supplies. For Chander’s Ford infant school, the cost of providing meals now exceeds Government funding by £1.11 per m…”

“The hon. Lady made an excellent point, and I trust the Minister will address it later in the debate. One headteacher in my constituency who leads a school of over 600 pupils told me the only way he would be able to resource breakfast clubs is to extend the teachers’ directed time and remove some of the vital continuing…”

“My hon. Friend makes an excellent point, and I absolutely agree. I also congratulate him on the work that he did at the council to ensure that children did not go hungry in the school holidays. I wish more and more councils were able to do that. How are children supposed to get good grades at school, engage in sports a…”

“I beg to move, That this House has considered free school meals. It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Mr Dowd. It is a great honour to introduce this debate on free school meals—the first opportunity to discuss this important issue since the general election. Today’s debate was prompted by my conversations w…”
