Speeches by Glindon.

“T3. At the age of six, Ellis Lake was diagnosed with metachromatic leukodystrophy, which is treatable if diagnosed early. His parents Tracy and Luke are campaigning for newborn screening for the disease. The UK National Screening Committee did not recommend screening in its last review of the condition, but it did outl…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for giving way while making such an important speech on such an important, but also contentious, subject. We know that the Parliament Act has only ever been used seven times and never for a private Member’s Bill, and in recent weeks leading figures have opposed use of the Parliament Act in this w…”

“That was the other question I was going to ask, and it would be a requirement if you went for a separate debate.”

“Given what you said about the green belt, there is quite a lot of overlap between your application and that of Rebecca Paul and Joy Morrissey, including some of the signatories. Would you consider merging your application with theirs, to be higher up on the waiting list?”

“It is not on the form here.”

“You have talked about the importance of Government policy on this. Debate titles must directly engage Government responsibilities. Would you consider redrafting the title to something like, “The Contribution of Fathers and Positive Male Role Models to Families and Society”?”

“Chamber debates require the support of a minimum of seven Government Back Benchers; you have five. Do you think you could find another two to support your debate?”

“Further to the concerns raised by the hon. Member for Brigg and Immingham (Martin Vickers), will the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero make a statement on the delayed hydrogen strategy refresh? Projects in my constituency, including the Lhyfe Wallsend development, are ready to move forward but face gr…”

“11. What discussions he has had with private sector representatives on securing investment in clean energy industries.”

“Allocation round 7 was a resounding vote of confidence from developers, and our supply chains will welcome that. At a roundtable I hosted last year, the Secretary of State set out the innovative principles behind the clean industry bonus. However, competing against lower-cost regions, such as the middle east, remains a…”

“You have not said where you would like the debate to be—in Westminster Hall, where it would be on a Tuesday or Thursday, or in the main Chamber. If it is on a Tuesday in Westminster Hall, that is fine. But if it is for the main Chamber, you would need three more Opposition Members on your application.”

“I welcome the Minister to her place and congratulate her on her new role. She has a hard act to follow, but I am sure she will be brilliant in her job. Could she say what metrics the Government will use to measure whether the Bill successfully reduces youth vaping?”

“I commend my hon. Friend for all her work as part of the APPG on smoking and health and in her former role as a councillor. Does she find it as shocking as I do that four in 10 adult smokers in this country believe vaping to be as harmful or more harmful than smoking, when it is one of the most effective tools to help …”

“A local pharmacy has contacted me regarding the need for a fast resolution to this year’s settlement negotiations. The pharmacy’s leadership tells me that their wage, pension and national insurance costs will increase substantially in April, and as a result they are planning to reduce opening hours and make staff redun…”

“No.”

“Thank you. On your application, you have only four Government Bank Benchers, and we need seven for a debate in the Chamber. Do you think you would be able to get the additional three names?”

“Hi, Susan. There has already been a debate on the Nolan principles in this Session of Parliament. To have another debate on the same topic, you would need to provide a substantive motion. Are you happy to do that?”

“I declare an interest: I am a member of the all-party parliamentary beer group.”

“I am very sorry to hear about the mother of my hon. Friend the Member for Worcester (Tom Collins). This is a topic of deep personal importance to me, to many of us in the Chamber and to many of our constituents, but it took a private Member’s Bill on assisted dying to bring the debate on palliative care into the foregr…”
