“I am grateful to my hon. Friend for securing this debate. I wonder whether, like me, she would like to hear from the Minister today how the vision for ports that she outlined, which is so clearly tapping into opportunities in Cornwall across the critical minerals, renewable energy and many other industries, could link …”

“I thank my hon. Friend for giving way again and I wholeheartedly support the work taking place at the port of Falmouth to get the rail connection back for freight. I really hope that we can draw support from the Department for Transport in accelerating that to the next stage. However, does she agree that we also need t…”

“Matthew, thank you for all the work you are doing. Could you outline the importance of atrocity prevention work to countries like Myanmar?”

“Matthew, you mentioned that the lack of accountability is one of the reasons why this is such an acute issue in Myanmar.
