Speeches by Ghani.

“I inform the House that Mr Speaker has not selected the proposed amendment. I call the shadow Minister.”

“Before I call the Minister, I remind Members that this debate has to conclude by 7 pm. It is heavily subscribed, so I urge them to be as brief as possible.”

“Order. Interventions should be short.”

“Order. We have just 90 minutes, and over 20 colleagues wish to contribute. The last speech was definitely not short. Hopefully, the Liberal Democrat spokesperson can show us how it is done.”

“I call John Slinger, who I believe has a very considerate three-minute speech.”

“Follow that, Paul Waugh. I am told that you have four minutes.”

“Order. I come to Sir Iain Duncan Smith, after which Back-Bench Members will have a speaking limit of four minutes.”

“Order. Just to be clear, good language is appropriate, and I am not sure “disingenuous” is the best language to use. I am sure the hon. Gentleman will find an alternative word. Is the hon. Member for Buckingham and Bletchley (Callum Anderson) finished wandering around the Chamber? Are you comfortable now? Fabulous.”

“On behalf of Mr Speaker, may I say that it is an absolute joy to see the wonderful Chelsea Pensioners in their glorious red uniforms observing proceedings? No doubt it will elevate the debate. I call Graham Stuart to do so.”

“Order. Before Dr Sandher responds, I ask Members to try to keep this debate in scope.”

“I call the shadow Minister.”

“We have a substantial number of motions to move so, with the leave of the House, I will take them collectively. Ordered, Business and Trade That Gregor Poynton and Rosie Wrighting be discharged from the Business and Trade Committee and Daniel Aldridge and Justin Madders be added. Culture, Media and Sport That James Fri…”

“With the leave of the House, I will put motions 2 to 5 together. Motion made, and Question put forthwith (Standing Order No. 118(6)), Companies That the draft Companies (Directors’ Report) (Payment Reporting) Regulations 2025, which were laid before this House on 17 July, be approved. Transport That the draft Protectio…”

“Order. If I have confirmed that it is not in scope for Third Reading, then it is not in scope. Conclude swiftly!”

“Order. Mr Mullan, we have to make sure that your speech is in scope of this Bill. I assume that you are coming to a sharp conclusion.”

“Order. We do not read out the names of Members; their constituencies will suffice.”

“I call Dawn Butler.”

“That may be outside of the scope of this debate. Minister, you may wish to respond.”

“To wind up for the Government, on her first outing as a Minister, I call Taiwo Owatemi.”

“With hope and optimism, I hope Adele gets that message.”
