Speeches by Hamilton.

“I am going to stop you there because I will run out of time. I want to ask Professor Orton about certain groups. What are the opportunities for expanding access to exercise for older groups from both under-represented communities or marginalised groups? In somewhere like Birmingham, a super-diverse community, it is nev…”

“My question is about mobile phone advertising and the fact that young people are getting mobile phones at a much younger age. The problem is that they are being influenced by the apps on their phone and the advertising that is then produced on those apps. What do you feel is the impact of these apps and that advertisin…”

“It has just not been done yet.”

“So that could be a recommendation.”

“You have given me all the negatives. I know that you are right—spot on—but if there was something that you wanted us to support you with to help change that, what would that be? What would you want us to tell the Government?”

“What about mobile phones? I asked a question about mobile phones and you have talked about everything else. I am talking about young children who are influenced by phones. What could we do? What could we suggest in that area?”

“I am going to press a bit further, and I will bring Dr Easton in at this point. As you have said, there are issues with digital inclusion, but everything you guys have said is quite middle class and about people whose first language is English, and they can understand these things because they have very professional ch…”

“That is a good place to end. Thank you .”

“Good morning, all. Sir Muir and Dr Boulton, the 10-year plan talks about the Government’s plan to move from analogue to digital. For some reason, we seem to be moving to digital by default—we are going to get there in the end—but what does that mean for people who are trying to get physically active? How can we ensure …”

“Madam Deputy Speaker, will the Minister give way?”

“Will the Minister outline what steps she is taking to ensure that equality and opportunity are at the heart of this Government’s five missions?”

“My hon. Friend makes an absolutely brilliant point. Yes, that should be part of the holistic model, but there is no model in place at the moment. It is like the wild, wild west—everybody is just doing as they see fit. That is why I secured this debate. I urge the Government to prioritise the development of national gui…”

“Again, my hon. Friend raises a valuable point. The issue of financing is vital, but I will discuss that more as I go on. Hoarding disorder is a widespread condition affecting between 2% and 5% of the population, which equates to approximately 1.2 million to 3 million people in Britain. Let me be absolutely clear: hoard…”

“I am grateful for the opportunity to lead this debate on a subject that, to the best of my knowledge, has never been discussed on the Floor of the House before. I often speak of my 25 years as an NHS nurse because that experience has fundamentally shaped my understanding of the hidden struggles within our communities, …”

“My hon. Friend raises a valuable point. I will come on to that later in my speech, but I absolutely agree that hoarding disrupts people’s lives.”

“The hon. Member is right, but this is not just about a solution. A number of people in our society are living with a mental health condition, and it needs to be treated. At the moment, there are no strategies in place, but I will answer his question as I go on. I thank him for his contribution.”

“I thank my hon. Friend, who is a brilliant member of the Committee, including during the inquiry. She is absolutely right. The issue of cultural change applies to everybody. We need to look at cultural change within maternity services, not just for black women but for all women. If we are to get the improvements in mat…”

“Thank you, Mr Betts. It is an honour to serve under your chairmanship. I wish to make a statement on the recent publication of the Health and Social Care Committee’s report on black maternal health. I speak on behalf of the Committee, which I formally thank for all its hard work and dedication to this inquiry. I also w…”

“Mental health is something that I have been interested in for years. During the inquiry we did not specifically focus on mental health, but it came up through some of the personal statements a number of times. I absolutely agree with my hon. Friend that mental health should have parity of esteem with physical health. W…”

“I absolutely agree with the hon. Member. The ringfenced funding was removed. The Committee was told through its inquiry that the funding can still be used—it is just in other parts of the budget. But if we do not have that funding ringfenced, it will not be prioritised. That means that women will continue to suffer in …”
