Speeches by Prinsley.

“Has the Leader of the House had the opportunity to see the shocking Channel 4 programme “Dirty Business”? It brought to my mind Mr Binks of Stowmarket, who showed me a collection of photographs of the River Gipping over 50 years. They showed a once navigable river, full of fish and clear water, which is now blocked wit…”

“I thank my hon. Friend the Member for York Central (Rachael Maskell) for this important debate. I pay tribute to her political expertise in this area and for everything she has done. Dame Cicely Saunders—much quoted in this debate—was the founder of the hospice movement in this country. She understood that medicine is …”

“I am grateful to the shadow Secretary of State, who is, as he says, my Suffolk neighbour. Suffolk is home to the United States air force base at Lakenheath. The American air force has been our enduring friend since at least the second world war. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that we must do all that we can to support t…”

“Will the hon. Gentleman give way?”

“I accept that there are problems with the curriculum in Palestinian schools, but the eyes of the world are now distracted, and settlement expansion continues, as far as we can tell. I am concerned that when the dust settles and the rubble is cleared, the viability of the Palestinian state will be significantly jeopardi…”

“Issued at birth.”

“Surely you must agree that we should move to one number for one person? I come back to the NHS number: people are born with an NHS number, which could be their number. It could be on their passport, driving licence and all their Government documents. Why do we need a system which keeps changing the number?”

“So you would anticipate it was geographically located in the United Kingdom, for instance?”

“May I ask about security? Where is this data? How secure is it? Is it physically somewhere? Is it in some great storage system in Iceland? Where is this thing kept?”

“Finally, do you see the digital ID as having any role in the voting system?”

“It seems to me that everybody in this country already has a digital ID. They have an NHS number; they get when they are born. The NHS app is being increasingly used and is proving very popular. It seems to me that a Government digital ID is something will have to be sold to the public—the public will have to see the be…”

“Thank you. This question is really about Government-issued digital ID for right to work checks. It seems like the Government initially said that this was going to be mandatory, but then they changed it to non-mandatory. Why was that?”

“Good afternoon, everybody. This question is to Darren. In the light of the recent changes, can you please summarise the Government’s current policy on digital ID?”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Ms Lewell. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Ilford South (Jas Athwal) for introducing the debate. This is an issue of intergenerational inequality, of which we should all be ashamed. My university cohort and I graduated without debt. We entered a housing market that …”

“Interfaith activity has faced significant reduction and in some cases almost collapsed following heightened tensions from the Gaza conflict. Does the Minister agree that measures to support and fund interfaith understanding have a crucial role in restoring community cohesion?”

“There is obviously a problem with funding the recruitment of additional GP partners in rural surgeries. Does the hon. Member agree that we should think carefully about how the partnership model itself might be improved?”

“Will the hon. Member give way?”

“I am grateful to the right hon. Member for securing this important debate. Dr Richard West MBE and Dr Daniel James, general practitioners in Woolpit in my Suffolk constituency, have been awarded the Royal College of General Practitioners East Anglia Faculty GP prize this year in recognition of sustained contribution to…”

“I’m always getting recognised.”

“Essentially, do you think that we are putting sufficient resources into the training of our senior police officers?”
