5 Feb 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 340)

How do you think the Government should respond to those prominent figures using their social media platforms to purposefully destabilise social cohesion or destabilise community relations in this country?

5 Feb 2025 English Devolution and Local Government

I welcome the statement made by my right hon. Friend. I also draw Members’ attention to my entry in the Register of Members’ Financial Interests. In North Warwickshire and Bedworth, my constituents can see the benefits of devolution just over the boundary in the West Midlands combined authority, and I am sure that they

I apologise that I was late to this sitting, and thank you for your time. How do you think public figures such as politicians can best use their platforms to promote social cohesion?

5 Feb 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 340)

We have seen an increase in those deliberate culture wars entered into by politicians, whether that is targeted at certain communities or at trans people. Do you think that directly leads to hate crime?

4 Feb 2025National Cancer Plan

I thank the Minister for his statement, and particularly for his deep understanding of women’s health issues and the difficulty that many women face in getting their GP to understand what they are going through. The Women and Equalities Committee has spent some time looking at that this year. The George Eliot hospital

30 Jan 2025 Business of the House

My constituent Clare Rogers came to my surgery after she lost her son to a ketamine addiction. Clare told me of the severe pain and neurological damage he suffered. A crisis of ketamine usage among our young people has become apparent, and we must look to mental health and addiction services because they are ultimately

30 Jan 2025 Women’s Health Strategy

Under the last Government, five times more research went into erectile dysfunction, which affects 19% of men, than went into premenstrual syndrome, which affects 90% of women. Women are waiting more than eight years for endometriosis diagnoses. GPs are not required to undertake a gynaecological rotation within their tr

30 Jan 2025Support for the Automotive Industry

Around 3,000 of my constituents in North Warwickshire and Bedworth work in the automotive sector. I have met representatives of many small and medium-sized businesses that provide engineering and manufacturing services for the sector, as well as Jaguar Land Rover, which has a battery assembly centre in my constituency.

29 Jan 2025Engagements

This week, I heard a story from an elderly resident in Bedworth. Kolin Basra phoned the GP surgery to make an appointment for his elderly wife and was told that no appointments would be available for three months. Does the Prime Minister agree that that is utterly shocking and horrifying, and a direct result of 14 year

28 Jan 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 573)

Thank you all for speaking up and speaking out; it really is so important. With that in mind, I would like to ask Laura first: without giving any identifying details, are you aware of anyone in the music industry who has been pressured into signing a non-disclosure agreement, an NDA, to prevent them from talking about

28 Jan 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 573)

Thank you. Deborah, I am a lawyer myself although not an employment specialist. I just want to follow up on something that you have highlighted. You feel that for things to change, there needs to be more legal action or more people sued, but we have already touched on the fact that a lot of this space is freelancers on

28 Jan 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 573)

How do you think those legal actions should take place to have effect? Obviously, private civil legal production is hugely expensive.

28 Jan 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 573)

Thank you. Deborah, the ISM and others have argued for the Equality Act to be amended to better protect freelancers. What changes would you like to see, and why?

28 Jan 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 573)

Thank you. We have already covered the idea of introducing a ban on NDAs. Naomi, do you think there could be any negative consequences for women in music who have suffered abuse if NDAs were made illegal?

28 Jan 2025Road Safety: Young Drivers

It is an honour to serve under your chairmanship, Sir Desmond—I miss our Tuesday morning meetings. I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Shrewsbury (Julia Buckley) for securing the debate. I am speaking because road safety for young drivers is a crucial issue in my constituency. My constituency is semi-rural, and learn

28 Jan 2025Extremism Review

I am grateful to the Security Minister for his words today. He has successfully exposed the reports about the leak as the nonsense they are. But there are serious issues here, including around how we respond to the rising level of youth violence and extremism and the increasing availability of online material that fuel

Several have signed them. Are you aware of that being a more widespread ask? Has everybody you are aware of who has been asked signed them or have some refused?

28 Jan 2025Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 573)

Charisse, the Government are considering banning the use of NDAs in circumstances involving harassment and abuse. Is that something you think people working in the music industry would support?
