9 Jun 2025Mental Health Bill [ Lords ] (Second sitting)

It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Ms Furniss. I am grateful to my hon. Friend the Member for St Neots and Mid Cambridgeshire (Ian Sollom), and I am sure many in this room will remember his passionate speech about his constituent Declan Morrison, who has inspired many of these amendments. I am grateful

I beg to move amendment 20, in clause 4, page 9, line 38, at end insert— “125ZF Registers: duty to maintain crisis accommodation (1) In exercising its functions under section 125E, an integrated care board must seek to ensure that there is appropriate crisis accommodation for people with autism or a learning disability

9 Jun 2025Mental Health Bill [ Lords ] (First sitting)

I return to my point that a review can be short when clinicians and those involved in a patient’s treatment deem it appropriate. Again, where the system is working for a patient, it is good and proper that we do a short review, and they can then carry on with their treatment. When it is not working, why should the pati

4 Jun 2025Speaker's Conference (2024) — Oral Evidence (HC 570)

I think my question follows on quite nicely from where Professor Ramanna and others have started, but I want to turn things round slightly and ask: what can we do as politicians to get us closer to the people who feel most disaffected? I am struck that the data appears to show younger generations to be more likely than

4 Jun 2025Speaker's Conference (2024) — Oral Evidence (HC 570)

One of my questions, which is linked to that, is whether it is reaching the people who need to be reached in order to change the tone of the conversation. There might be the audience for long-form media, but is it the people who need to be hearing the broader conversation, rather than the soundbites that are potentiall

3 Jun 2025Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (2025-06-03)

I want to follow on with inclusivity. I have spoken a lot to parents of children with additional or special educational needs and they have reflected that there is often a lack of sporting facilities and opportunities for their young people. This is an open question for the panel: do you feel that more could be done to

18 May 2025 Mental Health Bill [Lords]

Absolutely. I know from my own caseload of too many stories of where if young people had received preventive care and support, they would not be facing the tragic situations they and their families are now living through. This Government have scrapped key mental health targets, including goals for early intervention, t

18 May 2025 Mental Health Bill [Lords]

I welcome the direction of the Mental Health Bill. It marks a long-overdue shift in how we treat some of the most vulnerable in our society, recognising that people deserve more than crisis care—they deserve dignity, choice and autonomy. It has been a real privilege to be in the Chamber for this important debate, and t

13 May 2025Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 843)

Good morning, everyone. We started to talk about the money going back to the grassroots. From your perspective, Mark and David, what model is best for getting money to the grassroots? Is it the LIVE Trust working with member bodies or something else, perhaps?

Talking about getting money to artists, the Arts Council provided a grant to set up the UK Artist Touring Fund. How long do you think it will be before it can start getting that money to artists?

One final question. Can I come to Joff first, and then anyone else can chip in briefly? The FAC board has said it is important to keep LIVE Trust independent. What do you think is the best way to do that?

13 May 2025Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 843)

As Minister, Sir Chris, you have been tasked with coming up with a 10-point plan for music. What would you say a successfully executed plan could deliver in four years? What would you want to see?

36
13 May 2025Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 843)

You clearly have a long list, and you have been quite public about the fact that the 10-point plan has expanded. I think one could potentially suggest that perhaps if it is an ever-expanding plan, is there a risk that it becomes unfocused?

13 May 2025Culture, Media and Sport Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 843)

My final question, we heard in the first panel from, I think it was the Featured Artists Coalition, that it has evidence to back up the fact that touring in Europe is crucial, not just to established artists but particularly to emerging artists. We have the summit next week. How far apart are the UK and EU in terms of
