24 Jun 2025 · Speaker’s Statement · Hansard source

I wish to make a short statement about the text of the Universal Credit and Personal Independence Payment Bill. After the Bill was published last Wednesday, a small error was spotted in the text, concerning a cross-reference between subsections in clause 5. I am satisfied that the error is sufficiently minor to authorise a corrected print of the Bill, which will be available in the Vote Office and online after this statement. The substantive proceedings on the Bill are not affected in any way by the change, and no matters of order arise.

Before we come to the Bill, I would like to say a few words about today’s proceedings. On 13 June, an objection was taken to the Question that new clause 16 be read a Second time. As the objection was taken after 2.30 pm, proceedings on the Bill stopped. We will begin with the Question that new clause 16 be read a Second time. I will then put the Questions on the amendments selected for separate decisions. I can confirm that I have selected all the amendments in the name of Kim Leadbeater for separate decision, as well as amendments 14, 24, 12 and 21. Once the decisions on Report are complete, I will then call the Member in charge to name the day for Third Reading. If she says now, Third Reading will begin then. Many colleagues will wish to participate in the debate today. I hope the Divisions that we are about to have can take place reasonably quickly in order to maximise the time available today. On 13 June, Rebecca Paul moved formally that new clause 16 be read a Second time. New Clause 16 Wish to end one's own life “(1) A person does not have a wish to seek assistance to end their own life in accordance with this Act under section 5(5) if they are substantially motivated by— (a) not wanting to be a burden on others or on public services, (b) a mental disorder (including depression), (c) a disability (other than the terminal illness), (d) financial considerations, including lack of adequate housing, (e) lack of access, or delayed access, to treatment or other service which a public authority is required (or can reasonably be expected to) provide, or (f) suicidal ideation.”— (Rebecca Paul.) This new clause ensures that a wish to end one’s own life that is substantially motivated by the factors listed in the amendment does not qualify for the provision of assistance under this Act. Question put, That the clause be read a Second time.

Order. It will help others if Members can keep to four minutes.

A huge number of Members have indicated that they wish to speak in the debate. I hope that Members will restrict themselves to a reasonable amount of time—after the two opening speeches, I will advise on five minutes—to enable other colleagues to participate. We need shorter speeches to enable all Members, or as many as possible, to contribute. I shall make it clear that the Chair retains the right to impose a formal time limit, but I would rather colleagues helped each other. After all, it is an important day, and we do want to hear as many views as possible.

I can say that I have been given no notice of the incident at Brize Norton; I know nothing of the incident. Those on the Front Bench will have heard the point. I would not want to interrupt today’s proceedings. If the incident was that serious and somebody was so minded, we could always put something on at the end of proceedings, but that would be for others, not for me at this stage. Third Reading
