Speeches

• 25 Apr 2025 · Devolution (Immigration) (Scotland) Bill · Hansard source

  More

  Order. This is a very interesting riff on education, but can we get back to the immigration point, please?

• 25 Apr 2025 · Devolution (Immigration) (Scotland) Bill · Hansard source

  More

  Order. The debate is taking place with the Secretary of State, who has the floor.

• 25 Apr 2025 · Devolution (Immigration) (Scotland) Bill · Hansard source

  More

  Order. I know the debate is very intense, but “you” means me. No doubt the hon. Member is not critiquing me.

• 25 Apr 2025 · Devolution (Immigration) (Scotland) Bill · Hansard source

  More

  Order. That is twice! “You” refers to the Chair. I think that is the end of that intervention. I call the Secretary of State.

• 25 Apr 2025 · Devolution (Immigration) (Scotland) Bill · Hansard source

  More

  Order. Members should not use “you”. The hon. Member was told off twice earlier for using it, and he came and apologised to the Chair. I would not have mentioned it, were I not being accurate in making clear for the record that he had been inappropriate with his language.

• 25 Apr 2025 · Devolution (Immigration) (Scotland) Bill · Hansard source

  More

  It was a 50-minute contribution.

• 25 Apr 2025 · Devolution (Immigration) (Scotland) Bill · Hansard source

  More

  I am not sure if I am thankful for that point of order. The Chair is overseeing the debate. I have listened to it very closely. I appreciate that it is about immigration. I know that the Bill is very thin—it is only two pages long—but it is broad in scope. I will continue to listen very closely to the Secretary of State, and he will ensure that his comments are within scope of the Bill.

  More

  Order. I am not sure that the hon. Member highlighting his prowess in running the London marathon is appropriate to the Bill, but I wish him well.

• 25 Apr 2025 · Business without Debate · Hansard source

  Further to the Deputy Speaker’s statement on 28 March, in column 1298 of the Official Report, Mr Speaker has directed that the proceedings entitled the Arm’s-Length Bodies (Accountability to Parliament) Bill on 14 March should be considered void and this should be reflected in the Journal . That title, and associated text, was substituted in error for the Arm’s-Length Bodies (Review) Bill. As the House has been notified, the Arm’s-Length Bodies (Review) Bill had not been correctly printed at that time, which is a requirement under Standing Order No. 14(3). The order for Second Reading therefore lapsed at the rising of the House on 13 March. Once the Bill had been printed and made available in the Vote Office, notice could be given appointing the next available Private Members’ Bill Friday for Second Reading and so all subsequent proceedings, including on 28 March and today, are unaffected. Motion made, That the Bill be now read a Second time.

  Well, Mr Chope, that has probably given you all the exercise you need.

• 24 Apr 2025 · Bank Resolution (Recapitalisation) Bill [Lords] · Hansard source

  More

  I call the shadow Minister.

• 24 Apr 2025 · Flood Preparedness: Carlisle · Hansard source

  More

  As the Member for Carlisle mentioned her mother’s 91st birthday, it is only appropriate that I wish Freda Minns—what a beautiful name—a very happy birthday. Question put and agreed to.

• 23 Apr 2025 · Sewage · Hansard source

  More

  I inform the House that the Speaker has selected amendment (a) tabled in the name of the Prime Minister.

• 23 Apr 2025 · Sewage · Hansard source

  Order. Before you get back to your feet, Mr Farron, I remind you that you can speak as long as you want, but the longer you speak, the less likely it is that colleagues will be able to contribute.

• 23 Apr 2025 · Sewage · Hansard source

  More

  Order. Because the Front-Bench contributions have been so substantial, Back Benchers will now be on a time limit of three minutes. I call the shadow Secretary of State.

• 23 Apr 2025 · Sewage · Hansard source

  More

  Order. Before the Secretary of State responds, I would like him to consider the fact that more than 30 colleagues wish to contribute. The longer he speaks, the less likely it is that they will all get in.

• 23 Apr 2025 · Hospitals · Hansard source

  More

  The point of order is most definitely on the record. It is a point of courtesy to be here for the close of a debate if you are here for the opening. No doubt, Opposition Front Benchers will make that very clear to the Member.

  Order. Members with lengthy questions are just preventing their colleagues from getting in, so please keep your questions short.

• 7 Apr 2025 · Zero Emission Vehicle Mandate · Hansard source

  More

  Order. Colleagues and the Secretary of State must be much swifter—we have another statement and two further debates. Anneliese Dodds, show us how it is done.
