  Order. May I point out, to prevent any further errors, that the term “you” is not used in the Chamber, because it refers to me, in the Chair? Hopefully no one else will make the same mistake.

  Order. Just to help Members, let me say that those looking to intervene have to both stand and make a sound; otherwise, the Member who has the floor may not be aware. If requests for interventions are not taken, those looking to intervene must sit down. They may then stand up and try again.

  A substantial opening speech there. I call the Minister.

• 21 May 2025 · Business and the Economy · Hansard source

  Order. It is good etiquette to speak through the Chair, and to not use the word “you”; it just dampens the tone of the debate a little bit.

  More

  Marvellous—we will check the record. You may continue.

• 20 May 2025 · Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories · Hansard source

  More

  Order. “What actions are you going to take”? The hon. Member has been in the House long enough to know that that is not appropriate language. I should not have to repeat myself.

  I am grateful to the hon. Member for giving notice of his point of order. The attendance of witnesses before Select Committees is not a matter for the Chair. However, it is surprising that the current National Security Adviser has declined to appear before the Joint Committee when all of his predecessors have been willing to do so. The Government’s own guidance on the matter states: “Parliament has powers to call any individual to give evidence… When a Select Committee indicates that it wishes to take evidence from any particular names official, including special advisers, the presumption is that Ministers will seek to agree such a request.” I am sure that the Clerks will be able to advise the hon. Member and his Committee on how best to pursue the matter further. Bill Presented Child Abduction and Custody Act 1985 (Amendment) Bill Presentation and First Reading (Standing Order No. 57) Lisa Smart, supported by Ben Maguire and Josh Babarinde, presented a Bill to amend the Child Abduction and Custody Act 1985 to make provision about the interpretation of that Act in relation to domestic abuse. Bill read the First time; to be read a Second time on Friday 11 July , and to be printed (Bill 246 ).
