    Order. “Do you think they are wrong?” We have a long afternoon ahead of us—even longer for me in the Chair.

    Order. It is known that the hon. Lady is not giving way, and is about to conclude.

    Order. An intervention cannot have examples; it is short and to the point. What is the question?

    I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.

    Order. Has the hon. Member just arrived in the Chamber?

    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
    More

    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.

    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.

    Order. Colleagues can see by just looking around the Chamber that not everybody is going to get in. This statement has already gone on for an hour. I will try to go fast, but I need your help, with short questions and shorter answers.

    Order. Our constituents are watching.

  • 20 May 2025 · Victims and Courts Bill · Hansard source
    More

    There are many colleagues hoping to contribute; to enable hon. Members to prepare, I inform the House that after the next speaker there will be a speaking limit of four minutes.

    Order. I remind Members that we refer to colleagues not by their first or second names, but by their constituency.

    I call the Chair of the Justice Committee.

    I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.

    We now come to the Front-Bench speakers for the winding-up speeches. I call the shadow Minister.

    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 ).

    I am grateful to the hon. Member for giving notice of this point of order. I have had no indication from Ministers that they intend to come to the House to make a statement on this matter, but I note that it is Home Office questions on Monday and he still has time to table an oral question to the Home Secretary.

    I think the right hon. Member knows that that point of order is a matter not for the Chair, but for the Government. No doubt the Foreign Secretary and those on the Front Bench will have heard him and will respond in due course.

    I and the right hon. Member both came into Parliament together. He knows how to obtain a Standing Order No. 24 debate, so he does not need me to remind him of the process. He will get much advice from the Speaker’s Office. Without doubt, the strength of feeling has been heard repeatedly, in the statement and in those two points of order, by the Foreign Secretary and Ministers on the Front Bench.

    I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.

    Order. I want to retain the tone of this debate, but to get everybody in, we will have a speaking limit of seven minutes, which is still quite a long time.

    The hon. Lady’s family must be very proud.
