Sir Gavin Williamson

14 Jul 2026   Business of the House

The Leader of the House is usually a very thoughtful and considerate man, but my recollection is similar to that of my right hon. Friend the Member for Skipton and Ripon (Sir Julian Smith); it is that once a date had been agreed through th…

13 Jul 2026   Immigration and Asylum Bill

I am conscious of the short time we have. I will concentrate most of my comments on clauses 44 to 49. This is a Bill about our border, who crosses it and on what terms, but a border policy that scrutinises every person while waving through…

7 Jul 2026   Early Release of Prisoners

On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. Could you advise me on whether the Minister, in summing up the debate, is meant to touch on the motion at hand? It seems to be being largely ignored at present.

7 Jul 2026   Early Release of Prisoners

My hon. Friend had a very important UQ here in the Chamber, and Mr Speaker himself asked that Ministers respond to Members of Parliament when they make requests for information about their constituencies. I followed Mr Speaker’s guidance a…

7 Jul 2026   Early Release of Prisoners

My right hon. Friend is absolutely correct. We have a moment of what I believe is cross-party unity, because behind the Minister, I believe that those on the Back Benches of the Labour party do not want the Government to go down this cours…

7 Jul 2026   Early Release of Prisoners

As Members of Parliament, we often go around our constituencies and talk to many of our constituents across the political spectrum, and the thing I always say is that the people who come to this House—not that we do not get things wrong, a…

6 Jul 2026   Ceramics Industry

Will the Minister give way on that point?

6 Jul 2026   Ceramics Industry

It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Dr Murrison. I congratulate my constituency neighbour, the hon. Member for Lichfield (Dave Robertson), on securing this debate. As one of probably a few Members of Parliament who have work…

29 Jun 2026   Prisoner Early Release

The Minister has heard quite clearly from Members on both sides of the House the real concern about what was said at the Dispatch Box about those who had committed the most serious and heinous crimes not actually being released under this…

24 Jun 2026   Nottingham Maternity and Neonatal Services

I was not that familiar with the issue of neonatal and maternity services until my constituent, Mr Thomas Hender, contacted me about the tragic loss of his son, Aubrey. He highlighted the battle that he and his family had gone through, and…

18 Jun 2026   Business of the House

I think Members on both sides of the House are deeply appreciative of the work of civil servants right across the country. To pick up the point made by my right hon. Friend the Member for Herne Bay and Sandwich (Sir Roger Gale), we have a …

15 Jun 2026   Defence Investment Plan

I think we all very much welcomed the amazing work done by Lord Robertson, along with his team, including General Barrons and Fi Hill. How many of their 62 recommendations are the Government still committed to?

8 Jun 2026   Digital Safety: Children

In my constituency, this issue is of real concern to parents as well as children. Some of the big tech companies seem to resemble the big tobacco companies of the 1960s. We have had a great deal of briefing from the Government, and we have…

4 Jun 2026   Children’s Social Care: Enduring Relationships Strategy

I thank the Minister for the work he has done. It was a pleasure to work with him when I was at the Department for Education, and it is great to see the development of his findings and the effort that has been put into them. The Ministe…

1 Jun 2026   Lord Mandelson Humble Address: Government Response

Can the Minister confirm that the Prime Minister has not deleted any of the messages that he received electronically on any personal or Government devices in relation to Peter Mandelson?

13 Apr 2026   Pride in Place: Community Spaces

In the Staffordshire county council area we have amazing community spaces, but they would benefit from additional investment, and Pride in Place would have been a great way to allocate it. Sadly, none of the local authorities in that count…

23 Mar 2026   Child Exploitation

With the Government’s plans to regionalise police forces and the potential scrapping of Staffordshire constabulary, many involved in the care of vulnerable young people fear that there will be less focus on protecting children as fewer sen…

17 Mar 2026   Ministerial Salaries (Amendment) Bill

I thank the Minister for his generosity. He is right to say that the Government have moved to remove hereditaries, which is an important step forward, but they have failed to do a number of other things that were in their manifesto, includ…

17 Mar 2026   Ministerial Salaries (Amendment) Bill

Will the Minister give way?

17 Mar 2026   Ministerial Salaries (Amendment) Bill

Was any consideration given to reducing the ministerial total, as against increasing it, in preparing this Bill?
