Speeches in the chamber
7 Jul 2026 Small Modular Reactors: Jobs
While I am very fond of the hon. Member for Moray West, Nairn and Strathspey (Graham Leadbitter), the House will not be surprised to hear that I do not hang on his every word. My constituents are cock-a-hoop and absolutely delighted that D…
6 Jul 2026 Payment Scheme
Just to be absolutely tidy, could I make a plea on behalf of those families where the member is deceased but the estate still has a claim? There is sometimes, possibly wrongly, an impression that these people are put to the back of the que…
6 Jul 2026 Ceramics Industry
It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Dr Murrison. I congratulate the hon. Member for Lichfield (Dave Robertson), my good friend and colleague on the Petitions Committee, on his excellent introduction to this debate. He talks …
18 Jun 2026 Business of the House
I want to raise the case of Hughie Stirling from Ullapool. He was on board a flotilla proceeding to Gaza with aid when the Israelis intercepted them in international waters and took them into custody. His partner tells me that he and other…
17 Jun 2026 Draft Nuclear Safeguards (EU Exit and Fees) (Amendment) Regulations 2026
Would the Minister be kind enough to use what influence she can on the Scottish Government to make them see the error of their ways?
17 Jun 2026 Draft Nuclear Safeguards (EU Exit and Fees) (Amendment) Regulations 2026
It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mrs Harris. My party supports this statutory instrument updating our nuclear safeguards regime. Removing outdated Euratom transitional provisions and aligning our reporting framework wi…
10 Jun 2026 Promoting Scottish Interests Abroad
When it comes to representing Scotland’s interests abroad, football is right up there. My constituent, Mr Kenny Smith, has shelled out well over £10,000 on booking his tickets to go to the States. He had visa clearance—he actually had UK s…
9 Jun 2026 Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill
I assure the Chamber that I shall not mention power of any particular sort. Will the Minister, if he has not done so, think about having a word with the Scottish Government and how they might help him in his endeavours?
9 Jun 2026 Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill
The hon. Member speaks with passion and cares about her constituents. It seems that what she is saying is in parallel with my earlier intervention about the risk of losing the skills of working with steel—welding and suchlike. Does she sha…
9 Jun 2026 Steel Industry (Nationalisation) Bill
Nuclear is going to play a role in cheaper energy for households, and I welcome the Government’s announcement there will be an array of small modular reactors that will have to be made out of British steel. Equally, I regret the fact that …
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
The hour grows late. The people in the Public Gallery, who I must not mention, have sat patiently and listened. We know how many people signed the petition. That is an indication of how important it is out there. We have hon. Members fro…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
I have accepted a rather large number of interventions, and I know that a lot of Members want to speak in this debate. I will therefore close by making this last point. In my view, it would be a great tragedy if this issue became a party p…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
Children cannot look after themselves in this regard, so it behoves every single adult to sort this out. How do we do that? By having a conversation, by discussing the issue and by operating on an absolutely cross-party basis. In that way,…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
I believe that we must distinguish carefully between evidence-based policy and generalisation, between transparency and sensationalism, and between the legitimate scrutiny of institutional failings and the prejudiced stigmatisation of whol…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
Of course, the Minister will sum up. It will be interesting to hear the Government’s view on this.
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
Wise words indeed. To turn to the point that my hon. Friend the Member for South Devon (Caroline Voaden) touched on earlier, in England and Wales alone almost half of all child sexual abuse offences reported to the police in 2021 and 20…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
Indeed. The hon. Member has some knowledge, as I do, of the situation north of the border. The point is well made—I shall come to it shortly—that this crime is no respecter of where in the United Kingdom someone lives. Only by prioritising…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
I thank the hon. Member for his intervention. Today, we have with us people in the Public Gallery who have been through this dreadful experience. Sadly, it leaves scars that can last a lifetime. By referring to “offenders”, this petition i…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
Thank you, Dame Siobhain. I will come to my hon. Friend’s point very shortly. This petition provokes legitimate questions that the public want answered, regarding how data on these offences is collected and how patterns of offending are…
1 Jun 2026 Child Sexual Offender Data
Thank you, Dame Siobhain. The hon. Member underlined the point I am trying to make. Of the people watching this debate, many will alas be survivors of child sexual abuse who did not report that abuse until adulthood. That is the terrible t…
