Speeches by Campbell.

“My hon. Friend describes how strong his local community is; people there are coming together to make sure that looked-after children get the support that they need. That is certainly the hope and intention of this Government. I thank everybody involved in those efforts, and I wish them a happy Easter. When we return, I…”

“I am very concerned to hear about the case the hon. Lady raises and will certainly draw her concerns to the attention of the Health Secretary.”

“As ever, the hon. Gentleman raises a serious issue, and I thank him for that. We strongly condemn the repression of religious minorities in Iran, notwithstanding the grave uncertainty about what is happening now. This issue will continue, whatever the outcome of the situation there. The case that he raises is concernin…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for her question and commend everyone at Tommy’s Lounge for their work supporting our veterans. I will raise it with the Veterans Minister on her behalf. Operation Valour is a cornerstone of the Government’s veterans strategy, the first in over seven years. It will better connect local services, …”

“What a contrast—from celebrations after the local derby last Sunday, to the approaching dark cloud of the arrival of the hon. Member for Clacton (Nigel Farage). I thank my hon. Friend for raising concerns on behalf of his community. We are responding to the crisis in the middle east with the calm, level-headed leadersh…”

“The hon. Gentleman raises an important point, which is particularly significant at this time of international conflict. The House will take note of what he says. I certainly join him in saying that where there are children of military families—and, indeed, friends and family who will be concerned—MPs should do everythi…”

“I absolutely join my hon. Friend on congratulating Richard Ledger and the successes of the Long Eaton Town Deal Board. As he knows, through our Pride in Place programme, we are helping communities to take back control. This goes to show what can happen when communities are in the driving seat, have the resources that t…”

“For too many homeowners, as my hon. Friend says, the experience of living on a newly developed housing estate has been tainted by the consequences of unadopted infrastructure. We have recently concluded our consultation on changes to the national planning policy framework and we will publish our response in due course.…”

“I can, because this is a very concerning matter. This week, the Government published their waste crime action plan, which sets out a zero-tolerance approach to waste crime. I understand that the Environment Agency is considering all regulatory options to reduce and prevent any impact on the people of Fleetwood, and it …”

“I pay tribute to John and, indeed, his colleagues. I am sorry to hear of the devastating fire, but as my hon. Friend said, firefighters acted heroically to save Glasgow Central station and many of the historic buildings that surround it, and they contained the fire. I join her in paying tribute to John and all the crew…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for raising this matter. As she acknowledges, it has been raised by many Members in the past few weeks and months as well as today. It is clear that these delays are unacceptable; this is not the service that people deserve. The Government acknowledge that resolving this issue is a matter of the …”

“I certainly join my hon. Friend in congratulating Ashley on his remarkable service—44 years of continuous service to his community is an incredible achievement. I thank him, and indeed other councillors who reach such a milestone, whichever party they represent. I understand that Ashley quoted our dear friend Jo Cox in…”

“I certainly will. I thank my hon. Friend for raising this matter. It is great news for everyone in Clydebank, and I understand the team are having a great season. It also demonstrates the importance of Pride in Place. This is not just about providing money to invest in communities; it is about communities making the ke…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for bringing this matter to the House, because it is vital that we protect our heritage buildings. Earlier this year, we doubled our support for the heritage at risk fund to £15 million, but I know that many people across our communities are still frustrated. It is also a matter of interest acros…”

“As my hon. Friend will know, we are working with telecom companies to reduce poor mobile signal, particularly in rural areas. We have announced the shared rural network deal, which aims to deliver 4G coverage to 95% of all UK landmass by the end of 2025. I am very sorry to hear of what is happening in his constituency.…”

“As ever, the hon. Gentleman raises a serious issue in the responsible way that we have become accustomed to. He knows the UK is committed to defending freedom of religion and belief for all. The persecution of Christians in Pakistan is unacceptable. Protecting freedom of religion or belief is central to the UK Governme…”

“I need to be careful because I am travelling back to my constituency later today—or that is the plan—but I do join my hon. Friend in congratulating everyone who contributed to making City Day in Southend such a huge success. During these anniversaries, we are reminded of the important work that Sir David Amess did, and…”

“My hon. Friend raises a very concerning matter. We are working hard to minimise the harmful effects of forever chemicals. I will ensure that the relevant Minister hears her specific concerns and writes to her. Should she seek a meeting, I am happy to arrange that.”

“We are committed to building a strong pipeline of future zero emission bus orders. The publication of the 10-year pipeline is a key milestone in this work and will boost British manufacturing. As a starter, I encourage my hon. Friend to raise his concerns at upcoming Transport questions on 26 March, but I will also rai…”

“I have many regrets in my life, and that is definitely one of them! I thank my hon. Friend for raising this matter. I will certainly consider a visit at some point in the future, if not when Gareth Gates is there. As I have said, I wish well all communities seeking to be a town of culture, including North Shields in my…”
