Speeches by Alaba.

“12. What steps she is taking to increase the accountability of water company executives.”

“On that point, before I come to you, Geoff, often some of these projects take some time to come through, and in that time you have inflationary pressures. Is any work being done to try to speed up the pace, so that initiatives are not hampered by inflationary pressures?”

“Good morning, all. I will start with a thank you, Matthew, for some of the work that you have done with the Haven on Hamlet Court Road. That has done a significant job of pulling the community together. When you look at it, it is almost like an anchor tenant, and building has been replaced so that it is no longer a ret…”

“A completely new question, and I know we have touched on it. On central government, what would you say we should do? How can we address this issue?”

“We mentioned outsourcing, and that is one way and I am not discounting its viability. That is something we could factor in. But is there an issue with inconsistencies across authorities if there is a heightened level of outsourcing?”

“Some evidence was submitted by the LGA, highlighting that funding for heritage planning is fragmented, competitive and of insufficient scale. What changes would you recommend for a more sustainable funding model for heritage conservation and planning services?”

“Geoff, I know you have partially answered this, but how can funding bodies help heritage organisations to plan ahead and stay supported both during and after projects? You have touched on the Government input. Any other areas?”

“I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Putney (Fleur Anderson) for securing this important debate. I appreciate her tireless work to ban plastic fibres in wet wipes. Wet wipes are an everyday household item. When flushed, they do not break down. They block sewers, pollute waterways and harm marine life. I represent a be…”

“The Government’s plan to relocate civil service jobs outside London will bring high-quality jobs across the United Kingdom and ensure that policy is delivered closer to the communities it serves. However, none of the areas identified for that relocation is in the east of England, and notably, none is in Essex. What ste…”

“11. What steps he is taking to increase opportunities to work in the civil service for people who live outside London.”

“I can say that my own life has been changed through knife crime, having been attacked on some occasions in my youth. I have lost some friends to knife crime and over the last 25 years, when I have been mentoring people, I have supported families who have lost loved ones. The pain that we see in those families is someth…”

“I had the privilege of meeting Helena and Christina, who shared with me the challenges they faced when their mother was sectioned when they were young girls. For two weeks, the responsibility for care was left entirely in their hands while local services struggled to find a suitable bed. Can the Minister confirm that t…”

“Will the Minister give way?”

“T2. Antisocial behaviour, including cars producing excessive noise along the Southend seafront and Westcliff roads, has long affected my constituents. Southend city council, Essex police and I are working hard to address those issues. Will the Home Secretary set out how the Government are going further, faster, in tack…”
