Speeches by Nokes.

“Order. That was a very long intervention.”

“The reasoned amendment in the name of Gideon Amos has not been selected.”

“I thank the hon. Lady for being so brief. That brings us to the Front Benchers.”

“Order. Members will be aware that I will call the first Front Bencher at 4.38 pm. That means that not all Members will now get in. They might consider that when making interventions.”

“Order. With an immediate two-minute time limit, I call Siân Berry.”

“I thank the Leader of the House for her responses this morning.”

“We have a very important statement coming in just one minute. Final question: Chris Webb.”

“Order. We are expecting an important statement at midday, so if Members keep their questions short and the Leader of the House provides snappy answers, we might get everyone in.”

“Order. It may be helpful if I point out that policing measures, as criminal justice matters, do not require a money resolution, as I have just been advised by the Clerk. I am not sure if that is of assistance either to the hon. Member or to the Leader of the House. I call Luke Taylor if he wants to complete his questio…”

“Order. We really do have to have shorter questions. Can the hon. Gentleman please get to his point?”

“Order. Around 15 Members still want to speak. The wind-ups will start at 6.35 pm, so if everyone is to get in, perhaps some thought could be given to the length of contributions.”

“That brings us to the wind-ups. I call the shadow Secretary of State.”

“Order. I remind the hon. Member that this debate is on winter fuel payments.”

“Order. The hon. Gentleman’s intervention is far too long.”

“I am introducing an immediate three-minute time limit. I call Bradley Thomas.”

“Order. I remind Members that we are debating the winter fuel payment. It is perfectly in order to try to put that in context, but perhaps we should steer away from a debate on the NHS.”

“Order. I gently suggest to right hon. and hon. Members that we are meant to be debating the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill on Report, and the amendments and new clauses.”

“Order. I cannot hear the Minister speak, so I assume that nobody else can.”

“Order. I gently ask right hon. and hon. Members, and indeed the Secretary of State, to keep their questions and answers short so that I can get everyone in.”

“I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson.”
