Speeches by Nokes.

“I thank the right hon. Member for that point of order. He has put his point on the record, and he will be aware that the Secretary of State specifically responded to that point throughout the statement. Bill Presented Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill Presentation and First Reading (Standing Order No. 57) Secretary…”

“Order. The hon. Lady has every opportunity to contribute to this debate if she so wishes. Interventions are getting longer and longer; they must be shorter.”

“I thank the hon. Member for his point of order. He will be aware that it is important that Members stay in order. The hon. Member for Milton Keynes North (Chris Curtis) has given some context in his speech, but he might be reminded of the need to stick to national insurance contributions.”

“With this it will be convenient to discuss the following: Amendment 4, page 1, line 2, at beginning insert— “(A1) The Social Security Contributions and Benefits Act 1992 is amended as follows. (A2) In section 9(1A) after paragraph (aa) insert— “(ab) if section 9AA below applies to the earnings, the reduced secondary pe…”

“I thank the hon. Member for giving notice of his point of order, which reiterates a point that came up yesterday in Work and Pensions oral questions—and, indeed, in the Chamber this afternoon. I am sure that all Members will play their part in ensuring that constituents are aware of the benefits, including pension tax …”

“I remind Members that in Committee they should not address the Chair as Madam Deputy Speaker. Please use our names when addressing the Chair. “Madam Chair”, “Chair” and “Madam Chairman” are also acceptable. Clause 1 Rate of secondary Class 1 contributions”

“Mr Doogan, I will not be in a quagmire.”

“Order. If the hon. Lady wants to contribute to the debate she always has the opportunity to ask the Member in charge and the Minister, but interventions must be shorter than that.”

“Order. I am going to reduce the time limit to three minutes, after the next speaker. I call Andrew Pakes.”

“Order. I call Julie Minns.”

“Order. As Members can see, a large number of speakers wish to contribute to a very important debate. I have no plans as yet to impose a time limit, but perhaps Members might be respectful about the number of interventions they take.”

“I call the shadow Secretary of State.”

“Order. As a Front-Bench spokesperson, the hon. Lady, first, should be on the Bench when I am on my feet. Secondly, we must not refer to colleagues by name in the House but by their constituency.”

“Order. I made the point earlier that we do not in this House refer to serving Members of the House by name. He remains the right hon. Member for Richmond and Northallerton.”

“Please say, “he”.”

“Order. It might be helpful if I provide a small business update to hon. and right hon. Members. The second debate that was scheduled for this afternoon will now not go ahead. That gives this very important debate the full time up until 5 o’clock, which will certainly enable me to get all Members in.”

“Before I call the Liberal Democrat spokesperson, I will just make the point that it is imperative that Members be present for the opening statements of any debate if they wish to be called—perhaps particularly so for those on the Front Benches.”

“I call the Minister.”

“The hon. Gentleman will be aware that that is not a matter for the Chair, and therefore I cannot provide advice as to how he can put that on the record. He will know as well as other hon. Members do that it is entirely at the discretion of the individual contributing at that time whether or not they take an interventio…”

“I call the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs.”
