| 4 Mar 2025 | Data (Use and Access) Bill [ Lords ] (First sitting) “I think that I will have to write to the hon. Gentleman. We have agreed the amendment, so that is slightly rehashing the debate. I am happy to write to him and he will have that before we come back for Thursday’s Committee sitting. Question put and agreed to. Clause 45, as amended, accordingly ordered to stand part of …” technologyeconomy-jobs | 80 |

| 27 Feb 2025 | Electronic Travel Authorisations: Tourism “We are absolutely determined to reach our goal of 50 million international visitors to the UK by 2030.

| 27 Feb 2025 | Small Theatres and Performing Arts Venues “The right hon. Gentleman used to be in the Treasury, so he is very good at making financial bids and I think he has just made a bid on behalf of Salisbury’s theatre. We warmly commend the work it is doing. As I have said, it is brilliant if we can get lots of kids coming into theatres. I want every single child, as par…” culture-communitylocal-government | 122 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Topical Questions “I think Kate Bush was running up that hill, too. Look, the truth of the matter is, as I have said many times, that we will not progress in this area unless we are absolutely certain that we will secure more licensing of content by British creatives, rather than less. That is absolutely key to what would be success for …” culture-communityeconomy-jobs | 73 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Topical Questions “As the Secretary of State referred to, I had that conversation yesterday, and I think a lot of people in the European Union and Commission are keen to reset their relationship with the UK, in particular in this regard. I will not name the European Minister, but when I sat down opposite him and asked, “What’s the most i…” culture-communityeconomy-jobs | 93 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Topical Questions “Yesterday I met people from LIVE, and we are still very keen on trying to ensure that there is a levy on arena tickets to make provision for small music venues across the UK. That is where most young people will have their first experience of live music. We are determined to get there as soon as possible. I would just …” culture-communityeconomy-jobs | 91 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Topical Questions “I would be absolutely delighted to come to St Kilda. I think there are quite a lot of Members who would quite like to send me to St Kilda for a very prolonged period. [Hon. Members: “Hear, hear!”] It is nice to unite the House, isn’t it? You’re so cruel! My hon. Friend makes a very important point. The archipelago of S…” culture-communityeconomy-jobs | 104 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Small Theatres and Performing Arts Venues “I commend my hon. Friend and all those who have engaged as volunteers to try to take over the theatre and run it in an effective way. I look forward to the first production; after all, “The play’s the thing”— I saw “Hamlet” last week, and “Richard II” twice. The most important thing is that we try to ensure that young …” culture-communitylocal-government | 114 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Small Theatres and Performing Arts Venues “We are absolutely committed to supporting small and large theatres across the UK. It is one reason why we have specifically announced capital funding, as the Secretary of State has said, of £85 million for theatre and other cultural infrastructure across the UK.” culture-communitylocal-government | 43 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Electronic Travel Authorisations: Tourism “One of the problems with the Conservatives is that they want us to endlessly spend more money on things, but they do not want to find the money that enables us to afford that expenditure. There are lots of things that affect the tourism industry in the UK —incidentally, I think the hon. Gentleman mistook his millions f…” economy-jobsimmigrationculture-community | 144 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Electronic Travel Authorisations: Tourism “I am absolutely delighted that even the Liberal Democrats are citing our target of 50 million international visitors by 2030; we have got that into this session three times now. The hon. Lady is right—of course we have to bear in mind all the issues that could affect those numbers. I do not know whether she has seen th…” economy-jobsimmigrationculture-community | 114 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Television Industry: Wales “I think it is a three-part series, Mr Speaker. I commend the hon. Lady on managing to get gigabit-capable broadband, which is my other responsibility as a Department for Science, Innovation and Technology Minister, into this session. We are determined to try to make sure that across her constituency, everybody is able …” technologyculture-community | 79 |
| 27 Feb 2025 | Television Industry: Wales “I am glad to say that we have a thriving TV industry in Wales. We have not only our own broadcaster, S4C, but phenomenal studios, including Dragon Studios just outside my constituency, where “Willow” was produced with the magnificent Warwick Davis. And, above all, we have “Gavin and Stacey”. I know that it is completel…” technologyculture-community | 76 |
| 24 Feb 2025 | Social Media Use: Minimum Age “Yes, of course. I am about to come to my hon. Friend’s speech, in fact.” healtheducationculture-community | 15 |
| 24 Feb 2025 | Social Media Use: Minimum Age “No, I do not. I am trying to make a very simple point: many factors have contributed to the mental health problems that many young people have, and social media is undoubtedly one. The question is, how do we rate and address all those different factors? As the hon. Member for Harpenden and Berkhamsted (Victoria Collins…” healtheducationculture-community | 599 |
