| 9 Jun 2026 | Draft Marine Licensing (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Amendment etc.) Order 2026 “I was not going to intervene, but this is such a fascinating debate that I cannot help but bring in the fact that Harlow has a coral farm. We all agree that the order is important legislation. Despite some of the to-ing and fro-ing, there is cross-party support for it, but does the Minister agree that international sup…” environmenteconomy-jobs | 77 |
| 9 Jun 2026 | Primary Care: Non-digital Access “I thank the staff at Princess Alexandra hospital in Harlow, particularly in the older persons assessment and liaison ward, where elderly patients are transferred from A&E and supported to either return home or transfer to different wards, another example of where Harlow is leading the way. How can we work together …” health | 80 |
| 8 Jun 2026 | Police: AI Trials “I welcome the new legal framework around facial recognition technology.

| 8 Jun 2026 intervention | Digital Safety: Children “I thank the Minister for his response to the urgent question; I have always been a big fan of his style.

The Minister will not be surprised to hear that I have done extensive consultation with parents, teac…” technologycrimehealth | 146 |
| 8 Jun 2026 | Maternity Nurses, Nannies and the Infant Sleep Industry “As a new parent, this is hugely concerning to me and not something I was particularly aware of. Does my hon. Friend have any advice for new parents looking for support about what questions they should ask to ensure they are talking to experts and not so-called experts who, as the hon. Member for Strangford (Jim Shannon…” healthsocial-careeducation | 65 |
| 4 Jun 2026 | Pride Month “In the spirit of this debate, I would like to say to the right hon. Gentleman that, although we might not agree on everything politically, this place is better because he is here and we should recognise that.” culture-community | 38 |
| 4 Jun 2026 | Pride Month “The Minister is giving an incredibly powerful speech, and I am already welling up—even before my hon. Friend the Member for Luton North (Sarah Owen) has started to speak. I just want to say to the Minister that if we did not have the changes in the law that allowed people like her to be in this place, doing what she is…” culture-community | 76 |
| 4 Jun 2026 | Pride Month “I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Reading West and Mid Berkshire (Olivia Bailey) and the right hon.

| 4 Jun 2026 | Children’s Social Care: Enduring Relationships Strategy “I think the Minister will achieve great things in his role, and he has already achieved great things, but this could be the most significant. The difference that the strategy is going to make—not only to young people leaving care, but to kinship carers—is absolutely massive. His dedication is borne out not just by the …” social-carelocal-governmenteconomy-jobs | 166 |
| 3 Jun 2026 intervention | Lord Mandelson: Response to Humble Address “My hon. Friend is making an important and well-thought-out speech.
