Speeches by Hinds.

“Except leading members of that sector say something different, which is that because in construction you have subcontractors to subcontractors and people working on self-employment contracts, you cannot do that in necessarily the same way, but you can with smaller organisations, where needed, collaborating with each ot…”

“That is a subject to which we will return, I believe with our second panel.”

“Thank you; your views have been put very clearly. My final question is unrelated to that. Camilla, you work with Historic Royal Palaces, and you are in one right now. Do you have any advice for Parliaments, from your breadth of experience?”

“No, that’s all right. I want to ask about payments for listed building consents. In written evidence, we have had a variety of views on this topic. There is an argument that if you charge for listed building consents and they are at economic full recovery level, you could, in return, expect to have more conservation of…”

“Thank you. I think we have broadly covered conservation officers.”

“I have to confess, I am not sure I have quite understood.”

“What are the principal differences between this Government’s groundbreaking plan to introduce mental health support teams to schools and the previous Government’s already in-progress programme to deliver mental health support teams to schools? As I like this Minister, Mr Speaker, let me give him a hint: this has been a…”

Some of the programmes that exist are incredibly well attended and very …”

“Thank you, although that does sound a bit like “If you build it, they will come.” Huw?”

“Brilliant. I will turn to Peter, but this is potentially a question for all three of you: if there is a move back towards the old schools-sports partnerships approach, does that have to be on top of the provision for the PE and school sport premium, or do you believe that it can replace part of the PE and school sport …”

“Schools sometimes complain that they are asked too much about how they use PE and the school sport premium. What is your recommendation for the further measurement of outcomes?”

“Thank you all very much.”

“It is very interesting to hear this at this stage in your tenure, when you can speak very broadly. Can I take you back to what you were saying about health in particular? Social prescribing should be a huge opportunity for sport, and sport should be a huge opportunity for the health sector. We have always had public he…”

“Go as far beyond your brief as you like.”

“I am sorry to interrupt, but it is dead hard to prove causality. It is virtually impossible.”
