Speeches by Paffey.

“You mentioned a number of things there where recommendations were not acted upon in the way that you would have liked. If you were writing the report today, would you make recommendations that boost some of those things that you have said have gone too slowly, or would you be making different recommendations completely…”

“Like my colleague, I refer to my previous interest as a lecturer at a university and a member of UCU. I was a lecturer in the humanities, in fact, so very pleased to hear Professor Press’s comments on that. Sir Philip, six years on from the review that you did, what have been the main impacts and the uptake of the reco…”

“This is probably mostly for you, Alex, but other panellists can feel free to chip in. You have spoken a little bit about how students have been affected by this crisis. Much as Jo has just commented on staff, do you want to say a bit more about what you are hearing about the impacts on students? In particular, could yo…”

“Just quickly on that, from the Russell Group’s perspective, do you perceive any of the reforms that are being asked for as change for the sake of change and being disruptive? I think that you have signalled broad agreement with them to begin with, but are there any specific concerns you have?”

“Good morning. The Secretary of State has set out five priorities for the sector to focus on around access and outcomes for students, economic growth, civic role, teaching standards and the reform packages that you have been talking about in institutions. What conversations have you had with the Secretary of State or th…”

“20. What steps her Department plans to take to limit excessive service charges imposed on leasehold properties.”

“Many leaseholders in Southampton Itchen who are still waiting for fire remediation work to be done are now being clobbered by extortionate service charges. In one case, a constituent went from paying £800 a year to £3,300 a year, with next to no clarity that that money is being spent well. Despite my recent meetings wi…”

“T2. I was delighted recently to see civic and business leaders in Southampton join the Labour council in launching their Renaissance Vision, setting out an ambitious agenda for regeneration and house building in the city. What steps will the Government take in the upcoming spending review to support and enable house bu…”

“I thank the Minister for his statement. I join him and most fellow Members—sadly, not all of them—in fully supporting my two hon. Friends over the shocking treatment that they have faced. Does the Minister agree that such an utterly disproportionate and counterproductive decision by the Israeli authorities, at a time w…”

“3. What steps she is taking with Cabinet colleagues to help tackle violence against women and girls.”

“I thank the Minister for her answer. A constituent of mine in Southampton Itchen suffered horrendous domestic and sexual abuse while she was a serving police officer, but inexplicably the rules did not allow her to take her complaint to the Independent Office for Police Conduct, and made her a victim of the very system…”

“Just on that, you say that all new places that need inspections have been known about since September 2023?”
