Speeches by Chadwick.

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Stringer. I thank the hon. Member for Caerfyrddin (Ann Davies) for securing this important debate, and I applaud the cross-party work she is doing to ensure that Welsh farmers have a strong voice in this place. We also heard from my hon. Friend the Member for Tivert…”

“I thank the Minister for giving way; it is very gracious of him. Many young farmers in Wales have told me that they would love to watch the output of the UK creative sector, particularly on Netflix, but they cannot. They are not able to download Netflix because their broadband is not good enough. What would the Ministe…”

“When we talk about clusters of excellence, Wales must be at the forefront of the discussion. It is the birthplace of many famous musicians, actors and actresses, and the House can be assured that a steady flow of talent is in pipeline. I know that because last night I took my two sons to their first panto in Brecon, wh…”

“Will the Minister give way?”

“Do you think it would be helpful for that statement of values to be transformed into a proper legal document to guarantee patient care for those living on the borders?”

“I have another question for Simon about Powys Teaching Health Board. In your view, do proposals by Powys Teaching Health Board to extend the treatment time of Welsh patients being treated in hospitals in Shropshire and Herefordshire break the statement of values and principles that govern cross-border treatment, partic…”

“I have another question for Dr David Bailey. The Committee’s 2015 report noted that having different IT systems in Wales and England has a real impact on patient care. In your written submission you tell us that problems remain today, and I see that a lot in my inbox. Just this week I had a constituent contact me to te…”

“An active regulator is essential to securing fair prices for consumers. Residents of areas such as mine are often at the forefront of rises in petrol prices, and residents of Pontardawe are regularly left wondering why they have to pay 8p more per litre than people in nearby towns. Will the Government commit to launchi…”

“Will the Minister give way?”

“On that point, will the Minister give way?”

“I stand to speak to amendment 2 tabled by my hon. Friend the Member for Epsom and Ewell (Helen Maguire). As the Member of Parliament for Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe, I am proud to represent a constituency with a deep and enduring military history. It is home to Brecon barracks, the headquarters of the British Army in W…”

“The Welsh food and drink sector is one of the flourishing parts of the Welsh economy, and it is home to nearly 230,000 much-needed jobs in Wales. Many of those businesses are located in my constituency, and I am fortunate that many of them also come to the Royal Welsh Show in Builth Wells every July to show their wares…”

“Farmers in my constituency are very concerned by this news, as Powys was one of the hardest-hit regions in the 2001 outbreak and the trauma remains for the 2,000 livestock farmers affected. Can the Minister provide us with some further details on the conversations that he has had with the Welsh Government, and will he …”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Mr Dowd. I thank the hon. Member for Monmouthshire (Catherine Fookes) for securing the debate. Like her, I am privileged to represent a constituency that is home to some of the UK’s most powerful rivers, including the Rivers Wye, Usk and Towy. However, these national trea…”

“What are your priorities for the Port Talbot Tata Steel transition board in 2025? What is your assessment of the short and medium-term economic impact on businesses in Port Talbot as a consequence of the job losses at the Tata plant? My grandfather worked at the steelworks and the blast furnaces in the 1960s and, when …”

“In September, the Welsh Secretary announced plans for Welsh patients to receive treatment across England in an effort to drive down waiting lists in Wales, which are now the highest on record. Those plans were, seemingly, then walked back by Welsh Government Ministers. In Powys, the health board has been forced into a …”

“I thank my hon. Friend for securing this debate. He is well aware that the south-west and Wales are connected by the Severn tunnel, which is often closed—it is likely that the closures are in his region. Does he agree that that is impacting economic growth in south Wales, and is all the more reason for Wales to receive…”

“Is the Minister committed to the introduction of a no-fly zone across Sudan, including drones, as is currently the case in Darfur?”

“I thank the hon. Member for giving way and for securing this important debate. My constituency has one of the highest levels of off-gas-grid properties in the UK, with over a third of my constituents dependent on heating oil to keep their homes warm. Does the hon. Member agree that it is vital that the Government bring…”
