Speeches by Baldwin.

“I congratulate the hon. Member for Rotherham (Sarah Champion) on securing the urgent question. Let me also welcome the Minister back to Parliament, as well as to his place on the Front Bench. As the hon. Lady said, the human rights abuses taking place against the Uyghurs in Xinjiang are egregious. In government we took…”

“We seem to have regulated any sort of actual help for consumers into such a space that not enough of them are getting it.”

“We are going to come to insurance in a moment. Last week, the FCA reported that 7 million UK consumers have now bought cryptocurrency of some kind. Whose fault is that?”

“I just wondered if you had seen any that you could report to us specifically.”

“Do our constituents see any change at all?”

However I wanted to go back to the questions the Chair had about the Minister on the HMRC Board and revisit that saga we had earlier this year when HMRC turned off the helpline. My understanding is that the Chancellor at t…”

“ I think we have had two instances of this. I wondered whether you could share with us how you think having a Minister on the Board is going to affect a decision like that, which you clearly took operationally independently, but with which Ministers did not feel comfortable.”

“ So the Minister could have overruled that before it happened, last time?”

“ Obviously, a key part of your goal, which I think is still your strategic plan—is to move people much more on to online interactions—is the app. I think you shared with us some statistics earlier this year about the take-up of the app. The app seems to be quite consumer friendly.
