Speeches by Entwistle.

“You have all touched on this already, but how important is the retention of non-digital services in tackling loneliness and social isolation for older people?”

“In your experience, how much of a difference would it make if there was better provisional broadband connectivity? Would that enable more people to get online?”

“A short answer is absolutely fine.”

“My next question is probably more so for Carole first, and Caroline, you have touched on this already in terms of the “Get Britain Working” White Paper. Are the measures set out in it sufficient to help a substantial number of older people back into work?”

“My questions follow on from that flexible working aspect, so thank you for touching on that. In your opinion, how effective are the flexible working provisions in the Employment Rights Bill for older workers?”

“Q13. For retail workers in Bolton North East, the busy Christmas season is overshadowed by shoplifting, which the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers’ latest survey identifies as the leading trigger of abuse, threats and assaults. At a police drop-in in Bromley Cross, officers welcomed the Government’s commi…”

“What do you think we could be doing better as the Government, or perhaps maybe the NHS might be doing, to try to help increase that awareness and try to allow employers to access some sort of information that might increase that awareness around these sorts of pregnancies?”

“Dr Farren, your study found prevalence of psychological conditions, including PTSD and anxiety, lasting for months after miscarriage and ectopic pregnancies. How and why do these conditions emerge, and how could the risks be better mitigated?”

“To what extent does the fact that many employers might not have heard of those types of pregnancies make it more difficult for employees? What more do you think the Government and the NHS could do to try to raise awareness about those types of pregnancies?”

“No, I just needed to declare that I am a member of the GMB and to refer members to my register of interests as well.”

“I wanted to know what more the Government could be doing to try to raise awareness about some pregnancy loss and pregnancies we talked about in the first panel. Also, in your view, how far does the Employment Rights Bill go in providing some support?”

“What are some physical and emotional impacts of the lesser-known types of pregnancy loss, including molar and ectopic pregnancies?”

“I declare that I am a member of the responsible vaping APPG. This is a long overdue and important piece of legislation, and I commend my hon. and right hon. Friends on the Front Bench for bringing it before the House. My home of Bolton is confronting a dual crisis: the devastating impact of smoking and the escalating p…”

“I thank the hon. Member for his intervention and, yes, I share those concerns quite deeply. Bolton council has been doing excellent work to clamp down on illegal vapes. In September, 350 vapes were seized in raids across five locations in Bolton. Just this month, a shop received a closure order for selling illegal toba…”

“I rise to point out the recent changes to the proxy voting scheme. As a member of the Modernisation Committee, can I ask for a debate in Government time about further changes to the procedures and working practices of the House, so that we can create a more accessible and family-friendly culture?”

“I guess I mean in terms of platform liability.”

“What difference does the September announcement of NCII being made a priority offence make, in terms of the powers under the Online Safety Act?”

“So it has slightly expanded it.”

“Could you tell us a little bit about how your proposed stay-down amendment might work?”

“That’s great. Thank you.”
