| 11 Jun 2025 | Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 942) “It is talking about all this attention and expecting people to change what they have been doing for 0.5%; that does not quite seem proportional to me. That also brings me on to a point around trust. It was really interesting to hear you talk about the satisfaction rates with the EHRC of 36% up to 85%.” | 57 |
| 11 Jun 2025 | Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 942) “It leads quite nicely on to my point, actually. How do you monitor diversity in your workforce, and what if anything do you do to encourage and support a diverse workforce?” | 31 |
| 11 Jun 2025 | Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 942) “Coming to the wider implications of what has been happening, it has been fascinating to listen to so much talk about proportionality, the grey lines, social contracts between people, and trust. When we talk about proportionality, we are talking about less than 0.5% of the population upon whom so much attention is being…” | 203 |
| 11 Jun 2025 | Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 942) “I have spoken to constituents of mine—trans women in particular—in South Derbyshire who have probably had trust eroded in the EHRC. As EHRC and as a body, you “Promote equality and diversity, eliminate discrimination, and protect and promote human rights for everyone.” What message do you have for people whose trust ha…” | 66 |
| 11 Jun 2025 | Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 942) “We are talking about 0.5% of the population in my group and 51% of the rest of the population, who probably did not know they were sharing a space with a trans woman.” | 33 |
| 9 Jun 2025 | Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords] “I draw the attention of the House to my being the founder of Labour: Women in Tech and the co-chair of the all-party parliamentary group on financial technology, and to my career in data and technology prior to becoming an MP. I welcome the Government’s new approach to innovate and expedite the process and to leverage …” culture-communityeconomy-jobsother | 531 |
| 4 Jun 2025 | Business of the House “The Just the Tonic comedy festival is coming to South Derbyshire in July, the festival having chosen Elvaston castle as its venue—a place I am helping the local parish council to save as publicly owned. Who does not love comedy? Yet despite being nationally loved and generating billions across live digital streaming an…” defencefiscal-policylocal-government | 118 |
| 4 Jun 2025 | Free School Meals “I welcome wholeheartedly the announcement, not least because it means that almost 4,000 children in my constituency will benefit from free, healthy school meals, saving parents almost £500 a year. That is in addition to the breakfast clubs, of which we have two on the early adopter scheme. Does the Minister agree that …” educationcost-of-livingsocial-care | 100 |
| 4 Jun 2025 | Battery Energy Storage Sites: Safety Regulations “In common with the hon. Gentleman, I welcome renewable energy. Safety is hugely important. In my constituency there are lots of battery sites that are being placed in pockets around beautiful little villages because there are connections to the national grid. Because of the potential fire hazards and possible toxic run…” energyenvironmenthealth | 74 |
| 21 May 2025 | Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords] “I thank the Secretary of State for mentioning Kate Bush; she is the love of my life and has been since I was nine. We have repeatedly spoken about the need for a tech solution to address this issue. I have a background in data and technology and have been meeting several companies that seem between them to have a possi…” culture-communityeconomy-jobsother | 75 |
| 18 May 2025 | Mental Health Bill [Lords] “I was 11 years old when my mum first tried to take her own life; she was sectioned several times over the coming years, and until I was an adult. How will this new way of treating people and making that part of the community, as well as looking after the children of those impacted, be measured over time so that we know…” healthsocial-care | 66 |
| 13 May 2025 | Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords] “On the point of finding a solution in the round, if no credible technical solution is in sight, will the Minister confirm what non-technical legislative or regulatory measures the Government are considering to protect rights holders in the interim?” technologyculture-communityeconomy-jobs | 39 |

| 13 May 2025 | Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords] “It is wonderful to hear my hon. Friend talk about the importance of copyright and the fact that we have existing laws that we can use, but I wonder whether he is aware of the growing concern in industry about the risk of expansive US-style fair use principles creeping into UK practice and what we might do to secure our…” technologyculture-communityeconomy-jobs | 75 |
| 6 May 2025 | Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords] “I am pleased to speak in this debate in support of new clause 14, in the name of my hon. Friend the Member for Leeds Central and Headingley (Alex Sobel), to which I have added my name. The clause would give our media and creative sectors urgently needed transparency over the use of copyright works by AI models. I am su…” technologyeconomy-jobsculture-community | 789 |
| 6 May 2025 | Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords] “The recent decision by the Supreme Court that “sex” in the Equality Act 2010 refers to biological sex at birth, regardless of whether someone holds a gender recognition certificate or identifies as of a different gender, has already left many trans people feeling hurt and unseen. Does the shadow Minister agree with me …” technologyeconomy-jobsculture-community | 80 |
| 5 May 2025 | Victory in Europe and Victory over Japan: 80th Anniversary “As we mark the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day and later this summer celebrate the anniversary of Victory over Japan Day, I am reminded of the extraordinary bravery shown by so many, including our very own Ray Statham, from Newhall, in my constituency. Eighty years ago, Ray was in the English channel supporti…” defenceculture-community | 464 |
| 22 Apr 2025 | Intellectual Property: Artificial Intelligence “It is an honour to serve under your chairship, Ms McVey, and I thank my hon. Friend the Member for Bury North (Mr Frith) for securing this crucial debate—a great way to spend his birthday. I want to draw attention to the fact that my partner works in publishing. My background is not in publishing or the creative indust…” culture-communityeconomy-jobs | 547 |
| 22 Apr 2025 | Women and Equalities Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 340) “That is interesting because that leads nicely on to my next question. Dr Dhaliwal, going back to religion playing a part, what are the different ways that religious affiliation and ethnicity in the UK can intersect? What impact can these ways have on community cohesion? I know you do not like the phrase, but where ethn…” | 64 |
