Speeches by Hall.

“There is one issue that comes up repeatedly. If you are a young person training to be an electrician or an engineer, for instance, you might turn up on site having only read in the classroom about how to use certain tools. There are concerns that these young people will turn up on the day not knowing how to use tools o…”

“The hon. Gentleman makes an important point. As I was saying, it is clear that congenital hyperinsulinism is not just a medical diagnosis; it is a whole-life diagnosis. It affects emotional health, finances, education, work, family life and more. Far too often, families say they feel invisible, left to navigate this jo…”

“I beg to move, That this House has considered the impact of congenital hyperinsulinism on patients and their families. It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Ms Butler. I dedicate my remarks to my constituents Joanne and Gavin and their daughter Ibbie, who is two years old. Ibbie lives with a rare and serious …”

“I am a former member of Warrington borough council and the cabinet member for children and young people. I am also a member of several trade unions, and they are all outlined in my entry in the register of interests.”

“The solution surely is to take the profit out of the whole process.”

“Thank you, Chair. In my previous life, I was a cabinet member for children and young people, so I have a good grasp of some of the challenges in that sector. One of the biggest issues we faced was private providers and residential placement costs. I would be interested to hear your thoughts on this. One of the things t…”

“We cannot grow our economy using a toolkit that still assumes that the south-east is the default. We need a Green Book that reflects the reality of 2025, not the London-centric logic of the past. This is our moment to rewrite the rules and deliver the growth, dignity and opportunity that the people of Warrington South …”

“I absolutely agree with my hon. Friend. Things are deeply unfair as they stand. Delivering fair public spending in all our regions is urgently needed. We cannot grow our economy using a toolkit that still assumes that the south-east is the default. We need a Green Book that reflects the reality of 2025, not the London-…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Pritchard. For too long, my constituents in Warrington South have been told to wait their turn—for infrastructure, for investment and for opportunity. This Labour Government were elected to change the way this country works, and nowhere is that more urgently needed …”

“Community pharmacy funding is at a critical juncture, with many pharmacies in my constituency facing financial challenges. With running costs increasing and uncertainty around the date of the upcoming settlement, community pharmacies are concerned that there may be disruption to their business. What steps is the Depart…”

“8. What recent progress his Department has made on implementing the hub and spoke model for community pharmacy.”

“You said that it is paused at the moment. How far along in that process are we in terms of the alternative?”

“Thank you for that. In terms of delivering the analytical services and providing the capabilities for the site, and fully addressing the risks at the current site, you are confident that there is an alternative.”

“I would like to discuss the replacement analytical project. As is noted in the NAO’s Report, “Sellafield’s biggest single risk to its current and future operations is that its Analytical Services function will fail, disrupting other site operations; this is both ‘very likely’ to happen and could have a ‘very high impac…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Dr Murrison. I congratulate my hon. Friend the Member for Leigh and Atherton (Jo Platt) on securing this crucial debate. Constituencies such as mine have long faced challenges of poor connectivity. Warrington South is located at the crossroads of the north-west. It is …”

“I begin by declaring an interest: I am proud to be married to a serving Cheshire police officer. In the year ending September 2024, there were 1 million incidents of antisocial behaviour, 490,000 shop theft offences and more than 55,000 knife or sharp instrument offences. Those are not just numbers; they are real peopl…”

“Does my hon. Friend agree that community asset transfers offer a real opportunity for grassroots clubs such as mine in Warrington South, allowing for the enhancement of community facilities while also giving local people a stake in how their clubs are run, putting people over profit and retaining an identity rooted in …”

“Like the Minister, I am proud to be a Labour and Co-operative MP. Today’s announcement is a great win for our movement, putting power where it belongs: in our communities. In areas such as mine, community can be found in our proud grassroots sports teams. Will the Minister update us on what more can be done to empower …”

“Moving on to skills, I have two particular questions. One is in the short term. The first question is around the target for 6% of the civil service workforce to be part of the digital and data profession by 2025. How far along are we on that? Longer term, there is a skill shortage in this area, so what is the plan to m…”

“It is not just about taking it seriously. It is more grappling with the sheer scale of what this actually means, because it is not a small endeavour, is it?”
