Speeches by Hall.

“Samantha, with this ongoing industrial action, do you think that the Government will be able to meet their 18-week waiting list target by 2029? Is that still realistic?”

“Matthew, what did DHSC do to improve NHS England’s management of the programme?”

“Just going back to what was, and the lack of governance in at least two of the programmes, monitoring and accountability from your end must have been an issue at that time, which you can now hopefully rectify. You have clear goals, but they have to be monitored to see whether people are meeting them.”

“I would like to carry on with that theme and the tracking of spending on the transformation programmes. Sir Jim, why did the elective recovery board, which you chaired, not track spending on the transformation programmes, despite being responsible for oversight of the programmes?”

“The impact of having it done elsewhere must have been significant.”

“In terms of whether the programmes had capacity, or resource delivery, was there a delay in getting that information to you so that you could respond?”

“Having that fragmentation must have had an impact.”

“Samantha, was NHS England doing enough to understand the costs and benefits of the programmes?”

“Presumably, you will be taking that forward with other programmes that come forward as well. As you said, having that collective oversight makes it easier to be able to respond in real time. As I said before, in terms of capacity and financial management, if you have it in lots of pockets rather than under one umbrella…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Sir Jeremy. In recent years, many Hong Kong families have made the brave decision to uproot their lives and move halfway around the world to Britain. They came here on the strength of our word—a clear promise that if they held BNO status, they would have a route to set…”

“I absolutely agree with my hon. Friend, and I thank her for that intervention. Fairness and the rule of law cut both ways. These families played by the rules, paid the fees and came here legally. They have every right to expect that the path to settlement and citizenship remains exactly as was set out. Every day in War…”

“11. What steps she is taking to improve data sharing between her Department and local authorities.”

“In Warrington South, too many children entitled to free school meals are missing out because of avoidable administrative barriers. No child should have to sit in a classroom hungry; every child deserves a full stomach and a fair chance. A simple change would make a big difference and ensure that every eligible child go…”

“As we rise for the summer recess, I want to take a moment to reflect on the real work happening back home in Warrington South in our schools, our community spaces, our hospitals and our homes. Parliament may not be sitting much longer, but that does not stop the work at home to deliver the change that our communities v…”

“8. What steps he is taking to support high street SMEs.”

“Warrington South is home to brilliant businesses such as Gourmand!, an award-winning French café, Mamars, a wonderful artisan bakery and deli, Hideout, which serves the best piña colada in Warrington —apparently—and the soon-to-open Zak’s Shack, a new parent and child-focused café in Stockton Heath. Such businesses are…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairship, Dr Murrison. I put on the record my thanks to my hon. Friend the Member for Crewe and Nantwich (Connor Naismith) for securing this important debate on a topic that very much affects my constituency. My constituents in Warrington South are not asking for the moon. They are…”

“We should exploit any opportunities to improve access wherever possible. As I was saying, communities like Warrington do not just need more transparency. We need more capacity and we need delivery that lives up to the promises we have been given.”

“If we want to raise a generation of healthy, thriving children, we must stop treating children’s health as an afterthought. This week, I launched a new survey asking constituents to feed into my work, and I thank everyone who has responded. The responses have helped to shape my contribution to this debate today, along …”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Dame Siobhain. I will speak to the clause and from my experience of representing an area that already benefits from the use of zero emission vehicles. Warrington’s Own Buses, our municipal bus company, set out an ambition to replace its entire diesel fleet with a fleet…”
