“In June, the Department made the welcome announcement of legislation to allow proxy voting and remote attendance, which will help to drive up the diversity of councillors across the country, but the Government have not yet set out a timeline. Will the Minister advise the House on when a timeline will be shared, and whe…”

“I thank my hon. Friend for his passionate speech on behalf of his constituents on this difficult issue. As other Members have, I pay tribute to my police force, Surrey police. They do great work, but sadly things sometimes do go wrong. I have had to deal with a number of cases in my constituency office where the proces…”

“There are some tragic stories of horrendous errors with EHCPs in my constituency. Does my hon. Friend agree that it is incredibly important that accountability is maintained in the system? If we cannot get it right now, how will we be able to—under the potential threat of EHCPs no longer existing—ensure that families a…”

“It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Twigg. Supporters of the switch-off argue that most homes will have gigabit broadband by the 2030s, but of course theoretical access does not guarantee adoption by households. Around 13 million to 19 million adults are estimated to be living in digital poverty, and …”

“Just to round off, we have talked a lot about how it is different now to what it was, but the report also clearly set out the fact that it is not the same experience for all young people when it comes to that equality of access. Could you outline for us the greatest disparities that you see in terms of access to play?”

“Nicola and Ingrid, do you have anything to add very quickly?”

“This very much follows on from what Tom has been talking about. We heard from the previous Committee that things are similar to the past, but also very different in terms of the outside environment. Can you give us an overview of what the risks of outdoor play are, but also of some of the perceived risks? Do you want t…”

“Under the current situation, where there is perhaps not the legislation to do it formally, how do we get young people involved in that process of saying how they would like to see their streets and their communities made better for them and more accessible for play?”

“You touched there on the “No ball games” signs. I do not know who to start with, so I will start with Eugene. What are your thoughts on how we rethink our built environment to encourage outdoor play?”

“It has been a privilege to speak in this debate honouring the legacy of Sir David Amess—an MP who tirelessly advocated for his constituents.
