2026-04-13 English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill
My Lords, I am grateful for the words used by the noble Lord, Lord Hendy. To correct one of his points, the reason that my taxi is worth only £1,000 despite its very low mileage is because of the emissions standards in London, not because it is useless o

My Lords, I should first disclose my interests as the owner of a wheelchair-accessible London taxi and a past CEO of the manufacturer of London taxis. I thank the co-signers of my two amendments, the noble Baronesses, Lady Brinton and Lady Grey-Thompson
2026-03-24 Public Transport: Accessibility
My Lords, I declare my interest as the owner of a wheelchair-accessible taxi. What is the Minister’s ambitious timetable to finish the work to make all public transport wheelchair accessible?
2026-03-05 English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill
On taxi accessibility, is the Minister arguing that the local requirements of disabled people might be different in one area from those in another? Surely, that is completely wrong, because the whole purpose of this is to organise transport—that a disabl

My Lords, I rise on this St Piran’s Day to carry forward the millstone of ensuring accessibility just a bit, knowing that so many disabled people still struggle with accessibility every day, even 30 years after we legislated to make a change. I am indebt

I thank the Minister for his point, but I am not sure that I entirely agree with him and I look forward to the meeting and to Report. In the meantime, I withdraw my amendment.
2026-01-22 Retail and Hospitality Sector
First, I must declare my interest, in that my wife, Victoria, is chairman of VisitEngland—what older Peers might call the English Tourist Board. I congratulate all noble Lords who have made their maiden speeches. I congratulate the noble Baroness, Lad
2025-12-08 English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill
My Lords, I think I might have discovered why Governments of all flavours make their legislation so heavy and long—in the case of this Bill, 371 pages, 93 clauses and 34 schedules. It is to enable any Peer to speak about the one subject they know about a
2025-11-24 Planning and Infrastructure Bill
My Lords, I thank the Minister for her Amendments 31A and 31B, which is very similar, as she said, to Amendment 31, which I proposed. The noble Lord, Lord Hendy, is a practical transport expert—he knows how to mend a bus—as I hope I am, although his e

2025-10-22 Planning and Infrastructure Bill
My Lords, first, I declare my interests as a taxi proprietor and driver of a wheelchair-accessible taxi. The reason why it is wheelchair-accessible is that I introduced that feature into the manufacture of taxis when I ran that business. I also introduce
2025-09-01 Animals (Low-Welfare Activities Abroad) Act 2023
My Lords, will the Minister confirm that the commitment previously given to provide an opt-out for certified zoos will be part of these regulations when they are published?
2025-04-28 Engineering Biology (Science and Technology Committee Report)
My Lords, a long time ago I had the privilege of being responsible for an engineering company that made the London taxi, and I had 1,000 employees at the age of 31. Quite a few of those people were in our foundries business, making components for other
2025-01-09 Long-duration Energy Storage (Science and Technology Committee Report)
My Lords, this is a very good report by the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee, and I thank all our great staff, but I regret that I cannot be as complimentary about the Government’s response. The rules of the House of Lords prohibit a commi
2024-12-11 House of Lords (Hereditary Peers) Bill
My Lords, in February 1987, nearly 38 years ago, I had the good fortune to be appointed chief executive of a public company at the age of 31. It was a terrifying prospect for me, the shareholders and the employees. It was an engineering and manufacturin
2024-11-11 Autumn Budget 2024
My Lords, in 1961 Viv Nicholson won £152,319—the equivalent of about £4.3 million today. She, or rather her husband Keith, won it on the Littlewoods football pools. It was unimaginable wealth, but she spent it in a few months. She gained flashy furs and

My Lords, I thank everybody for their constructive points and for the education that I have received through this process. I beg leave to withdraw my amendment.
2024-04-24 Leasehold and Freehold Reform Bill
I am sorry to interrupt my noble friend again. One of the problems I see with this is the great difficulty in making a change except through statutory instruments, and the amount of time this takes. Whenever the Secretary of State decides that a change m

2024-02-06 Automated Vehicles Bill [HL]
I find it distressing to disagree with the noble Baroness, but I am talking about the reality of the position. Even though I wish the world were different, I cannot agree that we can regulate to make it different in this one Bill. I thank my noble fri
