My Lords, I will speak to Amendments 46, 47 and 49 in my name. To understand the importance of these amendments, one needs to appreciate the significance of the nationwide membership of the RFCAs. The 2019 Sullivan report on the RFCAs, which recommended

My Lords, I support my noble friend Lord Harlech’s Amendments 40, 41 and 45, to which I have put my name. In an era when the Secretary-General of NATO tells us that we could be at war within three to five years, while I hesitate to make life more diff

My Lords, I declare an interest as chair of the Council of Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Associations, with a bit of a history with the Reserve Forces. I thank the Minister for his call yesterday, and I congratulate the noble Lord, Lord Robertson, and his
2025-06-03 Diego Garcia Military Base
I will clarify my question. My understanding, from what I read—which is available to the public—is that the Mauritian Government have to agree even to the 40-year extension, let alone what happens at the end of that 40 years.
2025-06-03 Diego Garcia Military Base
My Lords, the Statement twice refers to guaranteeing the UK full continued control over Diego Garcia for the next 99 years and beyond. What is the exact legal position that the Government have negotiated regarding the situation beyond the year 2124, whic

2025-03-04 Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill
I am grateful to all noble Lords for their contributions. I am grateful to the Minister for his patience, but I go back to what I said earlier, which is to quote him, actually. He exhorted us to rely on the “so far as is reasonably practicable” wor

2025-03-04 Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill
