2026-07-23 Creative Industries: Qualifications
My Lords, I congratulate the Minister on being in her place, although a debate when you have 10 Back-Benchers behind you, all firing shots at the back of your neck, may not be the most welcome way of coming back. They may not all be killing blows, but th

My Lords, I thank my noble friend Lord Foster for bringing this subject before us. It is a difficult one. We all know why it is a difficult one. If you are taking money out of somebody’s pocket for gambling, it is not there for other subjects. It can bec

My Lords, the Government have announced a policy. That is great, but we have had other policies in this area before. What guidance can we get so that the Government are tapping into those established organisations—we have heard about the uniformed office
2026-07-21 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
My Lords, this was a Bill where the only disagreement we had was that we did not think the Government were brave enough with their own ideas. It does not often happen that we actually get through to a position, and I think we did. Just to remind ourselve

2026-07-16 Government Record on Education, Employment and Welfare
My Lords, I am afraid I could have predicted some of the lines of this debate. Indeed, in the first speech, we heard the noble Baroness, Lady Evans, saying how dreadful everything is. The response from the noble Lord, Lord Rooker, reminded me of a guard

2026-07-15 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
My Lords, I thank the noble Lord, Lord Parkinson, for reading out the list of groups that have backed these amendments; I was always terrified that I was going to miss one or two of them. We will take it as read that the noble Lord got it right. I congr

My Lords, very briefly, I do not think a worker on a special event should have any fewer rights than a worker on any other occasion.
2026-07-15 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
I thank the Minister for her reply and the noble Lord, Lord Parkinson, for his amendment. I should have commented on it, because it is a sensible suggestion. We are at the start of a positive dialogue about building. The Government had a good idea on

2026-07-15 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
My Lords, I have Amendment 17 in this group, but before I speak to it, I thank the Government for many of their amendments. They have clearly listened to the problems raised. Generally speaking, this has been a Bill of good relationships. We had a meetin
2026-07-15 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
My Lords, this is an interesting set of amendments. I think the most appealing one in the context of the Bill is from the noble Lord, Lord Harlech. There is a general principle that might be better addressed in other legislation that goes further. I will

My Lords, we come to a little triumvirate of amendments standing in my name. To take them in order, we start with the infrastructure requirements for providing any games or championship. I will not go over old ground, but I would like some assurance from
2026-07-14 Autism: Parenting Support Programmes
My Lords, the Government sound very confident about this, but on the 29th of last month, in Committee Room 10, I was in a room full of parents of people on the autism spectrum who have gone through the process. Generally, they were terrified of the idea
2026-07-09 Contemporary Cultural Boycotts
My Lords, this subject is one of those where you suddenly think, “Yes, there shouldn’t be any form of cancellation”—here, primarily on grounds of antisemitism. I have always felt it to be rather absurd that the Abrahamic religions attack each other over

I will let the noble Baroness know that I do not have to keep noble Lords up to date; it is going to let everybody know.
2026-07-07 Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Act 2026 (Establishment of Schools) (Consequential Amendments) Regulations 2026
My Lords, remembering the bit of the Bill we did when we started this, I think this is quite a sensible provision. There is no great disagreement in principle on this, certainly on my part. We have a mixed economy for schools, and indeed the previous Go
2026-06-24 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
That would be a perfectly acceptable response: that there is a capacity, that they will make sure they have the capacity to look at this and that there will be a strategy going forward. This is about clarification and finding out what happens here. As I
2026-06-24 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
My Lords, I agree with the noble Lord, Lord Doyle, on Amendment 83. As I said earlier, this amendment is just basically wrong—end of. On Amendment 86, I agree with the noble Baroness, Lady Grey-Thompson. It conforms with my experience that you have to
2026-06-24 Sporting Events Bill [HL]
I do not disagree with any of that. I would just say that it is not a core activity, so it tends to become a secondary choice and there is pressure on local government. If you come through and give a boost, local government might be able to deliver. Loca
