2026-06-18 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I support the noble Lord, Lord Berkeley, in this group of amendments. We are fortunate to have air ambulance services operating in the United Kingdom. It is important to stress that these are typically not government-provided services; they
2026-06-18 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I start by repeating my interest, which I declared on Tuesday, as a current pilot, aircraft owner and operator. On Tuesday, we had a good debate around general aviation, when my noble friend Lord Kirkhope and others took pains to explain the be
2026-06-18 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, my noble friend Lord Moylan has done the Committee a service by bringing to our attention some of the conflicts within the Bill in terms of rule and regulation-making powers. I should add that I am a member of the Delegated Powers Committee. I
2026-06-16 Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I start with a couple of declarations of interest. I am a current pilot of light aircraft. I also own and operate an aircraft and am a member of the Light Aircraft Association, and I have worked and continue to work extensively in the civil aer
2026-06-11 Rural Economy
My Lords, I declare at the outset that I live in rural Devon and own a small farm. This House has a great deal of experience and expertise in farming and rural affairs, as demonstrated in the debate. However, I lament the experience that has been lost
2026-04-16 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, I have involvement with two Motions in this group. The first is Motion E, which relates to Amendment 12, which would transfer the responsibility for dealing with fly-tipping from landowners to the local waste authority. When we considered the a
2026-03-11 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, I spoke on this subject in Committee; I did so with considerable wariness given the strength and distinguished nature of the lawyers who were stressing the importance of open justice. I listened to their speeches incredibly carefully and the H
2026-03-11 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, I support my noble friend Lady Buscombe in the thrust of what she is seeking to achieve with her Amendment 387A. I do not think I heard my noble friend say that this would be a panacea or the answer to this complex situation, which clearly need
2026-03-04 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, I am afraid that I really cannot let the Minister get away with that. I think that all Members who have spoken in today’s debate, and in previous debates, are absolutely unanimous about the degree to which there is a problem. I do not accept th
2026-03-04 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, we covered these matters pretty thoroughly during discussion of a number of amendments in Committee. As we are now on Report, I shall get quickly to the nub of the issue that I should like to discuss, which reflects a lot of what my noble frien
2026-02-25 Crime and Policing Bill
2026-02-25 Crime and Policing Bill
For the administrative ease of the House, I have not moved Amendment 14, but I do have another amendment in this group, Amendment 21, which I do intend to talk to, if that is in order.
2026-02-25 Crime and Policing Bill
I do not wish to move the amendment.
2026-02-25 Crime and Policing Bill
2026-02-25 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, I am grateful for the support of my noble friend. This is an important issue. I have campaigned for many years around fly-tipping and the importance of having a stronger regulatory settlement, so I very much support my noble friend’s amendme
2026-02-11 Smart Motorways
My Lords, can the noble Baroness comment on why, on the section of the M3 between junction 2 and junction 4a, the rate at which people have been killed or seriously injured has increased by around a third?
2026-02-03 Police Reform White Paper
My Lords, the Government should be commended for coming forward with bold proposals. It is clear that the existing structures are rooted in a situation from way before we had the levels of mobility, technology and new crimes that are coming forward and t
2026-01-22 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, it is with great trepidation that I speak, very briefly. Having heard such powerful legal voices discussing these issues—and I hugely respect the legal expertise that we have in the House—on the basis of what we have heard and how the Governmen
2026-01-22 Number Plates Intended to Defeat Enforcement Cameras
My Lords, given what the Minister has quite rightly said about enforcement, why do the Government and the police appear to tolerate the use on our streets of illegal, high-powered electric motorcycles, particularly by delivery companies, which bear no re
2026-01-20 Crime and Policing Bill
I wonder whether the Minister could help us. I listened carefully to his remarks but I am not sure that I really understood the difference, as the Government define it, between “violence” and “serious violence”. We all perhaps have some ideas in our mind
2026-01-20 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, this is somewhat Groundhog Day for the Committee, as we have considered very similar amendments and issues on earlier days. All Peers who have spoken, including my noble friends Lord Shinkwin and Lord Blencathra, the noble Lord, Lord Hogan-Howe
2026-01-20 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, I would like briefly to support my noble friend Lord Blencathra in his Amendment 416I, as the Committee will not be massively surprised to hear, given that we have covered this on previous occasions. The police are turning a blind eye to the
2026-01-14 Large-scale Waste Crime
My Lords, the status quo clearly is not working. Can the Minister explain how the Kidlington site, an illegal site that grew to over 10,000 tonnes of rubbish, was allowed to happen before any effective official action was taken? It would have taken more
2026-01-07 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, my noble friend Lord Blencathra has made a very pragmatic speech on the difficulties of fare evasion and the extraordinary complexities of the ticketing and fares system in the UK. Of course, I note that the Government are legislating in this a
2026-01-07 Crime and Policing Bill
My Lords, briefly, I support my noble friend’s amendment, which seeks to fill a lacuna in Bill. It seems that the Government and my noble friend will be very close in what they trying to achieve, which is to remove these devices from sale and use and to
