2026-06-04 Local Councillors: Recruitment, Retention and Well-being
My Lords, I add my thanks to the noble Lord, Lord Forbes, for initiating this important debate. Abuse of local councillors is not new; I am afraid it goes back a long time. I was a local councillor for over 25 years—I chaired various committees and was l
2026-05-21 King’s Speech
My Lords, I welcome the opportunity to contribute to the debate today. Before I start, I congratulate the Government on the announcements today on the Gulf free trade agreement. This agreement has been a long time coming and it has been an extremely diff
2026-05-21 King’s Speech
Does the Minister agree that there is a key opportunity to reposition increased defence spending as an engine for domestic renewal and regional growth? If we anchor our sovereign defence supply chains in the towns and cities that have been too often left

2026-03-03 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
My Lords, it is really hard to follow the noble Baroness, Lady Fox, when she gives a speech like that. Amendments 193, 194, 197 and 198 hope to address the powers to designate vape-free and heated tobacco-free places. The argument, really, is that it is

I thank the Minister for her explanations and I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
2026-03-03 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
My Lords, while I am on my feet moving Amendment 149, I will also talk about the other amendments in my name. We must prevent an indiscriminate or blanket prohibition without proper scrutiny and consultation. I fear that, without these safeguards and mea
2026-03-03 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
My Lords, my Amendment 136A deals with the rapid emergence of devices with a very high puff count—so-called “big puff” devices—which are clearly designed to circumvent the spirit of existing regulation. The Tobacco and Related Products Regulations 2016,
2026-03-03 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
My Lords, I will speak to a number of the amendments laid in my name, starting with Amendments 24 and 25. Noble Lords will note that Amendment 24 seeks to establish a national register of tobacco and vape retailers. The reason I am pushing this so strong
2026-02-24 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
2026-02-24 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
I shall talk about the two amendments in my name. First, the Bill does not provide a deterrent; the proposed fixed penalty of £200 is nothing to those involved in this illicit trading and organised criminal activity. It is obvious that the unscrupulous r

I thank the Minister for her reassurances, although I am afraid that I do not agree with her. However, I accept that we have taken this as far as we can. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment.
2026-02-24 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
My Lords, the purpose of my amendment to Clause 10 is simply to ensure that heated tobacco products are explicitly addressed within the age of sale framework. I am strongly of the view that, when Parliament seeks to regulate a product, it must define it
2026-02-24 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
I will briefly speak to Amendment 26, which is in my name, about the cost implications for small retailers and convenience stores. It is really a plea to the Minister to make some money available and introduce a grant system which can assist them. Age-ve

I withdraw the amendment in my name.
2025-11-13 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
My Lords, in moving this amendment I will also speak to Amendments 148B to 148E and 149A. They follow a very similar theme to an earlier grouping that I spoke on. They seek to support the Government’s ambitions for a smoke-free generation, while ensuring

I am happy to withdraw Amendment 142.
2025-11-13 Tobacco and Vapes Bill
My Lords, my noble friend Lord Mott is unfortunately ill, so with the permission of the Committee I shall move this amendment for him. I have made a few notes of my own, so this is my speech, not his, but I feel there should be a debate on the amendment,

I thank everybody who has taken part in this debate. I shall return to this argument in a later group, so I will leave it at that and beg leave to withdraw the amendment.

My Lords, in speaking to all the amendments in this group—Amendments 140AA, 140C, 140D, 140E, 147A and 147B—I seek your Lordships’ support to ensure that the Bill is both proportionate and evidence-led and that we do not undermine the considerable effort
