  • Upcoming Business – Lords: Main Chamber 22 Jul 2026

    Greater Cambridge Development Corporation (Establishment) Order 2026 and associated regret motion in the name of Lord Lansley – Baroness Taylor of Stevenage – Lord Lansley. Orders and regulations
  • The Space Economy (UK Engagement with Space Committee Report) - Motion to Take Note 9 Jul 2026

    Before the Minister sits down, at several points in the Government’s response to the Select Committee’s report, they say that more detail will come forward in the “spring space publication”—not my language, the Government’s. The Minister has not said when we might expect to see that important spring space publication.
  • The Space Economy (UK Engagement with Space Committee Report) - Motion to Take Note 9 Jul 2026

    My Lords, it is a great pleasure to follow the noble Baroness and to participate in this debate, as indeed it was a pleasure to be part of the committee under the superb chairmanship of the noble Baroness, Lady Ashton. We are able to say that, for a sessional committee, we produced something of great substance in a very short space of time. It is only because of the support, the volumes of...
  • Railways Bill - Second Reading 7 Jul 2026

    My Lords, it is a great pleasure to follow my noble friend Lord Blencathra. I can remember British Rail, but I do not think any of us want to go back to British Rail, we want to go to something altogether better. We need the railways to succeed. We can see that when people feel that they have a reliable, punctual and enjoyable railway available to them, they will use it. Look at the rail...
  • Historical Forced Adoption - Statement 7 Jul 2026

    In 1997 and 1998, I served on the Health Select Committee, along with Ann Keen, under the chairmanship of David Hinchliffe, on the inquiry into child migration. That report led the way, not least in the sense that it promoted the responsibility of the state for what had happened. I thought that was helpfully reflected in what the Prime Minister’s Statement had to say. Gordon Brown made a...
  • Lobbying Transparency (In-house Lobbyists) Bill [HL] - Second Reading 3 Jul 2026

    My Lords, it is a great pleasure to follow the noble Viscount, Lord Stansgate. I was much entertained by his speech. He, along with the Bill’s proposer, rightly said that this is not about trying to restrict lobbying activity; rather, it is about trying to introduce transparency in lobbying activity. We want to see lobbying take place. I am reminded that Benjamin Franklin’s major...
  • Social Housing Bill [HL] - Committee (1st Day) (Continued): Amendment 51 15 Jun 2026

    I think we are most grateful to the Minister for that very positive response, and I am personally very grateful for that very encouraging response to Amendment 51. It would be great to finish day 1’s proceedings with some violent agreement that we all want to build more social homes. I beg leave to withdraw Amendment 51. Amendment 51 withdrawn. Amendment 52 not moved. House resumed.
  • Social Housing Bill [HL] - Committee (1st Day) (Continued): Amendment 51 15 Jun 2026

    In my view, this group is focused on what is in some ways the most important question, which is not just how we protect the public housing stock, but how we increase the availability of social homes, particularly social homes for rent. I think pretty much every noble Lord here was present at Second Reading, and they will recall that I spoke to that and, in particular, cited a report I had...
