:00:00. > :00:00.industries in the automotive sector that they bent on companies like
:00:00. > :00:00.Toyota, Ford who want us to the main part of the single EU market.
:00:00. > :00:25.Questions to THE SPEAKER: There's a process to
:00:26. > :00:28.follow. Wait his turn! Thank you very much, Mr Speaker, as always.
:00:29. > :00:34.The Prime Minister's attending the G7 in Japan. I've been asked to
:00:35. > :00:41.reply on his MAFF. This morning I'd meetings in ministerial colleagues.
:00:42. > :00:45.In addition to my duties in this House, I will have meetings again
:00:46. > :00:49.later today. I'm sure members 07 sit will disagree. The first priority of
:00:50. > :00:53.any Government is the defence and security of our country. Therefore,
:00:54. > :00:57.could the Chancellor outline for me, the steps this Government is taking
:00:58. > :01:04.to replace our Trident nuclear defence? My honourable friend is
:01:05. > :01:12.right. The first duty of Government is to defend the country. To for
:01:13. > :01:18.almost 70 years an independent nuclear deterrent has provided the
:01:19. > :01:20.ultimate insurance of four freedom. We'll renew Trident deterrent,
:01:21. > :01:26.bridge forward votes in this House. We ask MPs from all sides of the
:01:27. > :01:31.House to support this commitment to our national security. When she
:01:32. > :01:35.stands up, the honourable lady representing the Labour Party should
:01:36. > :01:45.inti Kate that support today. THE SPEAKER: Angela e Eagle. Thank
:01:46. > :01:53.you, thank you, Mr Speaker. We look forward to the vote on Trident. And
:01:54. > :01:59.he should get on with it! Mr Speaker, given the overnight news of
:02:00. > :02:03.the French authority's dawn raid on Google investigating allegations of
:02:04. > :02:08.aggravated financial fraud and money laundering, does the Chancellor now
:02:09. > :02:14.regret calling his cosy little tax deal with the same company good news
:02:15. > :02:20.for the British taxpayer? Well, it is good news that we are collecting
:02:21. > :02:28.money in tax from companies that paid no tax when the Labour Party
:02:29. > :02:32.was in office. Sand she seems to forget, she was the exchequer's
:02:33. > :02:38.secretary in the last Government. So, perhaps, when she stands up, she
:02:39. > :02:49.can tell us whether she ever raised with the Inland Revenue at the time,
:02:50. > :02:52.the tax affairs of Google? Mr Speaker, I think obviously the
:02:53. > :03:02.Chancellor has done a bit more research this time. I regard that as
:03:03. > :03:08.a compliment! Mr Speaker, I think from that answer, that the
:03:09. > :03:19.Chancellor is far too easily satisfied with his cosy little tax.
:03:20. > :03:22.I note that even the honourable member for Uxbridge and rice lip
:03:23. > :03:28.labelled this cosy little deal derisory. The British public think
:03:29. > :03:34.it's even worse. Despite all the rhetoric on his watch, the tax gap
:03:35. > :03:38.has actually gone up. His tax deal with the Swiss raised a fraction of
:03:39. > :03:46.the revenue he boasted that it would. And the OBR blaming the lack
:03:47. > :03:52.of resources in Revenue Customs. So why, Mr Speaker, has he sacked
:03:53. > :03:57.11,000 tax staff since 2010? And when is he going to give them the
:03:58. > :04:06.resources they need to do a proper job? Well, we increased resources
:04:07. > :04:12.for the HMRC to tackle tax evasion and avoidance. We've introdeuced a
:04:13. > :04:17.diverted profits tax so companies like Google can't shift their
:04:18. > :04:21.profits offshore nil. We made sure the banks pay a higher tax charge
:04:22. > :04:26.than they ever did under the last Labour Government. I come back to
:04:27. > :04:31.this, she was a Treasury minister, stood at this dispatch box. She's
:04:32. > :04:35.asking me what we've done to tackle tax evasion and tax avoidance. Did
:04:36. > :04:41.she ever raise, as the exchequer secretary, the tax affairs of
:04:42. > :04:48.Google? We should know this before she asks questions of this
:04:49. > :04:57.Government. Mr Speaker... THE SPEAKER: Members must calm
:04:58. > :05:03.themselves! And remain calm. Order! On both sides, they should take the
:05:04. > :05:11.lead from the right honourable and learned gentlemen, the member for
:05:12. > :05:17.Rushcliffe who's always sitting calm in a statistics manlike manner.
:05:18. > :05:23.That's the way to behave. An loo eagle. We all have the greatest
:05:24. > :05:27.respect for the Right Honourable Member for Rushcliffe. The
:05:28. > :05:32.Chancellor of the exchequer will know the exchequer secretary deems
:05:33. > :05:38.with taxes on vices not Google. I did my job in taxing vices when I
:05:39. > :05:44.was in the Treasury. He will be judged on results. He's been in
:05:45. > :05:49.office for six years. With France demanding ten times more from Google
:05:50. > :05:54.than he is, the public will make their own judgment. Mr Speaker,
:05:55. > :05:59.while Labour is campaigning to ensure the UK remains in the
:06:00. > :06:04.European Union because it's the best way to defend rights at work, as
:06:05. > :06:21.well as jobs and prosperity, the party opposite is split right down
:06:22. > :06:25.the middle. And... Mr Speaker, it's descending into vicious acrimony.
:06:26. > :06:31.Last week, the Employment Minister... Last week... Mr Speaker,
:06:32. > :06:36.last week the Employment Minister called for Brexit so there could be
:06:37. > :06:39.a bonfire of workers' rights. Does the Chancellor agree with her or
:06:40. > :06:44.does he agree with Len McCluskey that a vote to stay in the European
:06:45. > :06:53.Union is the best deal for Britain's workers? First of all, she confirmed
:06:54. > :07:00.that when she was in the Treasury, she asked absolutely no questions
:07:01. > :07:06.about the tax affairs of Google. When it comes to the European Union,
:07:07. > :07:12.as she knows, she agree on this, I think it's better Britain remains in
:07:13. > :07:16.the European Union. Why don't we have consensus on other issues, like
:07:17. > :07:21.having an independent nuclear deterrent. Let's have a consensus on
:07:22. > :07:27.supporting businesses rather than disparaging businesses. Let's have a
:07:28. > :07:31.consensus and not piling debts on the next generation but dealing with
:07:32. > :07:38.our deficit. Let's have a consensus the parties in this House should
:07:39. > :07:47.have a credible economic policy. Thank you, Mr Speaker. I think he's
:07:48. > :07:52.just agreed with Len McCluskey. The former work and Spences -- Work and
:07:53. > :07:57.Pensions Secretary said this week the Chancellor's Brexit report
:07:58. > :08:00.should not be believed by anyone. He branded the Chancellor Pinnochio
:08:01. > :08:06.with his nose just getting longser and longer with every fib.
:08:07. > :08:11.Meanwhile, the General Secretary to the TUC said the Trish remember's
:08:12. > :08:18.report caves us half a million good reasons to stay in the European
:08:19. > :08:32.Union. Who should the public listen to? I don't think it's any great
:08:33. > :08:37.revelation that different Conservative MPs have different
:08:38. > :08:42.views on the European Union. That's why we're having a referendum.
:08:43. > :08:47.Because this issue does divide parties and families and friends.
:08:48. > :08:56.And we made a commitment in our manifesto that the British people
:08:57. > :09:00.would decide this question. I might just observe, if she wants to talk
:09:01. > :09:04.about divisions in parties, whilst she's sitting here, the leader of
:09:05. > :09:08.the Labour Party is sitting at home wondering whether to impeach the
:09:09. > :09:17.former member of the Labour Party for war crimes. Mr Speaker, I'm glad
:09:18. > :09:21.he agrees with Francis O'Grady. A pitty he can't get half his
:09:22. > :09:25.backbenches and his own party to agree with him. Given that the
:09:26. > :09:30.former Work and Pensions Secretary has just called the Prime Minister
:09:31. > :09:36.disingenuous and the former Tory Mayor of London called him
:09:37. > :09:40.Demmeented, I -- demeanted, I wouldn't talk about Labour splits.
:09:41. > :09:47.He needs to get his own house in order. Following the second
:09:48. > :09:50.omnishambles budget this year, the Chancellor's approval rating have
:09:51. > :09:55.collapse by 80 points amongst his own party. Given he seems to be
:09:56. > :09:59.following a similar career path... Begin he seems to be following a
:10:00. > :10:04.similar career path, isn't it time he turned to Michael Portillo for
:10:05. > :10:08.advice? Last week, the former would be leader said of the Queen's
:10:09. > :10:14.Speech, after 23 years of careful thought about what they would like
:10:15. > :10:22.to do in power... Order. This question will be heard. Those
:10:23. > :10:27.preyting away should cease doing so, it is stupid and counter-productive.
:10:28. > :10:31.After 23 years of careful thought about what they would like to do in
:10:32. > :10:35.power, Michael Portillo said, the answer is nothing. There is nothing
:10:36. > :10:39.they want to do with office or power. The Government has nothing to
:10:40. > :10:46.do, nothing to say and thinks nothing. That's what he said. But
:10:47. > :10:51.even this nothing Queen's Speech has caused a revolt on his own
:10:52. > :10:57.backbenches and caused another U-turn to force the Government to
:10:58. > :11:01.defeat in its legislative programme in 92 years. Mr Speaker... Mr
:11:02. > :11:05.Speaker, doesn't that tell you all you need to know about this Prime
:11:06. > :11:10.Minister and Chancellor? It seems they can't even get their
:11:11. > :11:18.backbenches to vote for them. Nothing without a fight. I tell you
:11:19. > :11:23.what we've done in recent weeks, we've taken another million people
:11:24. > :11:29.out of tax altogether. We have frozen fuel duty. We've cut business
:11:30. > :11:33.rates for small businesses. We've seen the deficit fall by another ?16
:11:34. > :11:39.billion. We delivered a record number of jobs and introduced a
:11:40. > :11:44.national living wage. That's what we've been up to. What have the
:11:45. > :11:48.Labour Party been up to? She talks of ewe turns. They've turned the
:11:49. > :11:54.Labour Party from a party that gave Britain its nuclear deterrent to a
:11:55. > :11:59.pear that wants to scrap it. A party that created the academies programme
:12:00. > :12:04.which now wants to abolish them. A party that once courted businesses
:12:05. > :12:08.now disparages them. The prawn cocktail offences is just plain
:12:09. > :12:11.offensive these days. They've gone from a Labour Party that won
:12:12. > :12:13.elections to a Labour Party that's going to go on losing though
:12:14. > :12:24.elections. Mr Speaker, with 29 days to go
:12:25. > :12:29.before the most important decision in this country has faced in a
:12:30. > :12:34.generation we have a government in utter chaos, split down the middle,
:12:35. > :12:39.at war with itself, the stakes could not be higher and yet this
:12:40. > :12:44.government is at the mercy of its own rebel backbenchers, unable to
:12:45. > :12:48.get their agenda through Parliament, instead of providing the leadership
:12:49. > :12:55.the country needs they are facing a bitter proxy war over the leadership
:12:56. > :13:03.of their party. I noticed that all of the Brexit supporters have been
:13:04. > :13:17.banished from the front bench. CHEERING
:13:18. > :13:23.Well, Mr Speaker... It's nice to see the Justice Secretary here. I think
:13:24. > :13:29.the Chancellor has put the rest of his Brexit colleagues in detention.
:13:30. > :13:33.Instead of providing the leadership the country needs they are fighting
:13:34. > :13:36.a bitter proxy war over the leadership of their own party
:13:37. > :13:43.instead of focusing on the national interest, they are focusing on their
:13:44. > :13:49.narrow self-interest. We need a government that will do the best for
:13:50. > :13:56.Britain. What we've got is a Conservative Party focused only on
:13:57. > :14:00.themselves. CHEERING She talks about our Parliamentary
:14:01. > :14:07.party, let's look at hers. They are like rats deserting a sinking ship.
:14:08. > :14:12.We've got the shadow health minister wants to be the mayor for Liverpool,
:14:13. > :14:16.the member for Bury South wants to be the mayor for Manchester. The
:14:17. > :14:21.shadow leader wants to be the mayor for both cities. When we said we
:14:22. > :14:27.were creating job opportunities, we didn't mean for the whole Shadow
:14:28. > :14:31.Cabinet. They are like a Parliamentary party on day release,
:14:32. > :14:36.are they? When the honourable lady is here, they know the member for
:14:37. > :14:44.Islington will be back and it is four more years of hard labour.
:14:45. > :14:47.Today we are voting on a Queens speech that delivers economic
:14:48. > :14:54.security, protects national security, enhances life chances for
:14:55. > :14:59.the disadvantaged, it doesn't matter who stands at the dispatch box for
:15:00. > :15:03.the Labour Party, these days they are dismantling our defences,
:15:04. > :15:09.wrecking our economy, burdening people with debt and in their own
:15:10. > :15:14.report published this week called Labour Pars future, surprisingly
:15:15. > :15:22.long, they say this, they are becoming increasingly irrelevant to
:15:23. > :15:33.the working people of Britain. CHEERING
:15:34. > :15:44.Thank you, Mr Speaker, what a privilege it is to be called by you.
:15:45. > :15:49.If the Remain campaign has its way, I will have two apply to Jean-Claude
:15:50. > :15:59.Juncker by e-mail to speak. A wonderful example of European, not
:16:00. > :16:04.EU, cooperation. The Fuser Large is built in this country and the wings
:16:05. > :16:10.in Germany. Whether we remain inside or outside the EU will have no
:16:11. > :16:15.affect on this business. As the Chancellor knows, it is trade and
:16:16. > :16:22.hard work of businessmen and women that create jobs and prosperity not
:16:23. > :16:29.politicians and bureaucrats. It is their job is to nurture growth and
:16:30. > :16:43.enterprise... Order! I was looking for? For a question. Does my right
:16:44. > :16:46.honourable friend agree it is to nurture business and not make
:16:47. > :16:53.threats against enterprise and aspiration? Icon plie agree with my
:16:54. > :16:57.honourable friend that jobs and enterprise are created through the
:16:58. > :17:06.ingenuity of private businesses that we should support and nurture in
:17:07. > :17:15.this house. Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. Lachlan brain is seven
:17:16. > :17:21.years old and he attends the Gaelic medium primary school in Dingwall in
:17:22. > :17:25.the Scottish Highlands. Next week, as the Home Secretary is currently
:17:26. > :17:32.briefing him, the home Department plans to deport him and his family
:17:33. > :17:38.despite the fact that he arrived through a Scottish Government
:17:39. > :17:45.initiative from the Home Office to attract people to live and work in
:17:46. > :17:49.the region. This case has been front page news in Scotland. What does the
:17:50. > :17:57.Chancellor have to say to his family and the community who want him to
:17:58. > :18:02.stay? As I understand it, the family don't meet the immigration criteria.
:18:03. > :18:05.The Home Secretary says she is very happy to write to the Aiton
:18:06. > :18:12.honourable gentleman on the details of the specific case. This has been
:18:13. > :18:17.going on for weeks and that frankly is not good enough. Appeals have
:18:18. > :18:22.been made to the Home Secretary by the First Minister, the local MP,
:18:23. > :18:27.the local MSP, the community, it is wall-to-wall across the media of
:18:28. > :18:31.Scotland and the Chancellor of the Exchequer clearly knew nothing about
:18:32. > :18:39.it. The problem in the Highlands of Scotland is not immigration, it has
:18:40. > :18:46.been emigration. Even at this late stage, knowing nothing about it,
:18:47. > :18:53.speak to the Home Secretary, speak to the Prime Minister and get this
:18:54. > :19:02.sort of -- sorted out. The Home Secretary will write on the details
:19:03. > :19:06.of the case. Can I suggest to the Scottish Nationalists party, they
:19:07. > :19:11.have substantial tax and enterprise powers and if they want to attract
:19:12. > :19:14.people to the Highlands of Scotland, why don't they create an
:19:15. > :19:18.entrepreneurial Scotland that people want to move to from the rest of the
:19:19. > :19:25.United Kingdom where they can grow their business and have a successful
:19:26. > :19:38.life? Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. Why is the Chilcott
:19:39. > :19:41.reported not being published before the referendum? Is it because the
:19:42. > :19:45.Prime Minister and the Chancellor don't want the public to be reminded
:19:46. > :19:50.how the government of the day and the establishment are prepared to
:19:51. > :19:54.produce dodgy dossiers, make things up and distort the facts to con the
:19:55. > :20:02.public into supporting something they otherwise wouldn't ahead of the
:20:03. > :20:09.EU referendum? No, because it is an independent report and they decide
:20:10. > :20:16.when to produce it. In the spirit of consensus Mr Speaker, may I say that
:20:17. > :20:20.there are few things that unite the house more than a concentration on
:20:21. > :20:24.the periodic reviews of the boundary commission which has been studied
:20:25. > :20:31.with fierce intensity and covered as eyes. We do note that the electorate
:20:32. > :20:37.of the royal Boehner of Kensington and Chelsea has declined preserver
:20:38. > :20:41.severely -- precipitately and against all logic. Should the Prime
:20:42. > :20:49.Minister be concerned about this and what should he be doing? I thought
:20:50. > :20:56.he was the member of party -- parliament for Ealing. They are
:20:57. > :21:08.drawing up the boundaries and we will see their proposals.
:21:09. > :21:17.Will the Chancellor, Barnardo 's, the oldest children's charity
:21:18. > :21:22.celebrating 150 years of supporting and protecting the honourable
:21:23. > :21:25.children? Does he agree that young people need support beyond the age
:21:26. > :21:31.of 18 to maximise life chances and that the government knew care
:21:32. > :21:36.leavers, and which extends the duty of care to 25 is a fitting way to
:21:37. > :21:41.build an Barnardo 's proud history of giving young people best
:21:42. > :21:46.opportunities in life? I certainly agree with my right honourable
:21:47. > :21:50.friend that Barnardos is a brilliant charity and we should congratulate
:21:51. > :21:53.them on the work that they do. We have huge responsibility to the
:21:54. > :21:58.people in the care of the state and that does not end when they are 18
:21:59. > :22:03.years old. That's why in the Queens speech we are announcing new
:22:04. > :22:07.measures to include support from a personal adviser until they are 25
:22:08. > :22:10.and make sure other bodies like local authorities have care for
:22:11. > :22:14.those people and make sure all the opportunities are brought to their
:22:15. > :22:19.attention. It is part of the life chances strategy that lies at the
:22:20. > :22:24.heart of the Queens speech. The Chancellor wanted a march of the
:22:25. > :22:29.maker. Hundreds of Steelworkers are marching for their future and their
:22:30. > :22:33.communities. Why does the government backed China's bid for market
:22:34. > :22:41.economy status against the interests of the steelworkers? Why does he
:22:42. > :22:44.block tariffs against the interests of steelworkers. When will he put
:22:45. > :22:52.the interests of steelworkers ahead of his own? Of course, our thoughts
:22:53. > :22:58.are with the and their families at very difficult time. If we take a
:22:59. > :23:02.step back, we should all acknowledge that there is a global crisis in the
:23:03. > :23:06.steel industry that tens of thousands of jobs have been lost
:23:07. > :23:13.across Europe alone and many tens of thousands Billy on that. We are
:23:14. > :23:18.taking specific action today to help Tata and the port but works and
:23:19. > :23:21.related works across the country and the Business Secretary has been in
:23:22. > :23:27.India with the First Minister of Wales in a cross-party effort.
:23:28. > :23:30.Nationally, we have taken action to reduce energy charges are an energy
:23:31. > :23:34.intensive industries, we have taken action to make sure there is more
:23:35. > :23:39.flexibility with emission regulations, doing everything we can
:23:40. > :23:42.to help this industry at a very difficult time including making sure
:23:43. > :23:53.there are top tariffs on Chinese dumping and as a result on tariffs
:23:54. > :24:06.on Rebar still, those imports are down 90%. Would the Chancellor
:24:07. > :24:13.comment on the fact that Lord sugar has joined the government as Empress
:24:14. > :24:20.-- enterprise are show that people are abandoning the Labour Party. And
:24:21. > :24:29.can he confirmed that he has no plans for a sugar tax? We have hired
:24:30. > :24:34.Lord Sugar to head enterprise and he will bring knowledge and enterprise.
:24:35. > :24:43.Apparently, he has told the Labour Party, you're fired! I have a
:24:44. > :24:47.14-year-old autistic constituent who got on very well at primary school
:24:48. > :24:55.but since moving to secondary school has found them on compromising,
:24:56. > :24:59.leaving him with special school as his only option. What will the
:25:00. > :25:02.Chancellor do to make sure when the independent expert group looking at
:25:03. > :25:06.initial teacher training reports back that ministers will ensure that
:25:07. > :25:12.specific autism training performs part of their curriculum? I think
:25:13. > :25:15.the honourable lady raises an important issue and I think she will
:25:16. > :25:23.have a lot of sympathy from colleagues around the house. The
:25:24. > :25:26.Education Secretary has raised her concerns and shares her concerns and

:27:54. > :28:00.Union. Would the Chancellor join me in welcoming the crew of HMS Duncan,
:28:01. > :28:04.the last of the type 45 destroyers presently moored in London for the
:28:05. > :28:09.Battle of Jutland commemorations. Would he support the work that the

:28:24. > :28:27.on behalf of this country to keep us safe and to represent Britain around
:28:28. > :28:34.the world and of course we return them a duty of care and that is

:28:52. > :28:54.the Chancellor changed his view since 2003 when he said that you
:28:55. > :29:03.wish and fees were attacks on learning? Back then, the Labour

:29:20. > :29:26.This has given us the best universities in the world and the

:29:31. > :29:35.an incredible policy to abolish tuition fees that they introduced

:31:25. > :31:30.We want a great public broadcaster. We have agreed a deal with the BBC
:31:31. > :31:34.that they have welcomed. On the specific issue she raises, that was
:31:35. > :31:40.an operational decision by the BBC and not a decision taken by the
:31:41. > :31:47.government. We have a great national public broadcaster in the BBC. We
:31:48. > :31:51.don't want a newspaper in the form of the BBC. As newspapers move
:31:52. > :31:56.online, the BBC want to be careful about what information they have on
:31:57. > :32:03.their website so we can also have a flourishing private press. I think
:32:04. > :32:08.the BBC have got that balance right. Will the Chancellor, firm and
:32:09. > :32:14.explain as the House of Commons library and the ONS figures for 2015
:32:15. > :32:21.clearly show that as we export 44% of goods and services within the
:32:22. > :32:26.single market, why it is that in relation to the other 27 member
:32:27. > :32:32.states we run a disastrous loss or deficit on these exports of 68
:32:33. > :32:37.billion per annum, up 9 billion from last year alone whereas Germany with
:32:38. > :32:44.the same 27 runs a profit or surplus of a massive 82 billion. Isn't that
:32:45. > :32:53.a bad deal? We are a massive exporter of services and they
:32:54. > :32:57.represent a 80% of the economy. We are home to one of the most
:32:58. > :33:02.successful car industries in the world and we export to the
:33:03. > :33:06.continent. We are part of the European Supply chain and that is
:33:07. > :33:11.why leading businesses are in favour of is remaining in the European
:33:12. > :33:15.Union. We disagree on this issue and that is why together we stood on the
:33:16. > :33:26.manifesto to have a referendum and let the people decide. Thank you, Mr
:33:27. > :33:29.Speaker. Headteachers, NHS, private-sector employers in my
:33:30. > :33:34.constituency are telling me they have few if any qualified applicants
:33:35. > :33:38.for a range of skilled roles and too many experienced staff are leaving.
:33:39. > :33:43.The single most common reason for this crisis is the cost of rental
:33:44. > :33:47.and purchase housing in west London which the government's housing
:33:48. > :33:56.policies will not addressed. Even the subsidies to buy... Order!
:33:57. > :34:00.Order! I'm sorry to say to the honourable lady, one sentence with a
:34:01. > :34:06.question at the end of it and we must press on. Will the Chancellor
:34:07. > :34:13.acknowledge this recruitment and retention crisis and do something
:34:14. > :34:16.about it? We have 25,000 more clinically trained staff in our
:34:17. > :34:21.national health service but we agree with her that there is a challenge
:34:22. > :34:25.of housing in London. I met with Sadik Khan earlier this week and we
:34:26. > :34:32.are going to see where we can agree with others is that can address that
:34:33. > :34:36.issue. In my right honourable friend's enthusiast and to bludgeon
:34:37. > :34:41.the voter into supporting the European Union that they don't
:34:42. > :34:48.really like, how can he justify planning to break the law? Is he
:34:49. > :34:53.aware that the public Administration select committee has now published
:34:54. > :35:03.three legal opinions from Speaker's Council, from... THEY TALK OVER EACH
:35:04. > :35:07.OTHER I hope the sentence is coming to an
:35:08. > :35:17.end with a question at the end of it. Very briefly. They make it
:35:18. > :35:21.perfectly clear that it is illegal for the government to keep their
:35:22. > :35:30.pro-EU propaganda on the government website during the third period.
:35:31. > :35:36.Turing the period, the government will comply with the law. Can I make
:35:37. > :35:40.a general observation. We have fought for the referendum which is
:35:41. > :35:47.taking place with huge issues at stake about Britain's economy,
:35:48. > :35:52.Britain's security and place in the world. Let's debate the substance
:35:53. > :35:55.rather than the process and then the British people will feel they have
:35:56. > :36:04.had a range of opinions and they can make their own mind up. The care
:36:05. > :36:06.sector faces a crisis made worse by the failure of the Chancellor to
:36:07. > :36:12.properly fund increases in the minimum wage. Local government
:36:13. > :36:17.Association has asked the Chancellor to bring forward ?700 million of
:36:18. > :36:22.care funding from 2019 to this year and next year to help with those
:36:23. > :36:28.extra costs. Will the Chancellor listen to local councils and form
:36:29. > :36:32.his own minimum wage policy? Of course we always listen to local
:36:33. > :36:37.authorities and we have given them the power which many have used to
:36:38. > :36:42.apply a social care precept and that has come in in April in many areas.
:36:43. > :36:46.At the same time, we have put more money into the better care fund and
:36:47. > :36:53.we are confident that social care is funded. More needs to be done to
:36:54. > :36:57.help the social care sector and the key is going to be integration with
:36:58. > :36:59.the national health service in the coming years so it is much more
:37:00. > :37:05.seamless as a service for our citizens. Last year at the
:37:06. > :37:10.Conservative Party conference, the Prime Minister said that the future,
:37:11. > :37:16.for we the state provided was shameful. The Dell or early grave on
:37:17. > :37:21.the streets. Yesterday the Prison Reform Trust produced a report
:37:22. > :37:26.identifying that far too high a proportion of children in care come
:37:27. > :37:35.in touch with the criminal justice system. Will he ensure that policies
:37:36. > :37:38.are implemented that prevents the unnecessary contact between the
:37:39. > :37:44.criminal justice system and children in care so that they can have a good
:37:45. > :37:47.future? I think he speaks very powerfully and, of course, we've got
:37:48. > :38:00.to have a care system that does the very best for children. The Queens
:38:01. > :38:04.speech has measures in that respect. The key thing is reforming our
:38:05. > :38:07.prison system so that people are punished for crimes but have a
:38:08. > :38:13.chance to rehabilitate themselves and that is one of the reforms I am
:38:14. > :38:17.proudest to be part of. A Southampton letting agency has been
:38:18. > :38:21.banned from trading for three years for not giving tenants their
:38:22. > :38:31.deposits back and using them for other purposes. The situation as far
:38:32. > :38:35.as letting agencies is concerned is that they are almost completely
:38:36. > :38:40.regulated and it is potluck as to whether residents get a fey deal or
:38:41. > :38:46.not. Is the Chancellor planning to do anything about this? We are
:38:47. > :38:50.looking to make sure that people who rent are getting proper consumer
:38:51. > :38:59.protection including from landlords who unreasonably withhold deposits.
:39:00. > :39:14.Order, order. Yes, points of order, at least a three course meal in my
:39:15. > :39:15.experience. Point of order. Thank you. I
