0:00:00 > 0:00:01that we can and re-injecting further momentum into seeing that executive
0:00:01 > 0:00:03re-established and seeing devolved government functioning all the
0:00:03 > 0:00:14people of Northern Ireland. Questions to the Prime Minister.
0:00:25 > 0:00:29May I start, Mr Speaker, by wishing all members and staff a Merry
0:00:29 > 0:00:32Christmas and a happy New Year. I'm
0:00:36 > 0:00:41I am sure the whole house will want to join me in sending our warmest
0:00:41 > 0:00:45Christmas messages to the Armed Forces who are stationed overseas.
0:00:45 > 0:00:52They make great devices on our behalf. This morning, I had meetings
0:00:52 > 0:00:55with ministerial colleagues and others and I will have further such
0:00:55 > 0:01:02meetings later today. In 2009, the Prime Minister said it
0:01:02 > 0:01:07was a tragedy that the number of children falling into the poverty
0:01:07 > 0:01:11cycle was continuing to rise. Every child deserves to have a roof over
0:01:11 > 0:01:16their head and food on the table. Yet on her watch, in Wandsworth
0:01:16 > 0:01:21alone, the number of families forced to survive on food banks is
0:01:21 > 0:01:28continuing to rise, and 2500 children, yes, children, will
0:01:28 > 0:01:34wake-up homeless on Christmas Day. My question is simple. When will
0:01:34 > 0:01:38this austerity driven government say enough is enough and put an end to
0:01:38 > 0:01:44this tragedy? Thank you, Mr Speaker. The
0:01:44 > 0:01:48honourable lady should note that this government has lifted hundreds
0:01:48 > 0:01:57of thousands of children out of absolute poverty. But I think it is
0:01:57 > 0:02:01important, it is important for all those who have heard her question to
0:02:01 > 0:02:07be aware of this. She talks of 2500 children in Wandsworth waking up
0:02:07 > 0:02:10homeless on Christmas Day. Anybody hearing that will assume that what
0:02:10 > 0:02:18that means is that 2500 children will be sleeping on our streets. It
0:02:18 > 0:02:34does not mean that.Order. Order. Honourable and right honourable
0:02:34 > 0:02:40member 's are accustomed to these exchanges taking somewhat longer. So
0:02:40 > 0:02:44be it. The questions will be heard and the answers from the Prime
0:02:44 > 0:02:52Minister will be heard. I am in no hurry at all. The Prime Minister.
0:02:52 > 0:02:56Thank you, Mr Speaker. It is important that we are clear about
0:02:56 > 0:03:00this for those who hear those questions, because as we all know,
0:03:00 > 0:03:04families with children who are accepted as homeless will be
0:03:04 > 0:03:19provided with accommodation. And I would also point out to honourable
0:03:19 > 0:03:21members opposite that statutory homeless is lower now than it was
0:03:21 > 0:03:32for most of the period of the last Labour government.
0:03:32 > 0:03:37If I could draw my right honourable friend away from Brexit which is
0:03:37 > 0:03:41about to crop up I suspect, I believe it is common knowledge that
0:03:41 > 0:03:45the Conservative party is the party that strives to protect our green
0:03:45 > 0:03:52belt. Therefore, it was a shock to me and my constituents when
0:03:52 > 0:03:56Guildford Council submitted their draft local plan. The Council are
0:03:56 > 0:04:02seeking to build 57% of the houses in their plan on green belt. Would
0:04:02 > 0:04:06my right honourable friend agree that local authorities should focus
0:04:06 > 0:04:08their imaginations on developing buildings of sufficient height,
0:04:08 > 0:04:17density and imagination on Brownfield sites, not green belt?My
0:04:17 > 0:04:22right honourable friend is right to raise this issue on the half of his
0:04:22 > 0:04:27constituents. A local authority may only alter green belt boundary in
0:04:27 > 0:04:30exceptional circumstances. In our highs to Leave Housing White Paper
0:04:30 > 0:04:36this was clear that it is when they have fully examined other options
0:04:36 > 0:04:40for meeting development needs and that includes looking at Brownfield
0:04:40 > 0:04:43sites and building on Brownfield sites. In the case of Guildford, I
0:04:43 > 0:04:47understand the local plan has been submitted for examination earlier
0:04:47 > 0:04:51this month and it will be examined by an independent inspector in due
0:04:51 > 0:04:54course, but I can assure my right honourable friend that he is
0:04:54 > 0:05:00absolutely right, that we want to ensure that green belt is detected.
0:05:00 > 0:05:06Jeremy Corbyn.Thank you Mr Speaker. Could I take this opportunity to
0:05:06 > 0:05:10wish you, Ormond is of the House, all our public servants and all of
0:05:10 > 0:05:15our Armed Forces are very happy Christmas and all the Best wishes
0:05:15 > 0:05:20for 2018. And could I paid tribute to our very hard-working National
0:05:20 > 0:05:26Health Service staff, many of whom, unlike us will not get a break this
0:05:26 > 0:05:30Christmas. Is the prime minister satisfied that the National Health
0:05:30 > 0:05:38Service has the resources it needs this winter?First of all, can I
0:05:38 > 0:05:40join the right honourable gentleman. He refers to those NHS staff who
0:05:40 > 0:05:46will be working very hard this Christmas and will not get a break.
0:05:46 > 0:05:51It is not only our NHS staff who will be working hard this Christmas.
0:05:51 > 0:05:56It is also our emergency services and many others who go to work on
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Christmas Day so others can enjoy their Christmas Day, and we thank
0:05:59 > 0:06:04all of them. He asks about preparations for winter. I can say
0:06:04 > 0:06:08to him, the health service has prepared more extensively for this
0:06:08 > 0:06:13winter than ever before. These plans are helping to ensure safe, timely
0:06:13 > 0:06:17care for patients. As it happens, those are not my words, they are the
0:06:17 > 0:06:25words of the chief Executive of NHS providers.Well, Sir Simon Stevens
0:06:25 > 0:06:30did say the NHS needs £4 billion next year just to stand still, and
0:06:30 > 0:06:36the reality of the Government has given the NHS less than half of what
0:06:36 > 0:06:41he asked for. Mr Speaker, the Prime Minister talks about the money the
0:06:41 > 0:06:49NHS needs, but 50,000 people were left waiting on trolleys in hospital
0:06:49 > 0:06:54corridors last month. Last week, more ambulances were diverted to
0:06:54 > 0:06:58other hospitals because of A&E pressures. 12,000 patients were kept
0:06:58 > 0:07:04waiting in the back of an ambulance because there was no room at the
0:07:04 > 0:07:09A&E. I asked the Prime Minister a game, has the NHS got the resources
0:07:09 > 0:07:16it needs this winter to deal with this crisis?
0:07:16 > 0:07:25He knows full well that NHS funding is at record levels. And in the
0:07:25 > 0:07:30autumn budget, we put some extra funding in to the NHS this winter,
0:07:30 > 0:07:36in addition to the £6.3 billion extra which is given to the NHS over
0:07:36 > 0:07:41the coming years. Time after time again, the right honourable
0:07:41 > 0:07:44gentleman will come to this House and complain about what is happening
0:07:44 > 0:07:54in the health service. Can I just say to him? Can I just tell the
0:07:54 > 0:08:03House what is happening in the health service. We see 7 million
0:08:03 > 0:08:07more diagnostic tests than seven years ago. 2.2 million people
0:08:07 > 0:08:13getting operations, and survival rates for cancer at their highest
0:08:13 > 0:08:20ever level. Those are figures, but what does it mean? What it means is
0:08:20 > 0:08:24more people getting the treatment they need. It means more elderly
0:08:24 > 0:08:30people getting their hip operations, and it means that today, there I
0:08:30 > 0:08:34nearly 6500 people alive who would not have been if we had not improved
0:08:34 > 0:08:43our cancer care. In the first three weeks of this
0:08:43 > 0:08:46winter, 30,000 patients were left waiting in the back of an ambulance
0:08:46 > 0:08:54for more than half an hour. These delays risk lives. If the NHS had
0:08:54 > 0:09:02the resources it needs, you would expect it to be meeting its key
0:09:02 > 0:09:06waiting time targets. Can the prime Minister give us a cast-iron pledge
0:09:06 > 0:09:15that all of those targets will be met in 2018?What we are looking to
0:09:15 > 0:09:20do in 2018 is yes, improve the standard of care that we provide in
0:09:20 > 0:09:23our health service and ensure we can improve on those figures that I have
0:09:23 > 0:09:28just given him, that we did see more people being treated in our health
0:09:28 > 0:09:32service, that we do see better survival rates. That is why we have
0:09:32 > 0:09:36been putting the extra money into the National Health Service. But it
0:09:36 > 0:09:39is not just about putting extra money into the National Health
0:09:39 > 0:09:45Service. It is about ensuring that we see the proper integration of
0:09:45 > 0:09:51health and social care at grassroots level, that is what the SDPs are
0:09:51 > 0:09:56about in many areas, opposed by the Labour Party. It is why we have
0:09:56 > 0:10:04lifted the cap so we see more nurse training places opposed by the
0:10:04 > 0:10:08Labour Party. This is about ensuring we have the staff and capability in
0:10:08 > 0:10:14the NHS to deliver a first-class world-class service that our NHS is.
0:10:14 > 0:10:20We should be proud of our NHS. We are and we are going to make it even
0:10:20 > 0:10:25better.A&E waiting time targets have not been met for 2.5 years.
0:10:25 > 0:10:30Cancer treatment targets have not been met for two years. Our A&E
0:10:30 > 0:10:39departments are bursting at the seams, because people cannot get a
0:10:39 > 0:10:43GP appointment when they need one. The Government promised to recruit
0:10:43 > 0:10:52an extra 5000 GPs by 2020. Where are they?We are seeing more GPs, we are
0:10:52 > 0:10:56seeing more training places for our GPs, that he wants to talk that
0:10:56 > 0:11:02targets, if he wants to talk about targets, let's look at what has
0:11:02 > 0:11:13happened in Wales will stop. The standard on A&E in Wales was last
0:11:13 > 0:11:21met in 2008. Let me just think. Which party is in government in
0:11:21 > 0:11:27Wales? Is it the Conservatives? No. It is the Labour Party in government
0:11:27 > 0:11:32in Wales. On cancer care, the standard was last met in June 2008
0:11:32 > 0:11:36in Wales. He should look at what the Labour Party are actually delivering
0:11:36 > 0:11:43before he comes to this House and complains.The Welsh Government
0:11:43 > 0:11:50relies on a Brock grant from England which has been cut by 5% by 2020 --
0:11:50 > 0:11:56a block grant. Despite that, in Wales, 85.5% of cancer patients
0:11:56 > 0:12:00start their treatment within 62 days, higher than is achieved in
0:12:00 > 0:12:05England. Mr Speaker, my question was about GPs. Perhaps the prime
0:12:05 > 0:12:10minister is not aware that there are 1000 less GPs than there were the
0:12:10 > 0:12:17days she became Prime Minister. It is not only the lack of GPs. Another
0:12:17 > 0:12:22issue that is driving people into A&Es are the 6 billion cuts made to
0:12:22 > 0:12:29social care budgets. 2.3 million older people have unmet care needs.
0:12:29 > 0:12:34Does the Prime Minister regret, and the Chancellor is sitting absolutely
0:12:34 > 0:12:43next to her, that he did not put 1p in his budget for social care?We
0:12:43 > 0:12:47have £2 billion extra money into social care. We did that in the
0:12:47 > 0:12:53spring budget. But he started his question by referencing the record
0:12:53 > 0:13:01of the last Labour government on health. Well, you know, the last
0:13:01 > 0:13:06Labour government's record on health, their NHS legacy was
0:13:06 > 0:13:10described as a mess. We are clearing that up. We are putting more money
0:13:10 > 0:13:19into the NHS. But who was it that described, who was it who described
0:13:19 > 0:13:33Labour's NHS legacy as a mess? It was the right honourable gentleman.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38When he is running for leader, he denounces the Labour Party, now he
0:13:38 > 0:13:46is leader of the Labour Party, he is trying praise it.
0:13:46 > 0:13:54Mr Speaker, an idea of some, Mr Speaker, I could quote the prime
0:13:54 > 0:13:57Minister something she may be familiar with. If the Government
0:13:57 > 0:14:01wants to reduce the pressure is on the health service and keep people
0:14:01 > 0:14:04out of hospital in the first place, then he needs to tackle other
0:14:04 > 0:14:08chronic underfunding of care and support service in the community,
0:14:08 > 0:14:14which are tipping point. Who said that? The Conservative leader of
0:14:14 > 0:14:20Warwickshire County Council. Mr Speaker, the question was on social
0:14:20 > 0:14:27care. But the issue is about the NHS as a whole. It is there, Mr Speaker,
0:14:27 > 0:14:33to provide care and dignity to all if they fall ill, but our NHS goes
0:14:33 > 0:14:39into this winter in crisis. Nurses and other workers, no pay rise for
0:14:39 > 0:14:45years. NHS targets not met four years. Staff shortages, GP numbers
0:14:45 > 0:14:49falling. The reality is, mental health budgets have been cut, social
0:14:49 > 0:14:55care budgets have been cut, public health budgets cut. The Prime
0:14:55 > 0:15:01Minister today has shown just how out of touch she is. The truth is,
0:15:01 > 0:15:09Mr Speaker, our NHS is being recklessly, recklessly that at risk
0:15:09 > 0:15:17by her government. That is the truth, Mr Speaker.
0:15:17 > 0:15:20The right honourable gentleman is wrong because NHS funding has gone
0:15:20 > 0:15:26up. He is wrong because social care funding has gone up. But, you know,
0:15:26 > 0:15:29not that long ago, the right honourable gentleman was saying that
0:15:29 > 0:15:43he would be Prime Minister by Christmas... Well... He was wrong. I
0:15:43 > 0:15:44am, and the Conservatives are in government!
0:15:44 > 0:15:53CHEERING Not that long ago, you said we would
0:15:53 > 0:15:57not deliver on phase one on the Brexit negotiations but he was
0:15:57 > 0:16:02wrong, we have made sufficient progress and we are moving on to
0:16:02 > 0:16:06phase two of Brexit negotiations. Not that long ago he predicted that
0:16:06 > 0:16:12the budget would be a failure, in fact the budget was a success and is
0:16:12 > 0:16:18delivering more money for our National Health Service. Labour -
0:16:18 > 0:16:26wrong, wrong, wrong. Conservatives, delivering and Brexit, a budget for
0:16:26 > 0:16:29homes and the health service, delivering a Briton fit for the
0:16:29 > 0:16:42future.Mr Speaker... Mr Speaker, thank you very much. Gloucestershire
0:16:42 > 0:16:47College is building a brand-new campus in my constituency made
0:16:47 > 0:16:51possible by millions of pounds of government support, can I thank the
0:16:51 > 0:16:55Prime Minister for that investment? Doesn't it show that this is a
0:16:55 > 0:16:59government committed to investing in skills necessary to make this an
0:16:59 > 0:17:04economic and country fit for the future? Hull Prime Minister!May I
0:17:04 > 0:17:08say to my right honourable friend that I'm very pleased that that has
0:17:08 > 0:17:12taken place in his constituency and I'm also pleased to agree with him,
0:17:12 > 0:17:16I know he believes very strongly in this, the importance of skills and
0:17:16 > 0:17:19training for the future. That is a good commitment of this government.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23It's more important than ever that people in this country are
0:17:23 > 0:17:27developing the skills they need to get the highly paid jobs of the
0:17:27 > 0:17:34future. As we are doing -- that's what we are doing for the future,
0:17:34 > 0:17:38and the Conservatives play an important part of that.Ian
0:17:38 > 0:17:42Blackford. Thank you, Mr Speaker. May I take this opportunity to wish
0:17:42 > 0:17:48yourself, our members of staff, emergency personnel and Merry
0:17:48 > 0:17:53Christmas and a happy New Year when it comes. Can we wish for a peaceful
0:17:53 > 0:17:58election tomorrow in Catalonia? Mr Speaker, in 2013, the then
0:17:58 > 0:18:02Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne, when reflecting on his
0:18:02 > 0:18:05position and representing the majority interest in the Royal Bank
0:18:05 > 0:18:09of Scotland, on the departure of the then chief executive of the Royal
0:18:09 > 0:18:13Bank of Scotland, said of course, my consent and approval was sought. Was
0:18:13 > 0:18:17the government right to intervene in the departure of the chief executive
0:18:17 > 0:18:23of the Royal Bank of Scotland?Prime Minister...I say to the right
0:18:23 > 0:18:27honourable gentleman, that obviously decisions were taken in the past
0:18:27 > 0:18:31relating to RBS, the key decision was taken at the time of the
0:18:31 > 0:18:35financial crisis, in relation to support the government provided to
0:18:35 > 0:18:38the Royal Bank of Scotland. If he's going to raise branch closures like
0:18:38 > 0:18:41you did last week, I'm afraid he will get the same answer as last
0:18:41 > 0:18:47week. The government does ensure that, through the protocol that is
0:18:47 > 0:18:51in place, through the work done with the Post Office to provide extra
0:18:51 > 0:18:56services, that services are available to people.Mr Speaker, it
0:18:56 > 0:18:59is supposed to be Prime Minister's Questions, the Prime Minister is
0:18:59 > 0:19:04supposed to at least try and answer the question. If it was right in
0:19:04 > 0:19:082013 for the Chancellor of the Exchequer to intervene on the
0:19:08 > 0:19:12departure of the Chief Executive Officer, then of course it is quite
0:19:12 > 0:19:16right that the government takes its responsibilities when the last 13
0:19:16 > 0:19:20branches in town are going to be closed in Scotland? Prime Minister,
0:19:20 > 0:19:30show some leadership! Stand up for our communities, bring Ross commune
0:19:30 > 0:19:35in and say that you are going to stand up for national interests and
0:19:35 > 0:19:40stop these bank closures.The decision on individual bank branches
0:19:40 > 0:19:44is operational decisions by the banks themselves. He talks about
0:19:44 > 0:19:49standing up for communities, and standing up for people across
0:19:49 > 0:19:53Scotland but I had to say to him, that's a bit rich coming from an SNP
0:19:53 > 0:19:57and government in Scotland, that's going to increase taxes for 1.2
0:19:57 > 0:20:07million Scots. The Conservative government is reducing tax for 2.4
0:20:07 > 0:20:12million Scots. There is one clear message to people in Scotland, the
0:20:12 > 0:20:18Conservatives back you but the SNP tax you!Order, I wish the
0:20:18 > 0:20:22honourable member for Filton and Bradley Stoke and his honourable
0:20:22 > 0:20:27friend the member for Morley and Outwood all the best for their
0:20:27 > 0:20:41wedding on Friday of this week... I look forward to attending that.
0:20:43 > 0:20:49Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. I look forward to seeing you there!
0:20:49 > 0:20:53I'm sure the Prime Minister agrees with me that defence of the RAM and
0:20:53 > 0:20:55protection of our people is the first duty of government but would
0:20:55 > 0:20:58you further agree that any future government which fails to support
0:20:58 > 0:21:05our Armed Forces, which wants to abolish nuclear deterrence, that
0:21:05 > 0:21:08would endanger security as well as placing hundreds of thousands of
0:21:08 > 0:21:12jobs at risk across the country as well as 12,000 in my own
0:21:12 > 0:21:19constituency?Mr Speaker, may I join you in congratulating my honourable
0:21:19 > 0:21:23friend and my honourable friend, the member for Morley and Outwood on
0:21:23 > 0:21:25their forthcoming wedding, unfortunately due to my travels I
0:21:25 > 0:21:31will not be able to attend. I wish them the best. He has raised a very
0:21:31 > 0:21:37important issue, and I absolutely agree that defence is the first
0:21:37 > 0:21:41responsibility of the first duty of government and that is why we are
0:21:41 > 0:21:44committed to our Nato pledge to spend at least 2% of GDP on defence
0:21:44 > 0:21:52every year. We had a £36 billion defence budget which will rise to
0:21:52 > 0:21:57almost £40 million by 2021 and we are spending £178 billion over the
0:21:57 > 0:22:01next ten years on equipment. He is absolutely right, a party like the
0:22:01 > 0:22:05one opposite which wants to get rid of our nuclear deterrence, cut the
0:22:05 > 0:22:11Armed Forces and get out of Nato, that would not strengthen us but we
0:22:11 > 0:22:14can us.The Prime Minister would be aware of the strong affection and
0:22:14 > 0:22:19support for Gibraltar across this house. In light of the guidelines
0:22:19 > 0:22:23published this morning, will she give a commitment not to enter into
0:22:23 > 0:22:30agreement with the EU, that excludes Gibraltar from the transitional or
0:22:30 > 0:22:34implementation no arrangements and periods?Can I say to the honourable
0:22:34 > 0:22:39gentleman that we, in the EU, have been clear that Gibraltar is covered
0:22:39 > 0:22:42by the withdrawal agreement and our Article 50 exit negotiations and to
0:22:42 > 0:22:47confirm what I said on Monday, our negotiations, as we negotiate, are
0:22:47 > 0:22:50being negotiated to ensure relationships are there for
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Gibraltar as well. We will not exclude Gibraltar from negotiations
0:22:53 > 0:22:58for the fermentation period or the future agreement. I can give the
0:22:58 > 0:23:07honourable gentleman that assurance. Thank you, Mr Speaker. As the Prime
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Minister would be aware, Derry is important for growing children as
0:23:11 > 0:23:15part of their healthy diet. The sector is integral to great British
0:23:15 > 0:23:20food and drink -- dairy. Will she support our campaign next year to
0:23:20 > 0:23:24rebrand milk, to ask supermarkets to include it as part of their meal
0:23:24 > 0:23:28deals elections and as part of a healthy diet promotes drinking milk
0:23:28 > 0:23:34in schools? Will she join me this Christmas in raising a glass to our
0:23:34 > 0:23:37fabulous dairy farmers?I'm very happy to join my honourable friend
0:23:37 > 0:23:42in commending the work our dairy farmers do. He talks about the
0:23:42 > 0:23:45importance of dairy. He is a great advocate of oral issues and he is
0:23:45 > 0:23:49right, it is one of the most efficient, innovative and high
0:23:49 > 0:23:54quality dairy industries in the EU. On the point that he has raised, can
0:23:54 > 0:23:59I suggest, the Environment Secretary would be happy to discuss those
0:23:59 > 0:24:03particular points but I do join him in recognising the importance of the
0:24:03 > 0:24:09dairy industry.Ronnie Coward.Thank you very much. I minister, in eight
0:24:09 > 0:24:16European countries and Canada they have drug consumption rooms which
0:24:16 > 0:24:21reduce the spread of HIV, hepatitis C and reduce crime. It's worth
0:24:21 > 0:24:25noting that drug-related deaths in the last 40 years continued increase
0:24:25 > 0:24:29in the UK but there has never been a drug overdose in a supervised drug
0:24:29 > 0:24:34consumption room. In the interest of public health, will be Prime
0:24:34 > 0:24:39Minister introduced these rooms in UK or devolve relevant powers to the
0:24:39 > 0:24:45Scottish parliament so that the Scottish Government can do so.I'm
0:24:45 > 0:24:49sure you are aware that the Home Office recently updated the
0:24:49 > 0:24:52government drug strategy but I had to say that I have a different
0:24:52 > 0:24:56opinion to some members of this house. Some members of the house are
0:24:56 > 0:24:59very liberal in their approach to the way that drugs should be
0:24:59 > 0:25:02treated. I'm very clear that we should recognise the damage that
0:25:02 > 0:25:08drugs do to people's lives. Our aim should be to ensure that people come
0:25:08 > 0:25:13off drugs and do not go on drugs in the first place. Then people keep
0:25:13 > 0:25:21clear of them. That is what we should be focusing on.Thank you, Mr
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Speaker. Can I pay tribute to the Prime Minister for listening so
0:25:24 > 0:25:29carefully to myself around issues for women's health, particularly
0:25:29 > 0:25:37surrounding pregnancy, around mesh implants, or all issues raised by my
0:25:37 > 0:25:39constituents. Like my right honourable friend they feel very
0:25:39 > 0:25:43strongly about tackling female health issues and are very grateful
0:25:43 > 0:25:48to be heard. Can the Prime Minister assure me that she will continue to
0:25:48 > 0:25:52listen so that women do not feel that they are left behind or
0:25:52 > 0:25:58forgotten when it comes to help equality in this country?I was very
0:25:58 > 0:26:01happy to meet my honourable friend to discuss these issues, and indeed
0:26:01 > 0:26:08to meet others to talk about this. These are important issues, they are
0:26:08 > 0:26:14issues that have had a real impact on women's lives. They are issues
0:26:14 > 0:26:18where women want answers as to what has happened in relation to this and
0:26:18 > 0:26:21I can assure my honourable friend that the government and I will
0:26:21 > 0:26:25continue to listen on these issues and we will continue to look to see
0:26:25 > 0:26:29what we can do to ensure that we do not see women suffering in the way
0:26:29 > 0:26:34that we have in the past on issues like this and we will keep that
0:26:34 > 0:26:39clear focus on women's health.Life effort. Poo-mac Mr Speaker...
0:26:47 > 0:26:51Mr Speaker, happy Christmas. Last year the Prime Minister told the
0:26:51 > 0:26:55radio Times that on Christmas Day she likes to prepare and cook her
0:26:55 > 0:27:02own goose... You know what is coming! In the spirit of Christmas
0:27:02 > 0:27:05can I suggest that in order to extract the maximum pleasure from
0:27:05 > 0:27:12the messy job of stuffing her cues that she names it either Michael or
0:27:12 > 0:27:17Boris? -- stuffing her goose. LAUGHTER
0:27:17 > 0:27:27CLAPPING
0:27:31 > 0:27:34Order, I'm sure that the Prime Minister has better taste than that!
0:27:34 > 0:27:39LAUGHTER Can I say to the honourable
0:27:39 > 0:27:45gentleman that I will be having to resist the temptation to call the
0:27:45 > 0:27:55goose Jeremy! Wing Mr Speaker, on Thursday last night, there was an
0:27:55 > 0:27:59important local referendum in Christchurch.The result was, 84% of
0:27:59 > 0:28:05the people of Christchurch want to keep Christchurch as an independent
0:28:05 > 0:28:12sovereign borough and are against the abolition of Christchurch.
0:28:12 > 0:28:19Order! Order! I cannot understand this atmosphere, I want to hear
0:28:19 > 0:28:24about the views of the good burghers of Christchurch!Will my right
0:28:24 > 0:28:29honourable friend ensure that the government respects the views of the
0:28:29 > 0:28:33people of Christchurch and will she also ensure that the government
0:28:33 > 0:28:41gives sufficient time, indeed extra time, for the Council to draw up
0:28:41 > 0:28:44alternative proposals which properly reflect the wishes of the people of
0:28:44 > 0:28:50Christchurch?I thank my honourable friend for his question. As I am
0:28:50 > 0:28:56aware, and as he knows being close to this, this issue has been
0:28:56 > 0:28:59considered by local councils over a significant period of time. This
0:28:59 > 0:29:03issue has been considered by the Department for Communities and Local
0:29:03 > 0:29:09Government. As was said from a sedentary position by my honourable
0:29:09 > 0:29:12friend, it is also the case that other councils in the area that do
0:29:12 > 0:29:19support a change to the government structure, of course DCLG will
0:29:19 > 0:29:22carefully look at the issues of these councils to ensure the best
0:29:22 > 0:29:28result is there for the people of Dorset.Laura Peacock.Thank you
0:29:28 > 0:29:33very much, Mr Speaker. We have some of the best schools in North West
0:29:33 > 0:29:40Durham...It may be moderately good-natured, but nevertheless it is
0:29:40 > 0:29:44disruptive. The honourable lady is entitled to be heard! For as long as
0:29:44 > 0:29:48she is in this house and I am in this chair, the honourable lady will
0:29:48 > 0:29:53be heard! That's the end of it. Thank you very much, Mr Speaker. We
0:29:53 > 0:29:58have some of the very best schools in North West Durham but whatever
0:29:58 > 0:30:01the new fund and formula they deal with deficits from years of
0:30:01 > 0:30:06real-time cuts, feeling the corrosive effect of a cad I is
0:30:06 > 0:30:12eight, school staff are working for longer and for less. Please, do not
0:30:12 > 0:30:17tell me there is more money in our schools. The fact is that a
0:30:17 > 0:30:20significant proportion of schools in North West Durham C a reduction in
0:30:20 > 0:30:29their funding. They have run out of ways to make cuts.What do they do
0:30:29 > 0:30:34next?The honourable lady asked me not to stand up and say there is
0:30:34 > 0:30:37more money going into our schools but of course, there is more money
0:30:37 > 0:30:41going into our schools. That's the reality. Funding for our schools
0:30:41 > 0:30:47will rise by over £1.4 billion next year and almost 1.2 billion a year
0:30:47 > 0:30:54after. We have protected the Pupil Premium to support those who need it
0:30:54 > 0:31:00most. And if you listen to the Labour Party, education only seems
0:31:00 > 0:31:05to be about the amount of money put in. What parents are looking for is
0:31:05 > 0:31:08the quality of education provided and I noticed that there is an
0:31:08 > 0:31:14increase of over 12,000 children in the County Down local authority now
0:31:14 > 0:31:18in good or outstanding schools because of this government.Suella
0:31:18 > 0:31:26Fernandes...Thank you, Mr Speaker. 2017 has been an excellent year for
0:31:26 > 0:31:30Fareham College, rated outstanding by Ofsted and short listed by the
0:31:30 > 0:31:33Times educational supplement as College of the year. Successful in
0:31:33 > 0:31:39its bid to deliver civil engineering provision. Will my right honourable
0:31:39 > 0:31:42friend join me in sending a happy Christmas to the principal and his
0:31:42 > 0:31:46staff, congratulating them on supporting our young people into
0:31:46 > 0:31:50work and because it is Christmas, creating a Briton fit for the
0:31:50 > 0:31:58future.Can I say to you, my right honourable friend, I'm very happy to
0:31:58 > 0:32:03send good wishes to the principal but also the staff and students at
0:32:03 > 0:32:07Ferrum College, and congratulate them that because of their hard
0:32:07 > 0:32:11work, they have achieved excellent results and she is absolutely right,
0:32:11 > 0:32:14it's about ensuring young people have the skills, education and
0:32:14 > 0:32:17training for jobs of the future building a Britain fit for the
0:32:17 > 0:32:28future. -- Fareham College.Fourth terminally ill -- the terminally ill
0:32:28 > 0:32:30people this Christmas, this Christmas could be their last
0:32:30 > 0:32:34Christmas. Does the Prime Minister agree that it can never be
0:32:34 > 0:32:38appropriate for terminally ill people to be forced to meet with
0:32:38 > 0:32:42work coaches or fit into an arbitrary six months prognosis in
0:32:42 > 0:32:49order to claim support? Will she finally listen to the experts at
0:32:49 > 0:33:00Macmillan and MND, that these people faced the end of their lives?The
0:33:00 > 0:33:03honourable gentleman is right, we need to ensure that we deal with
0:33:03 > 0:33:08these cases where somebody has a terminal illness with the utmost
0:33:08 > 0:33:13sensitivity, these are issues that have been raised before. The
0:33:13 > 0:33:17conditions apply to terminally ill people claiming Universal Credit are
0:33:17 > 0:33:21the same as those claiming employment and support allowance and
0:33:21 > 0:33:24have remained the same for successive governments. There are a
0:33:24 > 0:33:27number of approaches that can be taken and there were several options
0:33:27 > 0:33:31for how people progress in the system but he is right. We should
0:33:31 > 0:33:35deal with people who are terminally ill with sensitivity. That is what
0:33:35 > 0:33:45the system is and what the system intends to do. This morning I met
0:33:45 > 0:33:49the Alan, young student whose life was put on hold for two years and
0:33:49 > 0:33:53had to endure torture until his case collapsed this week, and another
0:33:53 > 0:33:59case collapsed because of a lack of disclosure.Does the Prime Minister
0:33:59 > 0:34:02agree that where there are these allegations, there should be full
0:34:02 > 0:34:08disclosure given to the CPS and both lawyers.My right honourable friend
0:34:08 > 0:34:13raises an important point, the issue of disclosure is one that has come
0:34:13 > 0:34:18to a focus of concern, as is the case that he has quoted and I
0:34:18 > 0:34:24understand another case in the press today. I can tell him that my right
0:34:24 > 0:34:28honourable friend, the Attorney General, had even before these cases
0:34:28 > 0:34:31came up initiated a review into disclosure. I do think it is
0:34:31 > 0:34:34important that we look at it again to ensure that we are truly
0:34:34 > 0:34:41providing justice.Thank you. According to her own commission,
0:34:41 > 0:34:45social mobility in Britain is stalling and for many it is getting
0:34:45 > 0:34:49worse, not better. Does she agree with her former chief of staff that
0:34:49 > 0:34:54last week's social mobility action plan was disappointing, full of
0:34:54 > 0:35:03jargon, short of meaningful policies and should have been published.The
0:35:03 > 0:35:18social mobility action plan, it's what the Sutton trust have said, so
0:35:18 > 0:35:21that disadvantaged young people get on in life, if she wants other
0:35:21 > 0:35:24quotes, the Association of colleges have said that this plan sets out an
0:35:24 > 0:35:29ambitious agenda to tackle deep seated in the qualities which the
0:35:29 > 0:35:33education system struggles to overcome. It's a good plan and will
0:35:33 > 0:35:43make a big difference to people's lives.Mr Speaker, in the 1980s...
0:35:43 > 0:35:49How very unfair on the honourable gentleman.I was saying, in the
0:35:49 > 0:35:531980s, Mrs Thatcher famously commented that if the alarm was so
0:35:53 > 0:35:58wonderful, why are millions of people in boats to leave it? When my
0:35:58 > 0:36:03right honourable friend goes into the second phase of negotiations, if
0:36:03 > 0:36:06WTO rules are so wonderful, why do so many countries seek trade
0:36:06 > 0:36:12agreements?-- Vietnam. Of course, countries around the world can trade
0:36:12 > 0:36:18but on what terms are they trading? We want to see a free trade
0:36:18 > 0:36:22agreements negotiated with the EU and we also want to see free trade
0:36:22 > 0:36:25agreements negotiated with countries around the rest of the world. The
0:36:25 > 0:36:29reason for that, as we are believers in free trade, the reason is we
0:36:29 > 0:36:36believe that brings growth, prosperity, jobs and a secure future
0:36:36 > 0:36:41for this country.Can I wish the Prime Minister in Merry Christmas.
0:36:41 > 0:36:46As she sits down to her Christmas dinner, will she spare a thought for
0:36:46 > 0:36:49the 1 million youngsters, the Children's Society calculates are
0:36:49 > 0:36:52set to lose their school dinners because of the government's
0:36:52 > 0:36:58Universal Credit plan? It's the season of goodwill, why doesn't she
0:36:58 > 0:37:04offered to fix this?Can I wish the honourable gentleman in Merry
0:37:04 > 0:37:11Christmas and a happy New Year. In fact, the introduction of the
0:37:11 > 0:37:14arrangements for free school meals under Universal Credit that is
0:37:14 > 0:37:17proposed by the government will lead to more children having access to
0:37:17 > 0:37:28free school meals.Geoffrey Clifton Brown!Given Michel Barnier's claim
0:37:28 > 0:37:34that the UK banks will lose their passporting writes her Spectre, as
0:37:34 > 0:37:37opposed to the Bank of England statement that EU banks will
0:37:37 > 0:37:41continue to operate here, does this not vindicate my right honourable
0:37:41 > 0:37:48friend's principled and strong stance in negotiating reciprocity
0:37:48 > 0:37:52for EU and UK citizens?I will say that we value the important role
0:37:52 > 0:37:56that the City of London plays, not just as a financial centre for
0:37:56 > 0:38:03Europe but also for the world. We want to retain that and maintain
0:38:03 > 0:38:06that. Michel Barnier has made a number of comments recently about
0:38:06 > 0:38:13the negotiation position on clear and the Bank of England and the
0:38:13 > 0:38:17Treasury has set out reassurance to ensure that the banks will be able
0:38:17 > 0:38:21to continue to operate and will continue to ensure that the City of
0:38:21 > 0:38:25London retains a global position but of course this will be part of
0:38:25 > 0:38:28negotiations on phase two of Brexit. We are clear on how important this
0:38:28 > 0:38:35is.Thank you, Mr Speaker. Mr and Mrs Walker from great word in my
0:38:35 > 0:38:41constituency have a son with learning difficulties. Mr Walker was
0:38:41 > 0:38:45knocked down by a driver over the summer who had taken drugs, was
0:38:45 > 0:38:55drunk, and was speeding. He is 69 and now a quadriplegic. He is not
0:38:55 > 0:38:59entitled to PIP, he cannot access mote ability and they are now paying
0:38:59 > 0:39:03£400 per calendar month for a hire car. I wrote to the DWP about this
0:39:03 > 0:39:07case on the 21st of November and haven't had a reply. Isn't it
0:39:07 > 0:39:10shocking that this country and government cannot look after the
0:39:10 > 0:39:13elderly and the disabled and I would ask the Prime Minister looks into
0:39:13 > 0:39:22this case urgently?Can I first of all give my best wishes to Mr Walker
0:39:22 > 0:39:28and his family, and how sorry we are to hear of what has befallen him. He
0:39:28 > 0:39:33references a letter made to the DWP, I will ensure that this case is
0:39:33 > 0:39:38investigated and that he receives a response.Will my right honourable
0:39:38 > 0:39:53friend join me in praising the work of Alice who supported. The separate
0:39:53 > 0:39:57from the supported housing sector, so that refugees can deliver
0:39:57 > 0:40:04specialist support?I thank my honourable friend for raising the
0:40:04 > 0:40:08question of refuges, but I am happy to join him in praising the work of
0:40:08 > 0:40:13four Tallis and services across the country. You mention the reforms put
0:40:13 > 0:40:17in place and that is because at the moment we feel the system is not
0:40:17 > 0:40:20responsive to the needs of vulnerable women in local areas --
0:40:20 > 0:40:24Fort Alice. So we want funding to go to the hands of local authorities
0:40:24 > 0:40:28but bring in new oversight to make sure we deliver the right support
0:40:28 > 0:40:31for the right people, ensuring we focused support on those who need it
0:40:31 > 0:40:39and that this is a system more
0:40:39 > 0:40:42The inappropriate treatment of smaller businesses by the Royal Bank
0:40:42 > 0:40:47Of Scotland destroyed businesses, ripped families apart and saw people
0:40:47 > 0:40:53take their own lives. RBS is owned by the Government. Will the Prime
0:40:53 > 0:40:57Minister set up the full independent enquiry which is needed to deliver
0:40:57 > 0:41:08justice for victims? My understanding is that this issue
0:41:08 > 0:41:14is properly being looked into. I recognise the Kearns did the smack
0:41:14 > 0:41:19-- I recognise the concerns being expressed and will look into this.
0:41:19 > 0:41:24Does the prime Minister share my dismay that the SNP government is
0:41:24 > 0:41:28planning on raising taxes on hard-working Scots, when it could
0:41:28 > 0:41:34raise the same amount, if not more, by just getting its own house in
0:41:34 > 0:41:44order, and improving efficiencies? Can I thank my honourable friend.
0:41:44 > 0:41:48What the Scottish government is proposing is there are 1.2 million
0:41:48 > 0:41:51Scots earning £26,000 will be paying more tax than people in England will
0:41:51 > 0:41:59be paying. But I was interested because I was not aware that the
0:41:59 > 0:42:04fact...Order. Apologies for interrupting the prime Minister. Can
0:42:04 > 0:42:07I just ask the prime Minister to face the House because some of us
0:42:07 > 0:42:11cannot hear fully and I would like to hear fully.
0:42:11 > 0:42:15Mr Speaker, I was making the point that my honourable friend has made
0:42:15 > 0:42:19an important point which is with the SNP got its own house in order it
0:42:19 > 0:42:23could save that amount of money by raising taxes and act surely not
0:42:23 > 0:42:30putting that extra tax burden on people earning over £26,000.
0:42:30 > 0:42:42In light of someone with a very loose and inaccurate language coming
0:42:42 > 0:42:45from politicians who should know better, would she take the
0:42:45 > 0:42:49opportunity to repeat to this House and the public in Northern Ireland,
0:42:49 > 0:42:52both sides of the community, the well established three strand
0:42:52 > 0:42:55approach to Northern Ireland, which makes it clear that the internal
0:42:55 > 0:42:59arrangements and decisions on Northern Ireland are matter of the
0:42:59 > 0:43:05United Kingdom government and the parties in Northern Ireland?
0:43:05 > 0:43:09I'm happy to make that clear to the right honourable gentleman and
0:43:09 > 0:43:13confirm what he says and we are very happy about the decisions that we
0:43:13 > 0:43:18have taken about Northern Ireland. What we do want to see is a Northern
0:43:18 > 0:43:21Ireland Executive restored so we can see those devolve decisions being
0:43:21 > 0:43:24taken by that Northern Ireland Executive. I know the right
0:43:24 > 0:43:28honourable gentleman also wants to see that Executive restored and we
0:43:28 > 0:43:37will continue to work with his party and with other parties.
0:43:37 > 0:43:44As one of the signatories to Amendment 400 to the EU Withdrawal
0:43:44 > 0:43:49Bill, may I seek an assurance from the Prime Minister that its
0:43:49 > 0:43:51provisions to change the date of our leaving
0:44:10 > 0:44:16March at 11pm. The bill that is going through does not determine
0:44:16 > 0:44:22that the UK leaves the EU, that's part of Article 50 process and a
0:44:22 > 0:44:25matter of international law and is important that we have the same
0:44:25 > 0:44:27position legally as the European Union and that's why we have
0:44:27 > 0:44:33accepted the amendment. I can assure my honourable friend and a house
0:44:33 > 0:44:37that we would only use this power in exceptional circumstances for the
0:44:37 > 0:44:40shortest possible time and an affirmative motion would be brought
0:44:40 > 0:44:51to the House.The government Department of Justice, NHS England,
0:44:51 > 0:44:54Lancashire care foundation trust should be thoroughly ashamed of
0:44:54 > 0:45:00their part in the national disgrace which is HMP Liverpool. Could the
0:45:00 > 0:45:05Prime Minister assure this house, this whole house, that those
0:45:05 > 0:45:09responsible for the deplorable conditions, the lack of care that
0:45:09 > 0:45:15led to suicides of some prisoners and has this harm has been caused to
0:45:15 > 0:45:20staff and prisoners. Those people will be held to account and proper
0:45:20 > 0:45:25disciplinary action taken and they not be allowed to move simply to
0:45:25 > 0:45:31other jobs. We need accountability for this tragedy.As I understand
0:45:31 > 0:45:35it, as my right honourable friend the Justice Secretary said
0:45:35 > 0:45:39yesterday, he expects this report on HMP Liverpool to be published early
0:45:39 > 0:45:42in the New Year. The number of actions have been taken as I
0:45:42 > 0:45:47understand it, including changes to prison management. Overall, we are
0:45:47 > 0:45:50increasing front line staff in our prisons by putting more money into
0:45:50 > 0:45:52that and increasing the support available to vulnerable offenders
0:45:52 > 0:45:58especially during the first 24 hours of custody and we have also invested
0:45:58 > 0:46:04more mental health awareness training for prison officers but of
0:46:04 > 0:46:06course, my right honourable friend the Justice Secretary will look
0:46:06 > 0:46:15carefully at this report when it's published. Coda I'm sorry if I was
0:46:15 > 0:46:18keeping the honourable gentleman awake.We had some other pressing
0:46:18 > 0:46:24business. I want to hear him.Merry Christmas to you, Mr Speaker, as
0:46:24 > 0:46:27well. The Prime Minister has just given an assurance that Amendment
0:46:27 > 0:46:34400 would indeed be only used in extremely in extreme circumstances
0:46:34 > 0:46:39and for a short time. Are we talking, if it's used, to be used at
0:46:39 > 0:46:42all, could she assure those it would only be used for a matter of weeks
0:46:42 > 0:46:48or months maximum and no longer because there is a concern that it
0:46:48 > 0:46:55could be indefinitely extend our stay within the EU.Can I thank my
0:46:55 > 0:46:58honourable friend for seeking further clarification on this
0:46:58 > 0:47:02particular point. Can I just start by saying, as I did to my honourable
0:47:02 > 0:47:06friend, the member for new Forest, that actually we're going to leave
0:47:06 > 0:47:12on the 29th of March 2019, that's what we are working to. But we do
0:47:12 > 0:47:15want to ensure that we have the same legal position as the European Union
0:47:15 > 0:47:21and that is why amendment 400, tabled by the member for West Dorset
0:47:21 > 0:47:29has been accepted. I can assure that if it was the case this would be
0:47:29 > 0:47:33used, it would only be an extremely exceptional circumstances and it
0:47:33 > 0:47:39would be for the shortest possible time. We are not talking about
0:47:39 > 0:47:49extensions...Order. We would hear better if members didn't keep
0:47:49 > 0:47:58wittering, said entry position. New Year 's resolution. An end to
0:47:58 > 0:48:04sedentary chuntering, wittering and hollering. The Prime Minister.I
0:48:04 > 0:48:09apologise for not facing the opposition. I was hoping to ensure
0:48:09 > 0:48:12my honourable friend actually heard the response I was giving and I can
0:48:12 > 0:48:17assure him that we are talking about the shortest possible time for this,
0:48:17 > 0:48:20should it be used, but I'm clear we're leaving the European Union on
0:48:20 > 0:48:30the 29th of March 20 19.Last Friday, Jo Cox's sister, Kim, the
0:48:30 > 0:48:35honourable member, published the Jo Cox manifesto. Werder Bremen is to
0:48:35 > 0:48:39join us in urging everybody over Christmas to look out for
0:48:39 > 0:48:42neighbours, family and friends who are struggling with the pain of
0:48:42 > 0:48:48loneliness and will government play its part by publishing a strategy
0:48:48 > 0:48:51for loneliness and responding fully early in the New Year to other
0:48:51 > 0:48:56recommendations?Can I say to the honourable lady, I know that she has
0:48:56 > 0:49:00worked extremely hard on this issue, together with my honourable friend,
0:49:00 > 0:49:04and this is an important issue and we are getting more and more
0:49:04 > 0:49:09awareness of the impact of loneliness on people and I think we
0:49:09 > 0:49:13already know is that social isolation is an issue. It is of
0:49:13 > 0:49:16importance to the government and we are looking at a number of things we
0:49:16 > 0:49:21can do to help reduce loneliness but it's not just what government can
0:49:21 > 0:49:25do, it's about what communities can do, what neighbours can do and I'm
0:49:25 > 0:49:29pleased to say that in my own constituency of Maidenhead, the
0:49:29 > 0:49:32churches together and Christmas Day bring elderly people who would
0:49:32 > 0:49:37otherwise be on their own together or a community lunch. Just one small
0:49:37 > 0:49:40example of what we can all do in our communities to help them overcome
0:49:40 > 0:49:46the problem of loneliness.Is very welcome that the Prime Minister is
0:49:46 > 0:49:51taking personal charge of building the homes of this country, such an
0:49:51 > 0:49:54important social justice issue for the future of our country. How does
0:49:54 > 0:49:57the Prime Minister see us doing this at this scale and that the speed
0:49:57 > 0:50:03which is necessary.My honourable friend is right that we do need to
0:50:03 > 0:50:08build more homes and we have to build them at a scale. When I am
0:50:08 > 0:50:13pleased to say that last year we saw 217,000 new homes built, this means
0:50:13 > 0:50:18that we have seen a record level of house building that apart from one
0:50:18 > 0:50:22year has not been seen over the last 30 years. We need to go further,
0:50:22 > 0:50:27that's why we propose a number of changes both in support for
0:50:27 > 0:50:29affordable housing, support for councils, support for people helping
0:50:29 > 0:50:34to get their foot on the housing ladder and working with local
0:50:34 > 0:50:38authorities in a number of ways to make sure lenders released and we do
0:50:38 > 0:50:40see builders building at the planning permission is that they
0:50:40 > 0:50:42have.
0:50:48 > 0:50:53He's not have any seasonal response. From the honourable gentleman from
0:50:53 > 0:50:57Sefton, said entry position. I expect better of the honourable
0:50:57 > 0:51:03gentleman. Tim Farren.Thank you very much. Your characteristic
0:51:03 > 0:51:06greeting and a Merry Christmas to everyone, especially the honourable
0:51:06 > 0:51:13member for Sefton. NHS England have extended the deadline for the
0:51:13 > 0:51:16consultation on the allocation of radiotherapy services into the New
0:51:16 > 0:51:22Year. Will she take this opportunity to ensure that one of the criteria.
0:51:22 > 0:51:29Ensure that travel distances they take travel times have massive
0:51:29 > 0:51:33impact on outcome. The people live in places like South Cumbria can
0:51:33 > 0:51:39access this safely and quickly.I say to the honourable gentleman, of
0:51:39 > 0:51:42course we are aware of the need to ensure not just the people are able
0:51:42 > 0:51:45to access the treatment that they need but they are unable to access
0:51:45 > 0:51:52that in a way that is appropriate and recognising in some rural areas
0:51:52 > 0:51:54that means further distances to travel than it would in other parts
0:51:54 > 0:51:58of the country. There is a consultation idea, NHS England will
0:51:58 > 0:52:03be looking very closely at these issues and I'm sure he will have
0:52:03 > 0:52:09made representations to them.Order. We will come to the honourable
0:52:09 > 0:52:12gentleman.
