Bill to make provision about fire safety in buildings containing multiple dwellings, including provision for the assessment and remediation of external walls that give rise to risks from fire, and the mitigation of such risks, in taller buildings; to make provision for the obtaining and recording of information about buildings containing residential accommodation; to make provision about liabilities in connection with unsafe construction products; and to make other provision in connection with the safety and management of residential buildings.

Josh Babarinde

Bill to require the Secretary of State to report to Parliament on the potential merits of disregarding compensation received under the War Pension Scheme and Armed Forces Compensation Scheme for the purpose of calculating entitlement to Pension Credit and to other means-tested benefits for which such payments are not disregarded in full; and for connected purposes.

Business of the Day

1. Ten Minute Rule Motion: Wet wipes (labelling, sale and marketing)

Up to 20 minutes (Standing Order No. 23)

Notes:

The Member moving and a Member opposing this Motion may each speak for up to 10 minutes.


2. Opposition Day (3rd Allotted Day)

Until 7.00pm (Standing Order No. 9(3))

MoD Bicester and illegal migrants

Mrs Kemi Badenoch

Chris Philp

Joy Morrissey

Rebecca Harris

That this House condemns the Government’s plan to place illegal migrants in MoD Bicester; and calls on the Government to withdraw from the European Convention on Human Rights in order to deport illegal migrants.

Amendment (a)

Max Wilkinson

Ed Davey

Wendy Chamberlain

Calum Miller

Leave out from “Government’s” to end and insert “plans to house asylum seekers at MoD Bicester, an unsuitable, derelict site that has never previously had residential accommodation; believes that large military sites are wrong for local communities, taxpayers and asylum seekers alike; wants to establish an asylum system that is fair, firm and fast and commands public confidence; further condemns the previous Government for creating the asylum backlog and expanding the use of asylum hotels; opposes in the strongest terms calls to leave the European Convention on Human Rights, which would not restore order to the asylum system and instead weaken vital protections for British citizens, including freedom of speech, the right to a fair trial and powers to hold the state to account; is proud of the UK’s tradition of offering sanctuary to those fleeing persecution, torture and war, and recognises that international cooperation is essential to fixing the asylum system; and calls on the Government to use scarce resources, not to build new large sites, but to end the use of asylum hotels and large sites within six months by speeding up decisions and promptly removing those with no right to remain, and to stop dangerous small boat crossings by joining the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum.”

Inheritance Tax

Mrs Kemi Badenoch

Andrew Griffith

Victoria Atkins

Rebecca Harris

That this House calls on the Government to cut public spending in order to abolish Inheritance Tax on family homes, farms and businesses.

Amendment (a)

Daisy Cooper

Ed Davey

Wendy Chamberlain

Leave out from “House” to end and insert “notes that at the end of the last Parliament, the previous Government had raised taxes to their highest level in modern times, including by freezing Income Tax thresholds making the cost of living crisis worse; recognises that wanting to leave something to one’s children is a natural and valuable part of being a parent; further notes that Inheritance Tax is unfair, with ordinary families facing a high tax rate of 40% while those inheriting estates worth tens of millions are able to avoid it using complex accountancy methods; further recognises that the vast majority of people can already leave their family home free of Inheritance Tax; and believes that the tax system should be made fairer for all, including by reforming Inheritance Tax, and raising the Income Tax Personal Allowance to £15,000 and the Higher Rate Threshold to £56,000 over five years, which is the most effective way to help millions of people squeezed by the cost of living crisis, taking 2.5 million people out of Income Tax and cutting tax for more than 30 million workers.”
