Mrs Kemi Badenoch
Andrew Griffith
Rebecca Harris
Dame Harriett Baldwin
Greg Smith
Mr Gagan Mohindra
Joy Morrissey
That this House regrets the Government’s decision to introduce a cap on Business Property Relief, meaning that some family businesses passed down upon death will face Inheritance Tax for the first time in 50 years; further regrets the Government’s other economic policies that will damage family businesses, namely raising employers’ National Insurance contributions, reductions to business rates relief, making employers potentially liable for third-party harassment, the powers in the Product Regulation and Metrology Bill [Lords] that would allow the Government to ban pubs from selling pints, and the provisions in the Employment Rights Bill for guaranteed hours which will make flexible working harder to achieve; and therefore calls on the Government to support family businesses which provide employment for almost 14 million people, and contribute more than £200 billion in taxes each year, by lifting the cap on Business Property Relief, not implementing the increases to employers’ National Insurance contributions and business rates, and powers to change units of measurement, and to stop the progress of the damaging Employment Rights Bill.
Amendment (a)
Daisy Cooper
Leave out from “House” to end and add “recognises that family businesses are the heart of local communities, create the jobs upon which communities rely and are an integral part of the national economy; regrets the Government’s changes to Business Property Relief which unfairly penalise treasured family-owned businesses in communities across the UK; and notes that these changes are particularly damaging as they come after years of economic uncertainty and mismanagement under the previous Government, which oversaw workforce shortages, soaring energy costs and rising interest rates while breaking its promise to fix the broken business rates system and erecting countless trade barriers, and comes alongside this Government’s damaging increase to employers’ National Insurance contributions which will damage jobs and economic growth.”
British Indian Ocean Territory
Mrs Kemi Badenoch
Priti Patel
Rebecca Harris
Mr Mark Francois
Mr Gagan Mohindra
Joy Morrissey
That this House regrets the reported multi-billion pound cost of the UK-Mauritius deal; notes the risk the deal presents to the UK’s strategic interests; further notes that it was a policy choice, not a legal necessity, and the concerns held by Chagossians over the Government’s failure to engage comprehensively with them; and calls on the Government to—
(1) lay before this House a chronology of the negotiations between the UK Government and the Government of Mauritius, since 4 July 2024;
(2) confirm whether the account of Prime Minister Ramgoolam given to the Mauritius National Assembly on 4 February 2025 is correct that (a) there has been a change in the sovereignty arrangements over Diego Garcia from those previously agreed, (b) changes have been made to the terms of the lease on Diego Garcia, and (c) changes have been made to the costs of the deal since it was first agreed and announced in the UK-Mauritius joint statement on 3 October 2024;
(3) confirm from which departmental budgets the costs of this deal will come and what they will be, including whether any of the proposed increase in defence spending, as announced by the Prime Minister on 25 February, will be used to pay for this;
(4) explain what involvement the Attorney General has had with this deal;
(5) set out the negotiating objectives established by the Prime Minister’s Special Envoy for BIOT negotiations and the reasons the Government sought to accelerate negotiations and conclude them before the Mauritian elections.
Amendment (a)
Calum Miller
James MacCleary
Helen Maguire
Monica Harding
Dr Al Pinkerton
Leave out from “House” to end and add “recognises the importance of the UK being a staunch supporter of international law and believes that it is in the UK’s interest to negotiate with Mauritius following the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice regarding the British Indian Ocean Territory; notes the previous Government’s commitment to securing an agreement in accordance with international law; expresses deep concern over the Government’s handling of the negotiations; regrets the exclusion of Chagossians from the process; believes that Chagossians should have had a meaningful role in shaping the future of their homeland; calls on the Government to publish the cost of the agreement; further calls on the Government to ensure that Parliament has a say before any final deal is signed, particularly in relation to UK security interests; and urges the Government to guarantee that Chagossians are fully involved in all future negotiations concerning the British Indian Ocean Territory.”
Notes:
The selection of the matters to be debated has been made by the Leader of the Opposition (Standing Order No. 14(2)).
