BUSINESS TO BE TAKEN AT 7.00PM

The Prime Minister
That, at this day’s sitting, the motion in the name of Mr Jacob Rees-Mogg relating to Business of the House (Today) may be proceeded with, though opposed, until any hour and Standing Order No. 41A (Deferred divisions) will not apply.
BUSINESS OF THE DAY
Up to one hour (after commencement of proceedings on the Business of the House (Today) motion, if agreed to)
Mr Jacob Rees-Mogg
That, notwithstanding the practice of this House relating to questions already decided in the same Session, this House:
(1)rescinds the resolution and order of 3 November 2021 relating to the Third Report of the Committee on Standards (HC 797) and the appointment of a new select committee;
(2)approves the Third Report of the Committee on Standards (HC 797); and
(3)notes that Mr Owen Paterson is no longer a Member of this House.
4. FINANCE (NO. 2) BILL: SECOND READING
Until any hour (Standing Order No. 15(1)(a))
Alison Thewliss
Ian Blackford
Kirsten Oswald
Peter Grant
Richard Thomson
Owen Thompson
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Finance (No. 2) Bill because it fails to halt the National Insurance increase and it does not support the hospitality sector through the retention of the 12.5 per cent hospitality VAT rate, and because it derives from a Budget which failed to tackle the cost-of-living crisis, failed to reverse the £20 cut to universal credit, failed to reinstate the pensions triple lock, failed to deliver the multi-billion-pound compensation package needed to protect businesses and people from the impact of the UK’s withdrawal from the EU, ensured the continuation of austerity, did not deliver on the potential of Scotland’s transition to net zero carbon emissions as it failed to match the Scottish Government’s £500 million investment in Scotland’s northeast and failed to deliver the Acorn CCUS project, failed to deliver on the Government’s own plans to increase research and development investment, abandoned the world’s poorest by failing to return to the UK’s commitment to 0.7 per cent GDP ODA spending, and failed to deliver a real living wage for workers across the UK.
Keir Starmer
Rachel Reeves
Bridget Phillipson
James Murray
Abena Oppong-Asare
Sir Alan Campbell
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Finance (No. 2) Bill because it does nothing to help people who are struggling with the rising costs of living, who are being hit by the cut to universal credit, or who are facing a rise in National Insurance Contributions and a freeze in the Income Tax Personal Allowance from next April, because it nonetheless cuts taxes for banking companies and derives from a Budget that will see the tax burden rise to its highest level in 70 years and announced cuts in air passenger duty for UK domestic flights, and because it fails to set out a plan to grow the UK’s economy, fundamentally reform business rates, and create better jobs for the future.
Christine Jardine
Ed Davey
Daisy Cooper
Wendy Chamberlain
Mr Alistair Carmichael
Tim Farron
Layla MoranWera HobhouseJamie StoneSarah OlneyMunira WilsonSarah Green
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Finance (No. 2) Bill because it derives from a Budget that spent more money on a tax cut for banks than on catch-up funding for children’s education and failed to implement the £15 billion school catch-up plan needed to make up for lost learning due to the pandemic, that failed to deliver a £150 billion green recovery plan to reach net-zero emissions by 2045 whilst announcing a reduction in Air Passenger Duty on domestic flights, and that abandoned working families struggling with a cost-of-living crisis by ending the £20 uplift to universal credit, clawing back nearly half the minimum wage rise through the increase in National Insurance and offering no help with energy bills, and because it fails to deliver on the Government’s promise to reduce business rates via a fundamental review of the system, leaving companies with no long-term support as they cope with the impact of the pandemic and new international trade barriers.
Caroline Lucas
That this House declines to give a Second Reading to the Finance (No. 2) Bill because it derives from the Autumn 2021 Budget which failed to act on the climate and ecological emergency with the urgency or ambition needed to restore nature or meet UK obligations under the Paris Agreement or the Climate Change Act 2008, which failed to close the gap between pledges and plans and what is actually needed to keep global warming under 1.5 degrees, and instead allocated funds to activity that will result in increases in greenhouse gas emissions, which failed to put an end to fossil fuel subsidies or the proliferation of fossil fuels, the need for which has since been underscored by the Glasgow Climate Pact, which failed to scrap the requirement to maximise the economic recovery of petroleum, which failed to include a climate and nature test for all spending and fiscal measures, which failed to deliver transformational investment to create good green jobs across the country, and which failed to grasp the fundamental fact, as set out in the Treasury’s own Dasgupta Review, that the economy is embedded in the biosphere and that therefore, for the health and prosperity of citizens in the UK and around the world, including future generations, what is needed is an urgent economic reset and a truly fair and green recovery based on new economic goals that prioritise the health and wellbeing of people and nature, rather than the endless pursuit of GDP growth on a finite planet.
