BUSINESS OF THE DAY

1. EUROPEAN UNION (WITHDRAWAL AGREEMENT) BILL: SECOND READING

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

Liz Saville RobertsJonathan EdwardsHywel WilliamsBen LakeThat this House declines to give the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill a Second Reading because it fails to provide the Senedd with the opportunity to consent to future Free Trade Agreements, which will impact on devolved competencies, because it does not offer the people of the United Kingdom the opportunity to have their say on the deal in a second referendum and it fails to provide access to the Customs Union and Single Market, which will likely lead to increasing tariffs negatively impacting on Welsh

https://publications.parliament.uk/pa/bills/cbill/2019-2020/0007/20007.pdf

https://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201719/cmstords/1020/body.html#9(3)


businesses, jobs and the economy more widely, because the Government’s failure to publish the relevant impact assessments means that Members of Parliament are not being given the full information on the deal’s impact and because the United Kingdom must not leave the EU before gaining the legislative consent of the Senedd.

33. QUEEN’S SPEECH (MOTION FOR AN ADDRESS): ADJOURNED DEBATE [17 OCTOBER]

That an humble Address be presented to Her Majesty, as follows:

Most Gracious Sovereign,

We, Your Majesty’s most dutiful and loyal subjects, the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled, beg leave to offer our humble thanks to Your Majesty for the Gracious Speech which Your Majesty has addressed to both Houses of Parliament.

Amendment (a)Caroline LucasAt end add ‘but believe that the measures in the Gracious Speech fail to deliver the urgent transformative action required by the environment and climate emergency; call on your Government to enact a Green New Deal to restructure and decarbonise the economy and restore nature, including alternative measures of economic success to GDP, public investment of 5 per cent of GDP on well-paid jobs and new industries country-wide, energy efficiency programmes that end fuel poverty, community owned renewables, publicly-owned and affordable public transport, cycling and walking, climate-friendly food and farming and mass building of zero-carbon council homes; urge your Government to establish a Committee on Sustainability to advise on restoring and protecting ecosystems; further urge your Government to prioritise climate justice, the reversal of social and economic inequality and the revitalisation of democracy, with legislation to end public spending on fossil fuel projects overseas, contribute a fair share to international climate finance for mitigation and adaptation alongside loss and damage, and to deliver a real living wage, a maximum pay ratio of 10:1, a universal basic income, proportional voting, votes at 16, citizens assemblies, an end to privatising public services like the NHS and a reversal of cuts inflicted on local government since 2010.’

Amendment (b)Hugh GaffneyMr Paul SweeneyGrahame MorrisMike HillKate HollernRuth George

Ruth Jones Tonia Antoniazzi

At end add ‘but respectfully regret that there were no proposals to save free TV licences for all those aged 75 and over contained in the Gracious Speech; notes that there are 3.7 million pensioners across the UK who face losing their free TV licence; recognises that the loss of free TV licences will increase both poverty and loneliness among pensioners; believes that the decision to end free TV licences is as a result of the funding deal done between the Government and BBC in July 2015; and calls on the Government to reassume financial responsibility for free TV licences for all those aged 75 and over before the changes to eligibility come into effect in June 2020.’


Amendment (c)Jo SwinsonTom BrakeMr Alistair CarmichaelChuka UmunnaWera HobhouseSir Edward Davey

Heidi Allen Luciana Berger Sir Vince Cable Jane Dodds Tim Farron Mr Sam Gyimah Christine Jardine Dr Phillip Lee Layla Moran Angela Smith Jamie Stone Dr Sarah Wollaston Norman Lamb Ann Coffey Joan Ryan Mike Gapes

At end add ‘but believe that your Government should make arrangements for a people’s vote in which the public will have the choice between the latest withdrawal agreement and remaining in the European Union.’

Amendment (d)Faisal RashidGordon MarsdenDanielle RowleyTonia AntoniazziJohn McNallyCatherine West

Grahame Morris Emma Dent Coad Rosie Cooper Sir Mark Hendrick Clive Efford Afzal Khan Naz Shah Kate Green Bill Esterson Teresa Pearce Kate Hollern Ged Killen Jack Dromey Debbie Abrahams Yasmin Qureshi Justin Madders Lilian Greenwood Rushanara Ali Mr Khalid Mahmood Mohammad Yasin Layla Moran Christine Jardine Cat Smith

At end add ‘but respectfully regret that there were no proposals to ban hydraulic fracturing contained in the Gracious Speech; and calls on the Government to bring forward legislative proposals to ban hydraulic fracturing with immediate effect.’

Amendment (e)Frank FieldRuth GeorgeAt end add ‘but respectfully regret that the Gracious Speech did not set out proposals to improve the living standards of the poor; and calls on the Government to reverse the caps on, and freezes to, benefits and tax credits, and enshrine a universal commitment to free access to cash across the post office network.’


Amendment (f)Jeremy CorbynJonathan AshworthBarry GardinerEmily ThornberryRebecca Long BaileyMr Nicholas Brown

Caroline Lucas

At end add ‘but respectfully regrets that the Gracious Speech does not repeal the Health and Social Care Act 2012 to restore a publicly provided and administered National Health Service and protect it from future trade agreements that would allow private companies competing for services who put profit before public health and that could restrict policy decisions taken in the public interest.’
