My Lords, I am very grateful to all noble Lords who took part in this really interesting, albeit short, debate. We have to understand that this is the first of what will necessarily be further debates at some point later in the autumn in relation to the

I am most grateful to noble Lords for this short but really rather—forgive the pun—constructive debate. I think we were trying to probe quite how the Government are thinking about the implementation of a ban on retention payments. The Minister was very c

My Lords, with Clause 11 and this group we move to the question of retention payments. We should not elide the question of late payments and retention payments, as if they were somehow part of the same argument. They are different arguments. Retention pa

Before the noble and learned Lord, Lord Thomas of Cwmgiedd, responds, can I just ask the Minister something? It seems to me that he is accepting the proposition, with which I entirely agree, that the nature of e-invoicing and the use of electronic trade

The Minister is changing the Procurement Act with this Bill. The power to reduce the payment term to below 30 days was in the Procurement Act. It is being renewed here and extended to construction contracts. In the Procurement Act provision, the period

Historical Forced Adoption
In 1997 and 1998, I served on the Health Select Committee, along with Ann Keen, under the chairmanship of David Hinchliffe, on the inquiry into child migration. That report led the way, not least in the sense that it promoted the responsibility of the st
My Lords, it is a great pleasure to follow the noble Viscount, Lord Stansgate. I was much entertained by his speech. He, along with the Bill’s proposer, rightly said that this is not about trying to restrict lobbying activity; rather, it is about trying
My Lords, I wonder if I might intervene at this stage. The Committee will recall—pretty much everybody in the Committee was present during the Planning and Infrastructure Bill’s passage—that, going back to the Levelling-up and Regeneration Act, I have be
