Middle East: Iran Conflict
My Lords, we must never forget that Iran holds innocent British citizens as political hostages in that country. I very much hope that, given increased stability in the region, the Foreign Office can work harder to release people such as the Foremans who

World Ocean Day
My Lords, one of the increasing issues for our porpoises, dolphins and whales is that of increasing marine noise. Defra published a policy document at the beginning of last year, which I welcomed, but will the Minister tell us what progress has been mad
My Lords, it is a great pleasure to listen to the Minister. He is the one Minister who, I know, if we asked for a one-and-a-half-hour explanation, he would be able to do it without notes because of his deep knowledge. When I looked at the Explanatory Not

Chemicals (Health and Safety) (Amendment, Consequential and Transitional Provision) Regulations 2026
My Lords, it is worth saying that the chemical industry—under pressure, indeed, as the noble Lord, Lord Redwood, said—is still a very important manufacturing sector in this country. It pays good wages, has high employment and, perhaps more importantly, i

Electricity: Domestic Pricing
My Lords, the most effective way of bringing down household energy bills is through the energy efficiency of homes. I welcome the Government’s move to apply the future homes standard, which will bring up energy efficiency, but they are not going to imple
My Lords, I thank the Minister for his comments, and I particularly thank the noble Baroness, Lady Scott, for her excellent comments. This is the first time I have put down an amendment that has been rejected by the Government partly because it gets in t

Ukraine: Reparation
My Lords, given that Ukraine has gone slightly below the radar because of the Middle East, does the Minister agree that the coverage over the past year was quite negative about Ukraine, but it has turned out more recently that Ukraine does have the cards

Onshore Wind Farms
My Lords, I welcome the Minister’s positive reply. There are some 200 wind farm sites coming up for operational termination by 2030—some 3 megawatts of power. If we managed to repower those, we could have an additional 2 gigawatts without having new site

Energy Markets
My Lords, the person smiling this evening is President Putin of the Russian Federation, because an economy that was hugely under pressure is going to be relieved when it comes to oil prices. In fact, I read this evening that Putin has offered to help Eur
My Lords, I thank the noble Baroness for that contribution. I am interested in what she said. Unlike many noble Lords here, I am not into London politics at all, but that speech almost painted an ideal situation in London between different levels of loca
My Lords, perhaps I could follow on from the noble Lord, Lord Bassam, very much in the same vein of argument. One thing that shocked me, reading some of the background to this, was that local transport authorities do not have this power at the moment. It

Water White Paper
My Lords, one of the areas that the White Paper does not even mention is the voluntary sector, particularly citizen science, which has been fundamental in calling water companies to account—in the Wye valley and other areas. As well as not mentioning cit

My Lords, I also welcome the noble Lord, Lord Moynihan, and his expertise to the Front Bench. He is certainly a very effective parliamentarian, even if I do not agree very much with his narrative. But we will see where we get to there.

My Lords, the treaty came into operation on Saturday, so this is a very appropriate day. My only sadness on this excellent occasion is that, as I said on Report, I believe that this is probably one of the last agreements that we will have internationally

Ukraine and Wider Operational Update
My Lords, let us be quite clear that Mr Putin does not want a ceasefire under any circumstances—it is not going to happen. Without wanting to sound trite, I pay tribute to the armed forces of Ukraine, which are defending our freedom in Europe with their
My Lords, I thank the Minister for going through those technicalities. These Benches welcome the effectiveness of devolution for this sort of implementation legislation, as I am sure the whole House does. The one question I have for the Minister, althoug
My Lords, the greatest delight is that the noble Lord and the noble Baroness actually agreed with each other; that seemed highly unusual, having sat through the previous debate. I have brought about a coming together of the two of them—at least that is p
My Lords, one of the core characteristics of the Bill is, obviously, a treaty that is about actions beyond national jurisdictions. In fact, we should celebrate it even more, because I suspect it will be one of the last of these treaties that we shall enj
