Paul Blomfield Jeremy Corbyn Keir Starmer Jenny Chapman Nick Thomas-Symonds Mr Nicholas Brown Christine Jardine Hywel Williams Liz Saville Roberts Jonathan Edwards Ben Lake Caroline Lucas Stuart C. McDonald 16 Clause 7,page9, line 36, leave out from beginning to “may” in line 42 on page 10 and insert— “(1) This section applies to— (a) European Union citizens having the right to reside permanently in the UK according to Article 15 (“Rights of permanent residence”) of the Withdrawal Agreement; (b) persons to whom the provisions in (a) does not apply but who are eligible for indefinite leave to remain or limited leave to enter or remain by virtue of residence scheme immigration rules (see section 17).”. (2) A person under subsection (1) has the rights and obligations provided in Article 12 and Title II Part II ‘Citizens’ Rights’ of the Withdrawal Agreement. (3) The Secretary of State must by regulations make provision— (a) implementing article 18(4) of the withdrawal agreement (right of eligible citizens to receive a residence document), including making provision for a physical document providing proof of residence; (b) implementing article 17(4) of the EEA EFTA separation agreement (right of eligible citizens to receive a residence document) including making provision for a physical document providing proof of residence; (c) implementing article 16(4) of the Swiss citizens’ rights agreement (right of eligible citizens to receive a residence document). 4 Committee: 29 October 2019 European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill, continued (4) Nothing in this or any other enactment may be used to implement Article 18(1) of the withdrawal agreement.

Stuart C. McDonald Tom Brake Mr Chris Leslie Sir Vince Cable Mike Gapes Caroline Lucas Dr Philippa Whitford 4 Clause 7,page9, line 36, leave out from “Crown” to end of Clause and insert “must by regulations make provision— (a) implementing article 18(4) of the withdrawal agreement (right of eligible citizens to receive a residence document), including making provision for a physical document; (b) implementing article 17(4) of the EEA EFTA separation agreement (right of eligible citizens to receive a residence document) including making provision for a physical document; and (c) implementing article 16(4) of the Swiss citizens’ rights agreement (right of eligible citizens to receive a residence document).” Member’s explanatory statement This amendment would mean that that EEA and Swiss citizens residing in the UK would automatically have rights under article 18(4) of the withdrawal agreement (and equivalent provisions in the EEA EFTA and Swiss citizens rights agreements) rather than having to apply for them. Jo Swinson Tom Brake Mr Alistair Carmichael Stuart C. McDonald Mr Chris Leslie Mr Dominic Grieve Caroline Lucas Heidi Allen Stella Creasy Mary Creagh Dr Philippa Whitford Mr David Lammy Luciana Berger Mr Sam Gyimah Stephen Doughty Anna Soubry Dr Sarah Wollaston Sir Vince Cable Dr Phillip Lee Chuka Umunna Mike Gapes 5 Clause 7,page10, line 41, at end insert— “(3A) Regulations made under this section may not prevent EEA and Swiss nationals, or their family members, who are resident in the United Kingdom on or prior to 31 December 2020 applying for settled status at any time.” Committee: 29 October 2019 5 European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill, continued Stuart C.

(3B) The residence scheme immigration rules (see section 17) may not be amended so as to reduce the range of persons eligible for leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom by virtue of those rules (other than by primary legislation), but other persons may be added as Ministers consider appropriate.” Member’s explanatory statement These new subsections would ensure that the range of persons entitled under UK law to benefit from the rights set out in the Withdrawal Agreement cannot be reduced except by primary legislation. Paul Blomfield Jeremy Corbyn Keir Starmer Jenny Chapman Nick Thomas-Symonds Mr Nicholas Brown 66 Clause 11,page14, line 2, leave out subsection (1) and insert— “(1) A person may appeal against a citizens’ rights immigration decision to the First- tier Tribunal.” Paul Blomfield Jeremy Corbyn Keir Starmer Jenny Chapman Nick Thomas-Symonds Mr Nicholas Brown 67 Clause 11,page14, line 24, leave out subsections (3) and (4) and insert— “(3) Subject to subsection (4), while an appeal is pending, the person concerned shall be deemed to have all the rights associated with indefinite leave to remain under the residence scheme immigration rules, in particular as concerns residence, employment, access to social security benefits and other services. (4) Subsection (3) does not apply to an appeal against a decision falling within subsection (2)(a) or (c). (4A) “Pending” shall have the same meaning for the purposes of subsections (3) and (4) as in section 104 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.” 6 Committee: 29 October 2019 European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Bill, continued Stuart C. McDonald 65 Clause 11,page14, line 25, leave out “(including judicial reviews)” Member’s explanatory statement This amendment would remove the power being provided to ministers to make regulations about judicial review of certain immigration decisions.

  • Harriet Harman MP for Camberwell and Peckham
    Harriet Harman MP for Camberwell and Peckham Parliamentary Report — September/October 2018 In 2018 my constituency priority is the NHS Action to tackle delays and overcrowding at local stations For too long people in Camberwell and Peckham have put up with dangerous overcrowding and unacceptable delays at Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye stations, and Helen Hayes MP and I have been demanding the Rail Minister, Jo Johnson MP works with Network Rail and Thameslink to make the stations safe. After months of pressure on 9th October Jo Johnson MP wrote to us to tell us that Denmark Hill station has been made a ‘high priority’ for urgent work to address overcrowding. Network Rail have started work into how to provide additional capacity at the station and this is due to complete in March 2019. Helen and I are seeking a meeting with Network Rail to discuss plans for the improved Denmark Hill and Peckham Rye stations and will keep you updated. Shocking treatment of young people in detention The Joint Committee on Human Rights, which I chair, is undertaking an inquiry into how to protect the human rights of children and young people who are detained by the state, in particular in mental health hospitals and youth offending institutions. Serious concerns have been raised by inspectors, lawyers and doctors about how often children are put in solitary confinement, which increases the risk of self-harm and long term mental health problems, and the use of restraint techniques which involve deliberately inflicting pain. We heard first-hand from a young woman who experienced restraint and isolation whilst detained in a mental hospital.

  • Qualifying for the Race to Net Zero X How to Solve the Net Zero Skills Challenge
    Qualifying for the race to net zero x How to solve the net zero skills challenge Ted Christie-Miller | Alex Luke About Onward Onward is a campaigning thinktank whose mission is to develop new ideas for the next generation of centre right thinkers and leaders. We exist to make Britain fairer, more prosperous and more united, by generating a new wave of modernising ideas and a fresh kind of politics that reaches out to new groups of people. We believe in a mainstream conservatism – one that recognises the value of markets and supports the good that government can do, is unapologetic about standing up to vested interests, and assiduous in supporting the hardworking, aspirational and those left behind. Our goal is to address the needs of the whole country: young as well as old; urban as well as rural; and for all parts of the UK – particularly places that feel neglected or ignored in Westminster. We will achieve this by developing practical policies that work. Our team has worked both at a high level in government and for successful thinktanks. We know how to produce big ideas that resonate with policymakers, the media and the public. We will engage ordinary people across the country and work with them to make our ideas a reality. Onward is an independent, not-for-profit thinktank, registered in England and Wales (Company Registration no. 11326052). Thanks The authors would like to thank the steering group of Onward’s Getting to Zero programme for their support and advice throughout the formation of this report, and the Purpose Foundation and the European Climate Foundation for their financial support for the programme.

  • General Election 12Th December
    SNAPSHOT OF RESULTS IN THE NORTHERN REGIONS - NORTH EAST, NORTH WEST AND YORKSHIRE & HUMBER What does a Conservative government mean for housing? The Conservative Party has gained significant ground in Northern constituencies, making 30 gains, and taking control of constituencies which have been safe Labour seats for many decades. The last time the North had such a significant presence within a governing party at Westminster was after Tony Blair’s third victory in 2005. It is worth considering the potential impact of the national and regional results for housing in the North. Below, we re-cap what the Conservative manifesto promised on housing and regional investment and outline key results – where seats have changed parties, or new candidates have been elected Likely policy priorities for the new government The Conservative manifesto promised the levelling up of the regions and investment in Northern infrastructure and the Northern Powerhouse. With Conservative gains in many traditional Labour constituencies in the North, this pledge takes on greater resonance for those newly elected Northern Conservative MPs : we can expect the new government to have a greater stake and interest in the region. These are the headlines from the Conservative manifesto • A continued pledge to build 300,000 homes a year by the mid-2020s – but no target for social housing within the overall number. • Commitment to renew the Affordable Homes Programme. • Incentives for homeownership will be key to housing policy. • Full implementation of the Homelessness Reduction Act, and to end rough sleeping. • For private renters, a continued promise to scrap Section 21 and end no-fault evictions.
