  • A Guide to the Government for BIA Members
    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 26 June 2020 This is a briefing for BIA members on the Government led by Boris Johnson and key ministerial appointments for our sector after the December 2019 General Election and February 2020 Cabinet reshuffle. Following the Conservative Party’s compelling victory, the Government now holds a majority of 80 seats in the House of Commons. The life sciences sector is high on the Government’s agenda and Boris Johnson has pledged to make the UK “the leading global hub for life sciences after Brexit”. With its strong majority, the Government has the power to enact the policies supportive of the sector in the Conservatives 2019 Manifesto. All in all, this indicates a positive outlook for life sciences during this Government’s tenure.

    LETTER BY OVER 100 RURAL BUSINESS OWNERS to PM & SECRETARIES OF STATE 25 September 2020 The letter below is also signed by a further four businesses, represented by seven individuals, who requested their names be withheld from publication. It was published in the East Anglian Daily Times https://www.eadt.co.uk/news/sizewell-c-construction-opposed-by-suffolk-businesses-2700468 To: The Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP, The Rt Hon Alok Sharma MP, The Rt Hon George Eustice MP, Minette Batters, President National Farmers’ Union Mark Bridgeman, President, Country Landowners’ Association Stephen Miles, President, Suffolk Agricultural Association cc Rt Hon Lord Goldsmith of Richmond Park, Victoria Prentis MP, Lord Gardiner of Kimble, The Rt Hon Therese Coffey MP, Dr Dan Poulter MP, Peter Aldous MP, The Rt Hon Matt Hancock MP, James Cartlidge MP, Jo Churchill MP, Tom Hunt MP Cllrs Matthew Hicks and Richard Rout, Suffolk County Council. Cllrs Steve Gallant and Craig Rivett, East Suffolk Council We the undersigned, as rural business owners, farmers and landowners in Suffolk, write to express our opposition to EDF’s plans to build two new nuclear reactors at Sizewell. The threat of Sizewell C has been hanging over the heads of many of our number for at least eight years now with no immediate end in sight. This would be tolerable if the Sizewell C project was for the “greater good” but we have concluded that it is not necessary to meet the UK’s commitment to net zero, and would be a slow, risky and expensive waste of taxpayers’ money that removes opportunities to make use of alternative, green, deliverable and cost-effective energy solutions.

It has been updated to reflect the changes in the Cabinet following the resignations in the aftermath of the government’s proposed Brexit deal. The Conservative government does not have a parliamentary majority of MPs but has a confidence and supply deal with the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). The DUP will support the government in key votes, such as on the Queen's Speech and Budgets. This gives the government a working majority of 13.

  • House of Commons Hansard
    House of Commons Hansard The Government's Plan for Brexit 07 December 2016 Volume 618 Mr Speaker I inform the House that I have selected amendment (a) in the name of the Prime Minister. 12:51:00 Keir Starmer (Holborn and St Pancras) (Lab) I beg to move, That this House recognises that leaving the EU is the defining issue facing the UK; notes the resolution on parliamentary scrutiny of the UK leaving the EU agreed by the House on 12 October 2016; recognises that it is Parliament’s responsibility to properly scrutinise the Government while respecting the decision of the British people to leave the European Union; confirms that there should be no disclosure of material that could be reasonably judged to damage the UK in any negotiations to depart from the European Union after Article 50 has been triggered; and calls on the Prime Minister to commit to publishing the Government’s plan for leaving the EU before Article 50 is invoked. For months, Labour has been pressing the Prime Minister and the Government to set out their plan for Brexit. For months, the Prime Minister and a succession of Ministers have refused to do so, either in writing or from this Dispatch Box. Facing defeat on today’s motion, the Government have now caved in—last-minute amendments tell their own story and everybody knows it. This is a victory for common sense. I thank those from various Opposition parties who backed putting pressure on the Government to disclose their plan, and I thank the Conservative Members who, rightly, want to see far more detail about the approach their Front Benchers are intending to take.

  • Response from Anne-Marie Trevelyan
    The Rt Hon Anne-Marie Trevelyan MP Minister of State for Business, Energy and Clean Growth Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy 1 Victoria Street London SW1H 0ET James Cartlidge MP T +44 (0) 20 7215 5000 Member of Parliament for South Suffolk E [email protected] W www.gov.uk Dr Dan Poulter MP Our ref: MCSL2021/09373 Member of Parliament for Central Suffolk & North Ipswich Sir Bernard Jenkin MP Member of Parliament for Harwich and North Essex 19 April 2021 The Rt Hon James Cleverly MP Member of Parliament for Braintree Dear Colleagues, Thank you for your letter dated 23 March, communicating the views of your constituents on National Grid’s proposal to construct new electricity pylons along the Bramford to Twinstead route. I very much appreciate your support for this Government’s ambitious Net Zero and offshore wind targets, and I recognise your strong feelings on this matter. That said, I hope you will understand that it is not in the Department’s legal power to halt the activity of a private developer at this pre-application stage of the planning process. Moreover, intervening now to steer National Grid’s conduct could only threaten the Secretary of State’s quasi-judicial independence and the neutral and impartial role that the Department plays in the planning system. The appropriate action at this stage is rather to allow National Grid to conduct its business as it finds proper, in the knowledge that it is the duty and responsibility of the Secretary of State to decide, at the end of the process, should the proposed development make it that far, whether National Grid’s approach to consultation has met the required standards of transparency, propriety, and thoroughness.
