Brown, Ron 1 Brown, Ron 1992-02-27 Proposed 3783 1991-92 773 That this House expresses its concerns that increases in commercial rents significantly above the rate of inflation make it extremely difficult for independent and specialist traders to survive, discourage economic diversity and hinder the growth of new enterprises and innovation; notes that new leases are now being agreed with lower rents in the recent past because of the current recession, but that many small businesses are still paying exorbitant rents demanded by landlords in leases agreed at the height of the property boom; believes that the historical identity of local communities and areas of national interest are being lost as a result of the imposition of so-called market rents which are in reality distorted by planning controls and the tax system; regrets that as a result independent shops and restaurants are forced out of business to be replaced by chain stores and offices; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to establish a cross-department working party to bring forward urgent proposals to prevent excessive rent increases, thus ensuring that the independent trader has a viable future.

this House deplores the delay in effecting any real progress toward leasehold reform; expresses concern that many owners of leasehold residential property in many parts of London are still being denied the right to extend their leases or to enfranchise their property; is appalled that many flat dwellers are still being denied the opportunity to buy the freehold or commonhold of their property or to choose who should be responsible for their property's management; is very worried at the growing number of householders who have lost their homes because of leases expiring; fears that a second class market of leases of under 40 years is developing, causing financial hardship to those whose life savings are invested in such leases; notes that the honourable Member for Ealing, Acton, promised in a statement to the House on 12th July 1991 that legislation would be introduced to provide for the freehold ownership and communal management of flats; further notes that no legislation has been introduced; therefore calls for interim measures to be introduced immediately to protect and improve the rights of leaseholders; and demands that the Minister for Housing makes an urgent statement.

Bottomley, Peter 1 Bottomley, Peter 1992-03-05 Proposed 3848 1991-92 823 That this House notes with regret that the Department of Education and Science has arranged regionally-based seminars covering key educational issues for members of training and enterprise councils and has not invited local education authorities to participate; and calls upon the Government to ensure that local education authorities are offered a full and continuing role in the planning and delivery of education in this country. Fearn, Ronnie 1 Fearn, Ronnie 1992-03-11 Proposed 3849 1991-92 824 That this House condemns the recent removal of the portrait of Miss Jean Gillespie, known as "Letter Jeanie", the first postwoman in Turriff from the Turriff Post Office, to Post Office Headquarters in Edinburgh; supports the view of Turriff residents that the portrait is part of their heritage and should be on display locally; and calls on the Post Office to take steps to ensure that the portrait is promptly returned to where it belongs.

Lord, Michael 5 Lord, Michael 1992-03-06 Proposed Boyson, Rhodes 1992-03-06 Signed Dunn, Bob 1992-03-06 Signed Wells, Bowen 1992-03-06 Signed Arnold, Jacques 1992-03-09 Signed 3853 1991-92 827 That an humble Address be presented to Her Majesty, praying that the Community Charges and Non-Domestic Rating (Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations 1992 (S.I., 1992, No. 474), dated 6th February 1992, a copy of which was laid before this House on 6th February, be annulled.

Cook, Frank 16 Cook, Frank 1992-03-09 Proposed McCartney, Ian 1992-03-10 Signed Cryer, Bob 1992-03-11 Signed Cummings, John 1992-03-11 Signed Evans, John 1992-03-11 Signed Barnes, Harry 1992-03-11 Signed Ross, William 1992-03-12 Signed Loyden, Eddie 1992-03-12 Signed Campbell, Ronnie 1992-03-12 Signed Campbell-Savours, DN 1992-03-12 Signed Clelland, David 1992-03-12 Signed Cohen, Harry 1992-03-12 Signed Dunnachie, Jimmy 1992-03-12 Signed Griffiths, Win 1992-03-12 Signed Beggs, Roy 1992-03-12 Signed Battle, John 1992-03-13 Signed 3858 1991-92 831 That this House notes the importance of preserving parklands for recreational use and not allowing encroachments, however worthy, for commercial profit; notes the deep concern of people in the area of Western Park in the constituency of the honourable Member for Leicester West and the proposal for a world life centre to be built in Western Park; recognises additional dangers and inconvenience which would be caused by traffic brought to that area by such a commercial venture in Western Park; expresses its concern that the environment in the area should be preserved; and calls for the world life centre project to be sited elsewhere than in Western Park. Janner, Greville 1 Janner, Greville 1992-03-09 Proposed 3859 1991-92 832 That this House, conscious of the difficulties faced by British farmers in the context of the Common Agriculture Policy of the European Community, and the continuing refusal by other countries in the Community to make reforms necessary to reflect the efficiency of the British farmers, calls on Her Majesty's Government to continue to press for the reform of the Common Agricultural Policy to reject all unnecessary and unacceptable legislative proposals generated by the European Commission which add further costs to the British farmers and to reject the MacSharry proposals which are so damaging to the interest and incomes of British farmers and the rural economy of Britain.

C. Watt of Peat Marwick McLintock in the spring of 1989; notes that the report deals with the massive fraud of Syed Akbar, who until 1986 was chief trader in the Treasury division of BCCI and the person mainly responsible for disclosed losses of $225 million at BCCI in 1985-86; notes that according to the report Capcom was set up to deal with futures business either for BCCI's own account or on behalf of its clients; notes that the report makes a nonsense of the claim of the Bank of England that they have no reason to believe that there was large scale fraud at BCCI until they received the section 41 report from Price Waterhouse in 1991; believes that Parliament and the public have been misled on this issue; and notes that the honourable Member for Hackney South and Shoreditch intends to provide Lord Justice Bingham with a copy of the section 105 report.

and xenophobia and the Council's reaffirmation of the European Parliament, Council and Commission's declaration against racism and xenophobia on 11th June 1986, and the declaration issued in Dublin on 26th June 1990 expressing its revulsion against racist sentiments and manifestations, finding these manifestations including expressions of prejudice and violence against foreign immigrants and exploitation of them unacceptable; further welcomes the European Council's expressed conviction that respect for human dignity is essential to the Europe of the Community, and that combating discrimination in all its forms is therefore vital to the European Community, as a community of states governed by the rule of law, and the European Council's consideration that it is necessary that the governments and parliaments of the member states should act clearly and unambiguously to counter the growth of sentiments of racism and xenophobia; further recognises its obligation to pursue and counter racism and xenophobia; and therefore welcomes the formation of the Anti-Racist Alliance. which has been established to co-ordinate activities against racism in Britain.

Fearn, Ronnie 1 Fearn, Ronnie 1992-01-23 Proposed 4080 1991-92 554 That this House urges Welsh Water plc not to worry about its image; notes that employees and services of Welsh Water are well-regarded and what is unpopular is the company's privatised status and large water bills; considers that trying to change this reasonable public perception would be comparable to the pre-privatisation advertising campaign which portrayed milk floats delivering water to each household in order to persuade the public that water is important, assures Welsh Water that the people of Wales are not fools, that they know water is a daily necessity for which they pay a high price because of deliberate Government policies to privatise and to shift costs onto ordinary people; regrets that a company spokesman blamed politicians for the company's low image without specifying Conservatives as the culprits; believes that in a democracy Conservative honourable Members must answer to the electorate for supporting their Party's foolish decisions and that any attempt to change such a perception must count as an election expense and be shown in the books as a donation to Conservative Party funds; and calls on Welsh Water to recognise that, where the company's image has been tarnished by the appointment of a Conservative honourable Member to the lucrative role of P. R. consultant, by a high rate of disconnection, and by the 88 per cent. increase in the Chairman's salary to ú143,000, the way for the Board to win popularity is to change policies rather than waste money on a cosmetic exercise.

Smith, Chris 28 Smith, Chris 1992-01-28 Proposed Hoyle, Doug 1992-01-28 Signed Davis, Terry 1992-01-28 Signed Parry, Robert 1992-01-29 Signed Primarolo, Dawn 1992-01-29 Signed Ross, Ernie 1992-01-29 Signed Loyden, Eddie 1992-01-29 Signed McAllion, John 1992-01-29 Signed McKelvey, William 1992-01-29 Signed Nellist, Dave 1992-01-29 Signed Cook, Frank 1992-01-29 Signed Barnes, Harry 1992-01-29 Signed Pike, Peter L 1992-01-30 Signed Lloyd, Tony 1992-01-30 Signed Mahon, Alice 1992-01-30 Signed Cummings, John 1992-01-30 Signed Evans, John 1992-01-30 Signed Graham, Thomas 1992-01-30 Signed Grocott, Bruce 1992-01-30 Signed Turner, Dennis 1992-01-30 Signed Watson, Mike 1992-01-30 Signed Wray, Jimmy 1992-01-30 Signed Jones, Martyn 1992-02-03 Signed McCartney, Ian 1992-02-04 Signed Hood, Jim 1992-02-05 Signed Cryer, Bob 1992-02-05 Signed Thompson, Jack 1992-02-10 Signed Redmond, Martin 1992-02-12 Signed 4108 1991-92 574 That this House notes the fact that Labour Members spoke vehemently against Clause 16 of the Education (Schools) Bill, which makes provision for parents to be furnished with details of their children's schools performance, yet failed to vote against it; that Labour have consistently refused to support parental choice in education while their own front bench spokesman made use of such provisions; notes their distrust of parents; and urges them to clarify their position during the Report stage of the Bill.

Johnston, Russell 1 Johnston, Russell 1992-02-10 Proposed 4199 1991-92 644 That this House believes that imprisonment without evidence or a fair trial is wrong in principle and that internment of suspected terrorists in Northern Ireland would be a mistake of historic proportions; recognises that, in the light of recent tragic incidents, calls for the introduction of internment may be understandable but that its introduction would be entirely counter-productive; further believes that internment would not only be an affront to civil liberties and put the British Government in the international dock but it would also, as in the past, increase support for paramilitaries, further divide communities along sectarian lines and sow confusion, anger and resentment in these communities that the paramilitaries could feed on; instead urges increased democracy, economic reform and support for peace activities to create the space for non-sectarian politics in Northern Ireland which could undermine paramilitary activities and allow wider demilitarisation of the Province; and stresses the urgency of economic reform since mass unemployment, poverty and deprivation provide the bitter breeding grounds for sectarianism and paramilitarism.
