19750 2001-02 1663 That this House notes the investigation by the British Union for the Abolition of Vivisection of marmoset brain research at the University of Cambridge and the concerns regarding the underestimation by the Home Office of the high degree of suffering likely to be experienced by the animals in categorising the licences as only moderate; and calls on the Government to set up an independent inquiry into the Cambridge research and the use of primates in experiments in the United Kingdom more generally; and introduce far greater transparency into the regulation of animal experiments, with particular reference to the cost benefit test and the severity of suffering likely to be involved.

Kaufman, Gerald 1 Kaufman, Gerald 2002-07-18 Proposed 19762 2001-02 1668 That this House is concerned that, leaving aside the argument for and against Public Private Partnership as a method of financing large projects, the supine negotiating positions adopted by Her Majesty's Government in respect of the London Underground PPP has resulted in a disastrous deal for London and the nation in a uniquely badly constructed PPP whose primary raison d'etre is to move large-scale expenditure off the Government's books; notes that the main failures were the Government's desire to set up this flagship PPP at whatever cost, leading to premature designation of preferred bidders and the exclusion of Transport for London because its views and advice were inconsistent with policy, all which ensured that the public sector negotiated from weakness and the private sector has been able to transfer virtually all the risks it was supposedly to be accepting to the public, leaving Government with responsibility for 95 per cent. of any debts, while the deficit for which London Underground is responsible over the first seven and a half years will rise to between ú771 million and ú1.2 billion, to be paid for out of increased fares and/or an increased government contribution; and this House recommends that Her Majesty's Government should never again put the public interest over a barrel so as to ensure that no other PPP ever provides such a bad deal to the nation and such a safe bet to the private sector.

further notes that figures produced by BT for the year 2000 indicated that as many as half of the five million calls made to emergency services were false, costing the tax payer in excess of ú32 million and endangering the lives of many people in need; believes that the current penalties for such offences of a maximum of six months imprisonment or a ú5,000 fine do not represent appropriate punishment for such a crime; further notes that in the 18 years since the Telecommunications Act was introduced, no hoax callers have been prosecuted under it; and calls on the Government to take a zero tolerance approach to hoax callers and calls for a review of sentencing policy to address this serious crime.

Chaytor, David 2 Chaytor, David 2002-10-23 Proposed Connarty, Michael 2002-11-06 Signed 19925 2001-02 1805 That this House notes that the total capital value of all PFI/PPP projects signed by 31st July was ú22.5 billion and that had this been raised by public borrowing, the public sector net debt would increase by 2 per cent. to just over 32 per cent. of GDP; further notes that adding on the scheduled increase in public borrowing of 0.5 per cent. of GDP by 2005-06 as detailed in the April 2002 Budget would still leave the UK with public debt of less than 33 per cent. GDP; further notes that on the European basis for measuring national debt the UK's is 39 per cent. compared with a European average of 63 per cent. and that whilst borrowing in some European countries is clearly too high, the UK's is too low, especially if it means the public sector has to pay unnecessarily high charges for borrowing carried out on its behalf by private companies; further notes the profound misgivings about the PFI revealed by the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants survey; refutes the argument that the only way to provide the necessary increases in investment in the national infrastructure is through PFI; and urges the Government to fund public investment by a prudent increase in public borrowing.
