fails to include nursing care that is provided by trained care staff specialised in providing nursing care to dementia sufferers; recognises the campaign by the Alzheimer's Society; and calls upon the Government to address the shortcomings of its nursing care policy which has been described by many as unworkable.

notes that UK health worker permit initial application approvals have risen in each of the last four years; further notes that figures taken from the register of the General Medical Council show that two thirds of entrants in 2004 were from overseas; believes that the international traffic in healthcare workers is contributing to the collapse of health systems in sub-Saharan Africa; is concerned that the Government's Code of Practice on ethical recruitment from developing countries has not been signed up to by all the agencies used by the NHS to recruit nurses from overseas; calls on the Government to play its full part in promoting ethical recruitment and sustainable development by banning the NHS from using recruiting agencies which have not signed up to its own Code of Practice; and believes that the Government should do more to improve recruitment and retention of nurses from the United Kingdom.

in Burma; and calls on Total Oil to follow the example of Premier Oil, British American Tobacco and dozens of other companies, and withdraw from Burma.

this House believes that the cushion style road hump is of a flawed design, allowing motorbikes to pass through the centre and being more uncomfortable to traverse at 10 mph than at 60 mph; notes that most disabled friendly buses, many fire engines, police cars, ambulances and hearses cannot straddle these road humps; further notes that on-street parking totally undermines the design principles of cushion road humps; and calls for cushion road humps to be banned throughout the country and replaced with sensible, effective traffic calming measures.

notes that those waiting for non-urgent referrals can now wait up to 17 weeks for an appointment and that there is no evidence overall waiting times have improved; further notes the Prime Minister's pledge that non-urgent referrals will be seen within two weeks by 2008 but believes that frontline clinical staff should be free from political targets to prioritise referrals on the basis of clinical need; expresses further concern that the Government's 18-week waiting time pledge from GP referral to treatment considers only the first stage of treatment and therefore ignores the significant delays in completing treatment in areas such as radiotherapy; further notes that the most recent figures from the Royal College of Radiologists show that the percentage of patients waiting longer than the maximum acceptable waiting time more than doubled between 1998 and 2003 for the radical and palliative categories; and calls on the Government to assess whether these targets have served to move patients from one queue to another.

notes that existing byways open to all traffic will still be subject to imappropriate and unsustainable use by recreational motor vehicles; is concerned that the most precious countryside in the National Parks and Areas of Outstanding Beauty and National Trails such as the Ridgeway continue to suffer appalling damage; and urges the Government to take action forthwith to protect these areas by reclassifying existing unsurfaced byways open to all traffic as restricted byways and by issuing better guidance on enforcement to enable the relevant authorities to take swift and effective action where recreational vehicles are being driven illegally.

Cheaper, Legal campaign by the Association of British Insurers to draw attention to the UK's high levels of uninsured driving and to promote policy proposals contained in submissions to the Greenaway Review established by the Department of Transport; notes that in the UK approximately five per cent. of motorists on the roads are currently driving without insurance, which costs policyholders around £500 million a year in compensation payments for injury or property damage equivalent to around £30 on every motor premium; recognises that systems need to be introduced to stop such practices which cause misery and damaged lives to many; and calls upon the Government quickly to establish links between the existing Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority and motor insurance databases, so that a system of continuous monitoring and enforcement can be introduced.

World War Two should be recognised with a medal; regrets that the men who served in the severest of weather conditions, unlike any other in the war, whilst running the gauntlet of air and submarine attack, in order to maintain supplies to Russia on the Eastern Front have never been properly recognised; therefore supports the campaign being run by the Portsmouth News; and calls on the Prime Minister to require the Honours and Decorations Committee to recommend to Her Majesty the Queen that an Arctic star, or clasp, is created in order finally to recognise the unique contribution, and sacrifice, made by these veterans.
