Until 7.00pm (Standing Order No. 9(3))
Proposed subject for debate: Health, Social Care and Security
That an Humble Address be presented to Her Majesty, as follows:
Most Gracious Sovereign,
We, Your Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the Commons of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Northern Ireland in Parliament assembled, beg leave to offer our humble
thanks to Your Majesty for the Gracious Speech which Your Majesty has addressed to both

John McNally Chris Stephens Martin Docherty-Hughes
Jo Swinson Tom Brake
At end add 'but respectfully regret that the Gracious Speech does not include vital
protections for EU nationals living in the UK now and after withdrawal from the EU; and
believe that the Gracious Speech should unilaterally confirm that EU nationals living in
the UK can retain their right to remain.'.
Amendment (b)
Caroline Lucas
Mr David Lammy
Chris Law
Layla Moran
Liz Saville Roberts
Kerry McCarthy
Helen Goodman Jo Swinson Tom Brake
Stephen Lloyd
At end add 'but respectfully regret that the Gracious Speech fails to put in place effective
measures to protect the environment ahead of the UK’s exit from the EU; believe that, in
negotiating our future relationship with the EU, the Government should opt for the most
environmentally effective way forward and not insist on pursuing freedom from all forms
of EU authority; call on the Government to introduce a new Environmental Protection Bill
to transfer all relevant EU law into domestic law by way of primary legislation; call for that
legislation to include the meaningful transfer of existing targets and to set new and
ambitious targets, establish formal mechanisms for alignment with EU standards, and
establish and fund an independent framework for guaranteeing implementation and
compliance, including transparent and accountable reporting structures and access for
citizens to environmental justice; believe that the precautionary and the polluter pays
principles, as well as the principle of integrating environmental goals into other policies,
should be incorporated into domestic frameworks; call for additional measures designed
to restore the UK countryside and provide new sustainable settlements for agriculture and
fisheries; and note that the Environment Agency and Natural England will require
additional funding to monitor compliance, and that the Department for Environment, Food
and Rural Affairs will require extra strategic capacity to manage the transfer of powers.'.

Pete Wishart Jonathan Edwards Ben Lake
At end add 'but regret that the measures set out fail to meet the challenges facing the
majority of people living in the nations and regions of the UK; call in particular for the
Government to abandon its plans to pursue a hard Brexit and instead agree a new
position with all parties and all devolved governments that seeks to secure continued
membership of the Single Market; further call on the Government to halt further austerity
spending cuts, which are damaging the UK’s economic growth and punishing the
incomes of hard-working people, and to invest in public services to stimulate economic
growth; and call on the Government in particular to reverse the two-child policy and
remove the rape clause and lift the benefit freeze, to deliver intergenerational fairness by
implementing a transition for the WASPI women and a real Living Wage for all adults
above the age of 18, and to acknowledge its responsibility as a member of the
international community to contribute to the resolution of the refugee crisis in Europe.'.

Dame Margaret Hodge Jonathan Edwards Jo Swinson
Tom Brake Stephen Lloyd
At end add ‘but respectfully regret that measures to address the inequality in treatment of
women from Northern Ireland with regard to healthcare provision were not included in the
Gracious Speech; recognise that the UK currently provides funding for access to
healthcare services including abortion to residents of other nations as part of its
international development work; note that women from Northern Ireland have no choice
but to travel to England for abortion services and face serious difficulties in doing so, and
as such the current position risks the continuation of an unwanted pregnancy which may
cause distress or illness to the patient concerned purely on the basis of her place of
residence within the UK rather than any medical requirements; therefore call on the
Government to clarify, if necessary by legislating, that under section 1(1)(a) of the
National Health Service Act 2006 it is a requirement on the Secretary of State for Health
to prevent illness among those who wish to end an unwanted pregnancy, who are UK
taxpayers, by providing such services; and call on the Government to ensure the
provision of adequate funding and guidance so that all UK citizens including those from
Northern Ireland may access medical services including abortion procedures in England if
they so wish without charge, and that such provision does not interfere with decisions
made by the Northern Ireland Assembly with regard to the provision of such services in
Northern Ireland.’.

keep Britain in the Single Market and the Customs Union.’.
Amendment (f)
Liz Saville Roberts
Hywel Williams
Jonathan Edwards
Ben Lake
At end add 'but respectfully regret that the Gracious Speech fails to adequately ensure
that the interests of Wales are accounted for; note that the Gracious Speech does not
include a Welsh Infrastructure Bill to ensure the delivery of key projects including the
Swansea Bay Tidal Lagoon, upgrades to Welsh road and rail networks, and provision for
universal phone and broadband coverage; call on the Government to bring forward a Fuel
Poverty (Wales) Bill to give Wales ownership over its resources and allow Welsh citizens
to utilise their resources to lower the cost of energy; believe that measures should be
brought forward to ensure taxes paid in Wales are retained by the Welsh Government,
including Corporation Tax and VAT, and to ensure all EU funding is replaced by the UK
Government beyond 2022; and call on the Government to bring forward legislation on the
management of the Mineworkers’ Pension Scheme.'.

negotiations, set out transitional arrangements to maintain jobs, trade and certainty for
business, set out proposals to remain within the Customs Union and Single Market, set
out clear measures to respect the competencies of the devolved administrations, and
include clear protections for EU nationals living in the UK now, including retaining their

police officers and fire-fighters; and further call on the Government to end the public
sector pay cap and give the emergency and public services a fair pay rise.'.

further regret that the additional spending in Northern Ireland has not been matched by
