Debate between Anne-Marie Trevelyan and John Glen

Tuesday 11th September 2018 Commons Chamber

[John Glen]

We have made several interventions since we responded in 2014 with bailiff law reform. I have spoken to the Ministry of Justice, and we continue to look carefully at the matter. We have arrangements in place through the Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs time to pay scheme, and the Cabinet Office has its fairness group as well.

[Mrs Anne-Marie Trevelyan (Berwick-upon-Tweed) (Con)]

Will the Chancellor update the House on his commitment to investing further in the Royal Navy, which is a vital tool for maintaining safe seas and oceans, so that trade coming out of north-east and other ports can be sustained and can underwrite economic growth?
