Climate Change and Nature Conservation: Planning
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Thursday 1st May 2025 Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, if she will take steps to ensure that planning (a) policies and (b) decisions support UK (i) nature and (ii) climate targets. Answered by Matthew Pennycook - Minister of State (Housing, Communities and Local Government) I refer the hon. Member to the answer given to Question UIN 41339 on 3 April 2025. |
Schools: Allergies
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Thursday 1st May 2025 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will make it her policy to mandate (a) allergy safety training, (b) the provision of spare epipens and (c) other allergy safety measures in schools. Answered by Catherine McKinnell - Minister of State (Education) Section 100 of the Children and Families Act 2014 places a duty on maintained schools, academies and pupil referral units to make arrangements for supporting pupils with medical conditions. The accompanying statutory guidance makes clear to schools what is expected of them in taking reasonable steps to fulfil their legal obligations and to meet the individual needs of pupils with medical conditions, including allergies. In 2017 the Department of Health published non-statutory guidance confirming that schools are able to purchase spare adrenaline auto injectors (AAIs) from a pharmacy, without a prescription and for use in an emergency situation. This guidance is kept under review and gives clear advice to schools on the recognition and management of an allergic reaction and anaphylaxis, and outlines when and how an AAI should be administered for pupils in schools.

Supply Teachers
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Wednesday 7th May 2025 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps her Department is taking to help ensure that supply teachers are provided with (a) appropriate access to staff facilities, (b) induction information on school policies, and (c) safeguarding procedures. Answered by Catherine McKinnell - Minister of State (Education) Supply teachers perform a valuable role and the department is grateful for their important contribution to schools across the country. A supply teacher’s pay and working conditions will depend on who employs them. Supply teachers employed directly by a state maintained school or local authority must be paid in accordance with the statutory arrangements for teachers laid down in the ‘school teachers’ pay and conditions document’. If a supply teacher is employed by a private agency or non-maintained school, the employer can set the rate of pay and conditions of employment. Schools and local authorities are currently responsible for the recruitment and deployment of their supply teachers. School leaders should ensure supply teachers are equipped with the necessary access and information to carry out their role effectively. There is an established robust safeguarding framework in place in the form of ‘keeping children safe in education’ (KCSIE), which is the statutory safeguarding guidance that all schools and colleges must have regard to when safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Part 1 of this guidance should be read by all staff who work directly with children and sets out the different types of abuse and harm, and supports all staff to know what signs to look out for, including how to respond to any concerns about a child. The statutory ‘special educational needs and disability code of practice’ states that all teachers and support staff who work with the pupils with special educational needs should be made aware of their needs, the outcomes sought, the support provided and any teaching strategies or approaches that are required. This should also be recorded on the school’s information system. All schools are required to have a behaviour policy that outlines effective strategies to promote good behaviour and specifies the sanctions for misbehaviour. This policy must be communicated to all pupils, school staff (including supply staff) and parents to ensure everyone is aware of the high standards of behaviour expected. The behaviour policy should also reflect the school's culture and be supported by all staff and senior leaders, including the head teacher. |
Supply Teachers
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Wednesday 7th May 2025 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what steps her Department is taking to help ensure that supply teachers are provided with up-to-date information on (a) pupils with (i) special educational needs and (ii) disabilities, and (b) behaviour management procedures.

Supply Teachers: Conditions of Employment and Pay
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Wednesday 7th May 2025 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether she has made an assessment of the adequacy of the (a) pay and (b) conditions for supply teachers relative to permanent teaching staff. Answered by Catherine McKinnell - Minister of State (Education) Supply teachers perform a valuable role and the department is grateful for their important contribution to schools across the country. A supply teacher’s pay and working conditions will depend on who employs them. Supply teachers employed directly by a state maintained school or local authority must be paid in accordance with the statutory arrangements for teachers laid down in the ‘school teachers’ pay and conditions document’.

Animal Products: Import Controls
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Friday 9th May 2025 Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what discussions he has had with the Secretary of State for Business and Trade on requiring imports of (a) eggs, (b) pork and (c) fur to meet UK animal welfare standards to be permitted for (i) import and (ii) sale in the UK. Answered by Daniel Zeichner - Minister of State (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) Ministers and officials meet regularly to address these important topics. The Government shares the public’s high regard for the UK’s environmental protections, food standards and animal welfare. We will promote robust standards nationally and internationally and will always consider whether overseas produce has an unfair advantage.
All agri-food products must comply with our import requirements in order to be placed on the UK market. This includes ensuring imported meat products have been slaughtered to animal welfare standards equivalent to our domestic standards.
The Government recognises the concerns about imports produced using methods not permitted in the UK. We have been clear that we will use our Trade Strategy to support economic growth and promote the highest standards of food production. |
Donald Trump
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Wednesday 7th May 2025 Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, if he will review the offer of a state visit to President Trump. Answered by Catherine West - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) No. |
Supply Teachers
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Wednesday 7th May 2025 Question to the Department for Education: To ask the Secretary of State for Education, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of including supply teachers in any forthcoming workforce strategy for (a) teacher recruitment and (b) teacher retention. Answered by Catherine McKinnell - Minister of State (Education) High quality teaching is the in school factor that has the biggest positive impact on children’s outcomes. Ensuring a high quality teaching workforce is therefore critical to the government’s mission to break down barriers to opportunity and boost life chances for every child. This is why the department will recruit 6,500 new expert teachers across secondary and special schools and colleges, get more teachers into shortage subjects, support areas that face recruitment challenges and tackle retention issues. Supply teachers make an important contribution to the smooth running of schools by filling posts on a temporary basis and covering teacher absences. School autonomy is vital to the health of our education system. Headteachers are ultimately responsible for employment in their schools, as they are best placed to understand the specific needs of their pupils and make staffing decisions accordingly. The department is determined to improve the attractiveness of the teaching profession so that existing teachers want to remain in it, former teachers want to return to it, and new graduates and career changers wish to join. We continue to incentivise teacher recruitment through increasing teacher trainee bursaries to £233 million in 2025/26, with a focus on shortage subjects, and doubling retention payments from this year. A successful recruitment strategy starts with a strong retention strategy, and we are doing more to improve wellbeing and reduce workload, including actively promoting flexible working such as allowing planning, preparation and assessment time to be taken from home. |
Disability: Social Services
Asked by: Manuela Perteghella (Liberal Democrat - Stratford-on-Avon) Thursday 8th May 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure that social care reform supports (a) deafblind people and (b) other disabled people with complex needs. Answered by Stephen Kinnock - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care) The Government recognises the challenges facing the adult social care system, and that people are suffering without the care they need or fighting a complicated system just to receive poor quality care. The independent commission into adult social care, chaired by Baroness Louise Casey, will work with people who draw on care and their families, as well as sector partners, to make clear recommendations for how to rebuild the adult social care system to meet the current and future needs of the population, including for deafblind people and other disabled people with complex needs. At the same time, we are committed to making immediate improvements. We will give disabled people more independence in their own homes through continued investment in the Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG), which funds practical changes that suit individual people’s needs. We have provided an uplift of £172 million across this and the last financial year, bringing the total funding for the DFG to £711 million in 2024/25 and 2025/26. The Government understands the vital importance of coproduction, working directly with people who draw on care and support, including deafblind people and others with complex needs, to design policies that work for them to make their lives better. |
