Written Answers
Nuclear Reactors: Thorium
Asked by: Peter Lamb (Labour - Crawley)
Thursday 22nd May 2025

Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:

To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of developing thorium-based molten salt reactors in the UK.

Answered by Michael Shanks - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero)

Nuclear is a key part of the government's national mission to be a clean energy superpower. The government believes that Advanced Nuclear Technologies (ANTs) could play an important role in helping the UK achieve energy security and clean power while securing thousands of good, skilled jobs.

DESNZ is aware of and monitors the progress of a wide range of advanced reactors in design development by companies around the world, including Thorium Molten Salt reactors.

Meta: Animal Welfare
Asked by: Peter Lamb (Labour - Crawley)
Thursday 22nd May 2025

Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, if he will have discussions with Meta on removing monkey abuse content from its platforms.

Answered by Feryal Clark - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Department for Science, Innovation and Technology)

Government ministers and officials regularly discuss online safety matters with stakeholders including online platforms such as Meta.

Under the Online Safety Act’s ‘illegal content duties’, social media platforms including Meta have duties to implement measures to tackle animal abuse content and remove it from their services. Ofcom is the UK’s independent regulator for online safety responsible for regulating services and taking enforcement action as appropriate. It has published recommendations for how providers should fulfil their illegal content duties in codes of practice and documentation. These include specific provisions about animal abuse content. These duties took effect on 17 March.

Thursday 22nd May 2025

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether her Department holds information on the daily ticket sales from stations on Southern duty railway lines to London terminals.

Answered by Simon Lightwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

The Department does not hold this information. The Rail Delivery Group and individual TOCs hold the data.

Women: Employment
Asked by: Peter Lamb (Labour - Crawley)
Wednesday 4th June 2025

Question

To ask the Minister for Women and Equalities, what plans the Government has for introducing a women’s workplace health strategy.

Answered by Seema Malhotra - Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Education) (Equalities)

This Government is committed to prioritising women’s health as we build an NHS fit for the future. Our focus is on turning the commitments in the Women's Health Strategy into tangible action, such as providing emergency hormonal contraception free of charge at pharmacies on the NHS from October 2025; taking urgent action to tackle gynaecology waiting lists through the Elective Reform Plan; and setting out how we will eliminate cervical cancer by 2040 through the new cervical cancer plan.

More widely, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has appointed a Menopause Employment Ambassador who will work closely with employers across the country to improve workplace support for women experiencing menopause.

The Office for Equality and Opportunity are taking the first steps towards legally requiring large employers to publish action plans alongside their gender pay gap figures; detailing the steps they are taking to narrow their gap and support employees during the menopause.

Select Committee Inquiry
3 Jun 2025
Propriety, ethics and the wider standards landscape in the UK
Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 26 Aug 2025)


The Government has a manifesto commitment to “restore confidence in government and ensure ministers are held to the highest standards".

Trust in government and the political system more widely is essential to the proper functioning and prosperity of a democratic state. Concerns with ethical standards are not new, however controversy surrounding the propriety of conduct of those in public life was a particularly prominent part of political life during the last parliament. This has raised questions as to whether the current system of ethical standards regulation is sufficient or even fit for purpose.

Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry.

12 Jun 2025
Ministerial Statements and the Ministerial Code
Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee (Select)

Submit Evidence (by 11 Jul 2025)

We will ask whether those requirements are observed with sufficient rigour by Ministers. Additionally, we will consider the appropriate balance in deciding between a written or oral statement.

Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry.
