No money for policing development. 52 trade unionists just this year alone. Will the Government Support policing and investigations . The government is aware of the situation in colombia and venezuela, the top donors do not wait. I will come back to him. It is very important, in the gallery today. Number one. Two years to the day since chemical weapons on the streets of salisbury. And they focus firmly on the future. They pay tribute to the people of salisbury. As the government prepares the nation for the worst of coronavirus, now is the time where they pull together. A robust plan in place to cover any significant cash flow losses of businesses so employees and their mortgages, rent and benefits will still be paid . Will the treasury consider delaying the collection, does the Prime Minister agree that come what as we saw during the devastating floods in gloucester, britain will find the strength. To pull through. Entirely sponsoring the situation. To maintain Economic Confidence and our action plan points to mitigation. On a case by case basis. The whole house will join me in congratulating the partner on the news they are expecting. I wish you people of salisbury well. I visited it many times. The safety and security is paramount for all of us. I pay tribute to the medical staff and Public Servants here and overseas, the vital work to combat the spread of coronavirus. The parttime Prime Minister finally finally published a section the government takes to tackle the outbreak of the disease. And the National Health service, occupancy levels at 94 . And hundreds of our most Vulnerable People have been treated on trolleys and core doors. What additional funding will our overstretched and underfunded and i just begin to deal with this crisis . As the right honorable gentleman knows the government put record funding into the nhs and pledge that we give them everything they need to cope with the crisis. Might be the for the advantage to update the house on where we are with the coronavirus and as the plan made clear we are not at the point where we are asking large numbers of people to self isolate. That may come if they have the symptoms of coronavirus and if they stayathome the house will understand they are helping to protect all of us by slowing the spread of the virus and that is the best scientific evidence. If they stayathome and if we self isolate, they lose out financially. The secretary will bring forward as part of the emergency coronavirus legislation allows the payment of statutory sick pay instead of four days under the current ruling and that is the right way forward, nobody should be penalized for doing the right thing. I think the Prime Minister for that but i want to ask more questions on this subject. Police forces have become so overstretched by coronavirus that 999 response times, even investigations will have to be halted as a result of this. Mister speaker, we are not at that stage but our Police Forces are well able to cope with all types of eventualities. They have longstanding arrangements to prepare them such pressures. Under this government there are 2 million workers on lope, many in the care sector who were not eligible for statutory sick pay at the present time. The primary strap statement is not clear whether it covers them are not in those on Social Security could get sanctions if they miss appointments and they and their families will face hardship. When the premise to brings for the emergency legislation will be guarantee workers rights on day one will apply on statutory sick pay will apply to all claimants and those people that are not eligible, with health and hardship. The right honorable gentleman raising an important point, we are very much aware of the issue on 0 hours contract. Some of them will be entitled to statutory sick pay. Others will be entitled to work through the existing system like universal credit. We are urgently looking at the application process with the advice on isolation, that all members came together on the floor of the house to deal with this crisis and it would be Common Ground that we want to do everything we can to avoid penalizing those who are doing the right thing. The Prime Minister has not been clear about this. If you are on universal credit, you are in a 5 week wait before you get benefits. Will he be absolutely clear that nobody, nobody will have to choose between health and hardship. It is a matter of Public Health concern for everybody. Our parttime Prime Minister failed to turn up on monday, failed to answer a question about the breach of the ministerial code. In his own forward the Prime Minister wrote there must be no bullying and no harassment, will he commit to an independent investigation into the home secretarys conduct led by next her lawyer when its findings will be made public. There should be an investigation into any allegations and that is what the Cabinet Office is doing and i remind him since he mentioned the home secretary, keeping this country by putting he believes in stopping the early release, bringing in a system to tackle our migration crisis with an australian style base system and he would scrap stop and search. Getting rid of Security Services and wouldnt tackle the immigration system. Released the findings of investigation into home secretarys behavior. A government cannot be judge and jury, there has to be an independent element of the investigation. Overnight, further allegations have emerged that the home secretary repeatedly harassed and humiliated a public secretary while she ran the department for international development. If this is true, this suggests shocking and done except double pattern of behavior across three Government Department with hardearned taxpayers. Was the Prime Minister aware of these allegations, why did he appoint her . The home secretary did and outstanding job and it is right that they should be investigated by the Cabinet Office and i take no lessons about bullying where female mps were bullied so badly they left the party and where the shadow chancellor has not apologized for a member of our party to be lynched. The Prime Minister said if there are allegations, is he unaware of the allegations made over the last two days . Is he aware of the resignations of the permanent secretary because of his treatment by the home secretary. We have a parttime Prime Minister who rarely turns up but is determined to cover up for boules in his government. There cant be one rule for workers across the country and another one for him and his minister. When his home secretary has been accused of repeated bullying and harassment leading to hardworking staff attempting suicide by overdose he gave her his full support. How can the people of this country a Prime Minister who cant be bothered to turn up and when he does has no shame in defending bullying in his own government . That is the question, a fulltime near marxist who has failed to stamp out bullying in his own party and im proud of the record over the last 82 days, we have taken back control and got brexit done. You put more money into peoples pockets, increased the living wage, guaranteed more funding for schools by increasing minimum funding for every pupil, restored to set a record boost for our nhs and there will be a free one for everybody who attends and broadband to say nothing of where we are, that is not last 82 days, we are getting on with delivering the peoples priorities. My constituents care about Climate Change. Will my right honorable friend agree yesterdays news the Carbon Emissions have been reduced by a third over the last ten years is an important conservative achievement and to continue this progress . I think my honorable friend. The first cabinet video on Climate Change in recognition of this governments revolutionary commitment to cut to net 0 by 2051. In salisbury, and other places in the coronavirus we stand together. Coronavirus is causing genuine concern. 80 of the population are at risk. All of us must provide practical leadership. The Scottish Government and the westminster government have been working closely to put plans in place. The rest the governor the bank of england suggested a financial bridge may be available for volatility. A financial bridge for markets can the Prime Minister tell is will there be a financial bridge for all workers and those that rely on benefits that should not rest the sanctions of the cabinet appointment. The excellent cooperation the administrations have given in preparing the battle plan and recapitulate my answer to the right honorable gentleman, take every step we can to ensure that businesses are protected, the economy remains strong and no one whether employed or selfemployed is penalized for doing the right thing. I think the Prime Minister for the answer and my part in our government working constructively together. People are worried about their health. Millions of workers worry about the concept of job securities. And with specific guarantees, certainly we will Work Together pushing for legislation, the clarification all workers will be fully protected and they will be up to the real living wage. And legislation to guarantee the staff isolates, and their businesses. That is the leadership that is required and i asked the Prime Minister to commit himself with working constructively with all of us to that end. I thank the right honorable gentleman for the spirit he raises the question. He will have seen from my earlier answer what we are doing is advancing the day by which you are eligible for statutory payer from the fourth day to the first day. That is the right thing and i repeat we will support and make sure we keep the economy, no one will be penalized for doing the right thing and im sure the chancellor will engage you in further conversation about the detail of how to do that. Tomorrow cornish men around the world will be celebrating and the patron saint of tin mining but mining is not just something assigned to cornish history. Deposits of lithium have been identified which provide the opportunity of leveling up. Economy and providing the uk with a domestic supply of a critical mineral. With a Prime Minister commit the government to make the most of this opportunity and wish all cornish men and women a happy day . This country leads the world in battery technology, the call is extensive resources of lithium and he is a passionate champion, and mister speaker thank you, mister speaker. Last week, historic judgment against either expansion from the government broke the law by ignoring the paris climate agreement and breaching its own sustainable dhillon duty to future generations. Will the Prime Minister tell the house precisely how many of the governments other National Policy statements have been assessed against the paris climate agreement and will he commit to reviewing it if necessary revising all of those which have not . She can take it that we will ensure we abide by the judgments and make sure we take account of the Paris Convention on Climate Change but i dont believe one second that that will be an impediment to infrastructure revolution across this country. Communities like mine are grateful. Will my right honorable friend reaffirm that they are committing a tougher sentencing for the likes of my constituency . That is why the home secretary is working to recruit 20,000 Police Officers and set out plans to build more prisons and keep sexual offenders in prison for longer and im delighted for the lobbying and receiving another 366 Police Officers. I note that in the interest of Public Safety there are emergency measures to rush free legislation to make sure those convicted of terrorist offenses serve sentences given the conviction rate at a substantial rate of reoffending for those affected with sexual offenses will minister commit to wider sentencing so hes rest assured sex offenders pose a threat to women and children are serving their full sentences to assure the rehabilitation . I congratulate the honorable lady, this has been a bombshell to some of her colleagues but she is entirely right and that is what we are doing in my earlier answers. I asked my right honorable friend if he commits to making sure we benefit from the government ambition to unite across this fantastic country . I can indeed and that is why we are doing that at the start of it during the beating among many other beneficiaries to bring to the people. We will repair the trust and confidence. A registered social landlord has 30,000 homes in the north and northeast. This shows that the universal credit ensures that many families amass huge areas before receiving anything. 72 of tenants are insignificant to half of them are technically destitute. The mantra is true only if there are jobs that are fulltime, permanent and decently appeared. When will the Prime Minister stop the deliberate policy of inflicting impoverishment and destitution in the northeast . Universal credit is available from day one and i stick firmly to my believe the best fruit out of poverty is not what we have achieved is record low unemployment and record gains and wages are rising. Wages are rising as well. Last thursday at the dead of night the Prime Minister made a secret visit, no major entourage. He listened to patients and left at 3 30 a. M. One patient said i thought storage was a bit of adobe below. And caring to all other patients. What did you learn . I learned what a wonderful start we had in the nhs but im delighted to say the foundation will repeat funding for a full redevelopment in addition to the 46 million we are putting into urgent care. This is the party of the nhs and the peoples priorities across the country. For the purpose of clarity, is the office inquiring allegations to the ministerial code establishing conduct fell below the standard expected of the government minister in any way or on any occasion, that she would be removed from office . I return to the point i made earlier that the home secretary is doing an outstanding job delivering change, putting police on the street, cutting crime and delivering a new immigration system and i am sticking by her. It is clear it is a vital local service. Does the Prime Minister agree with me that mediumsized hospitals are essential to the future delivery of care in our nhs . My right honorable friend has told me it is certainly staying open. Resignation of an experienced Civil Servant stacking of government aid, with this government it seems allegations of bullying or just getting incompetent get you promoted whereas stacking up to it you lose your job. What does this say about this Prime Minister . I loathe bullying but i wont take any lessons from a party, from a party that has presided over systematic bullying and discrimination against those who stick up for the Jewish Community and we are yet to hear proper apology from the labor leadership for what they have done. The taliban reviewed their attacks in afghanistan and the us has undertaken airstrikes undermining the fragile peace deal with the release of thousands of prisoners and continued export of extremism. Does my right honorable friend share my concern that no peace deal and give me his assurances we will stand shoulder to shoulder with afghan women who have lost their lives to fight for dignity under taliban rule . We stand shoulder to shoulder, she is right in what she says about women in afghanistan. One of the great achievement of this country despite all the sacrifices that we experienced, millions of women in afghanistan were helped by the intervention of this country and we can be proud of what we did. We are increasingly concerned about coronavirus but 650 of us come from every part of the uk and operating close proximity and meet people, we then returned to a constituency becoming the vectors we are trying to shut down. What plans of the Prime Minister have 2 Conference Call electronic 14 to make sure we dont become part of this problem . She is raising an important point. The chief medical officer and chief scientific advisor with my honorable friend, saying a little more in the next couple days about what we are going to do to delay the advance of coronavirus, and data containment stage and hearing a lot more detail about what we propose my constituent tom shannon tragically died in july of 2018. This was an incident that was preventable and avoidable. It came just we 5 weeks after tom hughes fills his death in similar circumstances. Nothing had been done to make the site safe. Independent surveyors report has pointed out safety deficiencies. Toms parents, will my right honorable friend use all his influence for spanish facilities for criminal prosecution that will seek justice to tom and send a clear message to other accommodation owners to prevent similar tragedies occurring in the future. I think my right honorable friend for raising what sounds like an appalling case and i can certainly say and im sure the house will join with me the deepest sympathies to toms family and friends and get justice for tom. Im happy to ask the Foreign Office to begin talks with spanish counterparts. Last month, a young man from my const
