Off-patent Drugs Bill, 6 November 2015, Dr Rupa Huq, column 1292
Dr Rupa Huq (Ealing Central and Acton) (Lab): My hon. Friend talked
about cost. Does he agree with my constituent, Elena, of west
Ealing, who wrote to me on this subject to say that it would help MS
sufferers in particular and that “it is crucial that affordable
treatments are used to their full potential particularly at a time when
NHS resources are stretched. The Bill will tackle this issue head on
and stand to benefit hundreds of thousands of people in Ealing and
beyond.”?

Psychoactive Substances Bill [HL], 19 October 2015, Andrew
Stevenson, column 735
When I raised this matter on my Facebook page yesterday asking for
the views of young people in my constituency, one constituent said
that some legal highs specifically say on the packaging that they are
not fit for human consumption. Can my right hon. Friend confirm
that such a statement will not allow the producers of these drugs
simply to bypass the new law?

Childcare Bill [HL], 8 December 2015, Christian Matheson
If the Committee will allow me, I will quote a constituent, and I may
write to the Minister in greater depth about this particular case,
because it is quite detailed. There is consternation—or concern

Assisted Dying Bill [HL], 18 July 2014, Lord Vinson, column 893
However, like other noble Lords, I have received many heartfelt
letters from those who are against these measures. The common
theme is that we must not introduce the Bill because the vulnerable
might—I repeat, might—suffer.

Modern Slavery Bill, 10 December 2014, Baroness Mobarik, column
1904
Both the Ethical Trading Initiative and the British Retail Consortium
have written to me in support of the amendment. Their members
include global companies with thousands of suppliers—familiar high-
street brands such as Asda, Debenhams and Marks & Spencer—so
their views on this issue should carry significant weight.

Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Bill [HL], 20 July 2015,
Lord Campbell-Savours, column 912
I have spoken twice on this matter in the past month. On the first
occasion I read to the House a letter from a Mr Bill Bewley in
Keswick, the chairman of Keswick Community Housing Trust,
expressing anger and concern on behalf of the trust in Keswick,
which comprises an ecumenical gathering of people
