motion text	That this House welcomes the third annual St Andrew's Day Torchlight Parade organised by the West End Festival in Glasgow; notes that the parade will take place on 30 November 2018, leaving from the Botanic Gardens and finishing at the Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery; understands that the proceeds from the sale of torches will be donated to Spirit Aid, the humanitarian relief organisation founded in 2001 that is dedicated to alleviating the suffering of children and young people whose lives have been devastated by war, poverty, lack of opportunity or humanitarian crisis, which has operations running across Scotland, Palestine, Afghanistan and Malawi; acknowledges the huge success of the parade and the opportunity for members of the local community to come together, with special invitations being extended to students and residents from Greece, Russia and Ukraine, who also have St Andrew as their patron saint; and commends the dedication of the team at the West End Festival in organising this annual event, and wishes them continued success.

motion text	<p>That this House notes with great concern the Secretary of State for Justice's statement that, as part of the Government's proposed cuts to access to legal aid, `No win, no fee is a perfectly suitable way of proceeding in clinical negligence cases', Official Report, 15 November 2010,column 667; recognises that these will include a wide range of extremely serious cases some of which will involve children who have suffered brain damage as a result of clinical negligence; believes the negative impact this will have on vulnerable families and individuals will make them less inclined to seek legal redress; further recognises that access to justice irrespective of financial circumstance is a vital component of any democratic system; and therefore calls on the Government to rethink these reforms and consult on a fairer option which will allow all citizens full access to justice and legal representation in such difficult situations.</p>

motion text	That this House notes with concern the proposed timing of the reversion of value added tax to the 17.5 per cent. rate on 31 December 2009 which will disrupt crucial Christmas trading, strain staff during that period and impose a cost in excess of £90 million when working capital is under strain; further notes this imposes a de facto alcohol duty increase; further notes trade credit support will be withdrawn the same day; and therefore supports The Grocer's campaign for a four-week reprieve on the value added tax increase to protect business during a critical trading period.

motion text	That this House congratulates Scotash for achieving its second Queen's Award for Enterprise (Sustainable Development) in three years; notes that Scotash produces a range of cements and construction materials from fly ash produced by Longannet and Cockenzie coal fired power stations; welcomes the significant contribution the company makes to the environment, as the process uses much less energy than cement making, reduces the volume of ash for landfill and reduces the volume of quarried material; further notes the high quality of Scotash products; and further notes that the success of Scotash is evidence that where there's ash there's brass.

motion text	That this House supports young people's call for an end to negative representations of youth; applauds the work of organisations such as the British Youth Council and online charity YouthNet that empower young people to speak out on issues that they say affect them; acknowledges that only a small minority of young people behave in an anti-social manner; believes that the media do not give young people enough recognition for the positive things they do; and urges hon. Members to ensure that young people's views are represented in public debate by creating opportunities for their input such as holding youth surgeries and visiting schools, colleges and universities.

motion text	That this House believes that politics is all about priorities and considers a new tax net band at 50 per cent. should be introduced for those earning in excess of ú100,000 to raise an additional ú4.8 billion for public expenditure; further considers that if the UK's annual contribution to NATO was reduced to be the same as the average percentage (i.e. 0.7 per cent.) of monies spent on defence by the Western European NATO nations, this would save another ú7.3 billion, totalling ú12.1 billion; thus advocates that by investing ú3 billion of this, it could end all fuel poverty, including the most vulnerable 1.4 million households, ú1.9 billion would allow the doubling of the winter fuel allowance for pensioners, ú2 billion would pay for the construction cost of six medium sized district general hospitals of 800 beds each, and their operational costs, ú600 million would cover costs for linking basic state pensions to earnings increases, at 2004-05 prices, ú1.35 billion a year would pay for all present and proposed tuition fees for higher education, ú450 million a year would allow all prescription charges to be scrapped, ú2 billion could lift some 200,000 children out of poverty by a ú3 a week increase in child benefit and ú800 million invested in wave energy power generation, a predictable renewable source, would be significant contribution to the UK's climate change and emission reduction strategy; considers that this expenditure is a preferable way to make public investment; and calls upon the relevant ministers to adopt these policies.

motion text	That this House, appalled by the brutality that is being shown by all the parties in the civil war now taking place in the former Yugoslavia and the loss of life that is taking place, conscious of the long history of foreign occupation of these territories by Turkey, the Austro-Hungarian empire and of the Nazi atrocities during the Second World War, all of which have left a legacy of great bitterness, recalling that there are deep-seated religious as well as ethnic factors in this conflict which cannot be resolved other than by a return to peace and the restoration of confidence by all parties, determined to see the United Nations continue to play a constructive role in peace-making and humanitarian relief, and believing that these efforts, which are essential if further bloodshed is to be avoided, would end at once if foreign military intervention were to take place, therefore calls upon the international community to enforce the arms embargo on all parties to the conflict and to abstain from air-strikes and the commitment of ground troops to the war, to intensify humanitarian aid to all sides on the large scale required to save life and provide essential food and medical supplies and to continue to make full use of the good offices of the United Nations to seek, by direct negotiations, a lasting and just peace in the area.
