this week on question time, david cameron was asked about the u.k. national health service . the prime minister spoke about britain's future membership in the european union and mental health care. basis. i'm not familiar with the specific cases he raises with me. if you want a job in no come only can make sure it gets raised in the into quickly. >> questions to the prime minister. [shouting] >> thank you, mr. speaker. the house will be aware of the dreadful accident that occurred yesterday afternoon in which one died and three are missing. the whole house will join me in and in our condolences to the family and friends of the big guns in our best wishes to those who are still missing or injured. i want to pay tribute to the incredibly brave actions of our emergency services who dealt with the incident with typical professionalism. the executive or carry out a full investigation to find out what led to the tragedy. the

>> mr. speaker, admitted with ministerial colleagues and others in addition to my duties specialist or their meetings today. >> michelle donovan peered >> thank you, mr. speaker. the prime minister on today's occurrence, while they have successfully integrated during refugees already including babies and children that would otherwise be frozen or starved to death? however, a serious delay by the home office despite those that have tried to introduce more into the area. i would like to prime minister to telephone or he can do. can a look into it in outline what we can do to fulfill our moral duty to become desperate people? >> clip to pay tribute to the many councils up and down the country who it done a magnificent job in integrating and taken in syrian refugees and their families, finding them homes, schools and often time

finding them jobs, too. if you look at what happened across europe in terms of the relocation and resettlement program, britain has done far better than any other country in terms to this resettlement program. we have delivered 1000 honorable friend asked what we can do. first of all i will make sure she can make the home office to talk about how we can make sure this system works well. we will continue to invest in this year in refugee camps are monopolies that the 11 alien dollars we raised in the landmark london conference and will continue to do what we can to deliver the 20,000 syrian refugees we said we would take into our country. [shouting] >> thank you, mr. speaker. i want to let you the prime minister's tribute to servers.

also at the families of the person who died and those who are missing or injured. we rely on our emergency services than we should make sure they are always there for all of us. a survey published yesterday shows that nine out of 10 junior talk to already work extra hours beyond their normal contract. the survey also showed falling morale amongst this vital group of staff. what does the prime minister think this health secretary speech of the deal and imposition of a contract will do to their morale? >> ursula come in the health secretary did not veto a deal. but we've had this for four years discussions about how important it is to have an nhs that works on a seven day basis. that may pay tribute to the fact so many in the nhs work so hard already in the weekend. but what matters is making sure

we can have a genuine seven-day nhs. what i say to junior doctors is that no junior doctor working legal hours will receive a pay cut. the contract will not impose longer hours and in fact, s. tougher safeguards to make sure reduces the hours that were. we are not seeking to save money from the new contract. nights and saturday evenings in sunday's continue to attract unsocial or payments. this is a good deal from a government putting tens of millions forward in hhs. [shouting] >> mr. speaker, this dispute at the junior doctors has been debated in this represented recess about mortality. i will read the prime minister but they say and i quote, it is not possible to ascertain the extent to which they may be present preventable. so is the prime minister and his

health secretary being rash and misleading with these figures? tree and to >> let me agree with the right honorable gentleman about something, the dispute has been played by scaremongering and inaccurate statistics. [shouting] the british medical association and the first intervention said this was a dirty% pay cut. that was completely untrue. in fact, so one true that they had to take their pay calculator off their website and they never put it back up again. not billions they're very directly the question that excess deaths. the 6000 figure before excess deaths was based on a question asked by the health secretary, the medical direct to read the nhs. now we've had time to go into these figures in more detail. i can tell the house this period that the health secretary was indeed guilty.

he was guilty of an understatement. the true figures for access that of the weekend are 11,000, not 6000. the right honorable gentleman will now withdraw this is totally unjustified. what he would stride and announced the figures? >> mr. speaker. [shouting] mr. speaker, it is worth reflect and for one moment there is no dispute with the junior doctors in scotland or in wales because the government had the sense to reach an agreement with the junior.err. he must also be aware that the majority of the public of england i run that tied at the junior doctors, not the secretary of state. the situation actually gets worse the ministers weaker. a freedom of information request

by the pdc to say and ask for the source of the health secretary statistics. civil servants and the department of health decided to, and i quote, offer up the most bland statement possible they would neither confirm nor contradict the health secretary statement. if in time to prime minister -- statement and indeed reach an honorable settlement with the newly adopt it in? [shouting] 's >> erupt that question before he heard my answer. it's a possible description of how a right-sided amateur figure being about 1000. there is absolutely no withdraw our accusation against the health secretary after he gets those figures. there's no dispute in scotland

and wales with the junior doctors. the region for that is in scotland and wales are not trying to create more of a seven-day nhs. the seven-day nhs was not only in our manifesto because i want to make sure that hard-working people can access health services at an equal rate right through the week because you don't just get bill and the weekdays, but also he reads his own part toward into their election defeat. they admit there was a very popular concept and it is. what i would say to him as you can see in england we are putting 10 billion pounds more into the nhs. this guy 10,000 more doctors. we've got 10,000 more nurses. we are treating more patients. we have a settlement to the gp contract. we have a settlement of the junior doctors contract. we are building a strong nhs for patients and that is what this is about.

[shouting] >> mr. speaker, we all want a strong and successful nhs. you don't achieve that by provoking industrial action, misrepresenting research are failing to get a grip on the cost of agents the staff in the nhs which now amounts to 4 billion pounds. indeed in the prime minister's own local nhs trust, cadiz overspent on staffing costs by 11 million pounds this year, yet it may suspend 30 million pounds on agency staff. for the chair of the oxford anti-astaire decamp and be writing another letter to itself asking on behalf of his constituents the health secretary to intervene in support of local nhs? >> i'm very proud of the nhs. and everyone who works in the period having met recently with the head of the rankin trust, i know he supports the move

towards more seven-day services here that is absolutely vital. i think i know what my mother would say. she would look across the dispatch box and they put in a proper suit, do appear tied and sing the national ant done. [shouting] tree into -- [shouting] >> mr. speaker, in if we are attacking proper advice, my grandmother would have said stand up for the principles of the health service for

everybody. [cheers and applause] because that is what she dedicated her life to in her generation. >> mr. speaker, we are three quarters of the way into this financial year. the nhs deficit is already 2.26 million pounds. 53% of nhs trust finance directors say the quality of care in their local area has worsened in this year. look for the deficit be by the end of next month? >> we will get deficits down because we are clamping down on the agencies on expensive management consultants and introducing better public [cheers and applause] the honorable gentleman has to recognize this. we said we would back the plan which means at least a billion more in the nhs although we put

10 billion more at the last election and subsequently labor has refused to back the extra money. so when you look at the nhs today, my mother's equally proud of the nhs sim. she would be pleased to know 1.9 million more people going. 1.6 million more operations, 10,700 doctors, and and i have to say, this night that i was here today, hewitt won a seven-day nhs because he knew the nhs was for patients up and down our country. [cheers and applause] 's >> is to his grave if he could hear this about the nhs. he was a man with vision who wanted a health service for the good at all. i will tell you, mr. speaker, our health services run by brilliant people, really about her of really addresses, really

fast. but i've got a question for the prime minister from one of those brilliant doctors. he sent me a question sameness. as a doctor, i know full well the stresses on the nhs and the shortcomings. we already have a seven-day emergencies service. how does increase in electric work improve safety at the weekend if he truly seven-day nhs is wanted, we need more nurses, more radiographers, all the other vital workers. will the prime minister, now today commit to publishing the department of health's analysis of the real cost of introduced in a seven-day nhs and will he be prepared to pay for it rather than picking a fight with the junior doctors who want to deliver it? >> what is not clear is whether or not neighbors support a

seven-day nhs are not. we do support a seven-day nhs and that is why we are putting in the 10 billion pounds. that is where you put in 10,000 more doctors, nurses and crucially guess, that is why we are looking up the contracts in the nhs to make sure it can work on a more seven-day basis. the truth is this. you can go to hospitals today in our country in northwest of england where they are already operating on a seven-day basis within the existing budget. this is good because the are using their equipment on a seven-day basis. they are carrying out consultation seven days a week. they carry out some operations in days a week. that is good for the hospital, good for the staff and above all good for patients. we don't just get ill in monday to friday. i want a world-class nhs. we are funding a world-class nhs to think of world-class people working in our nhs and together

we will build a seven-day nhs. [shouting] >> chris davis via >> thank you, mr. speaker. for such a large number of schools facing the prospect of closer, what could my right honorable friend due to encourage the welsh assembly to convert stays close into free schools than academy and order my constituents can benefit from improvement ratification they are cnn saving excellence closer and closer. >> obviously the issue of education is involved in web number possibility for the government, but i would urge them to focus a good education depends not only on the finance which is fair because of the way of the formula works and the decisions were taken about funding hhs in england also requires high standards and the publication of the tables of people can see how children are doing and crucially requires

structure of her friends from the pre-schools, academies introducing diversity, competition and getting organizations passionate about education to provide state education. we want all the best organizations providing the best education for children. >> mr. speaker, may begin by associating the party with the comment to the prime minister and leader of the labour party in relations to the tragedy and our thoughts about those affected. for the prime minister congratulate the government and his own colleagues who do not financial arrangements for the next phase of scottish devolution. the treasury position with 7 billion pounds of public finance got been at the beginning of this week reduced to 3 billion pounds yesterday morning to point out what she tells them agree to it or not i'm no worse off?

>> let me agree with the right honorable gentleman. this is an excellent deal for scotland, but also an excellent deal for the united kingdom. for those of us who want to keep united kingdom together, what we have demonstrated as you can have full and devolution with a powerhouse parliament, a fair physical settlement inside the united kingdom and and that is something to be celebrated. now we will move the situation with the scottish government and parliament will have to start talking about policies and decisions rather than processes. happy the negotiations went to baghdad and i'm happy laura smith responsible for so much work it out a statement saying this delivers smith and the principles in full. no more grievance, no more fussing about process. no more arguments about the arrangements. now it's time to get on and govern. [shouting]

>> we are indebted to scotland's finance security note that human field from scotland. prime minister is right that all parties will have to layer their plan with the may election. could you answer this question? is it true this time the lesser day, his party, the conservative party is planning attacks cuts for higher earners in scotland? >> you will be with davidson is the only proper opposition figure setting out the plans. if you are buried in scotland about having a one-party state and the lack of accountability, if you think the labour party lost its way, there's only one choice. i think there are opportunities to sharpen incentives. there are opportunities to attract businesses and people in the scotland.

as she does, whatever she decides she will have my full unequivocal support. [shouting] >> i believe industry council, 96% of the 1100 residents are more satisfied with my counsel services. with my great honorable friend join me in the conservative leader perry richardson to counsel a colleague and all the office of employee district council are continuing to deliver to the residence. [shouting] >> i'm happy to join my honorable friend in doing that. he does make an important point that we have to make difficult as spending decisions not only in the last five years, the

satisfaction actually when not. this proves the larger point, which is you can reduce spending levels, find efficiencies and provide better services at the same time. >> mike tichy went to someone turn due to depression but is no longer down for espn cannot think gse due to his job and could not leave his highly skilled job as a sheriff due to the threat of punitive sanctions. will the prime minister look at his case specifically, but also the wider richer people with mental health issues unable to work? >> i'm very happy to look at the individual case. the way our system should work is clear that if you are unable to work, but without good work on the sugar 12 employment on the work-related activity group and get that out. if you're unable to work, get a

higher amount of money. it's not been tested, not time limited. people who have difficulties also have the new personal independent payment system which can address some of those. a generous and compassionate country with the benefit system to port those who cannot work on making sure those who can work are encouraged to do so. >> thank you, mr. speaker. the unemployment constituency has qualified 62%. however, even more work toward full employment. that is why on march the 18th had been halted between the job fair, bring together employers to find out the many ways you can get employment or indict the prime minister and see for him

of -- [inaudible] >> i'm sure i'll be doing a lot of touring country in the weeks to come. perhaps a visit to era watch as well. we have not had much lower unemployment rate. just about 5% is one of the lowest in europe. even at that rate, a lot more to do to match the jobs created, to the people that want to work in job fairs and apprenticeships are absolutely essential. this is full employment. >> thank you, mr. speaker. the prime minister on the seventh of january, we debated the issue of women's state pension and the fact women are discriminated by the increase. the house debated the 1580 i.

for government to mitigate the effects of this. why has the government not respected the parliament? >> first of all, i argue strongly where not discriminating against women. we are making sure there is an equal page of retirement and two women have been discriminated against in the pension system in the past, the single-payer pension means many more will be retired with a full pension. as they do so, the triple lock of nine pensions will go up by wages, prices are 2.5%, whichever is highest. that is a pensioner poverty is a record low and pensioners that they can live in security and dignity in our country. >> mr. speaker, behind much of the south east and many embassies i lost the landscape regeneration alliance that brings together community groups. can i invite my right honorable

friend and the minister to this gem on our doorstep to see for themselves what it could and indeed should be? >> i'm very happy to put us for the coming months. we remember battle he fought back stitching me. i sat at the coastal command assigned with a dedicated mr. the government to help coastal communities and i will make sure officials meet with this new alliance and make sure they both got the coastal community team and what they can do to help. >> mr. speaker, for two years, they campaign against the development of a luxury breaker. they rejected the plans, but then i can ever do is called in the decision overturned the wishes of the community with disrespect for local democracy. the prime minister of vocalist and finally admit only believes

in the devolution across not the devolution of actual power in the community. [shouting] >> we have a long and system for local planning, but also being able to: session that operated all that time. if anything, our local planning system is putting more power in the hands of local people because once they've completed their local plan, it is much easier to say yes to developments within the plant had no to development outside it. i've tried to have a child suffering from acute to help difficulties css. colleagues from across the chamber are all too familiar with such visits. i welcome the prime minister's recent commitment to reform mental health division for young

people. i asked him to consider reviewing the provision of a mental state treatment and after he continues to be the champion for these vulnerable and brave children. >> i think my honorable friend for his question. he is read to children and young people's mental health is a priority for this government. we can all agree across this house this is not an area with adequate attention or adequate investment for many years. i would have a particularly the problems of psychosis, sometimes caused by drug use. i would also raise the huge problem of eating disorders where we see a rapid increase in the number of people suffering. we've gone a long way in increasing the number of talking therapies. something like 740,000 more people are accessing therapy is when the government came to office. we recognize more to be done and we are investing 1.4 billion systemwide transformation across children and nonetheless in mental health. >> richard are close.

>> thank you, mr. speaker. last week, the apg crucial new evidence was uncovered. i am utterly convinced over 2000 constituents in half a billion people in the u.k. has scottish power. given this a scandal of huge proportions, with the prime minister agree to meet with me to discuss how we can ensure that these ordinary hard-working people receive cash backs promised? >> i'm glad the honorable gentleman has raised this because it's been raised on previous occasions by abbott, and another cross party group has sent some useful work. my understanding is that any alleged wrongdoing should be fully investigated. they can impose fines if they find companies have reached license and i'm happy to arrange for a meeting between him and other members of the group with the relevant ministers in the department of energy climate change to get this fixed.

does my right honorable friend agree with me that with a nato summit with that said of the national security threat, we are right and this is our 2% of gdp towards defense? are we shocked the failure the party opposite to do likewise? >> i think my honorable friend makes an important point, which we do face an insecure and unstable world with what putin has done in the ukraine, particularly what we see in syria. 2% spending on defense and making sure we review is the right answer. they have got an answer. they are not going to spend 2%. they are not to renew submarines, but they come up with a really brilliant cancer. they are bringing back as their spokesman and spin doctor, damien arrived.

this is the leader's opposition. we can win in 2020 but only for spend the next five years building a movement in putting forward the new politics. honest, kinder and more kerry and. six months old, and damon mcbride is back. [shouting] >> the colleagues are calling for more. there will be more. >> thank you, mr. speaker. last week i visited palestine along with several honorable friend where we visited the home

and family who lived in the old city of east jerusalem since 1953. however, settlers are now trying to force 60 years under our many other cases. does the prime minister agree with me that illegal settlements and construction are a roadblock that handle peaceful negotiations and what is this doing to help the injured palestinian bias and land? >> to question the general bull raises import. i am well-known as being rendered is what i have to say the first time i visited and had a proper tour around that wonderful city and saw what is happening with the settlement of these servers on, it is genuinely shocking. but the government has consistently done saying we are

supporters of israel, but we do not support illegal settlements. we do not support what is happening in east jerusalem and it's very important the capital city has maintained the way it was in the past. >> thank you, mr. speaker. one of my constituents is fighting to defend drawback to the u.k. after being taken to the poland by the mother illegally at the hague treaty. for the prime minister outlined that interventions the government can make to du and polish authority with regard to the information. the object of children >> my honorable friend is right to raise a case like this. sadly there are far too many in our country. the standard answer is the return decision and governments

can't interfere in the processes of another justice system. we do have a cot at the ministry of justice. they been in comp didn't touch processing paperwork. they are chasing the counterparts in poland and i will make sure the foreign secretary is aware of this case and does everything he can to help her and help her constituents. >> oil and gas has 300 billion pounds treasury. the scotch government treats oil and gas are calling for reduction to support the industry in its hour of need. yet in that of the so-called rock shelters of the u.k., what we see are the sloppy shoulders of the prime minister repeatedly dodging. will he commit the fact oil and gas industry? >> what i was say to the honorable gentleman is first of all the budget last year we reduce the burden of gas and oil

and taxpayers something we were able to do because of the broad shoulders of the u.k. that is just determined what has happened since that time. oil and gas revenues are down 94%. if there were broad shoulders of the united kingdom government that this was it ignorantly fiscally independent goblins, there'd be a massive black hole in your budget. you would be cutting welfare. you would be cutting the name, putting up taxes to my facing a financial catastrophe. [shouting] >> thank you, mr. speaker. every week to women are killed in england and wales by current or former partners. the perpetrator is the problem. the question is not why doesn't she leave, but why doesn't she stop. the commissioner is piloting the

program which aims to change behavior of offenders. in advance of its new strategy to tackle violence against women and girls, with the prime minister join me in congratulating and tackling domestic projects? >> my honorable friend is absolutely right to resist. the crime of domestic violence we've got better tackling but there's still so much more to do. katie boren who i know does an excellent job is a good example of the sort of thing crime commissioners with a higher profile and authorities can give israel the time. i would urge others to do exactly that. we need to make sure we are policing and is properly and change the culture. police and crime commissioners can help lead the way. >> mr. speaker, the prime minister knows for a fresh start agreement in november to help

legacy cases. while the prime minister considered a kind of hinted by the secretary of state to help the police service of northern ireland face increasing pressures and runtime policing and will he take the opportunity to reaffirm that there'll be no rebranding of the past in northern ireland to legitimize terrorism or to promote the pernicious narrative bikini equivalent security forces on terrorism? >> what i was dead is a fresh start agreement with the good agreement to an important part is dealing with legacy cases and make sure they were dealt with more quickly. to me it's always been about trying to heal the hurt that the legacy cases rather than trying to write narratives. i look at what he says about resources because we need to make sure the policing of arthur nylund continues to be properly resourced because they still face a terrorist threat today. >> the united kingdom and they says the referendum published by

the european commission for democracy through law. defends equality of opportunity must be guaranteed for supporters and opponents of the proposal being voted on and equality must be ensured in terms of public subsidies and other forms of backing. yesterday, jeremy hayward sent a letter around the department preventing ministers from having tax is two briefings and the prime minister check that the latter with the guidelines? >> i'm very happy with the letter sent out for this reason, that the government has a position on this issue. the government's position is we will be better off in a reformed european union. ministers are able to depart from the position and campaign in a personal capacity. that is a very important statement. it is right in terms of how we go about it, but it does not

mean the government is neutral. the government has a policy for which people can depart. for the funding of the referendum campaign, we now have clear laws in place and rules in place in the electoral commission to make sure both campaigns are funded properly. i think that is good for our hates america's gifted innovation, privacy.

locate the rule of law, public safety, and we just have to talk about it or understand, how do we optimize both of these things we care about? privacy and safety, how do we do that you go it is not easy. >> monday, the general counsel for the fbi agent association willhris calibrates discuss the conflict between fbi and apple over whether apple should help the fbi get into the phone of one of the suspected san bernardino terrorists. he will talk about what this case could need for communication and law enforcement committed to do you're joined by cyber security reporter dents and balls. >> the tool is a device that was intention be devised to be impenetrable. have -- we, we believe it threatens the way that our search and seizure laws were designed to operate. where reasonable searches can obtain access to evidence.

we view it as a real threat. >> apple is concerned about the crisis of information on the device. thate very much worried building a tool that allows you to break security is a privacy harm, one that will bite apple users around the world. announcer: watch the communicators on monday night on c-span2. the presidential race moves forward with super tuesday. all eyes are on 12 states as a republican and democratic candidates add to their delegate count. then i is one of the states. donald trump was there this weekend for a rally. he received the endorsement of jeff sessions there.
