United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 12 December 2012
That this House expresses support for the findings of the report The Forgotten Millions: reforming social care services for people living with neurological conditions recently published by the health and social care charity, Sue Ryder; further expresses concern that only 10 per cent of the local authorities who responded to the charity's survey have an agreed commissioning strategy for people with neurological conditions, that only five per cent of responding local authorities know how many individuals with any neurological condition they care for and that only six per cent of local authorities categorise all specific neurological conditions; and supports the recommendations made by the charity that in order for the problems highlighted by the report to be addressed there is a need for strong leadership at a national and local level, that robust data collection must take place, that the postcode lottery of service provision must end and that the nationally-recognised standards of care and support for people with neurological conditons must be introduced.

United Kingdom · UK Parliament · 14 December 2010
That this House condemns the excessive remuneration packages that have been paid to senior Enterprise Inns personnel when many Enterprise pubs are closing, some temporarily, some permanently and each one representing the failure of a small business often with devastating results for tenants; believes that these increased earnings are excessive and insensitive especially given that Enterprise Inns have reported a five per cent. decline in net income per pub since the last financial year; notes that these payments come in the same year that saw Enterprise fined just 300,000 for the death of a tenant as a result of the negligent health and safety standards of Enterprise Inns; further believes that a 51 per cent. rise in earnings for Enterprise Inns Chief Executive from 811,000 to 1,223,000 including a performance-related bonus of 558,000, is unjustified considering the company's profits are down by over 200 million from the previous financial year and that it has estimated debts of around 3.5 billion, which means large amounts of money taken from community pubs to service this debt which is a threat to the survival of many pubs; sees this as another example of Enterprise Inns management putting their own greed before the needs of their tenants and the pubs they own; further believes that the concentration of thousands of pubs in the hands of distant and hugely indebted property companies is a threat to the future of pubs; and calls upon the Government to adhere to the timetable for reform including retaining the option of a referral to the Competition Commission in June 2011.
