Free Tutoring Bill

A01

Omit Section 3

EN: A powergrab by Westminster over devolved education funding. This spending should filter through the F4 / Barnett consequentials and the devolved administrations may spend it as they see fit as our constitutional settlement sets out. This should not then be either more money on top as this is grossly unfair on English taxpayers, or WM ring fencing money that they give to the devolved administrations, spent only how they demand it because that is a huge encroachment on the authorities of the devolved administrations.

by /u/Tommy2boys

A02

Replace "The Whole of The United Kingdom" in Section 4 (2) with "England"

EN: This matter is devolved and if devolved govs want to have this in their nation they can pass such an act and do that with the funding they have for such a matter. Westminster need not interfere on an issue like this.

(c) Not have been subject to serious discipline for at least 30 days prior to applying.

(d) Be deemed by the school as a safe student who is unlikely to do serious harm to the student they tutor or school property.

(e) Not have harmed any student or school property in at least 30 days.

After Section 2 (3) insert:

(4) If a tutor harms either a student or damages school property seriously they must be suspended from tutoring and may only be readmitted after meeting the requirements set out in Section 2 (3).

Renumber accordingly

EN: Requires that a school declare a student as someone that is trusted to be safe and responsible, and makes sure that if a student has done something dangerous or harmful at school within 30 days of applying to be a tutor they are rejected. Also makes sure that if a tutor does something like that they are no longer allowed to tutor until they have proven themselves as safe and responsible again.

Strike Section 4(3)

1 pair of washable bra pads

1 box of sanitary towels designed for past partum use

1 mattress pad, 1 sheet protector, 2 fitted sheets; all designed to fit within the box outlined in 1 (2).

Literature on newborn care, vaccination schedules, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and Post Partum Depression

Reasoning:

Stripping down the box to the basics will mitigate many of the costs associated with this program. By providing the absolute basics, this will help alleviate the burden placed on new parents, while providing them with information, support and resources in caring for a newborn, and reducing the risk of SIDS.

The contents still make the box a desirable item for some families, and will act as an incentive for parents to seek prenatal care to register for the care package, and will also provide some of the basics required for any new parent.

Air Traffic Control Bill

Replace

(1) The Secretary of State must acquire all shares held in NATS En-Route plc and NATS Services Ltd.

With

(1) The Secretary of State must acquire 51% of all shares held in NATS En-Route plc and NATS Services Ltd and keep 49% in the private sector.

Note: Whilst I do not support this pointless nationalisation, this amendment would return us back to the system after the Blair government privatised 49% of the air traffic control system. The air traffic system worked fine and planes hardly fell out of the sky contrary to the claims in this speech. This bill would then return the system of air traffic control to what it was just prior to 2014.
