That this House calls upon the Government to recognise the need for additional resources to be devoted to the specialist care of the increasing number of Alzheimer's patients and their families, especially in the provision of more day care hospitals and respite care; and urges that in these cases, when such patients are to be discharged to non-specialist private nursing homes from long-stay institutions, they retain their right to receive all benefits previously accorded to them and are not treated, as in some cases recently, as receiving contracted-out hospital care and not entitled to income support.

That this House calls for an immediate ban on the production of all ozone-depleting chemicals, including CFCs, halons, methyl chloroform, carbon tetrachloride and HCFCs, in the light of recent European and NASA research which has shown that there is enough chlorine pollution in the upper atmosphere of the Northern Hemisphere to destroy one per cent. of ozone each day during the coming months, letting in a huge increase in ultraviolet light which will pose a serious threat to human and ecological health; supports the use of safe alternatives to ozone-destroying chemicals; for those few applications where such alternatives do not currently exist, and lives would be put at risk if their use was stopped, believes that ozone-destroying chemicals should be supplied from existing stocks; calls for guarantees for the jobs of those workers currently involved in ozone-destroying chemical production; and urges Government Ministers attending the EC Ministers meeting on 21st-22nd February in Estoril, Portugal, to demand that the meeting agree a full and immediate ban on CFCs, HCFCs and all other chlorine and bromine compounds which are destroying the ozone layer.

That this House calls on the Secretary of State for the Home Department to take the necessary steps to ensure that all television programmes, including party political broadcasts, on all channels, which report on, or comment on, political matters are signed and subtitled, so that the two and a half million people who are deaf or hard of hearing are put on par with the general hearing public in the run up to the general election.

That this House notes that in his anxiety to attack the SNP economic programme the Right honourable Member for Monklands East has claimed that the write off of local government housing debt by central government would result in an immediate equivalent increase in public sector borrowing; questions whether the shadow Chancellor seriously believes that a simple transfer of debt within the public sector affects the public sector borrowing requirement; speculates on whether the write off of debt before the privatisation of water would have proceeded if the public sector borrowing requirement had been affected; and takes note of the credibility of a shadow Chancellor who may or may not understand the concept of the public sector borrowing requirement.

That this House welcomes the Daily Telegraph's recognition on 3rd February that 'Scotland has been governed by a team of ministers whom the world - including every Scot - knows would not qualify for jobs as bottle washers', a fact Scots have been only too well aware of during the last 13 years; looks forward to the imminent demise of the remaining rump of Scottish Tories at the coming general election; and welcomes the fact that the growing support of the Scottish people for independence will ensure that Tory misrule is replaced with economic and social prosperity.

That this House acknowledges the important contribution that universities have made to the country's economic and social well-being; recognises the productivity and efficiency gains that they have achieved as numbers have risen by 8.7 per cent. in 1991; is conscious that Britain's system of higher education is one of the finest in the world and is rightly held in great esteem; recognises that pay review bodies which cover such groups as doctors, dentists and school teachers do, in the view of Her Majesty's Government, enhance professionalism and the raising of morale; and therefore calls upon Her Majesty's Government to establish a pay review body for university academic and related staffs.

That this House notes that substantial differences exist between the Building Regulations England and Wales, now laid before Parliament, and the recently revised Scottish Building Standards, particularly in retention of three and four hour fire resistances in Scotland which are deleted in England and Wales, trade-off of fire resistance periods for sprinkler installation in England and Wales not currently implemented in Scotland, and deletion of requirements for non-combustibility in England and Wales which are retained in Scotland; believes that the new departures in the England and Wales regulations may reduce fire safety; and urges that any attempt to require Scottish standards to follow the England and Wales regulations, as has been indicated by Ministers, might proceed only after the new departures have proved themselves in practices to Scottish satisfaction.
