That this House recalls the honourable Member for Pendle's Adjournment Debate on 12th January on the campaign to re-open the Colne to Skipton railway, which was closed in the 1970s; further recalls him telling the House that the Liberal Democrat Leader of Pendle Council, Alan Davies, last year described re-instatement as a pipe dream, while his colleague, Councillor Tony Greaves, said the proposal was a non-starter; notes with quiet satisfaction that a motion to be moved at Pendle Council on 31st March by Councillor David Whipp on behalf of the Liberal Democrats now calls for the re-instatement of the line after years spent ridiculing and scoffing at those working to bring back the railway; and pays tribute to the persuasive powers of Andy Shackleton, David Magnall, David Burton, Roy St Pierre and everyone associated with the Skipton East Lancashire Rail Action Partnership for their role in changing Liberal Democrat policy.

That this House notes the recent Fellowes poll on identity theft which found that 81 per cent. of the British public are concerned about becoming a victim of identity theft; calls upon the Government to combat identity theft by issuing clear guidelines to individuals and businesses, detailing the most effective ways to destroy information containing personal details; and believes that education is an effective way for the public to learn more about identity theft so people will destroy personal information and in turn will begin to make identity theft more difficult for criminals.

That this House congratulates Professor Kevin Warwick of Reading University on the success of the Cybernetics course which, at a time of falling applications for science subjects nationally and the closure of science departments, has seen a growth in applicants so that there are three hundred applications for one hundred places on the Cybernetics course despite the application grades having risen from Cs and Ds ten years ago to Bs now; welcomes the feed-through to the computer science and electronic engineering courses at the university which have also experienced increases of 11 per cent. and 16 per cent. respectively in the face of continued national drops in applications of between 10 and 25 per cent. in these subject areas; notes that every student on the four year course will leave having built a robot that will be able to move on command; and calls upon other scientists to learn from Professor Warwick how to teach subjects in a way that makes the subject interesting and relevant so that more students will want to develop a career in science.
