To ask His Majesty's Government what process they intend to follow to resolve cross-border disputes arising from the Hamburg Declaration regarding supply chain protectionism and the financing of shared grid infrastructure in the North Sea.
To ask His Majesty's Government what process they intend to follow to resolve cross-border disputes arising from the Hamburg Declaration regarding supply chain protectionism and the financing of shared grid infrastructure in the North Sea.
The Hamburg Declaration of Energy Ministers, signed at the Third North Sea Summit on 26 January 2026, together with its annexes, including the Action Plan and the Offshore Financing Framework, is non-binding and does not create rights or obligations under national or international law. It therefore cannot give rise to justiciable disputes between the parties.
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what discussions he has had with the Scottish Government on ensuring victims of crime who move between Scotland and England and Wales have access to adequate support services.

We have signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Germany and with Switzerland to pave the way for further direct rail connections to mainland Europe
As part of these agreements, we have established formal working groups with both countries, involving relevant authorities from both government and industry, to tackle the barriers to enabling direct international rail services, including technical barriers and requirements for border and security controls. These working groups include discussions on all international stations in the UK including Kent stations.
Separately, we are supporting an industry-led working group to establish the next steps required to remobilise the Kent stations on the High Speed 1 line to facilitate the aspirations of potential new entrants to serve these stations in future.
Further to the Minister’s answer, my constituents, who live along the English-Scottish border, already experience issues when it comes to accessing cross-border healthcare. I recently expressed concern that the single patient record will not go across the border. May I press the Minister to ensure that lessons are being learned, and that we have cross-border operability, when it comes to digital ID?

My hon. Friend is absolutely right: it is crucial that we learn how well some of the innovations in our health tech have lent themselves to the process of implementing digital access to services. I recommit to learning the lessons, and we are open-minded. In many cases, Scotland is ahead in its thinking and delivery in this area, and I am happy to have further conversations.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions he has had with devolved administrations on cross border portability of adult social care assessments for Armed Forces families.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions he has had with devolved administrations on cross border portability of adult social care assessments for Armed Forces families.
Whilst no specific discussions have been held between Ministers in the Department and the devolved administrations on cross border portability of social care assessments for Armed Forces families, under the Care Act 2014, local authorities in England are responsible for assessing individuals’ care and support needs and, where eligible, for meeting those needs. The Government is working to modernise the way care assessments are carried out across England, helping people get the support they need faster and more easily.
That this House notes with concern the decision by Powys Teaching Health Board to extend waiting times for Powys residents receiving treatment in English hospitals; further notes that Powys has no district general hospital and that many residents are therefore reliant on hospitals in Herefordshire, Shropshire and elsewhere in England for routine and specialist treatment; recognises reports that some patients have faced significantly longer waits for treatment despite capacity existing within the hospitals they attend; believes that healthcare should be delivered according to clinical need rather than a patient's postcode or the financial position of their local health board; also notes the principles set out in the NHS Statement of Values and Principles for Cross-Border Healthcare, which seek to ensure that patients living in border communities are not disadvantaged by administrative boundaries; expresses concern about the impact prolonged delays have on patients living with pain, reduced mobility and deteriorating health conditions; and calls on the UK Government, Welsh Government and Powys Teaching Health Board to work together to ensure fair, timely and equitable access to healthcare for patients in Powys and other border communities.

Powys has no general hospital, so my constituents are dependent on access to English hospitals for the treatment and operations they need. However, last July, Powys teaching health board made the decision to extend waiting times for Powys patients awaiting operations, with the result that many have now been waiting years, often in agonising pain. Will the Minister meet me, Powys teaching health board and the new Welsh Health Minister to ensure Powys patients get the funding and treatment they need?

I would welcome a meeting with the hon. Member. As he knows, decisions about waiting list management in Wales are matters for the Welsh Government, but I agree that patients in border communities should be able to access care as quickly and conveniently as possible.

For my constituents in the Scottish Borders, accessing NHS treatment can sometimes be more complicated than it should be. Some residents in the Scottish Borders are registered with GP practices in Northumberland, but their medical records are not always shared properly between NHS services in England and Scotland. The SNP Government refuse to allow reciprocal care, so will the Minister urgently work with the Scottish Government to ensure my constituents can be properly treated as close to home as possible?

I am aware of the concerns that the hon. Member raises. NHS organisations on both sides of the border are working together to improve access for patients. NHS England is working closely with NHS Scotland to improve the compatibility of patient records. I believe that they must do much more and I would be happy to meet him to discuss that further.
