To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, whether he has had recent discussions with the Northern Ireland Minister of Justice on the right to take industrial action for prison officers in Northern Ireland.

Terms and conditions for prison officers are set out in letters of appointment, the Northern Ireland Prison Service (NIPS) Professional Code of Ethics and Values and the NIPS Professional Code of Conduct, the Northern Ireland Civil Service Handbook and relevant Prison Service notices and circulars.
That this House supports members of the Public and Commercial Services union employed across the Victoria and Albert Museum who are taking strike action for improvements to pay, health and safety, and meaningful trade union engagement; recognises that trade unions have been negotiating the 2026-27 pay award since February, but that no acceptable agreement has been reached; calls on the V&A to become an accredited London Living Wage employer to maintain London Living Wage protection for the lowest paid staff and extend it to outsourced workers, to meet the union’s modest pay demand of 4 per cent for staff above the lowest band and for fairer compensation for bank holiday working; is concerned that Visitor Assistants at V&A Storehouse are not allowed to carry or drink from water bottles while in position, despite staff at other V&A sites being allowed to do so, and calls on the employer to meaningfully engage on this and other serious health and safety issues including the failure to adopt consistent heatwave protections across all sites and providing adequate seating for staff; and further calls on Victoria and Albert Enterprises to renegotiate recognition and facilities agreements so that union representatives can engage constructively with management and urges the museum’s director, Tristram Hunt, to meet with the unions to resolve the damaging dispute.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment she has made of the impact of marking boycotts on university students.
Higher education (HE) providers are independent, and as such the government is not involved in negotiations regarding workforce issues. Nevertheless, we recognise the detrimental impact that marking and assessment boycotts can have on students and therefore urge all parties to work together towards a fair, reasonable, and sustainable resolution that minimises disruption.
The government continues to engage regularly with the sector, unions and employer bodies to better understand the issues affecting HE providers.
