Written Answers
Harland and Wolff: Navantia
Asked by: Lord Rogan (Ulster Unionist Party - Life peer)
Tuesday 13th May 2025

Question to the Ministry of Defence:

To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with Navantia UK about the role of the Harland & Wolff shipyard in Belfast in delivering the National Shipbuilding Strategy.

Answered by Lord Coaker - Minister of State (Ministry of Defence)

Navantia’s purchase of Harland and Wolff is a significant investment into the UK’s industrial base and demonstrates Navantia UK’s (NUK) continuing commitment to the UK. This investment will further strengthen UK capability, modernising the shipbuilding facilities in Belfast and leading to increased productivity and capacity.

NUK’s delivery of the Fleet Solid Support contract and the provisions within are delivering against key aspects of the National Shipbuilding Strategy, including greater UK content and build, inward investment, engagement with SMEs and shipyard recapitalisation.

The National Shipbuilding Office is committed to working with the whole shipbuilding industry, including NUK, in supporting jobs and sustaining and growing our shipbuilding sector across the UK.

Cyprus: Cultural Relations
Asked by: Lord Rogan (Ulster Unionist Party - Life peer)
Thursday 15th May 2025

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what recent steps they have taken to promote cultural exchange programmes between the United Kingdom and Northern Cyprus.

Answered by Baroness Chapman of Darlington - Minister of State (Development)

In accordance with the rest of the international community, with the sole exception of Turkey, the UK does not recognise the self-declared 'Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus' as an independent state. Several UN Security Council Resolutions limit links between UK and the north of Cyprus. However, the UK supports appropriate measures aimed at reducing the isolation of the Turkish Cypriot community and has funded various local projects aimed at bringing together Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot communities, including art exhibitions, film festivals and wider youth engagement initiatives. The Minister for Europe, North America and UK Overseas Territories met representatives of the Turkish Cypriot community on his recent visit, and discussed a range of matters with Greek and Turkish Cypriot leaders at the UN settlement talks on 17-18 March.

UK Internal Trade: Northern Ireland
Asked by: Lord Rogan (Ulster Unionist Party - Life peer)
Wednesday 21st May 2025

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to remove the export procedures to which five categories of goods moving from Northern Ireland to Great Britain are subject under the Windsor Framework (UK Internal Market and Unfettered Access) Regulations 2024.

Answered by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

The Windsor Framework (UK Internal Market and Unfettered Access) Regulations 2024 further entrench the legislative protections for unfettered access, which remove the requirement for export procedures, except in extremely limited exceptions. Where these procedures apply, they are a result of specific processes, such as the movement of endangered species or international obligations binding on the UK.

Police: Northern Ireland
Asked by: Lord Rogan (Ulster Unionist Party - Life peer)
Thursday 29th May 2025

Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the remarks by Lord Timpson on 13 May (HL Deb col 2055), how much of the extra £1 billion for policing will be allocated to Northern Ireland.

Answered by Lord Livermore - Financial Secretary (HM Treasury)

As set out in the 2025-26 final police funding settlement, overall funding for the policing system in England and Wales will be up to £19.6 billion, an increase of up to £1.1 billion when compared to the 2024-25 funding settlement


This funding is for England and Wales. Policing is devolved in Northern Ireland and so the Barnett formula was applied in the normal way to the Home Office DEL budget, providing Barnett consequentials to the Northern Ireland Executive.

The Northern Ireland Executive's Phase 1 Spending Review settlement is the largest in real terms of any settlement since devolution, at £18.2 billion in 2025-26, including an additional £1.5 billion through the operation of the Barnett formula.

Veterinary Medicine: Northern Ireland
Asked by: Lord Rogan (Ulster Unionist Party - Life peer)
Wednesday 4th June 2025

Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether the removal of regulatory barriers on the supply of veterinary medicines from Great Britain to Northern Ireland is a priority issue in their discussions with the European Union; and when they expect an agreement on that issue to be reached.

Answered by Baroness Hayman of Ullock - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs)

Ensuring the continued supply of veterinary medicines into Northern Ireland remains a priority for His Majesty’s Government. On 19 May, the UK and the EU committed to negotiating an SPS Agreement, and while we do not expect this to cover veterinary medicinal products, the Government remains committed to protecting animal health and welfare in Northern Ireland by safeguarding supply. Officials continue to engage regularly with the EU, and the Government will be setting out its approach on this in due course.

Airports: Portugal
Asked by: Lord Rogan (Ulster Unionist Party - Life peer)
Thursday 5th June 2025

Question to the Home Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with the government of Portugal about allowing UK passport holders to use e-gates at Portuguese airports.

Answered by Lord Hanson of Flint - Minister of State (Home Office)

We have secured confirmation that there will be no legal barriers to eGates use for UK nationals travelling to and from EU Member States after the introduction of the EU's Entry/Exit System.

But the Prime Minister has been clear that we believe European countries should go further and faster now.

We are therefore working with individual Member States at pace to make that transition happen as soon as possible. This includes discussions with Portugal.

House of Lords: Security
Asked by: Lord Rogan (Ulster Unionist Party - Life peer)
Thursday 26th June 2025

Question

To ask the Senior Deputy Speaker what the tender process was used before the contract for the supply and installation of the door at Peers' Entrance was finalised; how many tenders were submitted; which contractor was successful in securing the contract; and who made the final decision to award that contract.

Answered by Lord Gardiner of Kimble

The tender processes that were used are as follows:

Security Portal Contract

The Authority tendered to and contracted with Meesons A.I Ltd for the supply of a mobility accessible security portal and a secure revolving door portal which conforms with nationally recognised standards. Meesons A.I Ltd were identified as the only approved distributor capable of meeting Parliament’s requirements.

Main Works Contract

Three contractors were given the opportunity to be issued an invitation to tender for the main works contract (including the installation and commissioning of the portal and revolving door) at Peers’ Entrance through a mini-competition on a Parliamentary Framework. Two contractors confirmed they wanted to bid for the works and were issued an invitation to tender. Both contractors submitted tenders which were evaluated. The procurement was conducted in line with standard Parliament procurement procedures, where tenders are evaluated against a comprehensive set of criteria. The tender included a technical weighting (quality aspects) of 60% and a commercial element (cost) of 40%. The highest scoring contractor was awarded the contract.

The contractor that was successful in securing the installation Works Contract was DBR (London) Limited. The contractor that was awarded the supply contract was Meesons A.I Ltd.

Authorisation to award both contracts followed Parliament’s existing contract award and governance process, including approval of the project business case by the Accounting Officers of both Houses.
