The Secretary of State is wary of giving too many assurances about the next spending review period due to potential changes post-election but acknowledges the success of the shared prosperity fund in Northern Ireland and hopes for its continuation strongly.

There is nothing I could say from this Dispatch Box that would put right the horror that the poor families of Barnaby Webber, Grace O'Malley-Kumar and Ian Austin suffered in those appalling attacks from Valdo Calocane. The law of homicide has been considered greatly—in fact, as a Back Bencher, I led a debate on the issue of first-degree and second-degree murder. It is of course something that we keep under careful consideration; there is complexity to it, but it is certainly a matter that we will consider.

We do not want to go down the route of direct rule or joint authority; our aim is to find a form that allows the Executive to reform, which we are working on with Northern Ireland colleagues.

I am grateful to my right hon. and learned Friend, who speaks with such authority. The circumstances are truly exceptional; when I was a Back Bencher, I went on record as saying that Horizon is the most serious miscarriage of justice since the Guildford Four or the Birmingham Six. But the situation involves hundreds of people and will need an appropriate resolution.

I am determined to make sure that people with disabilities have a voice across Government and deliver life-changing outcomes.

The money will be made available in Northern Ireland, about £15 million. The Government are keen to work with Northern Ireland Ministers for decisions that require a restored Executive.

I pay tribute to the work that my right hon. and learned Friend has done in this regard. I know that he took it very seriously and was passionate about this issue. In fact, we now have 100 neurodiversity support managers rather than 80: we have made significant progress, but there are still 22 vacancies. We have more work to do on the screening, and we have more work to do to ensure that the data collection is both consistent and robust.

We are committed to initiatives that support more disabled people and people with health conditions into work, including focusing on knowledge and responsiveness in workplaces.

We have already written to our stakeholders and we will be launching a consultation.

My right hon. and learned Friend is one of the people who knows most about corporate criminal liability. I would be happy to take his question away and discuss it with him, because justice system addresses not just individuals but companies too.

My right hon. and learned Friend has made an extremely good point. He is aware of the article to which I referred in my answer to my hon. Friend the Member for Bromley and Chislehurst—the Chairman of the Select Committee—in which I made clear my wish to engage with the Criminal Bar Association on the next stage of reform, which includes the advocates' graduated fee scheme and some of its core elements that were not in the first phase. As I have said, we adopted that two-phase approach precisely in order to deliver the initial increase in fees as soon as practicable, and it will be introduced in September: a 15% increase for criminal barristers working in magistrates courts and police stations and for those in the AGFS. We think that that is a very generous offer, and we hope the members of the CBA will think about it and stop their disruption of our courts.

My right hon. and learned Friend raises a very important issue. Officials are consistently looking at ways to ensure we comply with the Equality Act 2010. If there is a specific example he would like to give me, I would appreciate it if he wrote to me.
