Westminster this coming week - debates on Cultural Properties in armed conflicts, PMQs and more

The Cultural Properties in armed conflicts bill is the long waited for implementation of The Hague convention.
Fuller details are here: https://historicengland.org.uk/whats-new/statements/cultural-property-armed-conflicts-bill/
It is a very worthy and proper bill which I support wholeheartedly
There are also debates on pharmacies, the usual Wednesday PMQs, and various Westminster hall debates, notably the 2 petitions debates on grouse shooting, one for and one against.
This week is also living wage week, with various celebrations of the increase of wages that have have taken place over the last 6 years. I have several constituents visiting in Westminster and a variety of other meetings.
