Speaking in the House of Lords on 18 September 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

In conclusion, these amendments are a defence of the rule of law. They would give teeth to the will of Parliament and would better equip the Secretary of State to ensure that the Government’s own policies are given effect. They seek to re-establish a proper chain of accountability. I ask the Minister to consider this proposal in the constructive spirit in which it is offered. It means a fix for a broken system, to restore parents’ trust, and that the law of the land is upheld in every school. I beg to move.
