Liberal Democrat — Tiverton and Minehead

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 September 2025

Debate

English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill

Contribution

A particular concern of my constituents in Tiverton and Minehead, where we have one local authority in Devon and one in Somerset, is the real difficulties around special educational needs and disabilities. Does my hon. Friend agree that the Bill could create difficulties for local authorities that are struggling to deliver good SEND education for so many of our children?
