Baroness Barran (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 September 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

I apologise that my final remarks will be slightly negative in tone, but I cannot support this amendment. It is not appropriate to have such a measure in primary legislation. I do not agree with my noble friend’s definition of authoritarian rule, nor with his prioritisation, if we were in a time of genuine national emergency.
