Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 July 2025

Debate

Enterprise Act 2002 (Mergers Involving Newspaper Enterprises and Foreign Powers) Regulations 2025

Contribution

The Government argue that further regulations will come in the autumn to address this “cumulative” problem. This raises the obvious question: if the regulations are defective now—and they are—why not fix them now? On Thursday, I asked the Minister to withdraw them and do just that. Why rush them through with full knowledge of their flaws?
