Damian Hinds

Conservative — East Hampshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 July 2025

Debate

Fraud

Contribution

The Online Safety Act 2023 is a landmark reform, but criminals will always seek new channels, so what will the Minister do in his new fraud plan to address that displaced fraud, including that delivered through advertising on websites not covered by the Act?
