Speaking in the House of Lords on 23 June 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

I turn to the amendments tabled by the noble Lord, Lord Farmer. Improving services for infants, their parents and carers is central to our ambition to raise the healthiest generation ever and to give every child the chance to succeed. The noble Lord knows that the Government already fund 75 local authorities to publish Start for Life offers and have provided national guidance to support all local authorities to develop and promote their offers. The legislative requirements of the approach he is proposing, including how best to provide information to parents, will be considered as part of the best start in life strategy.
