Speaking in the House of Lords on 12 March 2026

Debate

Schools (Recording and Reporting of Seclusion and Restraint) (England) Regulations 2025

Contribution

In closing, I thank noble Lords for raising the points they have today, for prompting discussion and, I hope, for enabling me to clarify some of the points that have been made and to respond on the broader intention of the regulations. The Government will continue to work closely with schools, parents and the wider sector to ensure that restrictive interventions are used only when absolutely necessary, always safely, always lawfully and always in the best interests of children.
