Speaking in the House of Lords on 11 June 2025

Debate

Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill

Contribution

The intention here is to probe further into how collective and independent that decision-making process will be. If we are to have a public sector fraud authority that is truly independent and authoritative, surely the decision on who leads it operationally—the chief executive—should rest with a group of independent non-executive figures rather than one person acting alone, however capable.
