Speaking in the House of Lords on 22 May 2025

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

Amendment 63A would enable consequential amendments to ensure that the consistent identifier is established and recorded at the earliest appropriate moment. It is important that the consistent identifier is allocated at birth, or as soon as possible for children born overseas, and that it is recorded accordingly. As has already been made clear in the other place, the requirement to use the consistent identifier will apply to all children from birth up to the age of 18.
