Baroness Bennett of Manor Castle (GP)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 April 2025

Debate

Armed Forces Commissioner Bill

Contribution

My Lords, I will be brief, as I am aware of the desire of the House to progress. The amendment goes back to what we discussed in Committee, raising the issue of under-18s in the Armed Forces, which the Minister knows is a particular concern of mine. At that point, I jumped on the back of an amendment tabled by the noble Baroness, Lady Smith. She listed a number of areas of concern and I added under-18s to that list.
