Lord Beamish (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 30 April 2025

Debate

Armed Forces Commissioner Bill

Contribution

I will take that as a win. I look forward to the International Relations and Defence Committee of this House—I have been involved in the process. As I said when moving the amendment, for the campaigners, it is not to be underestimated that the individual selected has at least had the experience and been scrutinised by somebody other than the Secretary of State before the nomination. I welcome that. With the leave of the House, I beg leave to withdraw my amendment.
