Lord Forsyth of Drumlean (Con)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 April 2025

Debate

National Debt: It’s Time for Tough Decisions (Economic Affairs Committee Report)

Contribution

I am most grateful to the Minister. He is a former member of the Economic Affairs Committee, and he is right to pay tribute to the importance of the subject. Will he make representations to his colleagues who are responsible for the business of the House? It really is not acceptable to have a debate on a committee report such as this on a Friday when people are limited to four minutes to speak.
