Damian Hinds

Conservative — East Hampshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 April 2025

Debate

Digital Landlines: Rural Communities

Contribution

The Minister is right that the most vulnerable people must be at the very top of our list of concerns, but can I be really clear that this debate is not only about that group? It is about anybody who is cut off in a storm and may need to phone the emergency services, because anybody—they may not even be elderly—might have a medical emergency. That has not been getting enough attention in his remarks so far.
