Speaking in the House of Lords on 31 March 2025

Debate

Church Funds Investment Measure

Contribution

My Lords, as the House knows, I am chairman of the Ecclesiastical Committee. We considered this Measure, we heard evidence from the Church and we deemed it expedient. Perhaps I could just add that, since the Church of England is the established Church, it is entirely appropriate that suitable Measures from synod should become Acts of Parliament, which is what is happening at the moment—and these two Measures are appropriately being brought to this House.
