Pete Wishart

Scottish National Party — Perth and Kinross-shire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 February 2025

Debate

Data (Use and Access) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

That is a very interesting contribution from the hon. Gentleman. It would be a useful exercise to find out who is speaking on behalf of certain companies, if they are reluctant witnesses. We should not have reluctant witnesses in this House. People should have an obligation to appear for parliamentary scrutiny. It does not matter whether it is the biggest tech brothers or the smallest company in our constituencies. He is right that that type of transparency would be really useful.
