Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 February 2025

Debate

Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill

Contribution

Protecting the public must always be the priority, and we must also be mindful of the burdens we place on businesses and other stakeholders. As Conservatives, we understand that regulation can stifle enterprise, dampen innovation and undermine the vibrant public spaces that are so central to British life. We are proud of our high streets, entertainment venues and bustling public spaces; they are part of what makes Britain great. There is an important balance to be struck.
