Labour — Stevenage

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 March 2026

Debate

Representation of the People Bill

Contribution

The shadow Secretary of State has asked, on a number of occasions, whether we agree with his so-called legal definition. The legal definition is always for the purposes of the law for which it is intended, so the Children Act definition is for the purposes of that Act, and what we are debating today is for the purposes of voting.
