Monica Harding

Liberal Democrat — Esher and Walton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 13 January 2025

Debate

Children’s Social Media Accounts

Contribution

Does my hon. Friend agree that it is about not only mental health harm, but inattention? I speak to many headteachers in my constituency who tell me that children are unable to concentrate any more because of hours spent on their screen. Would she agree that the Government study announced in November that seeks to explore that issue further should be published soon, because every day and every year we leave it, more children are at risk of harm?
