David Mundell

Conservative — Dumfriesshire, Clydesdale and Tweeddale

Speaking in the House of Commons on 18 December 2024

Debate

Commonwealth Parliamentary Association and International Committee of the Red Cross (Status) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

I thank the hon. Gentleman for that and for his wider comments. The CPA UK in particular is a good way of bringing together colleagues from across the House. I know that Mr Speaker fully endorses and supports that. It has been a pleasure to attend many events over the years, both overseas and here, with colleagues from across the House. To return to my point, I hope that the Minister and the FCDO in its current guise will endorse and embrace the CPA, and the opportunity to use its soft power, to take forward matters that are in the interests of everybody across the United Kingdom.
