Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 4 December 2024

Debate

End of Radio Teleswitch Service: Rural Areas

Contribution

In my discussion beforehand with the hon. Gentleman, I mentioned what I would be referring to in this intervention. We have similar issues in Northern Ireland, so does the hon. Gentleman agree that the needs of rural areas need to be taken into consideration? The current cost of living crisis centres on an energy crisis, so we need to ensure that people are not paying more because they are unaware of the steps that need to be taken to deal with this change.
