Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 December 2024

Debate

Great British Energy Bill

Contribution

Great British Energy will be expected to respect human rights under the Human Rights Act. It will be subject to the existing provisions in legislation on forced labour supply chains under the Modern Slavery Act 2015, and under the Procurement Act 2023 when this is fully in force in February 2025. The noble Lord, Lord Alton, asked about another piece of legislation. We are still working on it, and I will definitely come back to him with a response.
