Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 December 2024

Debate

Great British Energy Bill

Contribution

There are, in addition, other legal mechanisms. The UK supports voluntary due diligence approaches taken by UK businesses to respect human rights and the environment across their operations and supply relationships, in line with the UN guiding principles on business and human rights and the OECD guidelines on multinational enterprises. In summary, the Government expect UK businesses, including Great British Energy, to do everything in their power to remove any instances of forced labour from their supply chains, and they should not approve the use of products from companies that may be linked to forced labour.
