Speaking in the House of Lords on 26 November 2024

Contribution

My Lords, it is 25 years since the last Labour Government introduced devolution, and we are very proud that it is an iterative and living process. As for future devolution, we are clear in our respect for devolution and our commitment to making the existing devolution settlement work effectively. We remain committed to the promises in our manifesto and will work to deliver them, including progressing conversations to consider devolution of youth and probation services, in order to enable them to be more locally responsive. We will also look to devolve employment support funding.
