Speaking in the House of Commons on 25 November 2024

Debate

Car Theft: Rural Areas

Contribution

Sorry, Mr Speaker. These questions are like buses—they all come along at once. Vehicle theft is a deeply distressing and damaging crime which can have a detrimental effect on both individuals and businesses, including in rural communities. That is why we are working closely with both the police and the automotive industry to ensure the most robust responses possible to these crimes. Last week I met with the National Police Chiefs’ Council lead for vehicle crime to discuss this issue and how we can better work together to prevent it.
