Labour — Erith and Thamesmead

Speaking in the House of Commons on 14 November 2024

Debate

Lords Spiritual (Women) Act 2015 (Extension) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

I thank the hon. Member for that helpful suggestion, which could be examined at the next stage. I know that he did a lot of work in this area, particularly as an adviser when this policy was being taken forward in the House of Lords, so I welcome his insight into this area. The contributions to this debate have been extremely powerful. I know that there have been lengthy conversations about this Bill in the other place.
