Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 November 2024

Debate

Crown Estate Bill [HL]

Contribution

We read in this week’s Sunday Times of growing resentment in Cornwall and elsewhere at the way in which the royal coffers benefit from similar activity. The way to avoid such bitterness being directed at the Royal Family is to ensure that those territories from where financial gain is extracted by the Crown Estate, be they Wales, Northern Ireland or indeed Cornwall, get a fair proportion of the takings.
