Speaking in the House of Lords on 27 April 2026

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

We will not accept a timeline that gives platforms years to comply. If the Government want to avoid further deadlock, they must return with a package that incorporates a tight timeline, constraints on Henry VIII powers, the vital safety by design mechanisms proposed by the noble Baroness, Lady Kidron, and much greater assurance on enforcement by Ofcom. We must regulate the product, not the child. We must send a clear message to the Government today about the standard of legislation we expect.
