Mr Toby Perkins

Labour — Chesterfield

Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 April 2026

Debate

EnvironmentAL Audit Committee

Contribution

We look forward to working with the Minister. We will do everything we can to provide her with the support that she might need within the Department to get this issue taken as seriously as it should be. We recognise that there will always be people who push back. There are important reasons why we need to tread carefully, such as to support UK manufacturing, but we also need to recognise that this is a serious public health issue. We welcome the work she is doing and thank her for it.
