Labour — Redditch

Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 April 2026

Debate

Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency

Contribution

I completely concur with my hon. Friend’s point. We are asking people to play by the rules, yet the rules do not work for them. I conclude by paying tribute to the work of my hon. Friend the Member for West Bromwich (Sarah Coombes) on ghost plates. It is a moment of pride to be named as a supporter of her Bill. She has done an extraordinary job in trying to fight an issue that goes across county lines in a rural constituency such as mine, which has a huge impact on safety and criminal activity. If the question is whether the DVLA is fit for purpose, I think my constituents would probably say no.
