Speaking in the House of Lords on 11 February 2026

Debate

English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill

Contribution

Finally, I turn to Amendment 216D, tabled by the noble Lord, Lord Lucas. I first thank the noble Baroness, Lady O’Neill, for sharing what was probably a difficult experience for her, and which is reflected by so many of the candidates I speak to, particularly women candidates. I wish it was not necessary to conceal candidates’ addresses but, unfortunately, we are in the world we are in.
