Speaking in the House of Lords on 28 April 2026

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

To reiterate, as both Secretaries of State for Technology have made very clear, Ofcom has absolutely got the backing of this Government for enforcement. It is already undertaking 100 investigations. The Online Safety Act, which some noble Lords have alluded to, set out a timetable for the review of enforcement measures. It seems appropriate that that happens at the point at which the evidence is there about the use of the duties. I was not here, but I presume that was the reason why that was the timetable set out by this House and the other place.
