Liberal Democrat — Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross

Speaking in the House of Commons on 1 June 2026

Debate

Child Sexual Offender Data

Contribution

The hour grows late. The people in the Public Gallery, who I must not mention, have sat patiently and listened. We know how many people signed the petition. That is an indication of how important it is out there. We have hon. Members from all over the UK in this debate—from Wales, my colleagues from Scotland, from all parts of England, and from Northern Ireland—because this issue matters in the body politic. We should all remind ourselves that petition debates have some of the highest viewing figures of anything that happens in this place—they are up there with Prime Minister’s questions—so an awful lot of people out there will be watching this debate. The key is that we have had a full and proper discussion: we have aired the issue, but it all depends on what happens next. I rest my case with that. Question put and agreed to. Resolved, That this House has considered e-petition 730605 relating to collection and publication of child sexual offender data.
