Dame Karen Bradley

Conservative — Staffordshire Moorlands

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 June 2026

Debate

Illegal High Street Trading

Contribution

The Home Secretary will be aware of the inquiry that the Committee is conducting on the role that organised criminality plays in the crime we see on our high streets. We heard compelling evidence recently about counterfeit goods, the role they play, and the role that forced labour plays throughout that supply chain. Can the Home Secretary explain what she is doing to combat forced labour? I look forward to putting more questions to her when she appears before my Committee before the summer recess.
