Labour — Bolton South and Walkden

Speaking in the House of Commons on 15 June 2026

Debate

Social Media Ban for Under-16s

Contribution

I welcome the statement regarding the safety of our children online. I am grateful to the young people of Bolton South and Walkden who have shared their views with me. Children should obviously not be an afterthought at the implementation stage, so will the Secretary of State confirm that their voices have genuinely shaped the decision? Will she also assure the House that when these measures are implemented, children will remain at front and centre as the architects of their own online world?
