Baroness Hayman of Ullock (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 February 2026

Debate

Construction Industry: Timber

Contribution

The noble Lord asks a very interesting question. Those of us who have been involved in working with the construction industry will be aware that there is a quite a large lobby for the use of hemp in this country—I am sure the noble Lord is aware of it. As we move forward with more sustainable building, we have to look at all options, and I am sure we can consider hemp as part of that.
