Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 June 2026

Debate

Civil Aviation (Consumer Protection and Regulatory Reform) Bill [HL]

Contribution

The noble Lord, Lord Holmes of Richmond, spoke about the 2012 Paralympics. To be honest, I had forgotten some of the issues. Can you imagine the USA team or the Chinese team coming in and being pushed through the airport? I do not think any of the big airports would have enough wheelchairs to move that number of people. Inclusive by design should be part of not just this Bill but every single Bill that we do, because disabled people and the issues around this are being lost and forgotten.
