Labour (Co-op) — Bathgate and Linlithgow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 September 2026

Debate

Rewiring the State

Contribution

I begin by welcoming my right hon. Friend to her place and wish her every success in her new role. I thank her for this statement and for this Government’s renewed focus on reindustrialisation in the UK, bringing opportunity and economic growth to every corner of the UK. With everything pushing towards increased manufacturing and construction, personal protective equipment is more important than ever as the last line of defence between workers and hazardous materials and incidents. The state has a role to play here; it can lead by example and ensure that every worker gets the protection they need to do their job safely. Will my right hon. Friend meet me to discuss public sector procurement specifications and BS 30417 on inclusive PPE?
