Speaking in the House of Lords on 7 September 2026

Debate

Financial Services and Markets Bill [HL]

Contribution

The amendment from the noble Lord, Lord Mackinlay, on probate, should, frankly, be a complete no-brainer for the Government to support. I know he will make that case strongly. I also support Amendment 94 on financial education, tabled by the noble Baroness, Lady Neville-Rolfe, although, as I have said to her in the past, I am a bit cautious about trusting something as important as financial education to the FCA. But the underlying thrust—that we need to be making huge headway on financial education—is absolutely correct.
