Speaking in the House of Lords on 8 September 2026
Debate
Armed Forces BillContribution
Again, that will not satisfy everyone, but in this way I am recognising that, although noble Lords cannot amend secondary legislation, having the draft gives people the opportunity to comment. Those Members of the Committee who have dealt with me in many ways know that their involvement has influenced various reports, one of which is to be published next week, where their comments have been taken on board directly. That shows the commitment I have to ensuring that this is not just a talking shop and that we make changes.
