Stephen Doughty

Labour (Co-op) — Cardiff South and Penarth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 27 October 2026

Debate

Afghanistan: Support for Women and Girls

Contribution

The Chair of the Select Committee is a long-standing champion on these issues, even before her time chairing the Committee, and she and I have discussed these issues on many occasions. We always welcome a conversation with her about these matters, and I am sure that the Minister for International Development, who has responsibility for Africa, and indeed the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, my hon. Friend the Member for Bridgend (Chris Elmore), who works on preventing sexual violence, would be happy to sit down and discuss these issues with her.
