Speaking in the House of Lords on 28 January 2026
Debate
Children’s Wellbeing and Schools BillContribution
Government Amendments 162, 163 and 164 would make all regulations attached to the children not in school register subject to the affirmative procedure in England and Wales. These regulations concern the administrative and technical details of how the registers will operate. However, having reflected on the high level of interest expressed over the course of these debates and the recommendations from the Delegated Powers and Regulatory Reform Committee, we consider it right that Parliament and the Senedd should have the opportunity to scrutinise changes to the operation of the registration system.
