Liberal Democrat — Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe

Speaking in the House of Commons on 26 January 2026

Debate

Contribution

Those delays are putting jobs and incomes at risk. How many people has the Department assessed as losing work because of the delays and what urgent action is being taken to clear that backlog?
