Lord Ravensdale (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 January 2026

Debate

English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill

Contribution

My Lords, I raised a minor point around paragraph (a) in Clause 2—“areas of competence”—which refers to “transport and local infrastructure”. My point is about the wording. That could perhaps be taken to mean local infrastructure related to transport. That is probably not the intention of the Government and this is local infrastructure in general, but perhaps there is an opportunity to clarify that wording.
