Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 March 2026

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

This amendment was drafted with input from experts across the online safety community. It tackles their concerns and, frankly, provides Parliament with the oversight it needs. Most importantly of all, it offers a way for the Government to act more urgently. It shows that government could—if it would—take a power in a way that is agile but gives Parliament proper scrutiny. It sets out the scope of what consultation should look at. It is not too late for the Government to do something different. I commend it to the House as a road map for what constructive and incisive leadership looks like.
