Baroness Kidron (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 March 2026

Debate

Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill

Contribution

Can the noble Baroness say why the bar for evidence in this area of policy is after the event? Most critical industries have to abide by standards and they have to prove that a product is safe. Why are we, with all the bereaved families standing in the Gallery, talking about the lack of evidence on a day that a court case in the US has found the evidence against the companies? It does not make sense.
