Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 January 2026

Debate

Toilet-training: Support for Parents

Contribution

The most important aspect of the agenda that the noble Earl raises is that we work from the emerging evidence base, taking into account the findings that are being made and looking into this in great detail. We must not rush forward and make assumptions. However, he raises important points. Readiness for school is a top priority of this Government. Focusing on public health visits for two to two and a half year-olds will be a priority in making early assessments of where children need more intervention and making sure that they are ready for school when school comes.
