Speaking in the House of Lords on 24 March 2026

Debate

English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill

Contribution

I know that the noble Lord, Lord Shipley, has indicated his wish to withdraw Amendment 49, but I will make just one comment on it. Local scrutiny committees will go further than the noble Lord’s amendments, as I think he has recognised, by creating sanctions for mayors and commissioners who fail to comply with asks from their committee.
