Speaking in the House of Lords on 25 November 2025

Debate

Diego Garcia Military Base and British Indian Ocean Territory Bill

Contribution

On the amendments from the noble Lord, Lord Lilley, I agree with him that the Government should provide more clarity on the plans for Mauritian administration of the islands and plans to manage the democracy there. As we discussed in the previous group, Ministers must have done at least some work assessing Mauritius’s plans and capabilities in respect of the archipelago. I hope that the Minister will be able to provide the Committee with a full answer to that.
