Speaking in the House of Lords on 10 November 2025

Debate

Trade Act 2021 (Power to Implement International Trade Agreements) (Extension to Expiry) Regulations 2025

Contribution

I must express disappointment at the continuing extension of executive power to operate without appropriate parliamentary scrutiny on trade matters. Since 2021, we have seen significant damage under the regime which this measure continues. The previous Government cavalierly threatened the UK’s health, food, labour and environmental standards and did real damage to our farmers.
