Labour — Neath and Swansea East

Speaking in the House of Commons on 19 March 2026

Debate

Courts and Tribunals Bill

Contribution

It should be a fundamental right to be safe at home. The Courts and Tribunals Bill delivers that for children in this country by removing the presumption of parental contact. Will the Solicitor General join me in paying tribute to the tireless campaigning of Claire Throssell, who has fought every day in Jack and Paul’s memory to put children’s safety in law, so no one else will have to suffer as they did?
