Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Wright (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 October 2009. It occurred during Topical debate on Fireworks Safety.
Fireworks Safety
My hon. Friend is making a very good case. Does he agree that one of the other problems in this country is the closeness in time between Halloween and 5 November? There has been an increase in trick or treating, and fireworks are being used in that activity. That is particularly distressing, especially for the elderly who are coming to fear this time of year for all the wrong reasons.
