Proceeding contribution from Bell Ribeiro-Addy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 February 2025. It occurred during Backbench debate on Low-income Countries: Debt Cancellation.


Low-income Countries: Debt Cancellation

This is not necessarily a divisive issue. When we ask those who are suffering the most from these matters, we find that they believe that it is difficult to move forward because of some of the wrongs that have been done to them in the past. It is simply about recognition and looking at ways to tackle this issue, and at how we can deliver recompense for the wrong that we have done. It is not about being divisive; it is just about accepting what went wrong and understanding that we have a duty to make it right.
