Proceeding contribution from Baroness Taylor of Stevenage (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 February 2026. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill.

English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill

I am very pleased to hear that. The noble Lord, Lord Wallace, asked me earlier whether the Bill will go to Report, and I confirm that is the case. I hope that the noble Earl will still be here to participate on Report, and we look forward to his contributions. He has a great deal of knowledge and experience of the property sector and many other areas related to all of the issues we have debated on this and other Bills. I particularly valued his expertise on property safety and his knowledge of construction when debated the Planning and Infrastructure Bill. I am very grateful to him.
