Covid-19: Charities

Debate between Baroness Barran and Lord Bishop of Rochester

Tuesday 24th March 2020 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Barran]

I am delighted to give the noble Baroness that reassurance.

[The Lord Bishop of Rochester]

My Lords, the noble Baroness has indicated that conversations are going on between the Government and the sector. I wonder whether she could give us more detail on that and on whether new networks are being put in place in the present circumstances, especially to link not just with the larger charities but with the wider sector, particularly those on the ground.
