Remote Coastal Communities

Debate between Judith Cummins and Perran Moon

Monday 8th September 2025 Commons Chamber

[Perran Moon]

I am not sure that such a Minister is what we need. What we need is absolute focus and a cross-departmental Government strategy for remote coastal areas. In these areas, we feel acutely the focus on urban areas and, in particular, mayoral combined authorities. Without sustained investment in remote coastal areas, in housing, transport, skills and economic development, our collective economic potential will remain untapped.

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Judith Cummins)]

I call Andrew George.
