I reassure the hon. Gentleman that I am wearing my face covering today out of choice and because I believe it is the right thing to do.
Rachel Hopkins (Luton South) (Lab)

Maggie Throup
I have spoken to numerous stakeholders with regard to my portfolio. I reassure the hon. Lady that we address the issues as and when we need to.
