I had no meetings with Edaroth at Labour Party Annual Conference 2025 and shared no platforms with representatives of the company.

I participated in a number of advertised events at the conference, including a panel organised by Labour Housing Group, in which I set out the government’s overall approach to housing and planning. I did not discuss other Departmental business at any of these events.
