Proceeding contribution from Matt Western (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 June 2022. It occurred during Debate on bill on Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill.
Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill
The right hon. Member was very involved in the Committee, and I thought that his contributions were robust and helped the debate along. I do not mean to misrepresent what Professor Arif Ahmed may have said, and he did say that this should be impartial. However, it was clear from what was said by Professor Biggar that that will not be possible if the Government want to do what they have set out to do. This is the point that I was trying to make, and if I did not make it clearly I apologise, but I have certainly tried to put it back on the record now.
