I certainly will. During this lockdown period we provided funding to the NSPCC which helps parents keep their children safe online too.

[Baroness Lane-Fox of Soho (CB)]

I declare my interests as noted in the register. With an increase in harms to children online during this pandemic, the pushback of the online harms Bill and no date yet set for the code of conduct so tirelessly campaigned for by my noble friend Lady Kidron, when will the Government commit to filling the gaps left by these pushbacks and delays?

[Baroness Williams of Trafford]

The delays are regrettable. We will come forward with the online harms Bill as soon as we possibly can.
