International Health Regulations 2005 — [Dame Maria Miller in the Chair] (18 Dec 2023)

Public Sector Food Procurement (12 Dec 2023)

Anthony Mangnall: I will not take up much time, other than to thank you, Sir Christopher, for chairing this debate, and to thank hon. and right hon. Members for their contributions.
