Proceeding contribution from Sarah Jones (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 April 2026. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Knife Crime.


Knife Crime

What a horrific thing it is that has happened in my hon. Friend’s community—the murder of a child by a 13-year-old child. Of course we need to understand what has happened. I completely agree with my hon. Friend about the need to ensure that we always learn the lessons and that proper reviews are in place, and the framework is there to do that. While responsibility sits with the Scottish Government and local partners in this case, I cannot but agree wholeheartedly with what my hon. Friend has said.
