Rebecca Pow, the MP for Taunton Deane, is leading a Westminster Hall debate on Wednesday, 4 July between 9.30am-11.00am.

The subject is speech, language and communication support for children.

The debate follows a series of parliamentary questions that Ms Pow and other MPs and Peers have asked about Bercow: Ten Years On.
