| 28 Apr 2026 | Education Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1839) “Is it not about when as well? For example, would you not agree that, if that was two hours at two o’clock in the morning and they have school the next day, that would be an issue? I really want to press on the idea of curfews and saying, “Actually, you shouldn’t be on Snapchat at two o’clock in the morning.” Do you hav…” | 67 |
| 28 Apr 2026 | Education Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1839) “Thank you. My next question is about the Government’s announcement last week about putting existing guidance on restricting mobile phones on a statutory footing. When I speak to schools in my constituency of Harlow, there is a mixed response on whether that needs to be statutory or not. Some schools say they do it very…” | 110 |

| 28 Apr 2026 | Education Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1839) “So you have no specific tools on Snapchat for that. You agree on the premise of it, but there is no specific tool that says to a young person, as you say, “Your lights should be out.” You have no tool like that at a specific hour.” | 47 |
| 28 Apr 2026 | Education Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1839) “But I understand that you have faced legal action in New Mexico and the USA due to accusations that your platform is designed to be addictive. How do you respond to that?” | 32 |

| 28 Apr 2026 | Education Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1839) “I declare an interest, in that I used to be a teacher and I absolutely recognise what you are talking about. My response would be that we can put it on a statutory basis, but do you agree that there still needs to be support? You talked about funding, for example—I am looking at Daniel over your head as I say this. You…” | 80 |

| 28 Apr 2026 | Education Committee — Oral Evidence (HC 1839) “On the point we have circled around, a number of social media companies we spoke to last week were in denial about how addictive their apps were. Having been a teacher and worked with young people, I know the desperation that young people feel to get their streaks up. I had one young person who was frustrated that they…” | 98 |
