It is a great pleasure to serve under your chairmanship for the first time, Ms Bardell. I warmly congratulate my hon. Friend the Member for Rugby—and Bulkington—(Mark Pawsey) on securing this debate. The Government recognise the important service that locksmiths provide and the risk posed when standards are left unchecked. However, there is no evidence of unlicensed locksmiths contributing to neighbourhood crime such as burglary. The Master Locksmiths Association has a robust accreditation scheme approved by Secured by Design for vetting and inspecting approved locksmiths. Consumers can use information available on the association's website to ensure they receive quality work at fair rates. There is a consumer protection framework in place, including the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008, which outlaws misleading practices and poor professional conduct with criminal penalties enforced by local authority trading standards officers. The Government are driving down crime through measures such as boosting police workforce, providing £45 million for safer streets fund to support areas disproportionately affected by burglary and theft, and a further £25 million for round 3 targeting the safety of public spaces, especially for women and girls. They also consider how to use the decent homes standard to keep social housing residents secure and are consulting on extending security requirements in part Q of the building regulations to existing homes too. The Government remain open to representations from trusted voices in the industry and encourage continued engagement with officials at the Home Office.
