This week we had the State Opening of Parliament and the Queen’s Speech was delivered by the Prince of Wales. The Queen’s Speech set out an exciting agenda for the coming year and I look forward to closely scrutinising the Government’s plans. You can see some of the key legislation below:
- The Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill, which shifts power to local leaders to regenerate their towns and cities.
- The Energy Security Bill, which will deliver a more secure, homegrown and cheaper energy network.
- The Social Housing Regulation Bill, which ensures better quality homes meaning renters are not saddled with the cost and worry of unsafe homes
- The Schools Bill, which raises standards for students, reforming funding and encouraging attendance.
- The Financial Services and Markets Bill, which enhances the global leadership of the UK’s financial services sector.
- The Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Bill, which will bear down on criminals and kleptocrats who abuse our economy.
