UK Parliament procedure browser

Procedure Browser makes available data for instruments subject to parliamentary procedure, compiled by the House of Commons Library.

From the beginning of the 2017-19 session, the data describes work packages for:

Statutory instruments laid before Parliament not subject to a procedure are not included. Other forms of delegated legislation are not included, even where they follow the procedures described here.

A sample of work packages describing UK public bills subject to legislative consent procedures in devolved legislatures has been compiled.

Procedures listed and the steps within those procedures are limited to those procedures and steps appearing in the work packages described or with the potential to appear in those work packages.

The list of enabling legislation is confined to Acts of the UK Parliament where those Acts have enabled one or more statutory instruments subject to parliamentary procedure since the beginning of the 2017-19 session.

Organisations either laying instruments subject to parliamentary procedure or leading treaties subject to parliamentary procedure are listed.
