Asked by: Lord Elliott of Mickle Fell (Conservative - Life peer)
Question to the Department for Business and Trade:
To ask His Majesty's Government why they have not yet submitted an impact assessment of the measures outlined in the Employment Rights Bill to the Regulatory Policy Committee; when they plan to do so; and whether they plan to place a copy of that impact assessment in the Library of the House.
Answered by Baroness Jones of Whitchurch - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)
On Monday 21 October, the Government published a comprehensive package of analysis on the impact of the Employment Rights Bill [Employment Rights Bill: impact assessments - GOV.UK ].
These Impact Assessments have been submitted to the Regulatory Policy Committee who have acknowledged their receipt [Employment Rights Bill: statement on lateness of IA submission - GOV.UK ].
As is standard practice, this has also been published on the Employment Rights Bill page on the Parliament UK website [Employment Rights Bill publications - Parliamentary Bills - UK Parliament ].
