Asked by: Lucy Powell (Labour (Co-op) - Manchester Central)
Question to the Leader of the House:
To ask the Leader of the House, with reference to the Guide to Making Legislation, which Acts that received royal assent since 2010 have been subject to post-legislative review; and which Acts are being reviewed.
Answered by Penny Mordaunt - Lord President of the Council and Leader of the House of Commons
This information is not held centrally. Post-legislative scrutiny memoranda have been published on GOV.UK where bills have undergone the process. While all bills that have reached Royal Assent are eligible for post-legislative scrutiny after they are enacted, it can be agreed between the department and the relevant Commons departmental select committee that a memorandum is not required.
