Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the statement by Lord Henley on 7 March, when the first document on changes to EU workers’ rights and health and safety standards in the workplace will be placed before Parliament; and whether both Houses will be consulted.

The proposed clauses will be included within the Withdrawal Agreement Bill and will be subject to debate in both Houses.

Our intention is for the first report to be published as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of the 6 months period starting from the commencement date. The clauses we set out on 7 March include a motion for both houses to approve the report within 28 sitting days, beginning on the day the report is laid before that House.
