Draft affirmative Motion to approve the instrument withdrawn
Instruments subject to the draft affirmative procedure are laid in draft and require approval in Parliament before being signed into law. Instruments concerning taxation are not laid in the Lords and only require the approval of the Commons. The Commons debates the instrument in a Delegated Legislation Committee or in the Commons Chamber, where a decision on approval is made. The Lords debates the instrument in Grand Committee or in the Lords Chamber, where a decision on approval is made.
A step of type Business step.
Ministers table motions to approve affirmative instruments in both the House of Commons and House of Lords. Instruments cannot be debated without the motion being tabled.
