Correction made: Instrument should not have been laid in the House of Lords

House of Lords

A step of type Business step.

Most papers are laid before both Houses, while some, to do with financial/tax matters, are laid before the House of Commons only. Occasionally, a Commons only instrument is mistakenly laid before the House of Lords. Such instruments can be withdrawn and re-laid correctly or on rare occasions, a correction may be made in the House of Lords to declare the instrument should not have been laid.

Librarian notes

Scope note: This step is rare and has only been added to the made negative procedure so far with a time bound route limited to the date it occurred.

Link note: Correction page on Lords business

Date note: Date the correction was made, not the date it necessarily appears on Lords business. May need to speak to the Lords PPO to find out the date.
