Motion to consider the instrument approved

A debate in a Delegated Legislation Committee takes place on a motion that “the Committee has considered” the statutory instrument. At the end of the debate, the Committee has to decide whether it agrees with the motion that it has considered the statutory instrument. Often this is agreed without a vote. Even if the Committee votes against the motion, the statutory instrument can still proceed to its next stage. This is because the motion is simply about whether the Committee has considered the statutory instrument.

Scope note: We've added this step as a temporary solution to a procedural exception that happened in DLC on 07/02/2023. The procedure of motions to consider will be mapped out fully in spring 2023 and will be actualised after every DLC. The same procedure will be mapped out in the Lords for Grand Committee.
