Statutory instrument should be laid under the affirmative procedure
A step of type Business step.
After a proposed negative instrument has been laid, each House has ten sitting days in which it may consider the instrument and agree with the proposal of the Minister, or instead recommend the instrument be subject to the draft affirmative procedure. Any result of consideration does not bind a Minister, who must nevertheless make a written statement if disagreeing with a recommendation of a committee. If the Minister does not make such a statement after a committee has recommended the affirmative procedure then any subsequent statutory instrument will be laid under the affirmative procedure.
