Steel Industry (Nationalisation) BillContribution
Amendment 18 would require regulations relating to continuity obligations to be subject to the affirmative rather than the negative procedure. Given the enormous scale of intervention in the Bill, the amendment would address the insufficient democratic scrutiny and strengthen parliamentary oversight of potentially intrusive or costly measures. Similarly, amendment 19 would also require regulations related to enforcement to be subject to the affirmative procedure.
