Armed Forces Bill: Remaining stages
The Commons will complete the remaining parliamentary stages of the Armed Forces Bill on 22 June 2026. This legislation governs the legal framework, governance, and operational structures of the UK's military forces. The bill will pass through final consideration and amendments before a third reading vote.
The Armed Forces Bill sets the statutory foundation for how the military operates, its accountability to Parliament, and its relationship with civilian government. Changes to military law, service conditions, or defence procurement rules affect service personnel, defence contractors, and ultimately national security and defence capability.
