Third Delegated Legislation Committee: The draft Climate Change Agreements (Administration, Energy-intensive Installations and Eligible Facilities) (Amendment and Revocation) Regulations 2026
Parliament will examine regulations that revise and partially dismantle the Climate Change Agreements scheme, which gives energy-intensive industrial facilities a tax discount in exchange for meeting energy efficiency targets.

Second Delegated Legislation Committee: The draft Employment Tribunal (Extension of Time Limits) (Miscellaneous Amendments and Transitional Provisions) Regulations 2026

Puberty blockers
Conservative MPs are calling for a debate on the use of puberty blockers in treating young people with gender dysphoria.
