House of Commons
24 September 2019
This Bill makes changes to how the UK handles immigration and how social security rules interact with the European Union after Brexit. It aims to set the UK’s post-Brexit arrangements and modify or end EU-wide social security coordination. It is currently being considered in the Commons at report stage after Lords amendments were raised.
The bill is at the report stage in the House of Commons after MPs voted to disagree with Lords amendments; it would proceed back to the Lords for further consideration if that path continues.
In the six motions to disagree with Lords Amendments 1–6, the Ayes were typically in the mid-320s to mid-330s and Noes in the mid-250s to mid-260s, indicating broad support for disagreeing with the Lords’ changes. In June 2020, the Third Reading passed 342 Aye to 248 No, and several proposed new clauses (by Yvette Cooper, Keir Starmer, Mr Davis, and Mr O’Hara) were defeated (around 247–255 Aye vs 332–344 No). Party positions were mixed, with MPs from different parties voting for and against different provisions.
