Plain Language Act Repeal Bill
Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.
This bill repeals the Plain Language Act 2022 to remove the compliance-based administrative requirements the Act places on public service agencies.MP in charge
