Government Bill
Published date: 03 Jun 2025

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 amends the Social Security Act 2018 to introduce mandatory reviews to confirm whether clients are still eligible and receiving the correct rate of specified benefits.
