Data and Statistics Bill

Government Bill
Published date: 05 Jul 2024

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 Statistics Act 1975 and is informed by a review of statistics legislation and public consultation on high-level proposals for new data and statistics legislation.
