Member's Bill
Published date: 10 Nov 2023

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 will exempt investors from countries within the OECD from the need to receive Overseas Investment Office approval to invest here, except in respect of investments in residential land.
