Environmental Reporting 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.
The purpose of this bill is to create a national-level environmental reporting system, including affirming the role of the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment in reporting on environmental reports and processes that produced the reports.MP in charge
