Reforming the House of Lords

Reforming the House of Lords involves changing how this chamber of the UK Parliament is structured and functions. Currently, it is made up of appointed and hereditary members who review and revise legislation. Reforms aim to improve its fairness, transparency, and effectiveness—potentially by making it fully elected, reducing appointed members, or introducing new selection methods. The goal is to make the House more democratic, accountable, and better suited to contemporary governance, ensuring it effectively checks and shapes legislation without unduly prolonging decision-making or losing the chamber's valuable expertise.
