The House of Lords Reform Bill
The House of Lords Reform Bill is legislation proposed to change how the UK's upper house of Parliament functions. Its goal is to make the House of Lords more democratic, transparent, and representative. This might involve replacing some or all of the current appointed or hereditary members with members elected by the public, or establishing new processes for selecting members. The reform aims to improve accountability, reduce unearned influence, and ensure the House better reflects the views and diversity of the population. The specifics can vary depending on the version of the bill, but the overarching purpose is to modernize and improve the effectiveness of the Lords.
