to

This bill proposes to amend (change) the House of Lords Act 1999, which previously removed most hereditary peers (lords who inherited their titles). The amendment would make further changes to who can sit in the House of Lords and how it operates, though the exact details depend on what specific changes are being proposed.

Presented by Lord Grocott.
