Statutory Instruments Act 1946 (Amendment) Bill

This bill amends the Statutory Instruments Act 1946, which governs how secondary legislation (rules and regulations made by ministers under powers granted by Parliament) is created, published, and scrutinised. The specific amendments modernise procedures for making statutory instruments, improve transparency and accessibility of these regulations, and strengthen parliamentary oversight mechanisms. The changes aim to make the regulatory process more efficient and democratic while ensuring that secondary legislation remains properly recorded and publicly available.
