Succession to the Crown Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill changes the laws that decide who can become the next monarch and in what order. It aims to make succession fairer and more modern, for example, ensuring that a daughter has the same right to the throne as a son, rather than being passed over just because she's female.

Presented by Keith Vaz.
