War Powers Bill [HL]

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill aims to change how decisions about UK military action are made by giving Parliament (MPs) more say in whether Britain goes to war. Currently, the Prime Minister has significant power to start military operations; this bill would likely require a parliamentary vote first.

Presented by Lord Lansley.
