Listed below are unpublished private members' bills currently before Parliament.
A bill cannot progress on to second reading until it has been printed. The bills listed on this page will progress no further until the text of the bill is published.
Private Members' Bills are Public Bills introduced by MPs and Lords who aren't government ministers. As with other Public Bills their purpose is to change the law as it applies to the general population.
The procedure for passing the different types of Bills is broadly similar in both Houses. At a very simple level, a Bill must pass through several stages - in both Houses - to become an Act. Find out more about the passage of a Bill.
