In the process of developing a policy it must go through 7 stages that a bill must proceed through
before it becomes a law.

Those 7 stages are:

1. First Reading
2. Second Reading
3. Committee stage
4. Report stage
5. Third Reading
6. House of Lords
7. Royal Assent



First Reading:

First reading is the first stage of a Bill’s passage through the House of Commons - usually a formality,
it takes place without debate.

First reading of a Bill can take place at any time in a parliamentary session.

What happens at first reading?

The short title of the Bill is read out and is followed by an order for the Bill to be printed.

What happens after first reading?

The Bill is published as a House of Commons paper for the first time.



Second Reading:

The next stage is second reading, the first opportunity for MPs to debate the general principles and
themes of the Bill.

What happens at second reading?

The Government minister, spokesperson or MP responsible for the Bill opens the second reading
debate.



The official Opposition spokesperson responds with their views on the Bill.

The debate continues with other Opposition parties and backbench MPs giving their opinions.

At the end of the debate, the Commons decides whether the Bill should be given its second reading
by voting, meaning it can proceed to the next stage.

It is possible for a Bill to have a second reading with no debate - as long as MPs agree to its progress.
