What could be in the 2023 King's Speech?

Mar 20,2023 11:10 pm

By Paul SeddonPolitics reporter

King Charles will outline the government's law-making plans in a Speech to Parliament on Tuesday.

The ceremonial address, his first as monarch, will detail the legislation That ministers intend to pass in The Coming year.

It will be The First such blueprint of Rishi Sunak 's government, and likely The Last before The Next UK general election, expected next year.

We take a look at what could be included.

Leasehold reform

Housing minister Rachel Maclean That a bill to phase out some leaseholds in England and Wales will be in The Speech .

Ministers have long Promised to change The System , which has seen some homeowners face large maintenance bills and legal fees.

The Bill is expected to ban leaseholds for new houses, and change The Standard lease extension from 90 to 990 years.

But , to The Anger of some campaigners, it is not expected to scrap leaseholds for new flats.

Phased smoking ban

The Speech could include legislation to implement The Gradual smoking ban.

Under The Plan , the legal age to buy cigarettes in England , currently 18, would automatically rise by One Year every year.

It would mean today's 14-year-olds, born after January 2009, will never be able to legally smoke.

Football regulator

The government committed to establishing a new regulator for English football in February, following a consultation.

It will introduce more stringent tests for The Owners and directors of clubs, and have powers to stop clubs joining breakaway leagues.

That the government is looking to recruit an interim chief operating officer for The Body , to start by January 2024.

That suggests legislation setting up the regulator could be mentioned in The Speech - although this is yet to be confirmed.

Crime and sentencing

The government is reportedly planning to put a range of Criminal Justice measures at The Heart of The Speech .

Among the previously-announced measures That could be included are plans to give judges in England and Wales more powers to.

Ministers have also previously Promised to expand the circumstances in which judges have to hand down a whole-life order for certain types of Murder - and apply them to criminals who are yet to be sentenced.

The government has also said it wants to introduce mandatory jail terms for certain other offences, including shoplifting.

And it has previously said it would legislate to introduce a presumption That jail sentences of less than 12 Months are served in the community, and to deliver a plan to rent prison spaces overseas.

Hunting trophy ban

Campaigners will be watching closely to see whether a new bill to ban the import of hunting trophies into Great Britain appears in The Speech .

This Was a Tory manifesto commitment at The Last election, and the government says it supports a ban.

Ministers backed a Tory MP's bill to ban The Practice earlier this year, But it was timed out in The Last year-long parliamentary session after running into opposition in The House of Lords.

Activists groups are to have Another go, This Time by introducing a government bill, which would give ministers more control over the timetabling.

New rules for renters

One bill That will be included is the Renters Reform Bill, which began its journey through Parliament last month and has been carried over into The Next parliamentary session.

The Draft law would deliver a long-Promised ban on " no-fault" evictions in England - Another Tory manifesto promise.

However, even if it is passed there are question marks over when the ban would take effect, with the government saying reforms to The Court service.

Anti-boycott bill

Another draft law That has been carried over is the Economic Activity of Public Bodies (Overseas Matters) Bill, which would ban public bodies from boycotting Israel.

It has nearly completed its journey through The Commons - But some Conservative MPs have spoken against it, arguing it is unnecessarily restrictive and could enflame community tensions.

There are also reports The Cabinet is split on The Bill . The Foreign Secretary 's office has previously warned it.

Oil and gas licensing

A bill will be included That would force.

This normally happens anyway, But could set a political trap for Labour, which says it would block new domestic exploration licences if it wins power.

Pro-motorist measures

The Speech will include a bill to make it more difficult for local councils to introduce 20mph zones, or clean-air schemes such as the Ulez zone in Greater London .

The newspaper said it was part of a plan to open up a dividing line with Labour, following Mr Sunak's watering down of.

Draft bills

The government also already has A Number of bills in draft form, which could be formally introduced during The Coming year.

These include a Mental Health Bill to overhaul the grounds for detaining and treating Mental Health patients, and a bill to force UK venues to draw up anti-terror plans,

There's also a draft Media Bill - although its headline aim, to privatise Channel 4 , was earlier this year.

What might be left out?

The government's bill to authorise the construction of the HS2 rail line between Crewe and Manchester will no longer be required, after Mr Sunak abandoned the.

The Financial Times That a planned bill to overhaul the UK's audit and Corporate Governance regimes won't feature in The Speech .

Latest reports also suggest That a ban on so-called conversion therapy to change someone's sexual orientation or gender Identity - Promised since 2018 - will also not be included.
