House Of Lords Vote Would Scupper TPD

Just a "heads up". This is a Terminal Motion being presented today. The VOTE will be on the 26th. :2thumbsup:
 
I have a friend who's in the HoL ... no, @Rob , Lords not Liquids!!
He's probably worth badgering about the vote on 26th, I'll see what Charlie boy has to say about it.

The OP says the Lords have until 10th June ... you're saying the vote's on 26th ... confused.com

Looks like a 'Ballot for the motion' on 19th (today) with debate (and presumably vote) on 26/5/16 but I'm probably wrong. It's not exactly clear

Unless Lord Callanan is forced by pressure from Downing Street to withdraw his motion there will be a debate and a vote. Under parliamentary rules if the Lords agree to this motion the statutory instrument implementing the TPD in the UK will fall. Such procedures are called “fatal motions” because the regulations get killed outright and do not go back to the Commons.

(For geeks: the Lords have until 10 June to vote against this delegated legislation. That will be the end of the 40 days of “praying time” during which a successful motion can block the statutory instrument. This is the case even though the law has previously gone into effect as the TPD will on 20 May.)
