Have a look at the flagship legislation introduced by Labour in our first Parliamentary session…
- The Employment Rights Act, the biggest upgrade in workers’ rights in a generation.
- The Passenger Railway Services (Public Ownership) Act, establishing Great British Rail – a publicly owned and accountable body to improve rail services and keep fares low.
- The Great British Energy Act, establishing a publicly owned organisation to bring clean energy and cheaper bills to British consumers and industry.
- The Renters’ Rights Act, providing renters with security and dignity in housing by outlawing no-fault evictions amongst other protections for private renters.
- The Removal of Two Child Limit Act, bringing 450,000 children out of poverty and providing security to working families by removing the arbitrary two-child benefit cap.
- The Water (Special Measures) Act, reversing the Tory decline in environmental standards and accountability in the water industry, empowering consumers and holding water bosses to account.
- The Crime and Policing Act, tackling violence against women and girls, anti-social behaviour and retail crime, whilst rebuilding public confidence in policing and the wider criminal justice system.
- The English Devolution and Community Empowerment Act, making good on our promise to give back control to local communities and provide mayors with unprecedented powers to deliver growth.
