<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">The Employment Rights Bill completed its Committee Stage in the House of Commons on 16 January 2025. A total of 264 amendments were tabled to the Bill during this stage, and 149 of these, all Government amendments, were approved. The latest version of the Bill was published on 27 January 2025. We are awaiting confirmation of dates for the report stage and third reading of the Bill, after which it will proceed to the House of Lords. The Government is currently considering its response to four consultations held between October and December 2024, which asked for feedback on aspects of the Employment Rights Bill relating to strengthening statutory sick pay, collective redundancy and fire and rehire, industrial relations, and zero hours contracts. Further amendments to the Bill are likely to be introduced at the report stage in order to take account of responses to these consultations.</p>
