The House of Commons will formally appoint the members of some of its select committees this week, following internal elections in the parliamentary parties. Questions remain about if and how the minor parties will be represented. Also this week, 78 Presentation Bills will receive their First Reading: one MP alone will present 30 of them. MPs will debate the Employment Rights Bill for the first time, though much of the policy detail is deferred to later regulations. And both Houses will vote on regulations implementing the first round of compensation payments for victims of the contaminated blood scandal, marking an important step in addressing this decades-long scandal.
