13-16 October 2025

Parliament returns this week after a three-week recess. MPs may address developments in Israel and Gaza, the collapse of the China spying case, plans for digital ID, and recent immigration announcements. They will also scrutinise four Bills, question four departmental ministerial teams, debate baby loss and badger culling, and hear evidence from tax experts, energy executives, and travel and immigration experts. In the Lords, the membership of the new Select Committee to consider the Assisted Dying Bill will be confirmed. Peers will examine six Government Bills, debate the National Policy Statement for Ports, and question the Border Security Commander. Two new Peers, Liz Lloyd and Jason Stockwood, will take their seats following their recent ministerial appointments.
