The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether he plans to present the Audit Reform and Corporate Governance Bill during this parliamentary session.

Answered by Justin Madders

Due to the current volume of legislation before Parliament, the Government will not publish a draft Audit Reform and Corporate Governance Bill this session. We will improve our proposals further through consultation on the details with stakeholders in the Autumn.
