FREE OUR BILLS CAMPAIGN

That this House believes it has a duty to publish Bills in such a fashion that they can be accessed as easily and as early as possible by the public; notes that the non-partisan Free Our Bills campaign is urging the House to publish bill texts in a new electronic format to improve accessibility and public scrutiny of legislation; notes that the changes requested have no impact on the content of bills, nor upon the process by which they are currently made; notes that the new format can be delivered cheaply and quickly; notes that the Leader of the House's Office has not accepted a prior request for new formatting from mySociety, nor has provided any explanation of why the changes cannot be made; and calls on the Leader of the House to take all necessary steps to ensure that House of Commons Clerks work with the Free Our Bills campaign staff to commence publication of Bills in the new format.
