Hunch. September first readings cleared committee 28 times out of 28, so the recess is not the drag it looks like, and this sits below the 84 per cent base only because it is a one-clause repeal outside the King's Speech programme with no second reading date set.
This market resolves on the bill's page at bills.parliament.uk/bills/4296, which lists every stage with its sitting dates and updates on the evening of each sitting day. It resolves YES if a Commons committee stage or Committee of the whole House sitting is recorded on or before 14 December 2026. If the page is unavailable, the same stage records at bills-api.parliament.uk/api/v1/Bills/4296/Stages and Hansard settle it.
Most government bills reach committee within ninety days. We looked at every government bill brought into the House of Commons, using Parliament's own bills record. We checked whether each reached committee stage, when MPs go through a bill line by line, within ninety days of its first reading. Bills whose ninety days are still running are left out. Below are the ten most recent, newest first.
