What happens if the House of lords does not pass a bill?
Legislation is a major function of the House of Lords. It spends about two thirds of its time revising Bills sent from the House of Commons. Indeed it is often referred to as a ‘revising chamber’. It is also known as the Upper House. The House of Lords also acts as a check on the Government and is a forum for debates on topics of the day. It is also the ultimate Court of Appeal. HOL cannot ammend or iniate money bills Th house of Lords can vote no for a bill by sending admendments to the House of Commons. The House of Commons will vote for this bill.
