Clear the Lobby: The week ahead in Parliament

The big event of the week is the Heathrow vote on Monday – but that isn’t included here because it’s a motion rather than a bill. It’s scheduled to be a Brexit-free week with a new government bill that aims to tackle violent crime.

No votes scheduled.
