Good evening everyone! The Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill (aka the #PolicingBill) is back in the Lords this evening. We understand that many Lords are planning to insist on noise a third time.

Live tweets will be on this thread below! Possibly only a few minutes more until the #PolicingBill is up! There’s a division on the Health and Care Bill, and I think I just saw the Minister sit down.

Good afternoon all! The #PolicingBill is back in the Commons this afternoon. There are two statements ahead of the Bill, so it may be up to another hour. This is the thread in which we will follow the Bill. At the moment we are still listening to a statement on Ukraine. It will be followed by a statement on Football Governance. The #PolicingBill will follow.

The last day of Report for the #PolicingBill is well underway. We'll be tweeting here all night. The first group has been covered. We're now on to the second group, which is about hunting with dogs. It includes issues such as hare coursing.

Part 3 will probably start in a couple of hours. This is a HUGE Bill, and Part 3 is right at the end.
