This Bill would ban importing goods made with forced labour in Xinjiang and would require UK importers of Xinjiang-origin products to prove that their goods were not produced using forced labour, improving supply-chain transparency. It focuses on Xinjiang-linked products and aims to strengthen checks on how they are made and sourced.
The Bill has completed its first and second readings in the Commons and remains at the 2nd-reading stage. It would next go to committee scrutiny in the Commons, before moving on to further stages and the Lords if it progresses.
