Energy Consumption (Innovative Technologies) Bill2018 · Private member's bill (ten-minute rule)
Taken from Parliament's own records of bills. A government bill carries the name of the minister who introduces it, so it says which brief they held, not that they wrote it. Private member's bills are the ones MPs and peers bring forward themselves, and very few become law.
