The tobacco and vapes bill, a key part of Sunak's legacy, was not included in final House of Commons business, raising doubts about its future implementation before the general election.
Mordaunt confirmed cross-party negotiations on bills excluded from the schedule, including the controversial bill to ban tobacco sales to those born after 2009, backed by opposition parties.
Excluded bills like football governance and renters' reform were not mentioned, while those compensating contaminated blood scandal victims and exonerating Horizon IT scandal victims were included.
Mordaunt assured victims of the infected blood scandal that compensation legislation will be passed on a cross-party basis, affirming the government's commitment to address the issue.
