This bil has been enacted as the Recall of MPs Act 2015. This article needs updating to reflect this. 122.56.102.186 ( talk) 01:41, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
I observe that the text of the External Link to the Act, which I added in conformity with the normal practice for such links, as requested in the header of the meme which I subsequently deleted, states that the text is the current and up to date version. This is generically incorrect in relation to all Acts of Parliament, legislation.gov.uk is kept as up to date as resources and the arrival of new legislation permit, but carries an alert when the Act in question has been altered in some way and the change has not yet been reflected in its pages. You should either detect that in loading the text and alter the wording accordingly, or alter the phrasing to include the word "recently", and possibly add another rider to the effect that the site itself may qualify that.
What provisions exist in respect to legislation from other countries I cannot comment on, I was simply a member of the beta-test panel which vetted the first incarnation of legislation.gov.uk as StatuteLaw.gov.uk. 176.253.252.93 ( talk) 12:57, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
Section 24 of the legislation notes that only parts of the legislation come into force when royal assent is granted and the actual power to recall only comes into force when a separate statutory instrument. That instrument wasn't passed until March 2016. Should the commencement date be updated? Or should the article note that it wasn't possible to recall am MP at the date of commencement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.43.159.46 ( talk) 09:34, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
After reading all this I have no idea whether constituents can recall an MP or not. I can see why the great and good think this would be a bad thing. Just saying. Davidnugget ( talk) 17:04, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
An earlier version of this article stated:
Does anyone know what the current position is? I understand from her own article that she lost the appeal. Does that mean she is currently eligible for recall? AndrewRT( Talk) 17:08, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
Sorry I should have read the rest of the article first:
ok, so I'm in two minds about this. Does that fact that Webbe didnt qualify to be recalled (despite having the whip removed) merit a comment in the article? Perhaps given original criticism that the scope of the act was too narrow? AndrewRT( Talk) 17:11, 8 December 2022 (UTC)
She needs to be yes and put the number of people who voted to recall her GothicGolem29 ( talk) 16:32, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

I wanted to ask how do you update the table to it has the new names of new recall petitions and the colour of the parties? GothicGolem29 ( talk) 23:38, 7 November 2023 (UTC)
@ Redrose64:, regarding the question in the article edit summary, there was a sentence ending with a comma and a year without a month. I rectified both. Leaky caldron ( talk) 14:20, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
This article is about more than just the 2015 Act. It also covers the various recall petitions that have since occurred under the Act. I am not suggesting significantly changing the content, but should the article be renamed to something like Recall petition (United Kingdom)? Bondegezou ( talk) 12:06, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
