Legislation to regulate single-use plastics is expected to be tabled in the House of Assembly today, along with government’s plan to end homelessness and measures to regulate ride-sharing.

Plans to ban single-use plastics were announced in the 2018 Throne Speech and the Progressive Labour Party’s 2025 election platform spoke of “finalising a ban”.

In addition to the Single-Use Plastics Act 2026, the session is scheduled to include the tabling of both the Motor Car (Ride-sharing) Regulations 2026 and the Motor Taxi (Taxi Dispatching Service) Amendment Regulations 2026 by Owen Darrell, the Minister of Tourism and Transport, Culture and Sport.

The papers are intended to lay the groundwork for the introduction of ride-sharing on the island in the wake of the passage of the Motor Car (Ride-sharing) Amendment Act 2026 earlier this month.

Meanwhile, Tinée Furbert, the Minister of Youth, Social Development and Seniors, is expected to table Ending Homelessness Together — Plan to End Homelessness, along with homelessness data and the National Homelessness Action Plan 2025-2028.

Ms Furbert is also scheduled to table the Charities Amendment Act during the session.

Several ministerial statements are listed on the order paper, with David Burt, the Premier, speaking on enhanced benefits for the Government Employee Health Insurance Scheme.

Michael Weeks, the Minister of National Security, will speak on the launch of Bermuda’s national cybersecurity risk assessment, while Kim Wilson, the Minister of Health, will speak on the public health impact of road traffic collisions.

The House is also expected to debate the Cost of Living Commission Amendment Act 2026 to broaden the means by which price information can be shared publicly to include “electronic or digital real-time indicators, systems and means”.

Debate on the Merchant Shipping (Fees) Amendment Regulations 2026, which sets fees for the approval of seafarers’ medical examination programmes and fees for the administration of such programmes, is also expected.

The House will also consider the Proceeds of Crime (Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorist Financing) Amendment Regulations 2026, which expands the legislation to cover “proliferation financing”, which is described as the provision of funds in connection to chemical, biological, radiological or nuclear weapons.
