United Kingdom: House of Commons adopted Property (Digital Assets etc) Bill

On 19 November 2025, the House of Commons passed the Property (Digital Assets etc) Bill at third reading, having been passed by the House of Lords on 8 May 2025. The version before the Commons confirms the Bill’s provision that a thing, including one that is digital or electronic in nature, is not prevented from being the object of personal property rights merely because it is neither a thing in possession nor a thing in action. The Bill also records its extension to England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, and its commencement on the day of enactment.
