DISAGREEMENTS BETWEEN LORDS 
AND COMMONS
With non-controversial Bills, the Commons usually 
accepts the Lords' amendments. However, sometimes 
the disagreement runs deeper, and the Commons then 
sends the Bill back to the Lords, with an explanation. 
The Bill may pass to and fro between the Houses for 
some while before agreement is reached. If a compromise 
could not be reached, the Commons would eventually get 
their way by re-introducing the Bill the following year. In practice 
the Lords do their best to avoid this delay by seeking a satisfactory solution.
