MPs and peers met for the first day following the half-term recess. MPs began the day with questions to ministers from the defence team.
Chancellor George Osborne hinted that a new rule aiding and abetting tax evasion and aggressive tax avoidance will be included in the budget next month during a response to an urgent question.
Prime Minster David Cameron announced a Europe-wide initiative to push airlines and internet companies to do more to prevent people becoming radicalised.
The Serious Crime Bill completed its final stages in the House of Commons.
Peers also met at 14.30 GMT and after oral questions considered the Modern Slavery Bill at report stage.
And that brings an end to today's business in the Houses of Parliament.
Parliament will be back at 11.30 GMT tomorrow as MPs return to question Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt and his ministerial colleagues.

Ms Ellison admits that "we just haven't seen the movement in [oesophageal and stomach cancers] as with other cancers".
She agrees to consider Mike Weatherly's proposals, but argues that the many of the government's initiatives, including the Cancer Task Force, are working to "improve outcomes."
House of Lords
Parliament
The end of the first day of report stage debate on the Modern Slavery Bill brings tonight's proceedings in the Lords to a close.
Peers return tomorrow from 14.30 GMT for questions to ministers.
The main business includes consideration of Commons amendments to the Consumer Rights Bill.
The House will also consider regulations on mitochondrial donation, which MPs agreed earlier this month.

Health Minister Jane Ellison is now responding to the debate for the government.
House of Commons
Parliament
Mr Weatherly calls on the government to implement six changes:
speeding up the process of seeing a GP to stop patients putting off receiving health care
improve testing at the point of access with GP
educating patients in symptoms of oesophageal cancer
streamlining the referral system to allow quick testing and diagnosis
allocating extra resources for endoscopies - a nonsurgical procedure used to examine a person's digestive tract
greater hospice care for end of life
House of Commons
Parliament
Mr Weatherly tells MPs that after he had his oesophagus and a third of his stomach removed, due to an ongoing digestive problem, he was diagnosed with cancer.
Over half oesophageal cancer patients die within six months, he tells MPs, and 85% will die within five years.
While he has recovered since his diagnosis in 2012, he lists this mortality rate as one of the reasons he is leaving parliament after only one term.
House of Commons
Parliament
Conservative MP Mike Weatherly stands to open today's final business, an adjournment debate on oesophageal cancer.
House of Commons

Conservative Bill Cash's amendment to allow girls "at risk of" female genital mutilation to be referred to the police is defeated by 282 votes to 227, a government majority of 55.
The bill has now completed all stages in the House of Commons and will now enter parliamentary ping pong, external, which sees the bill return to the house of Lords for further scrutiny.

House of Lords

Peers are considering an amendment, proposed by Labour's Lord Warner, which would create a National Referral Mechanism (NRM) to identify trafficked, enslaved or exploited people, provide assistance and support, and ensure their rights are protected.
House of Commons

House of Lords
Parliament
Over in the Lords, debate continues on the Modern Slavery Bill, focusing on the role of the proposed anti-slavery commissioner.
The bill would create an anti-slavery commissioner who would have responsibility for ensuring a more coordinated response from the police and other agencies.
The bill says that the commissioner "must encourage good practice in the prevention, detection, investigation and prosecution of slavery and human trafficking offences [and] the identification of victims of those offences".
House of Commons
Parliament
Labour MP John Mann's amendment falls as well. This time by 296 votes to 233 - a government majority of 63.
Next up, a vote on Labour's proposals to make it an offence not to report suspected child abuse to the police.
House of Commons
Parliament
MPs reject the sex selective abortion amendment by 292 votes to 201, a government majority of 91.
But before they're allowed to sit down for too long another division is called, this time on Labour MP John Mann's proposal to waive the Official Secrets Act when releasing information to a historic child abuse investigation.
MPs file out of the chamber and into the voting lobbies. The result is expected at around 21.30 GMT.
House of Commons
Parliament
Health Committee chair and GP Dr Sarah Wollaston says she cannot support the amendment.
If enacted it may have the unintended consequences of preventing women confiding in their doctor that they "feel under pressure" to abort their child because of its gender, as they may fear they will be criminalised.
"We may see the complete reverse of the intention of this amendment," she warns.
House of Commons
Parliament
Conservative MP David Burrowes stands to speak in support of the amendment. He tells MPs that the law "does not expressly prohibit gender-selective abortions".
The law instead prohibits abortions carried out without "two medical practitioners forming a view in good faith where the health risk of continuing pregnancy outweigh termination", making sex selective abortions a matter of "professional misconduct".
House of Lords
Parliament
Debate on the Modern Slavery Bill resumes with consideration of an amendment to require the anti-slavery commissioner to encourage "good practice" internationally, as well as in the UK.
Crossbench peer Lord Alton of Liverpool is opening debate on the amendment.
He calls for countries to "move beyond the parochial" and recognise common interests.

The amendment would insert the phrase: "Nothing in section 1 of the Abortion Act 1967 is to be interpreted as allowing a pregnancy to be terminated on the grounds of the sex of the unborn child" into the Serious Crime Bill, putting it on statutory footing.
