It has been widely criticised by Northern Ireland's political parties, the Irish Government and victims' groups.
The former police ombudsman for Northern Ireland has said the UK Government is trying to force through a legacy Bill which is "not fit for purpose".
Speaking to BBC Northern Ireland's Sunday Politics, she said: "I think the Government are going to try and force this through, I think it's completely the wrong thing to do. Baroness O'Loan said she cannot understand why any proposed "game-changing" amendment was not made during committee stage. She called on Labour to "back any attempt to stop" the Bill until then, however she said she has not heard if the party is supporting her.
Asked about the appointment of former lord chief justice of Northern Ireland Sir Declan Morgan to chair the ICRIR, Baroness O'Loan said this should not have happened before the Bill passed.
