BRIEFING PAPER Number 02383, 15 August 2019 UK parliamentary by- Compiled by elections since 1945 Sarah Priddy This list notes the number of UK by-elections by session since 1945-46 (Table 1) and gives the results for by-elections since 2005 (Table 2). Note: This chart is available in the Excel spreadsheet which can be downloaded from the landing page for this briefing. When do by-elections happen? A by-election occurs when a seat in the House of Commons becomes vacant during the lifetime of a Parliament (ie between general elections), because the sitting MP dies, resigns, is elevated to the peerage, or becomes ineligible to sit for some other reason. There have been four by-elections in the current 2017 Parliament. Further information on by-elections The by-elections page of the Parliament website provides detailed information on results, including the number of votes cast and percentage share. See the Commons briefing on UK Election Statistics: 1918-2010 for a list of all by- elections in Great Britain and Northern Ireland. www.parliament.uk/commons-library | intranet.parliament.uk/commons-library | [email protected] | @commonslibrary Table 1.

    Parliamentary Questions As Instruments of Substantive Representation: Visible Minorities in the UK House of Commons, 2005-2010

    Parliamentary Questions as Instruments of Substantive Representation: Visible Minorities in the UK House of Commons, 2005-2010 Thomas Saalfeld University of Bamberg Faculty of Social Sciences, Economics and Business Administration Feldkirchenstr. 21 96045 Bamberg Germany Email [email protected] Abstract: Little is known about the parliamentary behaviour of immigrant-origin legislators in European democracies. Much of the literature is normative, theoretical and speculative. Where it exists, empirical scholarship tends to be based on qualitative interviews, anecdotal evidence and generalisations based on very few cases. Whether the growing descriptive representation of minority-ethnic legislators has any implications for the quality of substantive representation, remains an open question. Parliamentary questions can be used as a valid and reliable indicator of substantive representation in democratic parliaments. This study is based on a new data set of over 16,000 parliamentary questions tabled by 50 British backbench Members of Parliament (MPs) in the 2005-2010 Parliament. It includes the 16 immigrant-origin MPs with a ‘visible- minority’ background. The most innovative feature of its research design is the use of a matching contrast group of non-minority MPs. Based on a series of multivariate models, it is found that all British MPs sampled for this study – irrespective of their ethnic status – respond to electoral incentives arising from the socio-demographic composition of their constituencies: Minority and non-minority MPs alike ask more questions relating to minority concerns, if they represent constituencies with a high share of non-White residents. Controlling for that general effect, however, MPs with a visible-minority status ask significantly more questions about ethnic diversity and equality issues.
