  • Introduction to Staff Register
    REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 15 October 2020) INTRODUCTION Purpose and Form of the Register In accordance with Resolutions made by the House of Commons on 17 December 1985 and 28 June 1993, holders of photo-identity passes as Members’ secretaries or research assistants are in essence required to register: ‘Any occupation or employment for which you receive over £410 from the same source in the course of a calendar year, if that occupation or employment is in any way advantaged by the privileged access to Parliament afforded by your pass. Any gift (eg jewellery) or benefit (eg hospitality, services) that you receive, if the gift or benefit in any way relates to or arises from your work in Parliament and its value exceeds £410 in the course of a calendar year.’ In Section 1 of the Register entries are listed alphabetically according to the staff member’s surname. Section 2 contains exactly the same information but entries are instead listed according to the sponsoring Member’s name. Administration and Inspection of the Register The Register is compiled and maintained by the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Anyone whose details are entered on the Register is required to notify that office of any change in their registrable interests within 28 days of such a change arising. An updated edition of the Register is published approximately every 6 weeks when the House is sitting. Changes to the rules governing the Register are determined by the Committee on Standards in the House of Commons, although where such changes are substantial they are put by the Committee to the House for approval before being implemented.

  • UK and Global Advocacy Quarterly Roundup Quarter 2 - 2021
    UK and Global Advocacy Quarterly Roundup Quarter 2 - 2021 Introduction: In Quarter 2 of 2021 the Global Advocacy Team have continued to engage in issues that matter to Association members including tax, audit reform and corporate governance, economic recovery and upskilling. In the UK the country is getting ready to reopen on the 19th of July with most Covid-19 legal resections planned to be removed in place of non-mandatory guidance. However, even with these businesses are still facing uncertainty and the UK has rising case numbers that could mean restrictions are restored or affect consumer behavior and demand. Across the globe the picture for businesses is still uncertain with nations at different stages of their vaccination role out and across this Quarter facing new waves of Covid-19 and government responses to that. A continued focus of our advocacy efforts this quarter has been on economic recovery and will continue to be throughout the year. Below, we outline our activities in Q2 of 2021. International Advocacy Q2 2021 Activity June May April 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 Events Consultations Political Meetings Advocacy Media Activity Letters Briefings International Advocacy Q2 2021 Activity Briefings Letters Advocacy Media Activity Political Meetings Consultations Events 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% April May June Association Letters and Briefings to Parliament The Association continues to call on Government to put in place measures to drive long term economic recovery from the global pandemic. We are advocating for policies that will rebuild confidence, create jobs and allow businesses to look ahead with a degree of certainty.
