    The Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for Home Affairs Home Office 2 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DF 15 March 2019 Dear

    The Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for Home Affairs Home Office 2 Marsham Street London SW1P 4DF 15 March 2019 Dear Home Secretary, Refugees (Family Reunion) (No. 2) Bill 2017-19 Almost a year ago, MPs from across the political spectrum united behind a common cause as they overwhelmingly voted to introduce a law that would help reunite refugee families. The current rules condemn child refugees, fleeing conflict and persecution, to live in the UK without their parents. It also prevents parents from bringing their children over the age of 18. At a time when refugees need their families the most, they are being forced to be without them indefinitely. They say a week is a long time in politics, but a year is a long time to wait. For refugee families it means a year of missed birthdays, Christmases, Mother’s Days, Father’s Day and Eids. We cannot let the urgent crowd out the important. We urge you to use your power to stop the delays on this Bill and allow it the necessary time to proceed and be debated. With your help we can bring families together. Yours sincerely, The Rt Hon Diane Abbott Dr Stella Creasy MP Mr Roger Godsiff MP MP Mr Martyn Day MP Mr Patrick Grady MP Ms Mhairi Black MP Mr Stephen Doughty MP Mr Neil Gray MP The Rt Hon Ian Blackford Dr David Drew MP Ms Margaret Greenwood MP MP Ms Rosie Duffield MP Ms Deidre Brock MP Ms Helen Hayes MP Mr Jonathan Edwards MP Mr Alan Brown MP Mr Drew Hendry MP Ms Vicky Foxcroft MP Ms Ruth Cadbury MP Ms Liz Kendall MP Ms Gill Furniss MP The Rt Hon Alistair Mr Afzal Khan MP Carmichael MP Mr Hugh Gaffney MP The Rt Hon David Lammy Mr Douglas Chapman MP Ms Ruth George MP MP Ms Joanna Cherry QC MP Mr Stephen Gethins MP Mr Chris Law MP Mr Ronnie Cowan MP Ms Patricia Gibson MP Ms Karen Lee MP Mr Neil Coyle MP Ms Preet Kaur Gill MP Mr David Linden MP Ms Angela Crawley MP Mr Angus MacNeil MP CC - The Rt Hon Andrea Leadsom MP - Leader of Mr Sandy Martin MP the House of Commons Mr Steve McCabe MP Ms Rebecca Harris MP - Ms Kerry McCarthy MP Lord Commissioner (HM Treasury) (Whip) Mr Stewart Malcolm McDonald MP Mr Stuart C.

  • 20Th May 2020 Dear Mr Speaker, Cc: House of Commons

    20Th May 2020 Dear Mr Speaker, Cc: House of Commons

    20th May 2020 Dear Mr Speaker, cc: House of Commons Commission As parliament considers returning to Westminster, we urge you to ensure all citizens can continue to be represented in parliament through ensuring no MP is unable to participate due to health or caring commitments that have arisen as a direct result of the ongoing coronavirus crisis. We welcome the introduction of hybrid parliament to ensure the continuation of parliamentary scrutiny during lockdown. This is critical to a healthy, legitimate democracy. We also recognise the importance of restoring all forms of parliamentary scrutiny including Westminster hall debates and interventions as well as enabling the participation of more MPs in debates, and the challenges in doing so whilst maintaining a safe workspace for all concerned. As social distancing measures are reduced in a phased manner this summer, we are concerned that there is a risk of creating two tiers of MPs- those who are able to attend and those who mostly cannot given the ongoing challenges of lockdown and their own personal circumstances. Given what is known about the nature of this virus, and who is a high risk, it is likely that this will mean those MPs who are BAME MPs, older MPs or MPs who are pregnant will be disproportionately restricted. Government advice also recognises that those with caring responsibilities, those with childcare responsibilities, those who rely on public transport, and those who are shielding, may not be able to return to the workplace. Not only must parliament lead by example by acknowledging how these issues affect all those who work in Westminster and promoting working remotely where possible, it must also make provision for those who would be breaching public health advice by returning to parliament, or are unable to do so due to caring responsibilities.
