Register of Interests of Members' Secretaries And REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 2 November 2017) 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 £380 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 £380 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. Complaints Complaints, whether from Members, the public or anyone else alleging that a staff member is in breach of the rules governing the Register, should in the first instance be sent to the Registrar of Members’ Financial Interests in the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Where possible the Registrar will seek to resolve the complaint informally. In more serious cases the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may undertake a formal investigation and either rectify the matter or refer it to the Committee on Standards. Under the rectification procedure a late entry may be printed in bold italics in the Register for twelve months from its first appearance. Information and advice about the Register and the rules governing it The Register can be viewed at www.parliament.uk by looking under ‘Registers of Interests’ in the A-Z Index on the home page there.

  • Welsh Government Steps in After Tory Ministers Refuse to Support Ruabon Station
    1 02.03.2020 Thank you to Councillor Dana Davis for sending in the following report for the Ruabon News Letter Welsh Government steps in after Tory ministers refuse to support Ruabon Station - again! The Welsh Labour Government could be set to pay for access improvements to Ruabon Station after the UK Government announced it had rejected a bid for crucial investment for a second time. Within hours of learning that the Department for Transport (DfT) had rejected the latest funding bid, Welsh Government ministers declared they would step in and explore taking forward the project alone. Responsibility for track, stations and signalling is with the UK Government, who choose where to invest. In the past five years their spending has led to a £1bn under-investment in Wales, something the Labour First Minister Mark Drakeford has described as the ‘Tory Great Train Robbery’. In an attempt to incentivise the UK Government to invest in Welsh stations, including Ruabon, the Welsh Government has offered to match-fund vital upgrades. However, UK Conservative ministers today once again refused to pay for improvements that they are responsible for. Cllr Dana Davies has been involved in the campaign for improved disabled access at Ruabon Station and has worked alongside the Friends of Ruabon and former MP Susan Elan Jones to fight for step-free access at both platforms. Cllr Davies, who represents Ruabon on Wrexham Council, accused the Tory Government at Westminster of short-changing people in the area and failing to match the Welsh Government’s ambitions to improve the station. She said: “In 2017 our MP Susan Elan Jones presented a petition to Parliament on behalf of the Friends of Ruabon urging action from the UK Government.

  • Who Runs Wales? 2014
    Who runs Wales? 2014 A lost decade - no change International Women’s Day In 1910, the International Conference of Working Women voted on a proposal to create an International Women’s Day. This suggested that every year there should be a global celebration to pay tribute to the role of women in society and push for further social change, including getting more women into public office. The Conference, made up of over 100 women from 17 different countries, unanimously agreed the proposal and International Women’s Day was born. The first International Women’s Day took place in 1911. Meetings were held across the world. The largest street demonstration was made up of 30,000 women. Every year since 1911 there have been celebrations across the world. This year, events will be held from Austria to Australia, India to Ireland, South Korea to South Africa and many other places around the world to celebrate the achievements of women and aimed at getting more women into positions of power and influence.
