  • A Guide to the Government for BIA Members
    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 26 June 2020 This is a briefing for BIA members on the Government led by Boris Johnson and key ministerial appointments for our sector after the December 2019 General Election and February 2020 Cabinet reshuffle. Following the Conservative Party’s compelling victory, the Government now holds a majority of 80 seats in the House of Commons. The life sciences sector is high on the Government’s agenda and Boris Johnson has pledged to make the UK “the leading global hub for life sciences after Brexit”. With its strong majority, the Government has the power to enact the policies supportive of the sector in the Conservatives 2019 Manifesto. All in all, this indicates a positive outlook for life sciences during this Government’s tenure.

  • 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.

  • British Politics and Policy at LSE: Under New Leadership: Keir Starmer’S Party Conference Speech and the Embrace of Personality Politics Page 1 of 2
    British Politics and Policy at LSE: Under new leadership: Keir Starmer’s party conference speech and the embrace of personality politics Page 1 of 2 Under new leadership: Keir Starmer’s party conference speech and the embrace of personality politics Eunice Goes analyses Keir Starmer’s first conference speech as Labour leader. She argues that the keynote address clarified the distinctiveness of his leadership style, and presented Starmer as a serious Prime Minister-in-waiting. Keir Starmer used his virtual speech to the 2020 party conference to tell voters that Labour is now ‘under a new leadership’ that is ‘serious about winning’ the next election. He also made clear that he is ready to do what it takes to take Labour ‘out of the shadows’, even if that involves embracing personality politics and placing patriotism at the centre of the party’s message. Starmer has been Labour leader for only five months but he has already established a reputation as a credible and competent leader of the opposition. Opinion polls routinely put him ahead of the Prime Minister Boris Johnson in the credibility stakes, and the media has often praised his competence and famous forensic approach to opposition politics. This is a welcome new territory for Labour – Starmer’s predecessors, Jeremy Corbyn and Ed Miliband, struggled to endear themselves to the average voter – so it is no surprise that he is making the most of it. In fact, judging by some killer lines used in this speech, the Labour leader is enjoying his new role as the most popular politician in British politics.

  • Cabinet Committees
    Published on The Institute for Government (https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk) Home > Whitehall Explained > Cabinet committees Cabinet committees What are cabinet committees? Cabinet committees are groups of ministers that can “take collective decisions that are binding across government”.[1] They are partly designed to reduce the burden on the full cabinet by allowing smaller groups of ministers to take decisions on specific policy areas. These committees have been around in some form since the early 20th century. The government can also create other types of ministerial committees. In June 2015, David Cameron introduced implementation taskforces, designed “to monitor and drive delivery of the government’s most important cross-cutting priorities”[2], although these were discontinued when Boris Johnson became prime minister in July 2019. In March 2020, Boris Johnson announced the creation of four new ‘implementation committees’[3] in response to the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic. These four committees focused on healthcare, the general public sector, economic and business, and international response. The four committees were chaired by Health Secretary Matt Hancock, Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Michael Gove, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak and Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab respectively. Each committee chair fed into a daily ‘C-19 meeting’ of the prime minister, key ministers and senior officials, to discuss Covid-19. These ‘implementation committees’ were replaced by two new Covid-19 related cabinet committees in June 2020 – ‘COVID-19 Strategy’ and ‘COVID-19 Operations’. On 13 May 2020, the Cabinet Office also announced the creation of five new ‘roadmap taskforces’[4] – committees intended to help guide certain sectors of the UK economy out of the Covid-19 induced lockdown.

With 311 MPs, the Conservative Government does not have a parliamentary majority and the new Prime Minister may also have to contend with a number of his own backbenchers who are openly opposed to his premiership and approach to Brexit. It is currently being assumed that he is continuing the confidence and supply deal with the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). If the DUP will support the Government in key votes, such as on his Brexit deal (if one emerges), the Queen's Speech and Budgets, Boris Johnson will a working majority of 1.
