  • Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Chancellor of the Exchequer HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London, SW1A 2HQ
    Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Chancellor of the Exchequer HM Treasury 1 Horse Guards Road London, SW1A 2HQ 29th August 2019 Dear Sajid, We are writing to you as MPs with school sixth forms, sixth form colleges and FE colleges in our constituencies to ask that you prioritise investment in 16 to 18 education in the forthcoming spending round. The Institute for Fiscal Studies reports that education funding for 16 to 18 year olds “has seen the biggest squeeze of all stages of education for young people in recent years”. This is having a serious impact on students. A recent survey of schools and colleges for the Raise the Rate campaign found that: • 78% have reduced student support services or extra-curricular activities as a result of funding pressures – with significant cuts to mental health support, employability skills and careers advice • 51% of schools and colleges have dropped courses in modern foreign languages, with A levels in German, French and Spanish the main casualties • 38% have dropped STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths) courses The underinvestment in sixth form education is bad for students, bad for social mobility and bad for the economy. A central aim of the Industrial Strategy is to help young people to develop the skills they need to do the high-paid, high-skilled jobs of the future. The post-Brexit economy will be driven by leaders, scientists, technicians, engineers and others that will all pass through the pivotal phase of 16 to 18 education, so we must ensure that it is properly funded. We urge you to use the spending review to implement the first recommendation in A ten-year plan for school and college funding - the report published by the Education Committee in July - which is to “urgently address underfunding in further education by increasing the base rate from £4,000 to at least £4,760, rising in line with inflation.” This is the only way to ensure that schools and colleges can increase student services to minimum required levels, protect minority subjects and reverse the decline in extra-curricular activities and work experience.

  • Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for the Home Department By
    HOUSE OF COMMONS Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP Secretary of State for the Home Department By email April 2019 Dear Home Secretary We write as members representing our Muslim constituents to urge the early release of the very welcome additional funding you have announced for security at places of worship. You will recall the matter was raised in Home Office questions on Monday 1 April. Following the appalling attack in Christchurch last month, we have been speaking to our local mosques, and they are understandably extremely concerned about security, particularly with the approach of the Holy Month of Ramadan, when the community will be highly visible. Many of our constituents will be attending late- night prayers during this month, and feel especially vulnerable when out late in the evening. While the new funding will make a difference, it is therefore imperative that it is released as a matter of urgency, and that application processes are kept as simple and clear as possible, in order that measures can be taken to improve security in good time before Ramadan. We would very much appreciate an early opportunity to meet you to discuss how this could best be facilitated, and look forward to hearing from you in the very near future. Yours sincerely Kate Green MP Rt Hon Anna Soubry MP, Chair, APPG on British Muslims Wes Streeting MP, Co-chair, APPG on British Muslims Naz Shah MP, Vice-chair, APPG on British Muslims Debbie Abrahams MP Rt Hon Dame Margaret Hodge MP Rushanara Ali MP Kate Hollern MP Dr Rosena Allin-Khan MP Eddie Hughes MP Jonathan Ashworth MP Dr Rupa Huq MP Ian Austin MP Imran Hussain MP Rt.

  • UK Parliamentary Select Committees 2020 a Cicero/AMO Analysis Cicero/AMO / March 2020
    / UK Parliamentary Select Committees 2020 A Cicero/AMO Analysis Cicero/AMO / March 2020 / Cicero/AMO / 1 / / Contents Foreword 3 Treasury Select Committee 4 Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy Committee 6 Committee on the Future Relationship with the European Union 8 International Trade Committee 10 Home Affairs Committee 12 Transport Committee 14 Environmental Audit Committee 16 About Cicero/AMO 19 Foreword After December’s General Election, the House of Commons Select Committees have now been reconstituted. Cicero/AMO is pleased to share with you our analysis of the key Select Committees, including a look at their Chairs, members, the ‘ones to watch’ and their likely priorities. Select Committees – made up of backbench MPs – are charged with scrutinising Government departments and specific policy areas. They have become an increasingly important part of the parliamentary infrastructure, and never more so than in the last Parliament, where the lack of Government majority and party splits over Brexit allowed Select Committees to provide an authoritative form of Government scrutiny. However, this new Parliament looks very different. The large majority afforded to Boris Johnson in the election and the resulting Labour leadership contest give rise to a number of questions over Select Committee influence. Will the Government take Select Committee recommendations seriously as they form policy, or – without the need to keep every backbencher on side - will they feel at liberty to disregard the input of Committees? Will the Labour Party regroup when a new Leader is in place and provide a more effective Opposition or will a long period of navel-gazing leave space for Select Committees to fill this void? While Select Committees’ ability to effectively keep Government in check remains unclear, they will still be able to influence the media narrative around their chosen areas of inquiry.

  • Parliaments and the Pandemic (PDF)
    Parliaments and the Pandemic Study of Parliament Group January 2021 Preface The Study of Parliament Group (SPG) was formed in 1964. It arose following the publication of Bernard Crick’s seminal book, 'The Reform of Parliament'. A senior clerk in the House of Commons, Michael Ryle, impressed by the work, but feeling that the author may have benefited from more informed knowledge of the actual operation of parliament, contacted Crick. Both felt that meetings between academics and clerks may be of mutual benefit and, with Sir Edward Fellowes, former Clerk of the House of Commons, they sent a memorandum to various parliamentary officers and academics with an interest in parliament. A meeting was organised in October 1964 at which it was agreed to form a body to promote understanding of the way parliament worked and how it may be more effective. The Study of Parliament Group was born. Since its formation, the Group has held conferences and seminars, formed various working groups and been responsible for publishing books and articles. Submissions have also been made to various parliamentary committees, not least those concerned with procedure and reform. The membership has expanded over the years, encompassing clerks from other legislatures in the United Kingdom as well as some with a scholarly interest in parliament without themselves being academics. To encourage frank exchanges of views, MPs and journalists are excluded from membership, though they are regular speakers at Group events. Publications have included substantial volumes such as 'The House of Commons in the Twentieth Century' (1979), 'The New Select Committees' (revised edn.

  • Register of Interests of Members' Secretaries And
    REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 30 May 2018) 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.
