  • 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.

This is something of concern across the House. It is Thursday 26 September 2019 not a party political matter and, certainly as far as I am concerned, it should not be in any way, at any time, to any degree a matter for partisan point scoring. It is The House met at half-past Nine o’clock about something bigger than an individual, an individual party or an individual political or ideological viewpoint. Let us treat of it on that basis.

Sarah Vero and Mili collection of 130 signatures of MPs for EDM 1057 which Patel were Branch Auditors, Chris Sweet edited the called for more consultation of the Branch by the House newsletter, David Seaton became the first Union Authorities. At a rally at Labour Party Conference staff, Learning Rep and Cat Smith the first Environment Rep. MPs and Union officials such as Andrew Dodgshon called for voluntary recognition of the Branch by the House of Commons, all to no avail. In 2009 the PLP Liaison Committee was (again) reconstituted and over 750 researchers and 150 MPs and Ministers signed up to support of recognition, many of the signatures collected by Louise Haigh. The Branch argued that the House of Commons had defrauded staff of their right to collective bargaining by claiming not to be their employer, whilst having direct control over standard contracts, payscales, pensions etc. In April 2009 MPs voted to move to central employment of staff, with the Branch lobbying MPs to ensure the reforms included benefits for staff. The Branch made a submission to the inquiry into MPs’ expenses, arguing for reforms to the system of allowances to improve the conditions of employment of staff and increase transparency. On the 18th June 2009 the Branch celebrated its 25th anniversary with many of the original Branch members attending, and a new voluntary contract for Interns working for MPs was launched.

None the less, a significant number of homes and businesses in Cheltenham fall between two stools, being, apparently, not sufficiently rural for Fastershire Oral Answers to Questions to see fit to step in but too rural for commercial providers to consider it viable to extend broadband provision.
