  • Register of Interests of Members’ Secretaries and Research Assistants
    REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 11 July 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.

  • Title, Initial, Surname
    Information Classification: CONTROLLED Public Bill Committee House of Commons Your ref: London My ref: KK/240620 SW1A 0AA Date: 24 June 2020 By email: Direct to members of the Public Bill Committee Dear Members of Public Bill Committee On behalf of Cornwall Council, I write in respect of the Parliamentary Consistencies Bill 2019-21. Cornwall is a historic nation, with its own culture, traditions and language, while the Cornish are recognised as a national minority. This places many obligations on the UK Government and, with this in mind, it is my hope that Members of Parliament will wish to ensure that the Cornish border which has been in existence for more than one thousand years is respected in all future boundary reviews and no seats will be created that span Devon and Cornwall. The Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Act was passed in 2011 and put in place a process to reduce the number of MPs to 600 and ensure that all seats (except for four named examples) would be within 5% of the average UK electorate. This meant that it was statistically impossible to ensure that all Cornish constituencies would lie entirely within the boundaries of Cornwall (and the Isles of Scilly). When the Boundary Commission for England published its proposals for new constituency boundaries, it inevitably included a parliamentary seat that straddled Devon and Cornwall. This caused considerable upset in Cornwall. Hundreds and hundreds of people opposed the new seat and there was even a protest at Polson Bridge on the Cornish border. Since the Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Act (2011) came into being, there has been a significant development that requires consideration.

  • Urgent Open Letter to Jesse Norman Mp on the Loan Charge
    URGENT OPEN LETTER TO JESSE NORMAN MP ON THE LOAN CHARGE Dear Minister, We are writing an urgent letter to you in your new position as the Financial Secretary to the Treasury. On the 11th April at the conclusion of the Loan Charge Debate the House voted in favour of the motion. The Will of the House is clearly for an immediate suspension of the Loan Charge and an independent review of this legislation. Many Conservative MPs have criticised the Loan Charge as well as MPs from other parties. As you will be aware, there have been suicides of people affected by the Loan Charge. With the huge anxiety thousands of people are facing, we believe that a pause and a review is vital and the right and responsible thing to do. You must take notice of the huge weight of concern amongst MPs, including many in your own party. It was clear in the debate on the 4th and the 11th April, that the Loan Charge in its current form is not supported by a majority of MPs. We urge you, as the Rt Hon Cheryl Gillan MP said, to listen to and act upon the Will of the House. It is clear from their debate on 29th April that the House of Lords takes the same view. We urge you to announce a 6-month delay today to give peace of mind to thousands of people and their families and to allow for a proper review. Ross Thomson MP John Woodcock MP Rt Hon Sir Edward Davey MP Jonathan Edwards MP Ruth Cadbury MP Tulip Siddiq MP Baroness Kramer Nigel Evans MP Richard Harrington MP Rt Hon Sir Vince Cable MP Philip Davies MP Lady Sylvia Hermon MP Catherine West MP Rt Hon Dame Caroline

  • Letter to Sheryll Murray MP (South East Cornwall)
    KEEP CORNWALL WHOLE Sheryll Murray MP The Parade Liskeard Cornwall PL14 6AF Dear Mrs Murray Cornwall and the Parliamentary Boundary Review I am writing to express my strong opposition to the present proposal for a “Devonwall” parliamentary constituency, which would breach Cornwall’s historic territoriality. I fully understand that the Boundary Commission’s approach to the Review is being driven by legislation which (i) does not recognise Cornwall as a distinct political unit and (ii) specifies that electorates for individual parliamentary seats must lie within the range of 71,031 and 78,507 voters, making it a statistical impossibility for the Commission to propose five whole seats for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly. The prospect of a cross-Tamar constituency is causing great upset across Cornwall and I would therefore request that the UK Government amend the Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Act 2011 (the Act) to ensure Cornish constituencies remain entirely within the boundaries of Cornwall (and the Isles of Scilly). As you will be aware, Cornwall is a Celtic nation with its own distinct identity, culture and language – just like Scotland and Wales. The border between Cornwall and England has been in place since the early tenth century and, I believe, this should have been respected by the Act, just as the borders between England and Scotland, and England and Wales, were safeguarded through the legislation. Cornwall also has a unique constitutional position which sets it apart from the rest of the United Kingdom. It is also my view that any failure to treat Cornwall as a distinct political unit would undermine the design and provision of public services that specifically meet the needs of Cornwall and its communities.
