Listen "Priorities for new MPs' induction in the next parliament"
Episode Synopsis
Whatever the result of the upcoming general election, a large number of new MPs will enter the House of Commons. A well-designed induction programme will be crucial for helping them to find their feet and become effective parliamentarians. So what do new MPs need to know about their roles in parliament and beyond? How might this differ from in the past, and how might such induction best be delivered? We discussed these questions with experts from the Hansard Society and Institute for Government, the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards, and a former MP.SpeakersDr Ruth Fox – Director of the Hansard SocietyDr Hannah White – Director of the Institute for GovernmentDaniel Greenberg – Parliamentary Commissioner for StandardsAlistair Burt – former Conservative MP and ministerChair: Professor Meg Russell – Director of the Constitution Unit
