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.
- Dr Ruth Fox – Director of the Hansard Society
- Dr Hannah White – Director of the Institute for Government
- Daniel Greenberg – Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards
- Alistair Burt – former Conservative MP and minister
Chair: Professor Meg Russell – Director of the Constitution Unit
