The House of Lords Select Committee

The House of Lords Select Committee on the Constitution reported on the Legislative Process: The Passage of Bills Through Parliament in its 24th Report of Session 2017-19 (published 8 July 2019 – HL Paper 393); the Report quotes my oral evidence to the Committee in a number of places, including my proposal for a new kind of intervener status on Bills to allow stakeholder groups a real opportunity to influence the passage of legislation directly, without having to risk the Chinese Whispers game of briefing MPs and peers.
