Citizens Convention (Accountability And Ethics) Bill
EDM number 1573 in 2008-09, proposed by Martin Caton on 02/06/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Members of Parliament, Parliament and Parliamentary procedure.
That this House is concerned at the current crisis of confidence regarding the political system; maintains that electors and not just politicians should be involved in initiating change; therefore supports the Citizens Convention (Accountability and Ethics) Bill; and believes that this measure should become law expeditiously and so calls for sufficient additional time to be made available in the House to achieve that end.
This motion has been signed by a total of 155 MPs.
