<title>Redundancy Pay For Staff Of Hon. Members</title>
<proposer id="10528">Mohammad Sarwar</proposer>
<date>2010-01-27</date>
<text>That this House is concerned by the understandable anxiety caused to staff of hon. Members by recommendation 19 of the report of the Committee on Standards in Public Life on parliamentary allowances and expenses; notes that the redundancy arrangements available to staff of hon. Members are a fraction of those available to staff employed directly by the House; and calls on the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority to meet regularly with the Unite Parliamentary Staff Branch to ensure that any implementation of the recommendation results in improved redundancy arrangements for staff of hon. Members.</text>
