Welcome to the public consultation website for the Committee’s inquiry into the modernisation of the House of Commons…
“The Select Committee on the Modernisation of the House of Commons wants to hear your views about how Parliament should be modernised. The comments made in this online forum will feed directly into the Committee's current enquiry -'Connecting Parliament with the Public'. The key issues are central to an effective democracy - access, information, communication and understanding of parliament. The consultation is moderated by the Hansard Society, an independent, non-partisan organisation and will run for four weeks starting 1 March 2004. It is your Parliament, so make sure you have your say. ”
