Pub Bill Workshop – Localism and Decentralisation
The Houses of Parliament is providing a free workshop for groups and organisations interested in issues relating to localism and decentralisation, on how to engage with Parliament’s scrutiny of legislation. The event is being run as part of Parliament’s efforts to encourage more groups to engage with legislative scrutiny and will be run by Parliamentary staff. It will be strictly non-partisan.
The workshop will include information on:
- submitting evidence to a Public Bill Committee in the Commons
- engaging with members of the Lords as they consider a Bill
- accessing independent House of Commons Library research
- tracking the progress of a Bill online
- understanding secondary legislation
Experts from the Houses of Parliament will be on hand to answer any questions on the parliamentary scrutiny of a Bill.
The workshop is free to attend, and open to any organisation with an interest in localism and decentralisation. However, places are limited so please call e-mail parliamentaryoutreach@parliament.uk to book a place. Please note that places are limited to two per organisation.
For further information on the workshop, please call Daniel Wood on 079 174 88839 or Matt Ringer on 020 7219 4623.
