Thursday 24th April 2025

Asked by: Danny Chambers (Liberal Democrat - Winchester)

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what discussions he has had with Cabinet colleagues on improving public engagement with politics.

Answered by Ellie Reeves - Minister without Portfolio (Cabinet Office)

Public engagement and participation are vital to the health of our democracy, and the Government will continue to support the public to make their voices heard.

Engagement with the political process must be built on trust. The Government is committed to returning to a politics of service, for example by exploring further tightening of the rules on MPs' outside interests via the House of Commons Modernisation Committee.
