“Members Only? Parliament in the Public
Eye”(Hansard Report (2005) Recommendations)
“A parliament that involves and engages the public more effectively in
its work, and where the public can exercise real influence, would
respond to such increased attention with improved performance..
Parliament needs to reassert itself, to reconnect with the public and
become what itself has always striven to be – the fountain of our
democratic freedoms. Parliament is currently failing in its democratic
duty.”“Essentials of Modern Parliamentary Communications”:
1. Parliamentary communications services should be established
2. Joint Committee of both houses should be responsible
3. Communications strategy for the Parliament should be adopted
4. Mechanisms for public input should be built in.
5. Accessibility revolution: use of the internet is critical!!
6. Mechanism for regular evaluation against targets is required.
7. Long-term budgetary commitment is needed.
