Restrictions On Commercial Lobbyists

EDM number 6 in 1997-98, proposed by Paul Flynn on 14/05/1997.

That this House should impose new restrictions on the activities of potentially-corrupting commercial lobbyists in influencing parliamentary decisions, in order to improve access to Government and honourable Members by those groups and individuals who cannot afford to employ lobbying organisations.

This motion has been signed by a total of 26 MPs.
