Sir Christopher Kelly's Report
EDM number 155 in 2009-10, proposed by Alistair Carmichael on 23/11/2009.
Categorised under the topics of Devolution and Members of Parliament.
That this House welcomes the report from Sir Christopher Kelly looking into hon. Members' expenses entitled Supporting Parliament, Safeguarding the Taxpayer; recognises the wide cross-party support for Sir Christopher's recommendations; notes and agrees with recommendation 40 in the Kelly Report which states that `the practice of permitting a Westminster MP simultaneously to sit in a devolved legislature should be brought to an end'; further notes with disappointment that no mention of the report and recommendations was made in the recent Queen's Speech; and calls on the Government to bring forward primary legislation where needed and implement the Kelly Report as soon as possible.
This motion has been signed by a total of 14 MPs.
