This report from UK think tank the Constitution Unit aims to help MPs navigate their core constitutional functions.
MPs hold a huge and important job, and one which is central to the UK’s constitutional system. But they also have busy lives and numerous pressing demands on their time, which can make it easy to lose sight of the bigger picture.
The Constitution Unit has today published MPs’ Role in the Constitution: A Practical Guide by Professor Meg Russell and Lisa James.
The guide — published in collaboration with the Institute for Government and Bingham Centre for the Rule of Law — aims to help MPs navigate their core constitutional functions.
