INTRODUCE WORTHWHILE CONTROL OF LOBBYISTS

Ensure that Lord Brookes' Bill gets a fair wind in Parliament

Why is this important?

The attempt to control lobbyists enacted under the Cameron government was a travesty of the reforms proposed by a Select Committee of the Commons. Instead of restraining the activities of lobbyists on behalf of major companies, the new law only restricted the activities of firms which offered their services to commercial enterprises while simultaneously placing heavy burdens on charities, trade unions and NGOs.
