Hear David Howarth give lecture on Parliamentary reform

By | Thu 18th February 2010 - 3:50 pm

As party of the Parliamentary Reform Lecture Series organised by the Hansard Society, David Howarth MP (Liberal Democrat Shadow Secretary of State for Justice and Shadow Solicitor General) will give a talk examining the Liberal Democrat’s priorities for reform of Parliament.

It’s at 6pm on March 15th. It’s being held at the Houses of Parliament and is open to the public. Please email [email protected] to register.

The talk is one of a series the Hansard Society is running (one each from each of the main parties) to draw attention to the fact that there is still much progress to be made in the area of parliamentary reform. The three lectures will also be published with an introduction from Dr. Ruth Fox, Director of the Hansard Society Parliament & Government Programme, laying out the history of reforms and setting the scene for the lectures.
