Proceeding contribution from Charles Walker (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Parliamentary Standards Bill.


Parliamentary Standards Bill

I have a problem with IPSA. What would happen if the compliance failure was IPSA's failure? If a Member made a claim in good faith and IPSA got it wrong, the Member would carry the can for IPSA. Over the past few months, a lot of Members have carried the can for compliance failures that were out of their hands.
