Parliament and the pandemic: the legacy of Covid-19

Apr 27, 2021
01:04:26

The arrival of Covid-19 forced parliament to innovate rapidly and experiment with new ways of working. These had a dramatic impact on the way MPs and peers did their jobs – with implications for the effectiveness and inclusivity of our legislature. What innovations should be kept, what should be dropped and who should decide?

This event brought together an expert panel to discuss these important questions.

  • Tracey Crouch, MP for Chatham and Aylesford
  • Matthew Hamlyn, Strategic Director, Chamber Business Team at House of Commons
  • Philip Norton (Lord Norton of Louth), Professor of Government at the University of Hull and President of the Study of Parliament Group

The event was chaired by Dr Hannah White OBE, Deputy Director of the Institute for Government.
