How to be an effective select committee chair
Manage episode 447452142 series 2840877
This autumn the House of Commons has elected a raft of new select committee chairs who will play an important role in holding the government to account over the coming years. But there are many ways to chair a select committee, and new chairs will need to think carefully about what they want to achieve and how to go about it.
This webinar brings together three senior former MPs and select committee chairs to discuss their experiences, and their reflections on how to use the role most effectively.
Speakers:
- Baroness (Margaret) Hodge of Barking – former chair of the House of Commons Public Accounts Committee, Labour peer, and former Labour MP
- Sir Charles Walker – former chair of the House of Commons Procedure Committee and Administration Committee, and former Conservative MP
- Joanna Cherry KC – former chair of the Joint Committee on Human Rights and former SNP MP
Chair: Lisa James – Senior Research Fellow at the Constitution Unit
