Queen's Speech fails to include register lobbyists PDF Print E-mail

26th May 2010 


This weeks’s Queen’s Speech made no mention of the Coalition Agreement’s pledge to introduce a statutory register of lobbyists. While the Alliance for Lobbying Transparency welcomes the commitment to a register, we are very concerned that the failure to include it in the Queen’s Speech will lead to delays in bringing forward the necessary legislation.We will be maintaining pressure on the government to bring forward detailed plans for a statutory register and will be continuing the campaign at a grassroots level.ALT will be publishing its own detailed statement on what an effective statutory register needs to include.
