Download or read book Conduct of Mr George Osborne written by Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Committee on Standards and Privileges and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2008 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards submitted a memorandum on his investigation of a complaint that Mr George Osborne failed to register certain donations in the Register of Members' Interests. These donations were made to the Conservative Party and used by the Party to support the cost of running his office as Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer. It became clear that many other members of the Shadow Cabinet used funds in this way, so this complaint has ramifications well beyond one entry in the Register. Mr Osborne believes that financial support received through a party to support work as a Shadow Minister does not constitute 'financial or material support as a Member of Parliament'. The Commissioner finds that there is no logical reason to differentiate between the different capacities in which MPs receive financial support, and upholds the complaint, but does not believe Mr Osborne should be criticised as the area was in need of clarification. He makes five recommendations which should regularise the position, and members of the Shadow Cabinet are given four weeks from publication of this report to amend their Register entries. The Committee agrees with the Commissioner's findings and recommendations.

Download or read book Mr Harry Cohen written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Committee on Standards and Privileges and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2010-01-22 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complaint was made that over a five-year period the Member for Leyton and Wanstead, Harry Cohen, had claimed more than £100,000 against the Additional Costs Allowance (ACA) for his designated second home in his constituency, having identified as his main home a house in Colchester, Essex. It was also pointed out that there were entries by Mr Cohen in the Register of Members' Financial Interests to the effect that he owned and in one year received rental income from a property in Colchester. The Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards investigated (his report appears as an appendix in this document). Mrs Cohen's ill-health meant that from April 2004 their constituency home became their main home, and the Commissioner finds that Mr Cohen was in breach of the rules in identifying Colchester as the main home. The Committee agrees with the Commissioner that Mr Cohen should have continued to register the rental income from his Colchester house, following the initial registration in 2001 and notes he has now complied with registration requirements. The Committee also agrees that Mr Cohen was in serious breach of the rules in claiming Parliamentary allowances against the constituency property which was in effect the main home. Mr Cohen should apologise with a personal statement on the floor of the House and the full amount of resettlement grant (£65,000) which would be payable when he leaves the House (at the end of this Parliament) should be withheld.
Download or read book Ethical World of British MPs written by Maureen Mancuso and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1995-02-10 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on extensive personal interviews with more than one hundred MPs, Mancuso's is the first investigation of British legislative ethics to take a systematic approach. She identifies significant divergence in ethical attitudes and divides MPs into four types: the Puritans, who stake out the moral high ground; the Servants, who conform to the traditional ideal of the MP as public-spirited constituency advocate; the Muddlers, who are not bothered by personal conflicts of interest; and the Entrepreneurs, who use their position to achieve any end not explicitly prohibited. The implications of this unexpectedly diverse ethical ecosystem are explored along with various possibilities for reform. All those interested in the British Parliament and parliamentarians will find this book, with its unique insights into Westminster, essential reading.

This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on the Design of Cooperative Systems (COOP 2014). The conference is a venue for multidisciplinary research contributing to the design, assessment and analysis of cooperative systems and their integration in organizations, public venues, and everyday life. COOP emerged from the European tradition of Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) and Cognitive Ergonomics as practiced in France. These proceedings are a collection of 28 papers reflecting the variety of research activities in the field, as well as an increasing interest in investigating the use and design of ICT in all aspects of everyday life and society, and not merely in the workplace. The papers represent a variety of research topics, from healthcare to sustainable mobility to disaster response, in settings from all over the world. For the first time, the proceedings include papers presented in an Early-Career Researchers Track which was organized in order to give young researchers the opportunity to discuss their work with an international community. This collection of papers provides a picture of new developments and classic topics of research around cooperative systems, based on the principle that a deep knowledge of cooperative practices is a key to understanding technology impacts and producing quality designs. The articles presented will appeal to researchers and practitioners alike, as they combine an understanding of the nature of work with the possibilities offered by novel digital technologies.
