Exclude MPs from parliamentary business where they have declarable interests

Petition Details

Introduce rules that would prevent an MP from participating in debates, votes or committees where they have declared a financial interest. This could help prevent conflicts between their personal and political interests.

Additional Information

MPs can currently participate in parliamentary business, including debating and voting on legislation when they have a direct interest in companies or industries that will benefit from this.
