Ban MP’s voting on motions if they have a vested interest in the outcome.
Debate whether MP’s should have the ability to vote on a motion that might materially benefit them. For example if an MP’s spouse benefitted from non-dom status, or benefitted from offshore trusts that might be banned by parliament.
It seems archaic and potentially corrupt that an MP can change or influence any law which could materially benefit them.
