In Parliament

Greg Hands M.P. in the House of CommonsIn October 2011 Greg was appointed an Assistant Government Whip. The job of the Whip is to ensure the delivery of Government business in Parliament through votes or ‘divisions’.  They keep their MP colleagues up to date on legislative business and inform the Government of backbench opinion.

Government Whips are not permitted to speak in House of Commons debates or table Parliamentary Questions.  However, to ensure your voice is heard in Westminster Greg continues to raise constituency concerns directly by writing to and speaking to Ministers about local and national issues.
