Petition Keep virtual parliament options for MPs who are shielding or isolating
Please reconsider the proposed abandonment of the current arrangements for remote working by MPs and enable full remote participation for as long as the coronavirus pandemic continues to be a public health problem.
More details
The plan to drop remote voting and video participation in June will mean that MPs who have to shield or isolate themselves will not be able to participate in the business of the House or its committees even if they are capable of doing so. Their constituents will no longer be fully represented in Parliament.
