“While other democracies have lifted the lid on lobbying,
here in the UK only a tiny fraction of all lobbying activity
is publicly declared. This report demonstrates how very
practical comprehensive registers of lobbying have proven
to be elsewhere. It’s time we made it happen here.”
Susan Hawley, Executive Director, Spotlight on Corruption
“It is well past time that Westminster got serious about
bringing lobbying out of the shadows. It should be a source
of major political embarrassment that Westminster lags all
its major democratic allies on lobbying transparency. This
important report shows not only why Westminster must clean
up lobbying transparency but also how it can.”
