Committees

Health and Wellbeing

Inquiry

This inquiry will look into the health and wellbeing services available to those working in Parliament - exploring how existing services can be better communicated and supported, and identifying where some health and wellbeing needs are still not being met.

It will:

  • Identify and investigate what further physical and mental health and wellbeing services could be provided on the Parliamentary Estate to support the working lives of MPs, MP’s staff and staff of the House; 
  • Consider where there are short-term improvements to the working environment and building facilities that would support health and wellbeing; 
  • Consider whether the guidance should be relaxed for some aspects of House business

Read the Terms of Reference for more detail on the inquiry.
