Leading Labour's lobbying overhaul
In September 2014 Nandy was involved in helping to oversee the Labour Party's plans to turn the Government’s limited lobbying register into something far bigger. Labour has already been clear that it will broaden out the lobbying register from the Government’s narrow focus on ‘consultant lobbyists’. They hope to add many more names and extra details on to the register so that lobbying transparency will be far more extensive. [3]
Some have seen this plan as a signal that Labour is keen to crack down on lobbyists, but Nandy suggests otherwise, saying that: 'I think it is fair to say that the vast majority of lobbyists are engaged in perfectly legitimate activity'. [3]
Nandy hopes to 'lead Labour down the road to lobbying transparency', saying 'why wouldn’t we make this information available in a 21st century democracy?'. Nandy and the Labour party feel that it is incredibly important to try and put public confidence back into the activity of lobbying and the industry. [3]
