Ministerial Positions
Proposed by Tommy Tomassino (Public) and Rayf Drayson (HoC)
This bill was proposed to allow the appointment of those who are not members of the House of Commons or House of Lords to ministerial positions (excluding MoFA, MoD, and MoF) that do not require HoC or HoL access. Those from outside HoL or HoC who take on these roles would also be granted access to the Cabinet. This was blocked by HoL and returned to HoL to be amended.
