Infographic: An MP's guide to organising a constituency office

There are about 350 Constituency Offices around the country where members of the public can approach elected representatives (Members of Parliament) and ask for help.The parliamentary programme assigns every Monday during session and several weeks during the year for MPs to concentrate on constituency work. During constituency periods MPs and MPLs have a duty to be available to the public, help solve problems, and report back to their constituents on what is happening in Parliament. Fulfilling these duties is made easier for the MP and the community they are responsible for, if there is a base at which the two can meet.

People's Assembly has created an infographic that offers a 'how-to' guide for MPs on the measures that could be taken to organise and run an effective constituency office.
