Westminster Hall Sittings
The question
To ask the Leader of the House, what formal mechanisms exist to monitor whether undertakings given by Ministers during Westminster Hall debates are fulfilled.
Answered by Leader of the House
Ministers have a duty to Parliament to account, and be held to account, for the policies, decisions and actions of their departments. Westminster Hall debates are a valuable opportunity for Members to debate subjects for which the Government is responsible. It is a matter for individual departments and Ministers to ensure that commitments during these debates are monitored and fulfilled.
