Scott Colvin on Select Committees
from Tory Radio · host Jonathan Sheppard
We took the opportunity to talk to Scott Colvin, partner at Finsbury who has been an adviser to industry and politicians alike, and more recently has published his book, "How to survive a Select Committee" where he offers both advice and guidance about the process of appearing in front of a parliamentary Select Committee. With a large Government majority meaning the opportunity for career advancement though the ministerial ranks may be not as forthcoming for some, Select Committees not only offer a change for new MPs to make a name for themselves, but may lead to their influence in holding Government to account only increasing.
