Staff of hon. and Rt. hon. Members

Motion Text

That this House recognises and celebrates the efforts of staff of hon. and Rt. hon. Members; applauds their efforts on behalf of constituents, particularly during the course of the covid-19 pandemic when workloads have increased enormously; specifically thanks caseworkers who have recently worked tirelessly to aid people stranded in Afghanistan in life-or-death circumstances; notes that their work often goes unappreciated behind the scenes in the offices of hon. and Rt. hon. Members; and believes staff need and deserve a pay rise.
