Dramas at Westminster
Based on unprecedented access to the UK Parliament, this book challenges how we understand and think about accountability between government and Parliament.

On 20 March 2013 the House agreed changes to Standing Orders Nos. 144 and 152D that require the Members Estimate Committee to agree the Estimate for the House of Commons Members before it is laid by HM Treasury, and require the Finance and Services Committee to prepare that Estimate with the assistance of the Accounting Officer (the Clerk of the House).

This is the second year that the Committee has published such a report. On 8 November 2012 the House of Commons debated a motion to endorse the draft Administration Estimate for 2013/14, and it is the intention of the Committee to seek an opportunity for a similar debate this year
