Wright Committee

The Wright Committee was a group formed in the UK Parliament in 2009 to improve how parliamentary committees operate. Its goal was to make committees more effective in scrutinizing government actions, holding inquiries, and influencing policy. The committee recommended changes like giving committees more power to summon witnesses, produce detailed reports, and collaborate across different parliamentary groups. Essentially, it aimed to strengthen parliamentary oversight, making it more transparent and responsive to public concerns, ensuring Parliament functions more efficiently and effectively in holding the government accountable.
