Chamber and committees

Submit your views

When a committee launches an inquiry, or starts looking at a Bill, they ask the public to submit their views. This is called a "call for views".

A call for views:

  • aims to help the committee understand the reasons people have for either supporting or opposing an issue
  • will not establish whether more people support or oppose an issue

All committees can carry out inquiries into any subject in their remits (area of responsibility).

You can search for any calls for views run by a committee since the start of the current session (May 2021).  Filter by individual committee, or search by the title of a call for views.
