Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, if he will make it his policy to extend the The Local Government (Disqualification) Bill to cover Police and Crime Commissioners and Members of the House of Commons and House of Lords so they also can be disqualified from public office if they are convicted of similar offences as outlined in that Bill.

The Bill specifically seeks to update disqualification criteria for local government - councillors, elected Mayors and London Assembly members. There are separate arrangements for Police and Crime Commissioner elections and Parliamentary elections.
