Parliamentary Questions and EDMs

Parliamentary Questions are a way for MPs to get information and to hold the Government to account. They oblige Ministers to defend and explain policy decisions and actions of their departments. MPs can either put them forward in oral form in the House or in written form.

Early Day Motions are motions by a small group of MPs on subjects they consider to be important and for which they would like to rally support. They are not normally debated in the House but can be an influential indicator of parliamentary opinion.
