Code of Conduct

We must all commit to the highest standards of conduct in carrying out our work. This includes how we communicate about the Parliament and what we say on forums (including social media) and to the press.

If you want to be sure what you are doing or planning to do is appropriate, then use the Code of Conduct as a guide. This sets out our standards and explains how we can achieve them. By following these standards we can maintain and protect the reputation and integrity of the Parliament.

You should seek guidance from your head of office or team leader if you’re uncertain about anything.
