Over the past week I have delivered thousands of contracts to voters across the Cynon Valley setting out the minimum level of service I think that constituents deserve to receive from their MP. I've signed the contract and if I'm lucky enough to be elected next Thursday I'll put a large version on the wall of my office to remind me and everyone else of exactly what I've promised. [The picture is of me signing the contract in Aberdare]The signed contract says that I will:
• Have a permanent, full-time and fully staffed office in the heart of the constituency
• Hold surgeries at least once every working week at varying locations around the constituency in order to provide advice and support for constituents
• Live full time in the Cynon Valley among the people I represent
• Set up a panel to scrutinise and approve or reject every claim that I make for expenses on the public purse. Members of opposing political parties and independent members of the public will be invited to join this panel and all claims will be published
• Use the parliamentary allowance provided to support the work of every Member of Parliament (almost £125,000 every year) principally to employ staff in the Cynon Valley rather than in London. These staff will be employed only for the purposes of supporting my constituency work rather for the purposes of political spin.
The response to the contract has been very positive indeed. If anyone hasn't had a copy yet and would like their own copy drop me a line on Email with your name and address and I'll make sure you get one through the door.
