Helping our MPs learn

There are many reasons why MPs should have more and better quality support staff - MPs are supposed to serve the interests of their constituency by ensuring that the laws that get passed are good for them in particular and for the nation at large. Without adequate support staff who they can rely on for information and advice on laws, policies and upcoming legislations, MPs would have a hard time even understanding proposed legislation, much less proposing their own.
