Select committee chairs

Support for select committees

We help select committees consider how to work effectively and maximise their impact.

We have developed tools to support select committees identify where they would like to have impact and how they can go about achieving it. We can also provide briefings on our research and reports where relevant to the committee.  

To discuss how we can support you, please get in touch at ifgacademy@instituteforgovernment.org.uk.
