📖 Registers of Interests

Representatives in the UK's Parliaments need to declare financial interests (such as employment, donations, and gifts) that could be considered by others to influence their judgement or actions.

As part of our WhoFundsThem project, we have written about how the rules on financial interests can be improved.

You can read more about the different kind of data we hold about financial interests, including spreadsheet downloads.
