Working closely with parliamentarians, government, the media and the public to consider a range of issues relevant to parliamentary democracy, the programme has made many influential recommendations for parliamentary reform. The Society's publication, "The Fiscal Maze: Parliament, Government and Public Money", encouraged the House of Commons Liaison Committee to examine the issue of parliamentary scrutiny of government expenditure, and the research "A Year in the Life: From member of public to Member of Parliament" was quoted at length by the Modernisation Committee in its inquiry "Revitalising the Chamber: the role of the back bench Member".
