Upton St. Leonards, Bisley and Painswick

Alongside me, as your MP, there are a number of other elected officials that are able to provide help and support.

You may find it useful to look at the Where I Live page on the County Council's website to find out who your local councillor is.

In many cases, they will be better placed than I am to provide support and information on matters relating to the County Council and the District Council such as planning. If you enter your post code the page will provide a range of information on who your local councillor is, where the nearest medical facilities are and lots more.

Neil meets Cabinet Office minister in Painswick

21 November 2011 at 12:30

During this last weekend, Neil Carmichael met with a Government Minister and a fellow Member of Parliament from Gloucestershire to discuss mutual interests and concerns.

Mark Harper - the Member of Parliament for the Forest of Dean, serves as a Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State at the Cabinet Office with responsibility and oversight for political and constitutional reform, alongside Baroness Warsi, Nick Hurd, Nick Clegg, Oliver Letwin, Francis Maude, and by convention, the Prime Minister.

As such, matters such as the regulation of lobbyists and the equalising of constituency electorates across the country, both of which are topics of great concern, fall within Mark Harper's portfolio.
