A Meeting to launch Tom Clarke MP's private member's bill: The International Development (Reporting and Transparency) Bill

This event discusses a bill whose origins lie in Goal 8 of the Millennium Development Goals. The Bill gives developed countries the responsibility to ensure the success of the first seven goals.  The UK has a responsibility to ensure that those goals are fulfilled.  The bill is a more formal way of taking the goals and putting them into a logical framework under which the UK government can work.
