The PSA Parliaments 2020 Annual Conference will be held on 12-13 November at the Council House, Birmingham.

PSA Parliaments will be contributing a great selection of panels at the PSA 2020 conference, serving to highlight the diverse nature of the research taking place across our network. The theme of the event will be ‘reimagining politics’ as the PSA reaches its 70^th year. This provides a great opportunity to showcase some cutting edge scholarship on a range of themes that are central to the understanding of parliaments and legislatures as they evolve in response to contemporary challenges. In total, we have seven panels running at the annual conference, which have been scheduled for Monday 6th and Tuesday 7th April. They cover the following topics:

• Parliamentary Questions: Adversarialism and Constituency Links
• Perspectives on Transparency
• Comparing Parliamentary Perspectives in the UK
• Parliamentary Roles
• Do MPs care about their publics?
• Scrutiny and Legislation
• The Changing Face of Parliament

Full details of the panels can be seen on our website. If you are presenting a paper on one of our panels, or chairing a panel, please make sure that you register for the conference through Ex Ordo by Monday 17th February.
