What your MP can do for you
The House of Commons is made up of 646 Members of Parliament (MPs) each representing one constituency. As a matter of convention MPs usually only deal with issues raised by their own constituents and not with issues raised by constituents of other MPs. You can find out who your MP is via the Constituency Locata. MPs are there to help with matters that Parliament and central government are responsible for.
Such as:
Tax problems involving the Inland Revenue and Customs and Excise Departments
Problems dealt with by the Department of Health such as hospitals and the National Health Service
Problems dealt with by the Department for Work and Pensions such as benefits, pensions and national insurance
Problems dealt with by the Home office such as immigration and matters such as school closures and grants which are dealt with by the Department for Education and Skills
MPs do not generally get involved with private disputes between neighbours and families. Neither do they interfere with decisions made by the court or intervene in private contracts.
Your locally elected North Warickshire and Bedworth borough and county councillors are also there to help you with local council matters.
I am always happy to assist my constituents. My office successfully deals with hundreds of cases a year. As every case is different, unfortunately there are some occasions when I cannot help but I will try to advise you as best as I can.
