Osmotherly Rules
The Osmotherly Rules, named for their author, a civil servant in the Machinery of Government Division of the British Cabinet Office named E.B.C. Osmotherly, are a set of internal guidelines specifying how government departments should provide evidence to Parliamentary select committees. Covering procedures for both the House of Lords and the House of Commons, it has "no formal Parliamentary standing or approval, nor does it claim to have."
==History==
Although they were first formally issued in May 1980, a similar document had been circulating throughout the 1970s. They were "prepared entirely for use within Government"〔Memorandum of Guidance for Civil Servants Appearing before Select Committees (8664 )〕 and had no official status in Parliament. An early edition of the Rules was caught up in the Westland affair, a political scandal in which the ministers were worried that officials being questioned by committees about individual conduct could be harmful; they were criticised as "unduly restrictive".〔
The current edition dates from July 2005, and was issued by the Office of the Leader of the House of Commons (jointly with the Cabinet Office) under the name of ''Departmental Evidence and Responses to Select Committees''.〔 It was described by the Commons Liaison Committee as "modest".
