This session examined the importance of members maintaining high ethical standards; committing to transparency and integrity; and adhering to rules of conduct.
In her presentation, Ms. Shanahan discussed the importance of codes of conduct for Parliamentarians and how they can contribute to building and maintaining public trust. She provided examples of policies governing the behaviour of parliamentarians in Canada, including sexual harassment policies and rules in place in the House of Commons. Ms. Shanahan noted that parliamentarians and their staff can lead by example by modelling respectful workplace behaviour and implementing initiatives to foster a healthy, safe, and respectful work culture in their individual offices.
