2022, the Institute for Government and the Bennett Institute for Public Policy launched a <a href="https://www.bennettinstitute.cam.ac.uk/research/research-projects/uk-constitution/">Review of the UK Constitution</a> to assess the current functioning of the UK constitution with the aim of proposing practical, innovative and robust ideas for reform. In order to understand the different constitutional perspectives from each part of the UK, between October 2022 and February 2023 we hosted four roundtables across the UK on the constitution. Participants at these roundtables included academics, current and former civil servants, journalists, former politicians and members of the private sector, who came together to discuss issues of governance, the constitution and Westminster’s relationship with the rest of the UK.</p> <p>The first roundtable was held in Belfast in October 2022 in partnership with the Senator George J. Mitchell Institute for Global Peace at Queen’s University Belfast. </p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Delivering good government in Northern Ireland.<a href="https://www.bennettinstitute.cam.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/IfG-Bennett-Belfast-roundtable.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> <em>Summary of a private roundtable</em></a></li> </ul> <p>The second roundtable was held in Edinburgh in November 2022 in partnership with the Royal Society of Edinburgh</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>How well does the Westminster system and the constitution work for Scotland?<a href="https://www.bennettinstitute.cam.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/IfG-Bennett-Edinburgh-roundtable.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> <em>Summary of a private roundtable</em></a></li> </ul> <p>The third roundtable was held in Newcastle in November 2022 with the Centre for Urban and Regional Development Studies</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>How can we improve England’s governance structures?
