The Hotlines List contains contacts for government departments, government bodies and many other useful organisation.  Only those who have an account on their relevant parliamentary network will be able to access the list.  We can not share this list with anyone not on a parliamentary network.

These hotline numbers are for the use of MPs, MSPs, Members of the Senedd and their staff ONLY. DO NOT disclose these numbers to members of the public or to staff in other agencies or the facility may be withdrawn.

IMPORTANT: Are you using the correct hotlines list?

Please don’t download or print out the whole list and keep it on your desk, as you risk using out-of-date information – as well as using up an enormous amount of paper – it’s over 200 pages long!  The list is updated frequently, sometimes several times a day, so please make sure you are using the most recent version   If you bookmark it, you’ll always be using the correct one.

Whilst MPs have certain Parliamentary privileges in relation to the authority to act for their constituents, this is not always extended to Members of the Scottish Parliament, or Members of the Senedd, so they must obtain written consent from their constituents.  In any case, it is good practice for all representatives, including Members of the UK Parliament, to obtain written consent whenever possible, in order to prevent any potential delays.

The list is updated when there are changes and represents the latest information we have.  If you are an organisation which would like to be added to the list please let us know, using the website’s Feedback Form.

We have been asked by one or two agencies to encourage MPs, MSs and their staff to be sure to use these hotline numbers and NOT the numbers available for the general public. Here’s what they say: “Some Members and their staff continue to use the public enquiry line which means we are not always able to give the prompt reply that both they and we would like to happen.”
