Text
The Member raises an important question that is also topical, given what we have seen in the media recently, particularly about the abuse of Members. Indeed, our constituency workers also suffer that. Inspire Workplace Services is an independent organisation that specialises in providing a range of welfare services across the public sector. The services include an independent, confidential counselling service, which includes a 24-hour, 354-day-a-year advice helpline and up to six face-to-face counselling sessions per person. It also involves a telephone counselling service, mediation and conflict coaching, therapeutic support, well-being absence management support and coaching. Hopefully, the Member will agree that the Commission has provided a wide range of options for Members.
