Only PM to attend Commons Liaison Committee
The Prime Minister is the only PM to attend the Commons Liaison Committee.
The Prime Minister also noted the Commons Liaison Committee:

"...actually we do need to look at more innovative ways of having a proper public debate and that is the reason I agreed to come along to this forum because in the end I think we probably get as much, if not more, out of this type of more informal dialogue when you can go into issues in detail over a period of time than you could really with Prime Minister's Question Time which, let us be absolutely clear, of course it is a major part of holding the Prime Minister to account, but it is also a debating joust."
