	Resignation From The British House Of Commons Members of Parliament (MPs) sitting in the House of Commons in the United Kingdom are not permitted to resign their seats. To circumvent this prohibition, MPs who wish to step down are instead appointed to an "office of profit under the Crown", which disqualifies them from sitting in Parliament. For this purpose, a legal fiction is maintained where two unpaid offices are considered to be offices of profit: Steward and Bailiff of the Chiltern Hundreds, and Steward and Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead. Although the House of Commons Disqualification Act 1975 lists hundreds of offices that are disqualifying, it is rare for an MP to be nominated to a legitimate office of profit; no MP lost his or her seat by being appointed to an actual office between 1981, when Thomas Williams became a judge, and 2022, when Rosie Cooper became the chair of an NHS foundation trust.
