Public Appointments: Political Impartiality
Asked by: Baroness Finn (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 23rd December 2025

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what changes have been made to the collection of political activity data in relation to regulated public appointments since the public data appointments reporting year 2024–25.

Answered by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

This was not a decision taken by ministers. The Public Appointments Data Report 2024-25 did not include information on the political activity of public appointees due to the transition to the public appointments digital service in 2023.

The Commissioner for Public Appointments Annual Report 2024-25 was published on 17 December. For appointments made during the reporting period, the report provides the percentage of appointees who declared political activity. It does not provide a breakdown of political activity by party for the reason stated above.

David Kogan
Asked by: Baroness Finn (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 6th January 2026

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the oral evidence by David Kogan to the House of Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee on 7 May and his subsequent appointment as the Chair of the Independent Football Regulator, why the public appointments website Independent Football Regulator x4 Non-Executive Board Members does not list the donations he stated he made to (1) Lisa Nandy, and (2) Sir Keir Starmer.

Answered by Baroness Twycross - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

Section 9.5 of the Governance Code on Public Appointments sets out the reporting requirements for panel members of public appointment campaigns. I can confirm that the published appointment details for the Independent Football Regulator x4 Non-Executive Board Members is compliant with the Governance Code.
