Written Question
Honours: Disclosure of Information
Wednesday 14th December 2016

Asked by: Mary Glindon (Labour - Newcastle upon Tyne East and Wallsend)

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, when he plans to report on the inquiry into the leak of the Prime Minister's Resignation Honours list.

Answered by Ben Gummer

We take any ‘leaking’ of official information very seriously as it is damaging and corrosive to good government. However it has been the policy of successive administrations not to normally comment on the formulation, operation or the outcome of these investigations.
