Written Question
Lord Cameron of Chipping Norton
Tuesday 19th December 2023

Asked by: Mary Kelly Foy (Labour - City of Durham)

Question to the Leader of the House:

To ask the Leader of the House, if she will bring forward proposals to enable Members to directly scrutinise the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs.

Answered by Penny Mordaunt

The Procedure Committee is conducting an inquiry into this issue and it would not be appropriate for me to pre-empt the conclusions of that inquiry. The Government will respond to the Committee’s recommendations in the usual way once they have published their report.
