Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether Inter Mediate is on the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme register.

It would not be appropriate to comment on whether specific entities have registered under the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme.

Certain information registered under the scheme is published on the public Foreign Influence Registration Scheme register, where the registration relates to political influence activities and where no exception to publication applies. Registrations under the enhanced tier are not published unless they relate to political influence activities, and there are circumstances in which registration details will not be made public, for example where publication could create a risk to the safety or interests of the United Kingdom.

The Government does not intend to provide details of registrations beyond those that appear on the public register, as doing so could identify information not intended to be published and undermine the scheme’s objectives.

However, the Government will be publishing an annual report on the operation of the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme, which will include, among other things, the number of registrations under both tiers, the number of information notices issued, and the number of persons charged with or convicted of offences under the scheme. The first report will be published as soon as practicable after 30 June 2026.
