Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether his Department has had discussions with Global Counsel on responding to the Humble Address on Lord Mandelson.

I refer the Hon Member to the Government’s statement and release of information on 1st June, providing an update on the response to the Humble Address. The documents published in the first and second tranches contain the entirety of the documents the Government has available for disclosure, except those being withheld at the request of the Metropolitan police.

All government departments, ministers and relevant individuals were instructed to retain and provide to the Cabinet Office all information they hold that fell in scope of the Humble Address motion.
