Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many meetings (a) he, (b) Ministers in his Department and (c) officials in his Department have had with Barclays Bank in 2014 to date; and if he will make a statement.

Treasury Ministers and officials have meetings with a wide range of organisations and individuals in the public and private sectors as part of the process of policy development and delivery. As was the case with previous Administrations, it is not the Government's practice to provide details of all such meetings. However, a list of meetings with external stakeholders is published on the Treasury website. This list can be found at:
