Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to the answer of 28 April 2026 to Question 128726 on Lord Mandelson, who the Government Security Group review will report to; what its terms of reference are; and whether a report will be laid before Parliament.

The review conducted by the Government Security Group into whether any security concerns were raised during Peter Mandelson’s tenure as HMA Washington will be an internal review only. This is to enable thorough examination of any national security issues. As it is an internal review, the Terms of Reference will not be published. The Prime Minister and the Cabinet Secretary will receive the final report.
