Question to the HM Treasury:

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, with reference to the answer of 2 June 2026 to question HL105 on Lord Mandelson, for what reason Lord Mandelson’s visit to 11 Downing Street on 8 January 2025 was not recorded in transparency returns; and whether a civil servant was present at the meeting.

At the time of the meeting Peter Mandelson was a Parliamentarian and it was therefore not included in the return in line with the guidance on publishing Ministers’ meetings.
