The Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster and Minister for the Cabinet Office gave evidence to the House of Commons Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee on 10 September setting out the Government’s intention to publish the Dunlop Review before the end of the year.

We are already in the process of implementing many of Lord Dunlop’s recommendations and we will set out more details on this alongside the publication of the report.

Whilst undertaking his Review, Lord Dunlop consulted widely before making his recommendations. This included meeting with politicians, civil servants, academics and others from all the nations of the United Kingdom.
