Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether Lord Mandelson was involved with the China Audit.

I refer the Noble Baroness to the Government's statement (Official Report, vol. 782, cols. 359-374) and release of information on 11 March, providing an update on the response to the Humble Address. The Government is working to ensure that Parliament's instruction is met with the urgency and transparency that it deserves.
