Details of Ministerial meetings with external organisations are published on GOV.UK.

Mr Desmond attended an official business reception in Downing Street in September 2019 alongside a wide range of business representatives.

Otherwise, such requested information would not be centrally collated or held. Notwithstanding, as has been previously noted in Parliament, neither the Prime Minister nor No 10 Downing Street has had any contact with Mr Desmond or his representatives in relation to the Westferry planning application or appeal.
