Adviser on Ministerial Interests

Debate between Baroness Winterton of Doncaster and John Penrose

Tuesday 21st June 2022 Commons Chamber

[John Penrose]

I will give way in a second.

This is an advisory post, and if the adviser’s advice is not followed, they may decide they want to resign if they are fed up, but they should not feel constitutionally required to do so. [Interruption.]

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Dame Rosie Winterton)]

Order. The hon. Gentleman needs to bring his remarks to a close, but we will take one intervention.
