There was an investigation after those reports in the press, but no impropriety was found. I am more than happy for the hon. Gentleman to meet my officials in the Department.

Andrew Selous
I am sorry to disappoint my hon. Friend, but I do not have that specific information. I will certainly write to him with it.
