Lord Brownlow of Shurlock Row Excerpts

Thursday 24th October 2024 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)]

No, there are not.

[Lord Brownlow of Shurlock Row (Con)]

My Lords, earlier on, the Minister may have misspoken in her answer to my noble friend Lord Sandhurst’s question. She said that Sue Gray had been appointed as an envoy and would be appointed as an envoy. Can the Minister confirm which is the case, and whether Sue Gray will be at the next meeting of the Council of the Nations and Regions?

[Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)]

I am sorry if I misled the House; that was not my intention. Sue Gray has been appointed. I am not sure of her start date—I am not in charge of HR for the Government.
