Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Prime Minister, with reference to the letter from the Independent Adviser on Ministerial Interests of 23 December 2021, when he plans to present the Independent Adviser on with detailed proposals to ensure the highest standards are maintained; and whether he plans to publish those proposals.

The Independent Adviser's letter of 23 December concluded the correspondence, which was published soon after on 6 January. The correspondence sets out the timescales for further consideration and discussion of these matters. That work is underway and the Independent Adviser indicated that he would expect to be able to describe any changes to his role by the time of his next Annual Report in April.
