Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether future meetings between Ministers and the right hon. Member for Tatton will be required to be published in the Departments' transparency data concerning meetings with proprietors, editors and media executives after his appointment as editor of the London Evening Standard; and whether any such meetings will be exempt from declaration in such transparency data.

All meetings between Ministers and newspapers and other media proprietors, editors and senior executives held in an official, social and political capacity are (and will continue to be) published on a quarterly basis.
