Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 30 March 2017 to Question 62917, for what reason the meeting of 11 February between David Cameron and Lord Rothermere was omitted from the original record on gov.uk.

We have taken the opportunity to review the returns, and have updated the records on GOV.UK to ensure full transparency on meetings with senior media executives.

This was simply an administrative oversight by diary officials. This was an informal occasion in a social setting, and not a formal government meeting, it was not recorded on the return by accident.
