INTRODUCTION Ministerial Code Under the terms of the Ministerial Code, Ministers must ensure that no conflict arises, or could reasonably be perceived to arise, between their Ministerial position and their private interests, financial or otherwise. On appointment to each new office, Ministers must provide their Permanent Secretary with a list, in writing, of all relevant interests known to them, which might be thought to give rise to a conflict. Individual declarations, and a note of any action taken in respect of individual interests, are then passed to the Cabinet Office Propriety and Ethics team and the Independent Adviser on Ministers’ Interests to confirm they are content with the action taken or to provide further advice as appropriate. The List being published today records the position at the end of this process. The Independent Adviser has been consulted in the preparation of the List, has scrutinised the declarations made, and is satisfied that measures have been put in place, where necessary, to avoid a conflict of interest. Scope of the List As a Member of one or other House of Parliament, Ministers are already bound by the rules of the relevant House. It is not the purpose of the List of Ministers’ Interests to duplicate the separate registers or other information on Members’ Interests published by the two Houses, or information published separately by the Electoral Commission. It is a list of interests relevant to Ministers’ ministerial responsibilities, not their parliamentary responsibilities. Therefore, the List of Ministers’ Interests needs to be read alongside the Parliamentary Registers and relevant information published by the Electoral Commission. However, because Ministers wield executive authority, the obligation on Ministers to disclose their relevant private interests goes beyond that required of Members of Parliament generally. The List contains relevant ministerial interests current at the date of publication. Where a Minister has disposed of a relevant interest, or where they did so before taking up Ministerial office, it is not included in the List. The List sets out interests currently held by Ministers, or their close family members, which are additional to those already disclosed in the Parliamentary Registers and which are, or might reasonably be perceived to be, directly relevant to a Minister’s ministerial responsibilities. It also provides details of charities where a Minister is a trustee or patron. It does not include membership of charities unless the charity involved is directly relevant to a Minister’s departmental responsibilities. In addition, Ministers may have other associations with charities or non-public organisations, for example, as constituency MPs. Such associations may be historic, lapsed or the Minister may not be actively involved. Nor is the List an account of all the interests or financial arrangements held by a Minister or members of their close family. If it were, it would involve unjustifiable intrusion into the private affairs not only of Ministers, but of their close family. Rather it is a list of any such interests, which are, or might reasonably be perceived to be, directly relevant to that particular Minister’s public duties. Categories of interest disclosed On appointment, Ministers are asked to notify their relevant interests in a number of categories. 1. Financial interests
3
The List includes directly relevant interests held by a Minister. It is not therefore a list of all financial interests including all investments or loans held by a Minister. It indicates where financial interests are held in a blind trust or similar blind management arrangement. 2. Directorships and shareholdings Shareholdings are not listed where they are de minimis in nature. 3. Investment property In line with the Registers of Interests in the two Houses of Parliament, property owned and/or occupied by Ministers for their own use is not included in the List. 4. Public Appointments 5. Charities and non-public organisations In addition to those listed, Ministers may have other associations not relevant to their Ministerial Interests with charities or non-public organisations, for example, as constituency MPs. Such associations may be historic, lapsed or the Minister may not be actively involved. 6. Any other relevant interests 7. Relevant interests of spouse, partner or close family member 8. Compliance with legal obligations Ministers are asked to confirm that they have observed their overarching duty to comply with the law.
