Business question from Lord Watts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 October 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

We now know that the former Defence Secretary's private office and the permanent secretary knew that he was breaking the ministerial code. We are led to believe that the Cabinet Secretary and the Prime Minister did not know. May we have a statement on why they did not know and what action is going to be taken against the officials for not reporting this breach?
