- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, whether he plans to establish an MPs' hotline for the Defence Business Services.
- Answer
-
There are no plans to establish a hotline for Members of Parliament to contact Defence Business Services officials.
Ministers are accountable for the policies, decisions and actions of their Departments. Parliamentarians have direct access to Ministers, and any information they require from the Department should be provided by Ministers.
This guidance is intended to ensure that only accurate and releasable information is provided to Parliament and that Ministers can assure themselves of that before it is released.
