Ian Corfield

Question

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Baroness Twycross on 10 September (HL665), whether they hold any Ministerial Code declaration, and if so in relation to which Minister, regarding the initial appointment of Ian Corfield as a civil servant in July, prior to his subsequent conversion to a direct ministerial appointment.

Answer

Ian Corfield was appointed on a short-term basis to carry out urgent work in support of the government’s International Investment Summit in October. A full recruitment process could not have been completed in the time available. He has since been appointed, unpaid, as a direct ministerial appointment. The donation was included in the Chancellor's Register of Member's Interests.
