PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
CONDUCT OF THE PRIME MINISTER (12 January 1999)

Motion Details

That this House notes with concern that the Right honourable Member for Hartlepool was allowed to represent the Prime Minister at a meeting with a Minister from Germany, despite his recent resignation caused by his failure to disclose a serious conflict of interest between his role as Secretary of State and as a debtor of the former Paymaster-General; further notes the Prime Minister's alleged commitment to high standards in Government; and is astonished by his decision to allow the United Kingdom to be represented by a disgraced ex-Minister.
