House of Lords Appointments Commission

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will publish the framework agreement between his Department and the House of Lords Appointments Commission.

Answered by Georgia Gould

The House of Lords Appointments Commission (HOLAC) is an independent advisory non-departmental body of the Cabinet Office. As was the case when the honourable member was a Minister in the department, there is not currently a Framework Document between HOLAC and the Cabinet Office. As with all independent advisory bodies, the Government keeps its arrangements with HOLAC under review to ensure they reflect current best practice and standards of corporate governance.
