Ministerial Powers
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether any ministerial directions have been issued since 6 July 2024.
Answered by Darren Jones
Details of all published Ministerial Directions can be found on the GOV.UK website [1] .
There have been no Ministerial directions published since 6 July 2024.
Information on confidential Ministerial Directions is not published. As set out in Managing Public Money, where confidentiality is required, the accounting officer will share the direction request and the direction itself with the chairs of the Committee of Public Accounts and the relevant departmental select committee, along with an explanation of the reasons for requiring confidentiality, and when they expect the need for confidentiality to fall away and publication to take place.
