Oxford Growth Commission: Public Appointments
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, pursuant to the Answer of 30 May 2025 to Question 53573 on Oxford Growth Commission: Public Appointments, if she will publish the Chair's declaration of interests.
Answered by Alex Norris
As set out in the answer to Question UIN 53573 on 28 May 2025, direct ministerial appointments such as the Chair of the OGC are not regulated public appointments and do not fall within the remit of the Governance Code on Public Appointments.
Interests are considered as part of due diligence checks before appointments are made, and the Department is satisfied the usual public law principles applicable to all ministerial decision-making are met by this appointment.
