Special Advisers: Corporate Hospitality
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what guidance his Department has provided to special advisers on the definition of personal hospitality.
Answered by Anna Turley
The Code of Conduct for Special Advisers requires special advisers to declare details of gifts and hospitality received in accordance with the rules set out in their departmental staff handbooks. The Special Advisers’ Transparency Guidance available on GOV.UK provides further details of requirements for reporting of gifts, hospitality and meetings with senior media figures.
