Answered by Stephen Doughty
I refer the Hon Member to the response on 10 June to Question 5980. In addition, the Hon Member references the Part of a Return to an Address of the Honourable the House of Commons dated 4 February 2026 relating to the appointment of Lord Mandelson as HM Ambassador to Washington, Volume II Part I, HC2-I, published on 1 June 2026, Page 334, which notes that Peter Mandelson attended the Hill and Valley Forum on 2 May 2025 and that Louis Mosley was also scheduled to attend that large event. Further to Lord Mandelson's letter to the Defence Secretary on 26 February 2025 on page 309, it is a matter of public record that Peter Mandelson accompanied the Prime Minister on his visit to Palantir's Washington DC office on 27 February 2025.
