Foreign Influence Registration Scheme

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether recipients of the U.S Embassy to the United Kingdom's grant scheme entitled Liberty Under Law: The Shared Anglo-American Tradition have registered with the foreign influence registration scheme.

Answered by Home Office

It would not be appropriate to comment on whether specific entities have registered under the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme.

Registrations submitted which relate to political influence activities are available for view on the public register, providing that no “exception to publication” applies. The Government will be publishing an annual report on the operation of the Foreign Influence Registration Scheme, which will include, among other things, the number of registrations under both tiers, the number of information notices issued, and the number of persons charged with or convicted of offences under the scheme. The first report will be published as soon as possible.
