CONDUCT OF THE PRIME MINISTER

Early day motion 159, tabled 12 January 1999 by Julie Kirkbride (Conservative). Signed by 18 members.

That this House notes with concern that the Right honourable Member for Hartlepool was allowed to represent the Prime Minister at a meeting with a Minister from Germany, despite his recent resignation caused by his failure to disclose a serious conflict of interest between his role as Secretary of State and as a debtor of the former Paymaster-General; further notes the Prime Minister's alleged commitment to high standards in Government; and is astonished by his decision to allow the United Kingdom to be represented by a disgraced ex-Minister.

Signatures by party: Conservative 18.
