Lord Mandelson Humble Address: Government Response

Contribution

The Government have today laid the second tranche of documents. These were laid before the House in advance of this Statement and are now on GOV.UK for the public to see. The documents we are publishing today comprise one of the largest government publications ever laid before the House. This disclosure process has been wide-ranging, costing the Cabinet Office alone over £1 million. As the House knows, this was an official-led process, with judgments made by senior officials, and I am grateful for the careful work that they have undertaken right up until today’s publication.
