Answer from Hansard

The Parliamentary Secretary, Cabinet Office (Mark Ferguson)

I am grateful to the commission for its thorough work, which we are considering carefully. We know that more can be done on transparency around lobbying and will present our response to Parliament in due course. There is a great deal of interest in this—understandably so—and we are determined to get it right.
