HC Deb 27 April 2004 vol 420 c875W
Bob Spink

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what the requirements are on officials in his Department to declare current interests; and what register of interests is kept for his departmental officials. [164703]

Mr. Caplin

The Civil Service Management Code sets out the requirement for civil servants declaring any conflict of interest.

The Code is amplified by further MOD policy guidance to staff on personal conduct, outside interests and appointments, and the receipt of gifts, rewards and hospitality.
