§ Q8. Mr. Milneasked the Minister if he will give instructions to Ministers and officials of Departments of Her Majesty's Government that they should inform Members seeking interviews that such interviews will not be given without a previous declaration of their interests in a manner similar to the conventional practice in the House of Commons.
§ The Prime Minister:I think that this is a matter for the House rather than for instructions by me. The report of the Select Committee on the Declaration of Members' Interests is now being considered by my right hon. Friend the Leader of the House.
