§ Mr. Cryerasked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will seek to amend the Standing Orders of the House of 18 July 1979 establishing the Select Committee on Members' Interests to require the regular publication and updating of a Register of Members' Interests.
§ Mr. PymI am not aware of any need to do so. The present Select Committee on Members' Interests stated in its second report that it had authorised the registrar to make copies of the Register of Members' Interests available for sale yearly.
The present published version is of the register as at 5 June 1980. The register itself, maintained from day to day, is available for public inspection in the registrar's office, and a copy, revised each week, is placed in the Library.
