§ 17. Mr. WinnickTo ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office how frequently he meets the media to discuss aspects of the Government's business. [63736]
§ Dr. Jack CunninghamThe role of the Minister for the Cabinet Office requires that the Government message is communicated at every opportunity. This means that I frequently accept broadcast interview requests from national and regional media outlets on a wide range of subjects connected with Government business.
I also brief media either individually by means of interviews or articles for publication and when appropriate hold press conferences to make announcements directly connected to the work of the Cabinet Office.
