The prime minister is under investigation for allegedly failing to declare an interest when first asked.
However, the ministerial register of interests is governed by the ministerial code - which does require the declaration of"interests of the minister's spouse or partner and close family which might be thought to give rise to a conflict". Last year the government defended the separation of the registers on the basis they reflected"the underlying constitutional principle of the separation of powers", adding "gifts given to ministers in their ministerial capacity are the property of the Crown, not the individual".
The party's deputy leader, Angela Rayner, accused ministers of leaving a"transparency black hole" by not publishing the register of ministers' interests, . "While this Prime Minister fails to deliver the integrity he promised and preserves the rotten standards regime he inherited as the Tories resist tighter rules, Labour has a plan to clean up politics with an Independent Ethics and Integrity Commission to restore standards in public life."The Liberal Democrats have reacted to the news that the prime minister is under investigation by the parliamentary standards commissioner.
The prime minister was being questioned about his government's agenda in the wake of the Budget two weeks previously.
