However, writing to the party does not necessarily indicate that any transaction raises any public interest concerns.</p><p>These decisions are always made in a quasi judicial capacity by the Secretary of State.<strong><br></strong></p> answering member constituency Kenilworth and Southam answering member printed Jeremy Wright question first answered 13/02/2019 17:59:05 answering member 1560 label Biography information for Sir Jeremy Wright
