Nadine Dorries - Standards and Privileges Committee Contents


3.  Letter to Mr Michael Barnbrook from the Commissioner, 30 June 2009

Thank you for your letter of 26 June asking to register a formal complaint against Ms Nadine Dorries MP.

Your letter says that you have not submitted evidence in relation to your complaint because you were not aware that Ms Dorries has repudiated the comments attributed to her in the Daily Telegraph article from 26 June. As you know, however, I am required to consider whether the complainant has provided me with sufficient evidence to justify at least a preliminary inquiry into whether the Member has breached the rules. To meet that requirement, you do need to submit the evidence which supports your complaint. Therefore, if you would like me to consider instituting an inquiry into your complaint, could you let me have the evidence on which you would like to rely and an explanation of how you believe Ms Dorries has breached the rules of the House?

30 June 2010
