Daniel Greenberg, the parliamentary standards commissioner, has launched an inquiry into the Reform leader over a ‘registration of interest’
Nigel Farage is being investigated by Parliament’s standards watchdog, it has been confirmed.
Daniel Greenberg, the parliamentary standards commissioner, has launched an inquiry into the Reform leader over an apparent “registration of interest” breach.
It is unclear what the allegation is. It concerns a potential breach of Rule 5 of the MPs’ code of conduct – which requires MPs to declare changes to their interests within 28 days.
In March the Good Law Project sent a formal complaint to the commissioner over Mr Farage’s alleged failure to declare advice from a US PR firm.
The Mirror has contacted Reform UK for comment. The controversial party leader told The Independent it was in relation to a complaint by a member of the House of Lords.
He told the newspaper: “It is not to do with any undeclared income”.
